Thank you. I’ll do my best when I get this far.

[adrotate group="5"]Adam finally cleared this up. It was supposed to say “500 years”, not “200 years.”:
#OnceUponATime timeline clarification — there was an error on a title card Sunday. It should've read "500 years earlier" not "200" sorry!

Guess this was a mistake in the editing room, but it still doesn’t excuse it not being caught before it aired.
Yes, extremely sloppy. *shakes head*
Glad they clarified it though, will it be corrected on the DVD I wonder?

They intend to fix that title card for the Blu-Ray and any future releases:
@FAAPF it was an honest mistake. we intend to fix for bluray and all future versions

Also, looks like Rumple was the Dark One for a little less than 200 years, which was what Keb suspected:
@faithfearcolide I believe Rumple was DO for a bit less than 200 yrs. And 300+ years for the others…

Here are my rough estimates about the Dark One timeline, until Keb can give her own thoughts:
980 (1000 years before Arthur becomes King) – Merlin drinks from the Holy Grail.
1480 – Nimue becomes the First Dark One.
1860 (rough estimate because of Big Ben) – Rumple becomes the Dark One.
1980 – Arthur becomes King 33 years before Present Day events.
1983 – Storybrooke is created.
2012 – Curse is broken.
2013 – Present Day with Emma as the Dark One.
The 300 thing for Rumple comes from Bobby (and maybe Jane?) waaaaaay back in S1. We’ve never put much stock in that; it’s always been closer to 200 for us. Though we always aimed on the higher side, like 230-250.

I always thought Bobby’s comment was just a random estimate, and the point he was trying to make was that Rumple was very old. lol! It’s really the whole thing with Big Ben not being completed until 1858 that made Keb place it a little less than 200 years. There’s also a difference between saying how old Rumple himself is, and how long he was the Dark One for. Rumple was probably what, in his 40s or even 50s already when he first became the Dark One? If he was born in like 1810, then yeah he would be 203 years old, give or take. Meaning he was the Dark One for closer to 150 years.
BOBBY said during one of the first COMIC CON and repeated several times after that RUMPLE was 300 years. (I always estimated that he was from the 1400 to 1500 based on his clothes as a peasant. Regina’s outfits always looked more like the late 1700s early 1800s.)
Hook also mentioned in one of the episodes he had been in NEVER-LAND for 300 years trying to find a way to kill the crocodile.
I think this is where we got the original 300 years as Adam and Eddie back up Bobby’s statement.

Time run concurrent in the EF and our world. When Bae lands in London around the late 1800s, it’s the late 1800s in the EF as well. But the EF is not as technologically developed as our world. They move slower in that regard, but A and E have stated many times that time runs the same. Bobby’s statement was really just an actor speaking his opinion. A and E have never said he was 300.
