<p>dang i think i may be up to 6 wrong...</p>
<p>is that still 700?</p>
<p>Man, I put self absorption instead of genuine conviction.. Looking back on it, it was definitely genuine conviction. :(</p>
<p>I think afforded/forerunner fits better than complemented/antecedent, though. If the wording is correct here:</p>
<p>"Eli-- the question was more like "crude animation _____ by the lights flashing from lanterns was a/an ______ to modern cartoons.
something like that."</p>
<p>I don't see why crude animation would be "complemented", or perfected by the lights flashing from the lanterns. The lights flashing from lanterns 'afforded' the ability to make crude animation, a forerunner to modern cartoons. It couldn't be complemented(perfected), because the perfected form of the animation was the modern cartoon. Right? Maybe? i don't know</p>
<p>^ I agree.</p>
<p>no, the sentence was not like that</p>
<p>it was</p>
<p>Crude animation techniques ________ still pictures formed from lanterns was a _____ to modern cartoons.</p>
<p>SC</p>
<p>secret : clandestine</p>
<p>quicks: yeah.. got same..</p>
<p>afforded/forerunner was definately the correct answer.. the only one in which both made sense.</p>
<p>^ heres the way i see it:</p>
<p>i see how people think that the flashing lights from the lanterns would complement crude cartoons. however, these crude cartoons, im assuming, were composed from the silhouettes caused by the flashing lights. so, if there were no lights, there would be no cartoons.</p>
<p>thus, the lanterns didn't perfect (or complement) the cartoons. the flashing lights, in essence, WERE the cartoons. They afforded the cartoon effect.</p>
<p>i dunno. maybe im overthinking it, but to me afforded/forerunner seems logical</p>
<p>exactly ^ 10c</p>
<p>yes.</p>
<p>afforded means that without the lights the animation would not be.</p>
<p>exactly</p>
<p>hopefully 7 wrong is a 700 :( :)</p>
<p>Woohoo looks like afforded by won the argument so I'm back down to 5!</p>
<p>noo, because the words following afforded isn't "lanterns" its "still pictures" meaning pictures that dont move</p>
<p>although i put forerunner, i was split between the two and i am pretty sure now that it is complemented.</p>
