<USS Avalon> OOC

After a lengthy discussion with  our fearless leader  about the merits of  
establishing a timeline, we have come to an agreement. One past log by Kaera  
Ashayu (I believe it was her) stated that it had been seven years since the  
Dominion War ended, and it is established Trek canon that the war ended  in the 
year 2375. The last Stardate used on DS9 was 52645.7  (or August 24th), and it 
was common practice for the writers to move things  along by weeks or months 
on Star Trek. A rough  guesstimate would put the cease-fire in the month of 
November,  possibly December. Had seven years passed it would now be 2382. 
 
However, the agreed upon date,  approved by the aforementioned fearless 
leader, has  the Avalon at Izar in July---more specifically, July 7th  (it will 
be 
July 7, 2382 until the sim gets moving again  or Marc says otherwise). So it 
hasn't been quite seven years yet, but it  will be soon. He has also agreed 
that the crew arrived at Izar late in the  evening on July 2nd. This gives all 
of 
us a firm point of reference for getting  back into the swing of writing. 
Four days' shore leave, familiarizing yourself  with the new Avalon, whatever 
strikes your fancy. Some of us still have  to get there with new characters! 
 
As for specifically when the war  ended, a fellow fan fiction writer (and 
friend of mine) wrote a tale  in which the cease-fire took place just before 
midnight on December 24th,  Earth Standard Time. My point here is that I 
believe 
we should all, as a group,  come to our own consensus for the sake of Avalon's 
timeline as to when  the war actually ended. I encourage each of you to send 
me a reply on this  matter. 
 
Otherwise, lets all of us get  posting again so the Avalon-C can finally get 
out of her  drydock!
