When a group of writers post, it can become difficult to keep track of the posts once a few start coming in; this is compounded by the fact that not every post is written in strict chronological order- we use flashbacks, flash forwards, and other tools when creating our stories. Having an updated mission timeline becomes an indispensable tool in keeping track of what is happening when during a mission.
- NOTE: This timeline only recounts the events leading up to the mission's culmination at this time. Reconstructing the entire timeline is happening as we speak.
==================== STARBASE SERENITY TASK FORCE SERENITY ==================== Mission Timeline: "The Signal" ------------------------------ *NOTE: timeline is listed from the most recent post at the top (according to mission date) to the earliest. **NOTE: the timeline was reset to MD 1 midway through the mission, in the post "New Days."
