Alrighty, Kia. I've sent e-mails to the others reminding them that we're starting back up again. Depending on how many people come back, we may or may not have to merge with a group running a parallel storyline that could easily bring both games together.
So, I can see the game restarting one of two ways:
1 - We skip a head a few days, assuming everyone going about their business i.e. training, attempting repairs, conversing, etc. and I'll write up a reintroductory type post to give everyone an avenue back into active gameplay.
2 - We pick up right where we left off.
Whatcha think?
