Linear Chronology of Alpha Timeline
Initial Temporal Disturbance – Critical Rupture
This is a helpful guide, since so many people have expressed their confusion. The purpose is NOT to explain everything to you. It is to HELP you. It provides no information that you do not already have or cannot deduce, so it is not required reading. As the title implies, this only covers the primary timeline and only up to a certain point. (P) denotes present and refers to the instance of that character native to that point in time. (#) provides only convenience and has no real meaning. (?) means I’m still not giving you all the answers – deal with it. Everything said here is 100% correct and these events happen in exactly this order. That does not mean that this is 100% of everything that has happened or that other events cannot have happened in between these ones. Twilight is not infallible.
1) A large mass of energy arrives near Ponyville, carrying a unique magical signature.
2) The energy is spent opening one half of a split wormhole.
3) One Rainbow Dash (1) and one Applejack (1) come through the wormhole.
4) Applejack (1) locates the present Rainbow Dash (P) and sets out for Hoofington with her. Rainbow Dash (1) follows.
5) Rainbow Dash (P) begins to understand her feelings for Applejack.
6) Rainbow Dash (1) and Applejack (1) now have several months to themselves while they wait for the chance to be sent back to the future.
7) Rainbow Dash (1) and Applejack (1) switch places with Rainbow Dash (2) above Sweet Apple Acres.
8) Rainbow Dash (2) levels half the farm.
9) Rainbow Dash (2) talks to Twilight Sparkle (P) and Applejack (P) before leaving with Twilight to discuss the invention of time travel.
10) Rainbow Dash (P) arrives at Sweet Apple Acres and is oblivious as to why Applejack (P) is angry.
11) Rainbow Dash (P) heads back to Ponyville and runs into Scootaloo (?), promising to hang out with her later before leaving.
12) Rainbow Dash (2) runs into Scootaloo (?) and hangs out with her, vaguely remembering promising to do so.
13) Rainbow Dash (3) waits in the clouds to start hinting at her feelings toward Applejack.
14) Rainbow Dash (4) appears to stop Rainbow Dash (3).
15) Rainbow Dash (5) appears to take Rainbow Dash (3) and (4) to go find Rainbow Dash (P).
16) Rainbow Dash (6) arrives at Sweet Apple Acres and startles Applejack (P) with a sudden confession and kiss.
17) Rainbow Dash (6) returns to Twilight Sparkle (P) and gives her the idea to keep charts.
18) Rainbow Dash (7) goes to apologize to Applejack for wrecking the farm, giving the impression she is apologizing for event 16.
19) Rainbow Dash (7) meets Scootaloo (?) for “something awesome.”
20) Rainbow Dash (3) (4) and (5) watch Rainbow Dash (P).
21) Rainbow Dash (8) interrupts Twilight’s research, but gives her fresh ideas.
22) Rainbow Dash (7) switches places with Rainbow Dash (8) and Twilight Sparkle (1).
23) Scootaloo (?) sees Rainbow Dash (7) flying by and Rainbow Dash (P) in the doorway, getting the idea that there is more than one Dash running around.
24) Rainbow Dash (8) and Twilight Sparkle (1) show up at the library to tell Twilight Sparkle (P) that she will be going to the future.
25) Rainbow Dash (6) and Rainbow Dash (9) rip reality a new one.

So... Scootaloo is the master of time? You know what? I'm okay with that. I'm okay with a lot of things now.
Talk about a roller-coaster of logic. When you get down to the bare basics, your principles for time travel make sense. As near as I can tell, you stick to these rules quite nicely, with the possible exception of Scootaloo's path. There's no doubt in my mind that if I took the time, it would be possible to trace out a stable path, for every version of Dash and Twilight.
But, by no means am I going to do that. At this point, the confusion that your story inflicts upon me has become part of the experience; it'd be insanely weird to understand exactly what was going on. I've never found a story before that made me like feeling confused, this is an entirely new feeling for me. So, I have no idea how you wrote this, but whatever you did, you did something well.
Now please, please wrap this up before I lose what few shreds of sanity I have left. If that's okay with you, of course.

We are actually nearing the home stretch. I can't say for sure (some scenes have wound up being longer than I originally intended), but I'm currently estimating ~3 more chapters. Depending on the response to Appendix A, I may also put up more appendices to help those who want them.

I will take all the appendices you are willing to write. I... I think I more or less followed, but I know I can start dropping things when trying to mentally juggle this many entities, and I'd like to confirm that I was following. Appendix A here is for, like, the tutorial section of the Fic. Before everything goes totally off the rails.

Jeeze. I love this fic and all, but it's screwing with my head worse than the timelines of XXXHolic, Card Captor Sakura, AND Reservoir Chronicle Tsubasa combined. @.@ Either way, it's all been well written, obviously thought out to an extent I've never had the patience to take in any of my fics...and by god...is probably one of the best things I've ever read to date.

Like every Doctor Who episode written by Steven Moffat! Write a bunch of shit that doesn't make sense, then explain it at the end. Second time you watch, you go 'OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOH that's what that was!'

uuuuuuuuuuuhhhhhhhhhhhhhh...............................wut?
I'm still lost. But I bet another one of these will be put out, to futher help. And then the ending chapter'll have an explanation. So in the end, I'll be able to understand what's going on.
So all's good.

A question...... Has it been explained yet, how, and which Twilight travels through time first? And to what time she appears. (Time is based on the sequence of events). I don't think it has been explained yet, or how Applejack managed to do the same. But still, loving the story, and more Appendixes would be nice, although I..
(and I know this seems crazy).. But!
I know exactly whats happening and have followed all of it so far. (Not including the parts that are undefined) It's actually simple when you realize the points that have not been explained yet, and leave them as undefined. (And worry about them later) Then you take the characters, (for example, every scene that involves a Rainbow Dash), and you put a variable in place of the character or event that signifies all of the possible character or scene choices it could be related to and in what order.
The first Rainbow Dash that is introduced, (P) is odiously not the second (1) that fell out of the sky. You then do not know where (P) went, to a certain degree, and later you must realize that any single new Rainbow Dash could be the (P) one. This is a bad example because the (P) Rainbow Dash is easily extinguishable between the others, given the fact that she doesn't know about time travel, and would flip the fuck out if she saw herself walking around.
Using this I was actually able to find out that somewhere before the first chapter, an Applejack would have HAD to have come from the future and taken (P) Rainbow Dash to Hoofington. To be honest I didn't know If when she went through one part of the wormhole she would have come out in a different timeline then the Rainbow Dash (1) that accompanied her through the other side of the wormhole. Glad that now I know that when 2 characters go through the wormhole, they will come out in the same timeline. (If there is an exception to this rule please tell me ) I'll be able to close up a lot of variables now
Anyhow, loving it, and cannot wait for new chapters.
Coming to you with a massive headache,

Even without this Appendix I've actually been paying close enough attention to understand the main timeline relative to both itself and all 3 characters (Not scoots). I've always been a fan of time paradoxes and I gotta say, you handle yours like a champ. It's a bit early to say for sure, since the story isn't finished, but so far it's the best one I've read. The ONLY part that confuses me a slight tad is the alternate realities, since we haven't read into them(yet?). Pinky with Time travel sounds like a bigger mind-screw than this main story. Geek-out aside, great story, can't wait for it to wrap up.

I feel like I should mention that this story got mentioned in a youtube video, mostly because it's 3 in the morning, I'm sleep-deprived, and not thinking straight.
Anyway, LINK.
If you read through the credits, the guy talks about a reading a time-traveling Rainbow Dash story. He mentions that it's 18 chapters long, and this is the only one I can think of that fits that description. So, good job to theworstwriter, I guess. You're on youtube!

SLEEP DEPRIVATION? WHAT'S THAT?
Well then, that's... interesting to know? And also cool probably? I haven't watched any of it, so I wouldn't know, but I'm guessing this is a good/cool thing. Being endorsed or mentioned by good/cool things is good.
ALSO, wow the formatting on Appendix A got derped pretty hard. I just pasted it in and walked away, but really should've looked more closely. It's not unreadable, but it's ugly. I'll probably fix that the next time I throw out an update.
Thanks, everypony, for sticking with me through all the ridiculousness and awful writing (and if you've been in a chat room with me, frankly unacceptable amounts of link whoring) - it makes me happy to know that something I've done has made so many of you happy.
Hopefully once this finishes you'll like the ending as much as I do.

See this, this all makes sense to me up to #25 since there's technically only one of each pony. It's that stuff AFTER #25 that confuses me. Anyways, good stuff! can't wait to how it ends(?)!

I have to ask, and I mean this in the best way, which one are you, Roberto Orci, Alex Kurtzman, J. J. Abrams, or Damon Lindelof?
