Also, in all of these articles we're treating the religion of these peoples as accurate. We say that Akhaten woke up when the Long Song ended, that the Festival of Offerings kept the Old God asleep and so on. According to the Doctor, that just isn't true. Akhaten woke when it was his time to wake--the song had nothing to do with it. Akhaten didn't wake up because the Long Song ended, the Long Song ended because Akhaten woke up.

Also, do we know anything about distances between the temple and the stadium? The people at the stadium can hear the chorister in the temple and the Doctor can hear Merry Galel singing when facing the Old God. I know not exactly on topic--is it advisable to start a new thread to discuss other issues affecting this set of pages?
