ALL PLAYERS MUST KEEP UP TO DATE WITH THIS THREAD! This is where we'll be asking people's opinions on improving things and checking to see when we're ready to move on to another part of the day, and eventually, end the day. Therefore, I'd like to ask everyone to try and avoid posts that are off topic or posts that do not contribute to the timeline. We're planning on getting through two days on the island in a week our time.
We're now starting on Day 1! Here's a timeline of some important things that occurred in the show that we can work in. If we don't have a player for the canon characters involved and we feel it's not important to the RPG, we can skip it or the mods can do a narration that it happened and the characters in play that should be aware of the event are aware it occurred. It's up to us to decide exactly how it will be done and who will be involved. We also need to decide which ones need their own EVENT thread and which can just happen in the location threads. Since Ana Lucia has crashed with the mid-sectioners, I've copied items involving only her to the Midsection Survivors list as well so they may not make sense but she can do her own twist on things. Also, if you have a major plot you'd like to play out for your character for this day that's not listed below and would like it added, please reply to this thread and let us know. Items crossed out have been done or have passed.

Jack, Locke, and another survivor pull Tourniquet man out from under a piece of wreckage.
