################################ Original timeline (with no dates) by Stack at www.mxoarchive.net/Dates, updates, corrections, and additional information provided by Skyscream ################################# *Minor updates: April 14, 2013 The Matrix Timeline Project ------------------------------------- I'm working on figuring out the timeline of events from beginning to now. I plan on updating it as things happen in the matrix. This is not the final version but a work in progress. I've taken the work done by Stack and altered it after some research. There are numerous changes but that doesn't detract from Stack's original work. He did a great job and I'd be lost without his work. Since this is a True Believer timeline I tilted some of the opinions in the other direction to reflect the general view of the faction. For example, the conquering of humanity is refered to as Genocide. Opinions have of course been altered to reflect the views of this fleet and so doesn't match Stacks work exactly. Still the same events. Just a slightly different viewpoint on some issues since I'm not trying to be impartial in this version. *About the dates: I've done a fair amount of research into this and the calender dates are not really open for a great deal of debate unless you can back up what you are saying. While I continue to research and calculate the proper dates I ask that you consider what is here to be final.

Why would teh keymake choose exile or face deletion if he is coherient to the progression of the path of The One?

Post by Ceege on Sept 4, 2009 0:02:14 GMT -8
I have often wondered that too. Perhaps The One would always succeed anyway as it was part of the system of control. Or perhaps the key maker's purpose was only to make The One's key and not to go all the way to the door with him.

Good ideas there Ceege, but it still doesnt add up. If the key maker was deleted then that would mean no key to access the source. No source = trinity saved. Trinity saved= ACTUAL human race ending and the Matrix Crashing with a HDD wipe. (lol)

Perhaps the Agents could be working without knowing that Neo is needed alive in order for their system to even remain running and the keymaker plays a part in that. Or they know that the keymaker is needed for Neo to restart the cycle but must act as if they do not to keep Neo and others unsuspecting that the prophecy was a lie because that might result in Neo choosing not to reach the source causing a system crash.

Or could it be a new one needs a new key kind of like a RSA cypher key where the combination resets there by when the cycle resets previous keymaker gets an upgrade. Could be that this key maker was needed as an exile since the one was a different version of the one.
Alternately
The Key maker though a systemic program exists within the physical confines of the matrix like the Oracle does and as such has to 'act' like a human could be then that the exiles then capture him to use as leverage

I will attempt to get the rest of the timeline together when I have time to do some searching. Quite frankly without the information offered by Stack this never would have happened in the first place. The vast majority of that is what I borrowed, with permission, from his work. I edited a fair amount for typos and things I felt belonged in different places and added events I felt were significant. Plus of course stuff that was guild RP related. Turns out I bit off way more than I could chew because I never did get around to getting a lot of info from numerous other guildmates. It's a big project. lol. Also why I never got any Pride stuff in there. I'm hoping to change all that in the future. Cheers! Skyscream ((doing the admin thing. lol. ))
