 Due to Thande inadvertently giving two characters similar backstories in two close-together chapters, the timeline has become nicknamed the "Look to Burning Down People's Houses TL".
-[[offtopic:Roberto]] is Thande's official [[lttw maps|mapmaker for LTTW]], a fact that he takes great joy in, and loves to flaunt it around. [[offtopic:Alex Richards]] and others later took over some of Roberto's map duties, as he's busy these days.

-Thande is particularly fond of [[alternate history:alternate terminology]] (see that page and the [[glossary look to the west|glosssary]] for some examples from this TL). You can generally assume that if something was invented or thought up after the POD of 1727, it will have a different name in this TL than in [[alternate history:OTL]].
