First of all I will repeat what we all hold to be true, One man cannot tell another how to throw darts, It is up to the individual to feel comfortable and natural during their throw, that will give the best results.
But!!!! there is one rule everyone should abide by if you are going to take it to the next level, that rule is, CUT OUT ALL UNNECESSARY MOVEMENT.
Nylon you are deffo a rhythm thrower, and have that behind your ear style, people who throw like this tend to throw hard and with very little arch. They also tend to stand very square to the board as opposed to more sideways, which causes the elbow to swing out in the backswing, hard to tell from that angle but I do believe yours does.
Because of your love of rhythm, what Jimbo stated holds true, you do indeed reach for your second and third dart quickly, a split second pause in between throws will help this, it doesn't have to be long, just a split second.
The main thing that I see, and according to rule number one is the following.
We all have a point were we "SET" ourselves for the throw, and a point at the end of the backswing, we are looking to shorten these two points as much as possible so we have less of a window for mistakes or going off track.
This is the point were you "SET UP FOR THE THROW"

Note that in the above pic your elbow seems to have swung out, Setting up for your throw at this point may stop this. Also your dart is pointing to the ground at this point, therefore there is some wrist movement somewhere to correct this from here to the release point, this is another unnecessary movement that can cause a mistake.
Your elbow from your last point of the backswing to your point of release does indeed stay in the same place, but if you look at the pics it moves (raises) from your setup to you last point of the backswing, which is another movement you can avoid by setting yourself at the target in the position I mentioned before.
Anyhow give it a go and if it doesn't feel natural then read the first paragraph of my post. lol
Good luck

Maybe I should just poke my eyes out, that'll fix everything lol
p.s. I wouldn't try to stop yourself from drawing back you dart so far, I would concentrate more on "SETTING" yourself in the above mentioned position. Work only on one thing at a time and do not try and change everything at once. Even if you set yourself with the dart pointing to the ground is ok, just work on that set point first. By doing so you have effectively cut your drawback in half and stopped your elbow from swinging upward and outwards. All necessary movements
