I'm trying to draw a puzzle showing the firing orders. Sounds fun for some reason. Meanwhile I'm just scribbling all over this notebook!

You're probably going to stumble across some great secret, ala Davinci Code. Somewhere a government has intercepted a secret transmission full of important information, and all they need to do is see this thread and the lightbulb will go on over their heads. "A-ha! Dis is de firing order of das V12! Now ve shall rule the world!"
