Right, I've made a post bringing the exercise to a close, and continuning the intrigue going on behind the scenes. After a short debrief, we'll get some out of cockpit time to speak to each other (or hide in your rooms and not talk to each other, if that's your thing), before the next mission comes up, and the real story gets going. 

I've also extended invitations to the few people we had waiting for positions to open up or who missed out the first time around, and also to Hailfire who expressed an interest in rejoining us. 
My reasoning behind this is that hopefully, with a few more warm bodies, we'll avoid the downtime as much, and keep things moving. Kyelin has also informed me that they've dropped out as they feel they're having problems writing posts.
