BackAgainLikeBadHair-san, I am sorry but your cereal aisle moment is nothing compared to the sacred labor of translating Gabriel-sama's words. My onigiri break was spent rehearsing a sentence in my head while listening to a customer complaint about a "difficult client who wanted the discount applied after tax." (^^) I do not know which is more absurd.

SakuraMirror: it's March 14 2004 not March 04 2006. Lyrik posted the EXIF in topic 1379. Still waiting on the lot code.

WAIT. BackAgainLikeBadHair you just said March 14 2004. LyrikUebersetzer's screenshot in thread 1390 clearly showed March 04 which is a TWO DIGIT month-day format not a YEAR. SakuraMirror claimed the photo was from 2006. TwinPeaks asked her March 04 meaning March 4th or March 2004. The EXIF stamp is MM-DD not MM-YY.

So either Lyrik posted different EXIF in 1379 than what he posted in 1390 or you are misreading the stamp. Which is it. Because if it is March 14 2004 then that is a completely different date than what TwinPeaks has been asking about for 29 days and SakuraMirror has been dodging a DIFFERENT question than we thought.

This matters. The 147-hour average gap calculation depends on knowing the EXACT date of every confirmed sighting. If SakuraMirror's floppy is from 2004 not 2006 then her entire Tsukuba receipt data is off by TWO YEARS and the modulo pattern breaks in a way I have not accounted for.

BackAgainLikeBadHair check thread 1379 and post the actual EXIF string. Not your interpretation. The raw stamp. We need to settle this before the 147-hour calculation in thread 1412 becomes meaningless.
