Almost four years with six admin notifs. Still zero bans.

Five years never banned.

Wow! Yeah, I never actually thought about WHY the bottle was there. Of course, there's still downfall timeline to think of. I remember there was a theory that the visions Link and Zelda had were me...

Anyway, thank you so much for the input, Tristen! And thanks for joining in, everyone. It's interesting seeing you think outside the box; fascinating to ponder what the overal cause for Link and Ze...

I wouldn't put it beyond the Goddesses/Triforce to dole out these visions on their own. Look at Twilight Princess; Ganondorf suddenly received the Triforce of Power (described as a "divine prank")....

Ruto's describec part is such a sophisticated hint dropped by the creators. We all went wild when Nintendoer first illuminated that bit.

I haven't seen conversations like these since the Zelda music guys were still around. Also, that bottle with Ruto's note thing is pretty clearly implied by the game to be a forgery by Ganondorf. Al...

This is good stuff. This is how game story theories are meant to be. Before the days where people used little in-game evidence and presented their ideas as fact in a pretentious way. Conversations...

It's possible that he got his vision from the Gerudo magic and not from the Triforce. Just because the other 2 may have gotten their visions from the Triforce doesn't mean that Ganondorf did. Perh...

That's a great theory. I think I read it before, but I'm not sure I commented. I should play OoT with this in mind. It will likely take OoT Ganondorf from a good villain to a great villain.

An unwitting collaboration of kings eh? Poor choice of a peace offering. I'm just of a mind that Koume and Kotake would know about the Spiritual Stones and Ocarina given their age and vocation. See...

But regardless, it would make sense for him to receive a vision from the Triforce, at least initially, as the other two did.

Gerudo are shown to have their own objects of worship, and Koume and Kotake their own magics. Either could have been employed. The statement you quoted that he makes to Link after Zelda's hail Mary...

This is still a theory as opposed to canon? :p In this iteration of your thoughts, my mind is fixed on the nature of Ganondorf's vision. While someone in his position, heir to an alienated kingdom ...

...Door of Time without a second thought. If my theory is correct, it was a genius move, and quite a mind game he was playing. His plan works flawlessly; he deserves seven years of rule after the i...

...desperation? No, he knows he doesn't have all the necessary keys. How about a calculated strike to force some rash decisions out of the other two future Triforce holders? Zelda thrusts the Ocari...

...she displays ignorance when told about the letter, and initially refuses Link's help. Thus, I offer this possibility; Ganondorf wrote the letter to guide Link on the right path, and allow him ac...

...taking it a step further and planning this from the very beginning. What about the Zora's Sapphire? Ganondorf cursed Jabu-Jabu so that Ruto would be in danger when going to feed him, thus allowi...
