The idea of a "meta-time" has been put forward in at least one other topic (probably archived, by now) and something of the kind does seem to be the only way to make sense of the thing. It can't be the same as the Doctor's personal timeline because that can and occasionally does loop back on itself (in ''The Impossible Astronaut'', for example). It's not even the same as the running sequence of the show, because that can include flashbacks, but it's closer to that than to anything else. Quite a lot has already been said about this idea and I don't want to repeat it here. To find the earlier discussions, try searching the archives for the term "meta-time" (I know it's been used in the discussions). --[[Special:Contributions/89.240.240.49|89.240.240.49]]<sup>[[User talk:89.240.240.49#top|talk to me]]</sup> 00:34, December 30, 2011 (UTC) | The idea of a "meta-time" has been put forward in at least one other topic (probably archived, by now) and something of the kind does seem to be the only way to make sense of the thing.

this is the original thread which i have also linked to in another un-archived post http://tardis.wikia.com/index.php?title=Howling:How_does_everyone_know_the_Time_Lords_are_gone%3F&t=20111107194042 . to put it simply, the reason adelaid's memory haddn't been affected is the same reasont that the time war doesn't exist in any part of space-time anymore.
