My Number is WAYYY larger [game]

[rutabaga]

what about, Ababa's T function. T[n] = the smallest prime number you cannot make by adding 2 smaller primes, below 2n.
T[2]= 11, T[3] = ...something,
T[T[2]] is probably higher than 10 billion,
T_3[2] = probably higher than 10^^3
T_10[2] is probably higher than 10^^^2
now one above that is T_T[2][2], which i'm gonna call T_w[2], cuz its T[2] as the iteration amount
T_w+n[2] = T_T_n-1[2][2]
T_w2[2] = T_T_T_n-1[2][2][2]
now if you do this T[n] times you get T_w^2[2]
you you can keep doing this infinitely...until you get T_e0[2]
you can swap e0 for any ordinal, and my number is T_φ(10,0)[2], where φ(10,0) is Veblen's function, a way of making large ordinals.

correct me if i'm wrong, but since that involves prime numbers, it should be uncomputable.

Yeah and also it's a function repeated an infinite amount of times. Take the function f(x) = 2^x for instance, if you do f(f(f(...f(x)...))) but there's an infinite amount of f's, then thats 2^^infinity, which is infinity. 2^x grows MUCH slower than T[n], so I don't see why Blueman's number is even finite.

Edit 1: Hey just realized I started a new page with this. I still have the largest finite number on this thread so anyone else please feel free to post your own here

My starting number is 0.0006

0.0006?Then, the golden ratio (sqrt(5)-1)/2 (≈0.618034)

HEY. >:( undo that
redo with og rules: my number is 3^^3

Rules [just as a reminder]:
A: NO SALAD NUMBERS! [ie no rayo's number, no TREE[TREE[TRREE[G[64]], no using overused functions more than once, and NO tree(x)]
B: As original as possible please. Ones that i consider good will be favourited by me.
C: It must be well defined, computable, and finite.

Alright. In either case, my number is 9,223,372,036,854,775,807 (2^63 - 1)

Okay, so my 2nd one is (2^^3)^3 [1.157*10^77]

In that case, I'll use the biggest number I could think of when I was 7.

First, imagine a trillion 9's in a row. Then make THAT the number of nines that are in a row. Now use THAT number as the number of nines...
Do this a trillion times and then just add 2 for no reason.

I never gave that number a name, but that's my number.

Edit: That's my 444th post!!
Edit 2: For anyone who wants to know the context of this number, I was talking about big numbers with my dad (he'd just explained googol and googolplex to me). Then I told him my number and that that was how much I loved him

That's wholesome, but that's only about 10^^(10^12), so I'm gonna do this. 14!!!!!!!!!!! is roughly 10^^(9*10^12), which is bigger

10^^10^^100, a giggolplex, is larger.
edit: in respone to unnamed's post, here's a bigger one: f11(10) in fast growing heirarchy, or roughly 10^^^^^^^^^^11

10{10^100}10, in BEAF. This means there are 10^100 up arrows.

can everyone slow down the pace a bit? anyways G[2], the G[] part being the function that leads to graham's number.

Sure. I'll go with G[3] except you start with 3{256}3 instead of 3{4}3. (Of course, G[4] would still be far bigger.)

You do realize that this violates forum rule 3d (no unnecessary nested quotes), and the entire thread likely violates forum rule 4 (chatty, high-volume, not CA-related)?

okay then, changing rules...
Rule D is now: NO QUOTES UNLESS NESSECARY
New rule: rule E: Post limit of 3/hour

[rutabaga]

a bunch of quotes

It's been an hour lol

I'll speed things up a bit again.

G(47^^98)

mini-bump.

Too slow... let's keep it interesting so we don't kill the thread.

G_32(1024). That is, 32 iterations of Graham's Function, starting with 1024.

[unname4798]

g_2024(2024). 2024 iterations, starting with 2024.

[JoshM]

g_3024(g_32(1024)). g_3024 iterations, starting with g_32(1024).

[unname4798]

g_3024(g_32(1024)). g_3024 iterations, starting with g_32(1024).

g_10000(g_10000(10000))
