667 by Saxon Dog. Really interesting premise, and focussing just as much on the emotional as the scientific fallout.

Good Abandoned TL's
Spiraling Out Of Control, by Jack Hawksmoore. It's gone dark for long periods of time in the past, but this time it did so on a huge cliffhanger. A very interesting and in-depth look at an alternate 90s, but it's fascinating the sneak-peaks at the present day that have me intrigued.

Amazingly well researched and written, and he did add an end of sorts but we didn't get all the way to the end or do any of the stuff after the war that was being hinted at. Also we didn't know if it was a mind sent back, aliens or a Life on Mars.

I still think about it from time to time, but my creative energy is now expended in other fields. Thanks for the compliment regardless.

I did one about an alien spaceship crashing into England in Queen Anne's times (I think) and got bogged down in the details, so someone else said they would take it over, gave it a go, but didn't finish it.
My problem was that "who was where when" was such a difficult question that I was never sure if I was being right or not.
Some other of my timelines on here which were popular and seemed abandoned I later finished as public books which were completely unpopular, lol.

Thanks! I sometimes forget I even did this
I miss it. Barefoot in the TL is a sort of spirtual successor, I believe unintentionally. But I think the world could do with the Acid Jazz Age too.
Don't remember the name of the TL or when exactly it was abandoned but there was one where Apollo 11 encountered a Canadian time traveler.
Not an abandoned timeline but Varyar has written a series of vignettes that take place under a victorious Reich. Since it's vignettes focusing on the micro level, there's an unlimited number that can be written.

I have a question. What about TLs by posters who are no longer with us?
There are a couple, but for different reasons, I would have liked to see continue.

Seconded, I really want it continued so we can see Ayn Rand's deranged descent into fascist dictatorship, complete with Downfall-esque villainous breakdown ranting in a bunker while the UN is dropping bombs overhead.

BUT, unlike formers that didn't finish due unknow reasons, this one had a end (https://www.alternatehistory.com/fo...endered-in-1945.296250/page-206#post-13218272), but the end was around 1947 in Japan while from 1948 onwards is unknow, since theres an 2016 map after that (https://www.alternatehistory.com/fo...endered-in-1945.296250/page-218#post-13498305)

Yep. Hitler fakes his death and attempts to escape to South America. Presumably he gets captured.
