The YLC (Why Little Chicago) thread
Serack:
Actually, I'd really appreciate it if you, or someone else took the opportunity to write up at least one time travel theory in this topic (or another that can be dedicated to others responding and theorizing on time travel LC fixing theories.) Which I would then link to in the OP under that bullet.
Your's sounds excellent, and IMO a full writeup of it should include references to the WoJ's stating that there will be a mirror mirror book and that there is likely to be a book dedicated to time travel (your comments cause these 2 possiblities to mesh together for some interesting results in my mind right now... things like Mirror Mirror Marcone fixed it!) I've gotta watch the Mirror Mirror Buffy episode before that book is released.
knnn:
veeery Eeeeenteresting
Some initial thoughts:
1) I'd put down that Either Harry did use LC to find Thomas offscreen TC or didn't at all (tarp over the table)
2) You might want to put down the physical description (i.e. size/area of coverage) of LC. Specifically, it does cover some of the water area around Chicago (though possibly not all the way to DR)
3) I do think that AA was the first to "officially" finger Mab on the forums. That said, the most voracious pusher of the "Mab fixed LC" is Mrs. Duck. You really aught to include one of her "defend my theory against all comers" threads (e.g. here) if only to showcase the Darkest Guardian of the MFLCT (Mab fixed Little Chicago Theory). It also contains a poll where people voted for the various options.
Edit: Sorry, didn't see that you already included a link to one of the Duck's threads. Actually, it's probably better than mine.
4) If you want a post on "Time Travel Harry fixed LC", I gave it a shot here.
the neurovore of Zur-En-Aargh:
I could suspect that one possible answer is Jim wanting to keep us on our toes with respect to not everything Harry puts major effort into paying off, and not everything that gets a lot of build-up actually being a Chekhov's gun.
robertltux:
and of course there is always the Harry Will Rebuild Little Chicago later thing.
Isn't the best reason for a 2.0 that you lost the 1.0 version??
With LC 1.0 Harry proved IT CAN BE DONE so he could get various Winter Minions to help gather the bits and chunks to do a New Version (he could in fact make an even BIGGER ONE) and add new features like a WayMaker and such. (Hmm what would happen if Harry FORZAREd the replica of a building with LC "online"??)

If we're going in that direction, I could see a Little Earth by the end of the series.
