It makes no sense for Lavos to just chuck these guys into a different era when it could just as easily kill them.
My bad there SilentMartyr, I really didn't take into account the fact that the Conservation of Time theory would require in fact that 4 people be sent to the EoT. That makes perfect sense too because when the Ocean Palace disaster did occur, there were only three people that returned to the palace after Crono's death, Magus and two other individuals.
No...There were four still. Schala, Magus, and the two remaning members of the party. I still wonder about how they actually were transported back to the Palace from the Pocket Dimension. Unless it was because Lavos was exiting the Pocket Dimesion to make its attack.
On a purely speculative basis though, I'm a tad confused over the concept of the gates at the EoT. I'm aware of the idea that only after traveling through a gate with your party is it accessible among those at the EoT, but according to Gaspar...

Far too many folks are just popping
in here...
According to Gaspar, many travelers have been popping in and out of the EoT, so why is there a finite number of gates and none that these "other travelers" have used in the past. Just out of curiosity, is it possible that whatever controls these gates, be it the planet or the entity, is selective and only allows particular travelers to use the gates that they have discovered so far? That may explain a way that Gaspar linked to the year 12,000 BC directly. Just a thought...
In concern to who gaspar is talking about there are a few different thoughts. One is that he is merely talking about himself, the other guru's, and Janus. Another is that he is refering to the ending where you meet the creators of the game. You can get the ending if you defeat Lavos at the begining of the game, so it would make sense that those would be the guests he was talking about.
That could work, but how do you explain the 65,000,000 gate? No one entered that at all before the group and yet it was there first.
