Can we talk about how terrible and confusing the outsiders smp timeline is? In canon 1 year and 1 day has passed by the time it ended. Meaning everything that happens in outsiders happened in that 1 year.

So does this mean it's a 1:1 situation where it lines up with irl time? No. And this is where it gets really confusing.

In canon the watchers mess with the outsiders but changing up the time whenever they want, Even then time isn't messed with until we get around the election time, where they start to notice there's people watching them. There's also no indication their days are shorter than 24 hours? Or at least it's never really mentioned? So it's not just time passes in Minecraft days.

The series seems to follows both Minecraft and irl time? We're told cGraecie was in the clearing for a few days before cOwen and cRasbi came up. By the first week or so to them it felt like multiple weeks. And when cMohwee disappears it's considered to be around 3 months. By the time the election comes cOwen says it's been a year. So what's happening here? How does their timeline match up to that one year?

I think obviously not everything will be a 1:1. They're not streaming every day and we just have to fill in the gaps but for their sense of time to be so messed up so early on makes everything so confusing. We can't simply say they only follow Minecraft days because a lot more days would have passed and we can't say they only follow irl time because some things just won't make sense. So now we're in this weird place where the timeline is everywhere but it has to fit in the 1 year and 1 day box.

If anyone can figure out how it all fits please let me know 🙏 I would love to see how this story fits because it's so confusing to me
