What name do we think? “Lost Season 27”?
The Lost Season 23 is definitely not an arc. But I can see the rationale behind S27.
Yeah things that naturally have their own way of collecting them together - like every story featuring X characters, or every story in a season or set - do not need to be made into arcs, that’s just doubling up and not helpful.
It was really invented so people can see connections between stories that don’t necessarily all go in the same group.
There are coming up lots more ways to get the badge - when I add Suggest Edit to more things like Collectables and Quotes, it’s not something you can/should try to do quickly!
The Sixth Doctor and Peri box set is also part of this arc (between the MR ones and Bad Terms)
This one isn’t Older Peri, it’s set sometime before The Reaping.
I think having an arc for the Marc stories would be useful - as right now you have to have two tabs open to see all the stories because of the way BF released it.
Wait, does the arc include any story that Marc is not in? My memory is a bit hazy
Yeah, there’s 4 stories in the monthlies where 5 travels solo but its part of the arc they directly follow into one another.
Then we should have M-arc!
Do we think we need a Viyran arc or is them being linked by the Viyrans as a character enough. I know we had a discussion about not doing arcs based on companions/characters.
I think if the list is the same as an existing list (so in that case, every story featuring that character) it’s not needed.
I see someone’s added ’The Erimem Arc’ to Three’s a Crowd and The Council of Nicaea – not quite sure why, can’t see much connection between the stories and Erimem is is a lot more than just those two?
Yeah I don’t think that she really needs an arc, that’s a pretty straightforward case where you can just look at the audios on her character page (I guess that also includes audios from her series and Kerides but like it’s easy to see that those aren’t Big Finish)
Probably ones that slipped through before I let the suggested know we weren’t doing companion-based arcs.
I’ve added the Heartless and Collapsing Multiverse arcs to the EDAs, and I’m coping with the fact that I shouldn’t make a “Sabbath Arc” by fixing his character tag
I’m trying to decide if the quick trilogy of Timeless, Emotional Chemistry, and Sometime Never counts as an arc…
Also, should Wolfsbane go in the Earth Arc tag?
Also, should Wolfsbane go in the Earth Arc tag?
I think so! I’ve tagged the short stories set during the Earth Arc I know of too.
What was the arc that linked to the PDAs and was about companions dying or something. I’ve not read all of them (or hardly any of them actually) but seem to remember something about the Council of Eight.
That could be referring to a couple of things:
There’s the multiverse freakout at the end of Wolfsbane with several different endings overwriting each other, most of which feature Sarah and Harry dying before the timeline finally settles on the one where they both survive, which explicitly ties into Timeless and the multiverse stuff. I don’t know if other books tie into this as well, or if it was just a one-off
Or there’s the idea that, in Sometime Never, as part of their manipulations of history, the Council of Eight killed off a bunch of companions, or at least ensured that they have miserable lives. I’m not sure how much this is an explicit, planned story arc, and how much it’s Justin Richards explaining away/making fun of the super dark and edgy way a lot of the other books were handling former companions
That was me
I was using a guide on MR arcs - until i was advised that companions don’t really count as arc by @deltaandthebannermen
Of course! No worries ![]()
