What is the IC timeline for fog expedition events? How should the people not on the CYOA be handling references to people who are?
I remember the Hogsmeade Trail was an open-ended timeline and those left behind in Hogsmeade were totally in the dark as to when/if people would return, but the nature of the staff posts was also a bit more timeline-fluid in that scenario (stuff like 'after days of wandering' that kind of "caught up" the IC timeline and OOC timeline in some cases).
For example, in Frederick Townsend's group thread only about twenty minutes has passed, so it's possible he could lose a leg or something an hour into the expedition and then get sent home on the first day. Is it safe for his wife to have threads set later in July assuming that he isn't back yet/she hasn't heard from him? Is everyone supposed to be returning on some certain day and we should avoiding threadding interested parties past that date? Should we just be vague indefinitely about the people on the CYOA trips if we're connected with them?
