** In one story, Hippolyta, current queen of the Amazons, has a fling with Heracles but winds up dead due to Hera's meddling. However, another story has Hippolyta marry Theseus (Heracles' cousin and sometimes companion), and dies when the Amazons invade Athens. Then another account says that a generation later the Amazon queen Penthesileia accidentally killed Hippolyta during a hunting accident, meaning that Hippolyta potentially died three times! Admittedly, these accounts aren't too hard to reconcile...which is probably why there are about half a dozen stories that try to do it, with varying versions of which hero Hippolyta was involved with, how this affected her standing with the Amazons and how she died. [[note]]In some accounts of Heracles' labor, Hippolyta is not killed, while other accounts of Theseus say that he married Hippolyta's sister Antiope (though the fact that their son was named Hippolytus implies he was named after his mother). Because of the generational difference, the Hippolyta killed by Penthesileia could have been a different Amazon with the same name, though Penthesileia is still a sister of the original Hippolyta, since both of them are daughters of Ares.

* ''TabletopGame/Warhammer40000''. The setting is ''deliberately'' designed to take into account the possibility of Continuity Snarl by making the tech [[SchizoTech naturally variable]] and everything told is either [[UnreliableNarrator from skewed viewpoints, propaganda, or possibly inaccurate documents, reports, or histories.]] Its creators' pronouncement is "Everything written about 40k is ''canon,'' but it isn't necessarily ''true.''" The ''Literature/HorusHeresy'' series is an exception to this; the idea is that this is what ''really'' happened, without 10,000 years of distortion...which just makes it awkward given that the sequence of events after Isstvan goes something like three different ways ''just within books by Graham [=McNeill=]''.
