Alternate Reality?

Which is really the alternate? Or did both happen? The thing about paradox-free time travel is that it sort of means both things happened. The original happened, and then the alternate happened, while not canceling the original out. Very confusing. --Buddy 22:44, 16 August 2009 (UTC)

Well, I think that since the timeline changed, the one where Seymore died of age is the alternate. But, like Captain Janeway said: "My advice in making sense of temporal paradoxes is simple: Don't even try."

In my mind, it is plausible for both to have happened. I think the entire point of the paradox-free time travel was that it did not create alternative realities. It just created a "paradoxed reality", despite its name. I mean, if this is an alternative reality, why is the future the same then? --Svip 10:05, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
So, the time code makes it's own timeline? That could explain why there's two copies of anything. — Chris of the Futurama 2 [ discuss | contribute ] 15:12, 17 August 2009 (UTC)
