Re: My timeline (in progress)

Yeah, that could be the case.

Anyway, if anyone’s been looking at the timeline on the website…I’ve been working on it a LOT the last few days. In the process, I’ve also been making some corrections and changes to my own timeline. The biggest thing is I’ve been trying to work out how to account for known dates (like Emma’s birthday, Valentine’s day, etc) in the timeline, since if we go by curse years (as in the day that everyone wakes up from the curse is 1/1/0 (or 1/1/1)), the software thinks it’s January 1st instead of October 23rd as we know it to be. So I did some remathing around the dates that have a known corresponding earth date, both in my timeline and on the site’s, so that the months would correlate.

That means I’ve got weirdness like half of season one happening in year 27 (you’d think 28, but Emma doesn’t turn 28 until October 22nd of that year…). I’m not sure how better to resolve it atm, unless I just go with earth years as well (and at this point, I kinda could).

I’ll be posting a newer version of my timeline after I decide how to deal with a few more things and finish what I’m up to on the site’s timeline. (I’ve got everything that happens through the curse breaking now, but that leaves all the present stuff from season two yet.)

There were some interesting things that happened as I adjusted the dates, however. I decided to go with Bae’s birthday matching the one on Neal’s wanted poster, for example, and wound up with the Seer’s warning being about the Ides of March. Miner’s Day wound up on Snow’s birthday. Snow and Charming’s public wedding wound up exactly a year before Emma’s birthday.

Of course, all of that stuff was initially based on rough estimates anyway–days relative to the events before after and random educated guesstimates–but I didn’t see the coincidences until I remathed a bunch of stuff to figure out month/day. And they’re too pretty for me to want to change now without good reason.

As always, though, I’m open to feedback on both versions.
