THE KEY: A STREAK-DAY IS ONE CONSECUTIVE CREDITED DAY · THE SEAL IS THE 90-DAY WARMUP LOCK — NOTHING SCORES UNTIL IT FILLS · COLLECTING_WARMUP IS THE CLOCK’S CURRENT STATE · A GATE IS A QUESTION HELD SHUT BY AN UPSTREAM QUESTION
THE SEAL NEEDS 90 CONSECUTIVE ELIGIBLE DAYS. A MISSED DAY RESETS THE STREAK — AND THE DATE. THE COUNT GOVERNS; THE CALENDAR FOLLOWS.
RUNNING NOW ON THIS PAGE: THE SKY (OWNED-NODE WEATHER) AND THE CLOCK'S NEWEST SEALED RECEIPT. SEALED FIXTURE UNTIL FIRST LIGHT: THE DAY LEDGER AND EVERY CLAIM FACE — ZERO READINGS EXIST YET.
