bgp-prepend (integer: 0..16) - number which indicates how many times to prepend AS_NAME to AS_PATH
Unless there really is a legitimate reason for it, this seems stupid. The only reason I can think of to put your own ASN more than once would be to artifically increase the AS_PATH size and lower other ASN's preference to route through you. But BGP has lots of other ways to accomplish that same goal.
Why would MikroTik have this as a required parameter? And what legitimate reasons are there to include your own ASN multiple times on an advertisement?
The statement "The Wiimote only knows which direction you're moving the controller" is not accurate
That statement is accruate.
The wiimote knows that direction it is moving in wiimote space, but not world space. I can prove it to you. Face north, hold the wiimote directly out in front of you with the A button facing up, and move it horizontally to the right. The force will push the accelerometer x-axis to the left, so the wiimote knows it is moving right. Now turn your body 90 degrees so you are facing east. Move the wiimote again to the right. Just like before the wiimote knows it is moving to the right. However, relative to the room you are standing in, you just moved the wiimote in two completely different directions. The wiimote doesn't know that.
