Well, I offered shortly after I first got here, but I never heard back. So I’ve been happily working on it in my spreadsheet.
Try him again and ask on the https://oncepodcast.com/forums/viewforum.php?f=53 thread since he will be updating this forum and maybe little us actually see the youtube video instead of the link. I also posted a couple pages back where someone did a timeline maybe with yours and that one we can get a straight one. 😉
[adrotate group="5"]Ok, I put it up on googledocs. Linky if people want to see. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B6r8CySCCWd9d1p3T0R5R2FoeUE/edit?usp=sharing
Also, I think I’m gonna post this in a separate thread so people can give feedback. Should that be in fan creations or general discussion?

I have it on a spreadsheet as well. I don’t think it is that helpful to try to have actual dates at this point – we don’t have all the information and need to have it more fluid so we can add events as we become aware of them. I like the idea of working with a sequence of events, so the spreadsheet format works for me. 🙂 So I have this very long list of events with no dates. I researched a few time line programs but they all ask for specific dates. Also, the horizontal format is difficult to read as it is impossible to see everything all at once. I wish I could figure out how to post a document like this online (I have a Mac) – still looking into that. Than you can all help me with corrections and stuff. I’ll look at Daniel’s again – the first time I tried, it was intimidating because of the dates and horizontal format!!
Yay, Keb!!! Can’t wait to see it!!

I’d do general discussion just because it’s likely to get more traffic on that part of the forum. Great job.
"He was a lot of things to me" "The only conclusion was love"Very nice job Keb maybe you and LaurieAnne can work together and format it so it is easy to read kind of like writting a story ❗ ❗
We have a few dates to go by–we know that Skin Deep includes Feb 14 2012, and the newspaper in Welcome to Storybrooke plus the date in Selfless Brave and True confirm that Emma’s birthdate was the 22nd of October, 1983. The events that are closest to those, we can derive reasonably accurate dates for, but for most of it, yeah, it’s wide open.
I’ve been handling it by giving an estimated year relative to the curse, an estimated year of Rumple’s life (since that doesn’t have BC/AC stuff messing with it), and then having the first known event of that year be Day One, with each event that day getting its own counter. It’s a highly imperfect system but it does give me some flexibility to move things around as needed when new data comes in.
I’m also currently going back through and cataloging the scenes so that one could put the episodes together and see how they flow on the same spreadsheet, but I’m -so- far from done with that. Or the bit where I look at what each character is doing at each point in the timeline where they are present…
You guys might have an inkling of how insanely obsessed I am. And that’s not even looking at the rest of my personal spreadsheet which has, among other things, a page trying to calculate how many deaths/attempted murders each character is responsible for and how many times each character has been behind bars.

Keb, I love it! It is somewhat hard to read – maybe I just don’t know how to expand the different lines so I can read everything. Can you advise? I WANT TO SEE IT ALL!! You need to be the Timeline Master of the Forums!
If you download it and open it in proper excel, you can make the lines as big as you need.

Great!! I had the same problem too but like I said before if you made it into a Story it would be much easier to read especially in my case since I seem to have some eye issues and maybe keep the spread sheet too I know I am asking a lot but thought I would at least throw it out there 😉
This would be a great project for this summer while we wait till the new season starts. There seems to be a lot of good writers on the board maybe with your help and the others you can create something special for all of us. What does RG say “I will give you a cookie” ❓ 😆
