    Taking a triangle and making it into a tri-force = 5 times as many triangles, not 3.

    Correct. 1 * 5 = 5. Which is also equivalent to 1*3+2, though simpler.

    Then taking that and making it into further ti-forces is x3+2

    Correct.

    You’ve failed your math assignment.

    Correct. The above image is not 3x as many triangles as the previous post.

    So once again, which part of this is wrong?

    What a fucked up way to explain a simple thing, while making yourself wrong at the same time…

    Just because I typed it differently than you would have doesn’t make the math suddenly wrong. I never said I was defining rules. Nor trying to narrow them down to a single rule. That was entirely your initiative.

    I was simply showing how far away from “x3” it was; which in the first instance “x5” illustrates that point better.

      Saying they are off by a factor of 2x is way to make something seem worse than it actually is, it’s off by 2 units… not 2 factors…

      I’m sorry you can’t explain things properly, and make them more complicated than they have to be, while making yourself wrong at the same time…
