Action Game: Set Start Position

When you change the x value, the MovieClip either moves left or right. So, when you change the y value, the MovieClip moves up or down. When I change the x value to be greater, the MovieClip moved to the right. When I changed the x value to be smaller, the MovieClip moved to the left. Same for y. When I made the y value bigger, the MovieClip moved down the screen. When I made the y value smaller, it moved up the page. The x and y coordinate plane in flash is like Quadrant 4 of a regular graph, except the y is absolute value. None of the results really surprised me because I knew what would happen when I changed the x and y value.
