I don't mind holes, but the ones PhotoShopped onto bodies weird me out... especially holes with things IN them *shiver* I can look at them, but my face will match my avatar! I am the same. It's peculiar. Not fear just physical revulsion. *shudders*

I think a lot more people have it than realise. It doesn't come up a lot, and when you stumble across it naturally it's usually mild enough that you don't need to fully examine why you don't like looking at a thing, but I think it's actually very common. It's one of the reasons it's such a good phobia to explore in a horror context.

Not that I'm an expert in such things, but I've never really thought of it as a phobia. Some people say that it's a natural reaction to make us avoid eating spoiled meat, and if that's the case it's logical that most people have it to a greater or lesser degree.
Mind, maybe that's just me robbing it of its fear when my words have no right to do so.

While I'm on the subject of timelines...
"Early last month" (i.e. November 2010) Lawrence arrives in America
"The next day" Arden and Lawrence set out for a few days on the trail
Lawrence is then found wandering the woods, and the body is found a week later, on the 1st of December.
That's outside of rounding errors.
(I want to stop before I go too deep help me)

Magnus Timeline.xlsx (38.54 KB) I've been making a timeline for a while now (missing MAG 28 for some reason) a lot of it has been careful listening when Jonny says any form of date or length of time and the rest is just guesswork.

Oh my goodness You've just made tidying up the-magnus-archives.wikia.com/wiki/Timeline an awful lot easier. Also you have pivot tables?! How cool is that?! (I looked up pivot tables and vlookup for a job once then promptly forgot about them, so I might be confusing the two)

(I looked up pivot tables and vlookup for a job once then promptly forgot about them, so I might be confusing the two) Thanks! I work data for my normal job and decided one day that TMA would be my little project.
I use pivot tables for work a lot, I think what you're seeing is the filter option, it makes searching for particular characters, episodes or specific dates a bit easier.

You're absolutely right. It's a good job Excel use in my current job is limited, or I would be very concerned

So, I've listened to this case and written up the article: the-magnus-archives.wikia.com/wiki/MAG_32:_HiveA few things that aren't mentioned and I think seem quite key: it sounds like Jane was in a pretty bad place, worrying about finances and being left my her friends, I think she wanted something to adore her, and I think the worms filled that hole(s)! Also, she said that the hives are just paper, and that there's a whole dimension full of the worms, does that mean that there's a plane of worms and they're bleeding in through the hives?

I'll just be over here, quietly screaming. Although I don't have an attic, I have upstairs neighbours, so I'll be fine.
