Is it possible for Diamond to backtrack? That is, can he go back and revise some of his earlier conclusions in the light of his experience with your later pics?

I don't see why not, so long as whatever conclusion is finally arrived at is defensible.

P.S. Your latest pic looks like my neighbor's patio. Ugly! (And designed by an idiot.)

That's right, smart guy, and if I catch you sneaking around my patio again, you'll be talking to Mr. 12-Gauge...

Well, general, my first impression was that it might be a representation of part of your bathroom remodeling project. But then I wondered why you would make your bathroom floor look like a patio.

PatrickHenry and I have both detected the apparent independent pattern. We did so independently.

Running #4 through the filter, crudely, without any mathematical calculations, it comes out as a product of intelligent agency.

There is contingency. The configuration of the "tiles" is irreducible to the natural laws governing the motion and placement of "tiles". The relative straightness of the vertical lines in comparison to the horizontal lines between the "tiles" is highly improbable, ie. too uniform to be attributed to chance, indicating a very low probability of occuring by chance. Finally, the independently given pattern match is PatrickHenry's neighbor's patio.

Designed.

Cordially,

Of course, if it's something like a turtle's back, then my answer is obviously incorrect for purposes of this test.
