Q team created the MAP & require the postings to be in chronological order. After the algorithm is understood, you can then reorder the posts to create a circular proof. A messaging system beyond the 1:1 crumbs you were to read on their own.

Winding the clock was the clue that was given to us. There are a few faces of the clock. I have figured out a few, and @hmcd123 has a great handle on one way it works.
The one that works best for proofing is using the time of the tweets (EST).

The clock winds in 12 hour intervals. We now have over 4k Q posts. So if you restrict yourself to a 12 or 24 hour clock, you hamstring half of the MAP.
The key is to wind the clock backwards & forwards from your timestamp.

Example: Tweet time is 12:34 EST.

By a 12 & 24 hour clock you would get the following Q posts: Q1234 & Q2434 .

2434 doesn't make sense, but it proves my point. Now apply the clock in the fashion I described above.

By winding backwards from 12:34 you hit Q34
Then 1234, 2434, 3634.

This is the Q post set from that specific time.
4 Q posts yield from 1 timestamp.

So then you have to find your complimentary markers. This is the most difficult part. If you haven't read the Q posts from start-to-finish you will struggle & I strongly suggest doing so before moving on.

The markers in the tweets can be the literal numerical value, missing letters, certain phrases, capitalization etc. This just takes practice.

After you identify the correct marker, apply the clock wind to that Q post # and plot out your next set of Qs.

If you have correctly plotted out the correct set of Q posts, the crumbs within them with complement another crumb(s) in a different post.
Hence the circular diagram. They all connect.
The hard part is reading the crumbs in a manner in which they can have multiple meaning.

I can't plot these out and just go, "oh yeah this goes here, this goes here..."
Q told us to read, then reread, then reread the posts. You have to, to see the multiple meanings within.

Granted, some of them are fairly obvious.

I should also mention EVERYTHING HAS MEANING.
EVERYTHING.

If a certain Q post is called up, you have to read the article that is linked, the old q post that is referenced, find the tweet that no longer exists, everything.
The paired crumb is often times a visual match.

As far as understanding the message, it comes down to nuance. What are the paired crumbs? What is the context of the parent tweet?
The message is revealed after the proof is built.

So what do these actually accomplish?
1) Proves Q is legit 100%. The algorithm can be applied and works every time.
2) Military has complete control over all comms. This IS a show.
3) This is the tool in which to awaken/comfort.

What these don't do:
Predict dates for X event to happen. It's a military op, they don't share that data. Anyone telling you otherwise is a LARP. Past Qs = their 1:1 meaning in the future when the military is ready.

Without making this anymore complicated that it is, timestamps are the key. If there is a timestamp involved in the Q post (even the tweet time of a Q'd tweet), that unpacks in the same unwinding fashion.
It is so complicated and intricate, they had to have quantum computing.
