Although I don't have time now to read that thread to completion, (I will later, promise;) it seems to me to be a sort of self-nullifying prophecy. And this is why:
H.G. would have to travel not only to every when to know all attempts at time travel, but to every where within every when. Now, given an infinite amount of time, this would pose no issue. But, H.G, being a man, still ages while he exists! So while his capacity for time is limitless, his own time is not. And where the machine has been done, it can be redone.
Plus, when Ben Affleck did it, all he was capable of doing was keeping himself from getting shot. You'd think he would at least leave himself a note about Reindeer Games.
