I have taken the liberty of assigning crew quarters for my PC, along with 3 other NPC crewman and placed a note on each characters roster entry.   I hope that is alright.  I need this note in order to remember who could possibly be in the quarters when my PC is there.  If any department head wishes to change them, no problem, just let me know.  

I heard from Giddy, he says he'll have a post up today or tomorrow, then we can start rolling the plot forward again.

I have Stark as having the skills to pilot a shuttle.  Not sure if that will do here or not, but I would think that it would fit the bill for a six person craft.

...is one if the better pilots in Starfleet and loves his little sister. She might surprise you.

I'm not suggesting that Stark has to be the pilot, just saying he could be an option, if desired.

There may be some delays in between my posts.  Shouldn't be more than a day, max two between them for a little while. I'm dealing with a personal tragedy, but I'm attempting to hold on to as much "reality" as I can. I'm enjoying this, even though we have only started, so I hope you'll forgive me those delays.

Man, I am so sorry to hear that.  Nobody will peep over a day or two, I wouldn't think.

I agree, MagicMan. Please know that our thoughts are with you.

I've modified my post to represent the information that you folks have shared.

Jenna (Lt. Falcone) can/will still pilot the WaveRider. Currently she's the best one qualified (If I understand the positioning correctly), there are just supposed to be three flight crew. If one or two of the other Away Team members have that experience that's great.

(Just wanted to say that I wouldn't/won't be out so long that I won't be able to keep up with posts. Just a little slower, is all.)

Appreciate the helping thoughts!

No worries Magicman, people here are understanding when it comes to RL delays.  I hope things work out for you!  Well wishes headed your way!

... about the delays. I've recently started working weekends in addition to the normal work week. As weekends were where I tended to get most of my posting done, I'm now struggling to find the time in my schedule. 

I'm not gonna let the work get in the way of what's important, though! I'll try to keep my posts coming at a steady pace. Unfortunately, though, I may not be able to maintain the usual level of detail I try to put into my posts.

Working weekends is only a temporary thing, I should be back to a normal work schedule before Thanksgiving time!

Thanks for the understanding.

Not allowed. Tell your superiors that your father is putting his foot down.

I've updated a bunch of things on the first page.  Go check them out.  I have a schedule for everyone who is not a crewman, I've got helm borrowing tac and ops, I've got ops borrowing Engineers.  It's pretty tight in there, let me know if I've got someone schedule back to back gamma to alpha.  If tac or ops isn't on the bridge they are scheduled to their respective offices, which is just a starting point, I'm sure they're all over the ship doing their thing.  Cole and Rouhani are on the same shift 4 days a week so we can have away missions then.  Rouhani stays on the ship, Cole leads the away missions.  

I've also found some pictures of rooms in the ship, not all of them are perfect, the pictures have a lot of officers sharing quarters, and that wasn't my interpretation from reading the SCDT description.  But it's a starting place.

Thanks for all of that work! Interesting that the vision of Engineering doesn't have a pool table.

There haven't been a lot of posts recently.  Has everyone done what they need to do before we arrive at the planet?
