Wow, it's good to know the L-space timeline broadly agrees with my thoughts on {{M}} and Patricians, and I worked it out all for myself!

The DWTL places the party in 1967, closer to thirty years before the current storyline. See also : [[Talk:1957]]. Unfortunately, the daft bugger who writes this stuff also provided the gratuitous quote from ''Twurp's'' saying V. didn't graduate from the Assassins until 1968.

In the TV-adaptation of {{TCOM}} and {{TLF}}, the Patrician is clearly Vetinari. But that could be considered as tidying things up to show them as they should have been. --[[User:Sanity|Sanity]] 21:56, 16 August 2009 (UTC)
:TP used to insist that there was only one, against all the evidence. I wonder why. (In the books, he's clearly not.) Rincewind also appears to be a hundred years old in the TV movie which I don't understand, either. --[[User:Old Dickens|Old Dickens]] 22:30, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Are Mad Lord Snapcase and Psychoneurotic Lord Snapcase the same person?
The first seems to be someone Rincewind read about as a student,who was hung by his
figgin.The second was close to being,or actually was, Rincewind's contemporary.

:Where did Rincewind say that? The DW Timeline is particularly messed up around Rincewind's student days. (There was only one Snapcase that we know of. Some Patricians have been crazy enough for two nicknames.) --[[User:Old Dickens|Old Dickens]] 22:29, 19 October 2009 (UTC)

::In {{IT}}, Rincewind mentions that Mad Lord Snapcase had been hung up by his figgin, and then the footnote says that this is according to the history books and Rincewind, in common with every other young student, had looked up "figgin" in the dictionary and found it to be a teacake. It also comments how language must have changed over the years, implying that this was a while before Rincewind became a student... [[User:TC01|TC01]] 01:25, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

:But if it were before Rincewind was even a student, it would be too long ago for Vetinari's ascension...--[[User:Old Dickens|Old Dickens]] 01:41, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

: This is when we must invoke the Universal get out of jail free card that is "Quantum". Or alternately blame the history monks.--[[User:Beligaronia|Beligaronia]] 03:55, 20 October 2009 (UTC)

:Many do, but it annoys the Cheney out of me. I want things to fit, dammit! . --[[User:Old Dickens|Old Dickens]] 22:38, 20 October 2009 (UTC)
