go live in a cave without any technology. One thing is that you don't like it, and that would be your personal opinion... But there is smart people with understanding of physics and maths that have made your life as comfortable as it is today, so sitting on your computer (made by who?) calling it rubbish is...rubbish...

@MrSilvestris try Khan academy if you want to educate yourself further in topic x. its a free and damn vast collection of lessons. i myself am a.. well, a simpleton to be honest, but i've read that site for ages and now i actually understand something from something. internet is awesome :D

I think its got to do with the sequence between "sign" , "white part" and "Black part".

Example: For red : after "black" comes "the Sign" and then comes "White"(In Time).(Notice the sign and colors also has differant time-lengths.)

So when turning clockwise we get red in the middle of the board , but if we turn anti-clockwise we get the sequence for Red in the outherside.

Sorry if any of the use Units are wrong,... I'm only starting in learning.

@myemailisgrant he keeps the plater pancil perpendicolar to the blackboart so because of the attrition between the two materials he gets this dotted lines
