A log is in progress with Skyler and Keith as well as Kaera, we are waiting for 
Lt. Vila to add to it. Once it is sent out we can start giving the go ahead to 
get people on the ship and get started on a new mission. Part of which is to go 
back to the Avalon B and gather what remains of our personal effects. I don't 
know if this clears things up or confuses you more. If so let me know and I 
will try and explain it better, if possible.

Don't mind me, folks, I'm just a little lost. We all know I'm the slow one here so bear with me. I'm trying to figure out the point of this whole email. Since it's typically understood that Avvy isn't "Canon" I'm not sure where canon trek timelines apply. It is what Marc says it is, plain and simple. We've been writing and posting and all that's kept us from leaving drydock is the go-ahead to board the ship. So the point of this was? If it was to "hurry up and do something, folks" that would come from our command staff, so I doubt that was it. What am I missing?

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!
