The Referee relays...

We are using a 24hr clock, yes. However is what you posted a general sleep schedule or does it apply to the day in question as well? The reason I ask is because everyone was still awake at 0930hrs on 019-1115 when you had the meeting on the bridge. So while the sleep schedule suggests that Gaden normally would sleep from 0600-1400 on the day in question he was actually awake and based on my last post he was still awake at 1245hrs. Obviously it is ultimately up to each player whether their characters are going to follow this schedule or not, but is what you posted going to be the "Normal" schedule?

It is helpful to have this schedule because during extended lengths of time (Like during jump travel) if something were to happen it would be good to know who is asleep and who is awake at the time.

It is a suggestions and yes, it was based on the current day, prior to the fuel refining being finished.

I didn't look hard enough to know what time we convened our meeting on the bridge.

I am ok with my character's sleep rotation. I have already posted it on the main quest too.

Rebel over...

Looks like a pretty generous allotment of "Down-time", I'm happy with that. We'll probably be around a lot more than the schedule suggests - there is only so much sleep a body can have .

The Referee relays...

Maybe a better way to do this, and give me some idea of who is presumed to be active at any given time on the ship, would be for the crew to develop a work schedule and 'fire watch' schedule rather than a 'sleep schedule'; basically a period of time where it would be assumed that all crew members are available and at their respective stations along with a typical 'lights out' time for the ship in general and then a schedule for 'fire watch' after lights out (Assuming you decide you want to have a fire watch).

So if Krakrefr knows that 'lights out' is 2100hrs, then he has fire watch between 0100hrs and 0300hrs (Just an example), and then everyone is expected to be at their stations at like 0700hrs he would know that he could plan some time for rest before he has to be up for watch.

No complaints about 'fire watch', just waiting on the other crew to post their ideas.

I suffer from diarrhea of the brain when I write and it just keeps coming and coming.

My apologies to everyone else. Not meaning to step on toes or anything.

Why don't we just split the crew in half, with two ten hour shifts and then have one person on a firewatch duty to cover the four hours not covered by the others?

First rotation would be main roles. Second would be secondary.
