-EdT first joined in 2005 and was initially most famous for his remarkable maps, made using an unprecedented grasp of the arcane intricacies of Photoshop. More recently, he has written the timeline [[timelines:A Greater Britain]], featuring a world where Oswald Mosley remains in the Labour Party and eventually becomes Prime Minister, and [[timelines:Fight and Be Right]] where Lord Randolph Churchill is far more successful. His latest timeline is entitled [[timelines:The Caesariad]], and revolves around an alternate Roman Civil War sparked by the death of Julius Caesar at a far later time than OTL+A [[britain|British]] member of the board, EdT joined in 2005 and was initially most famous for his remarkable maps, made using an unprecedented grasp of the arcane intricacies of Photoshop. 
  
-His timelines are noted for his habit of having some rather unbelievable turns of events followed by a quiet footnote reading "All this is OTL up to now". This also leads to him unearthing remarkable bits of trivia (who knew the Kaiser liked Gilbert and Sullivan?) and covering areas largely forgotten in OTL.+And then he became one of the best writers on the board. Seriously, Ed's a real treasure of a writer.

 +His timelines look at reappraising these historical figures in a different light and pointing out how much we think we 'know' about them is composed either of myths or based on events that could easily have gone differently.
