Well, I can see that the theory isn't gaining any acceptance. Firstly, I've been misunderstood, and questioned how MM can fit between OoT and WW. I am not proposing this as part of the MQ timeline. It was just an example of how some people do put the games. Really, all there is to this timeline theory is this...
OoT................
MQ...............
Insert the games where you like. Most of you would put the 3D games like this...
OoT.....MM....TP
MQ.....WW
Like so, though it doesn't matter which of the two games MQ, or OoT go first.
Now to explain why I placed the games in a order on my sample timeline, that everyone deems weird. That order being....
OoT...MM...WW..PH
MQ.....TP
As I clearly have stated I havn't played TP. My sig tells you that. And with the games I've played, there's no need to split the timeline to fit them in. Therefore the triforce of courage isn't split in time travel at OoT's conclusion, but rather in Link going to Termina in MM, and leaving Hyrule. Therefore WW must follow to gather the split pieces. That's to answer some reoccuring points I've noticed, now to answer some more personal ones...

And how can MM come between OoT and WW? If, like you're proposing, the final timeline travel in OoT didn't cause a split, then the adult side OoT stuff would be erased, and thus Ganon wouldn't be sealed away as he is in the WW backstory.

Well, it's not for sale. It's my opinion, you either agree or not... Regarding Ganon not being sealed away, I view the seal placed upon Ganon in the Sacred Realm at the conclusion of OoT a seal that is greater than time. Simple time travel won't break it...

You don't need to have played all of the Zelda games to include them in a timeline, I haven't but I still include them all.

Firstly, what other remakes are there? because I'm aware of none!
Secondly, you have to of played all Zelda games to include them in a timeline because only through playing them can you know all the intrigate parts of it...

Ahh, thank you for supporting me on that. It would be that way if TP didn't exist. Having not played it, TP doesn't exist in my theorising, and that's how I come to my view...

I think we've covered that...as much as we can without a full on argument..

Well. My views aren't lost. I guess that everyone just disagree's. Honestly, I see splitting the timeline as a resort.
Well they are my thoughts, as the Garo's say, "belief or disbelief rests with you"...
