:Just because you can't imagine how something can be explained doesn't mean there's no possible explanation. Maybe someone else is more clever than you—or, more likely, someone else is just more obsessive than you and willing to waste more time thinking one up. I gave some possible explanations above, that people thought up decades ago in long geeky arguments (the Master couldn't use the link because there's not enough power—just like you can't toast marshmallows over your heating vents even though they're linked to a furnace; everybody knew about the power source for Gallifrey, but nobody knew that it was the fabled Eye of Harmony). You don't have to accept those as the canonical answer (the first one appears only in the EDAs, and the second has as far as I know never been used in-universe). But clearly they serve as an existence proof that an answer is possible. --[[Special:Contributions/173.228.85.35|173.228.85.35]] 07:54, September 2, 2011 (UTC) | :Just because you can't imagine how something can be explained doesn't mean there's no possible explanation.

:I thought that if the mini-Eyes were linked to the Great Eye during the Time War, when the Great Eye was destroyed when Gallifrey died, the feedback from the cataclysm could have damaged the mini-Eye in the Doctor's TARDIS irrepairably, so he had to utilize an alternative means of getting powe, such as rift energy.
