We intended the boat to leave port from Manhattan on August 14th 2009.
If we assume that the trip was a two week cruise (about par for the course; I don't remember if we said 1 week or 2) we can say that the cruise crashed somewhere between August 24 and 28th so that they're a little more than week or so into the cruise and have had time to socialize or have fights.
The new moon was on August 20th, which would have given the tribal council time to discuss the impending doom beforehand at their regular council and would have given the tribes 4 to 8 days to prepare (which explains why things were very temporary in the witches camp and whatnot).
Emergency tribal was held the evening after the crash (technically the same day that they rescued the survivors which took them well into the morning). For sanity's sake we'll just say this happened on the evening of the 28th into the morning of the 29th.
From here we can work on speeding up the game to real time, but I think we should continue back-playing in August and September of last year to deal with the immediate adjustments and aftermath of the crash.
Edit: We're going to tag any things we've backdated until we get to the present (such as 2009 august) just to keep everything together and easier to understand. If you want to jump ahead in the storyline to the present feel free. Assume that by early September the survivors know that they're on a magical island and can start branching out to interact with other tribes. By January they know that they're stuck on the island for good and must make this their home (but when exactly they realized or knew this is still sketchy). This should keep us reasonably busy for awhile.
