::Saghan: If -- '''if''' -- my idea is right, the Doctor probably will start with the records needed to spring River from Stormcage. That might not mean the Stormcage records themselves will be first, because it'd depend on all the connections. There'd be no point erasing things from Stormcage only to have them check up with some other database & find out what's going on. (That, though, is the professional database programmer side of me talking & I don't suppose we'll be taken through the process in detail. No reason why we should be.) Anyway, we already know that the erasure was done well enough to get River out & (importantly) to get her out '''unconditionally'''. She's not on parole, on temporary release, subject to recall or anything like that. She's free & clear. If (again) my idea is right, it would also mean that the pardoned River has just inadvertently started the process that will get her pardoned, which appeals to me. --[[Special:Contributions/2.99.198.167|2.99.198.167]]<sup>[[User talk:2.99.198.167#top|talk to me]]</sup> 23:23, October 3, 2012 (UTC)

:::It appeals to me as well. That's essentially what I was aiming for with my last post- that the whole "circling back on itself" is quite entertaining to me. Admittedly, this is a form of a paradox, but they've already used it on the show plenty of times. Even River herself was named through a paradox. Amy named Melody after her childhood friend, Melody- who then turned out to be the same one.
:::Speaking of Amy Pond, I just could '''not''' neglect to say this anymore: I live in an extremely boring part of America, stuck at the bottom of Alabama in a town with barely enough population worth mentioning. Guess who absolutely blew my mind a few days ago by not only showing up here, but is continuing to stay to film a movie? Karen Gillan. She frequents the Starbucks right down the road where my friend works. So in all likelihood, I may get to meet Amy Pond. I'm sure for some people meeting celebrities isn't a big deal or even uncommon- but for her to show up '''here''' is the most amazing thing to happen to this town in.... '''ever'''. Not only that, but if I could have chosen anyone to meet from Doctor Who, it would have been her. (Please pardon my fanboy ramblings, I just can't get over my excitement.)
