Conquering the Timeline - Rise of the Golden Idol - Chapter 5 (Part 2)

The timeline is certainly tricky, but it does need to be filled in with precisely the six names in Hunter Wolf's list of homeless people. The order of the shelters gives a relative ordering for the four men living in them, and Harry's journal mentions that Scrawny Marvin died and he got to move into his place. As for where Luke fits, he was there when Orion arrived, according to Orion's journal, but it's William who's going to move into Harry's place, so he's ahead of Luke.

Can’t wait for the last episode! The timeline was tricky, as another commenter said - there’s a lot of moving parts involved. I found the dwelling rankings to be overly vague as well. Even though I understood the criteria well enough, that “warm” meant “has protection from the cold outside air” and that a metal bar is more secure than a plank etc, it still felt more like guesswork than deduction. (I guess it helps coming from somewhat the same latitude as the developers when it comes to questions of winter cold.)

Thank you so much for watching and commenting. I feel like I need to go back and look it it because we went through so many theories before landing on the right timeline! It's all part of the fun I guess. Stay tuned for the conclusion! -JShmoo
