== Re:Eleventh Doctor timeline == | |||
Hi, thanks for contacting me. I'm happy to discuss ''The Power of Three'', but would also like to talk about a couple other things too. | |||
First, here are the reasons for placing the back-ups during ''The Power of Three''. | |||
#There isn't a huge gap on Earth between TDTWATW and ''Pond Life''. We ''could'' assume a year passes for them between there, but that's really not ideal. | |||
#It's already tight between the beginning of ''Pond Life'' and ''Dinosaurs on a Spaceship''. | |||
#''The Power of Three'' doesn't give any indication as to whether the Doctor visited the Ponds between October and their anniversary. When Amy references the "nine months", she's talking about the cubes. While that really should be closer to 10 or 11 months, that can be put down to a continuity error more than anything. (AMY: "And the cubes, well, they're just here. Still. What's it been, nine months? People are just taking them for granted.") | |||
Hence why ''The Power of Three'' is the best gap for the back-ups. | |||
Now onto your removal of the "second chance with the Ponds" section, which held most stories released after ''The Doctor, the Widow and the Wardrobe''. It makes perfect sense to me that the Doctor would return to travelling with the Ponds soon after they were reunited, and yet you insist that these stories be placed prior to ''The God Complex'', making that gap far too big, considering the strong arc it has going on, as well as putting them way out of release order. | |||
We made sure all the stories we put af after TDTWTW had no reason to go earlier. For example we left ''Vengeance of the Atomon'' before TGC as it references an earlier DWA comic. We also left four of the 2-in-1 novels there as ''Terrible Lizards'' has a note indicating it should be before ''Wedding''. So this wasn't a random change we made, we were very careful about it. | |||
One last thing: ''Destiny of the Doctor'' should probably be earlier, as it doesn't suit the mood the Doctor would be in after losing Amy and Rory. Neither does Decky Flamboon, but that can't be avoided. I'm not sure if the ''God Complex''-''Wedding'' gap or the ''Wedding''-TDTWATW gap would be best though, or perhaps even pre-''The Impossible Astronaut''? | |||
Hope these explanations are to your satisfaction, [[User:Danochy|Danochy]] [[User talk:Danochy|<span title="Talk to me">☎</span>]] 02:17, November 8, 2020 (UTC) | |||
