This is very cool. If you're worried about how Lost has progressed since you last updated/started this fic....IT'S YOUR STORY. You don't have to follow canon unless you really want to. If you have ideas that go in a totally different direction than canon, go for it! I really liked the bodies in the caves being "suspended vampires" and I think you were aiming for Jack's father being a manifestation of The First. Keep with that idea...don't worry about "The Others" or the survivors of the tail. Just work with your idea...it is YOUR FICTION.
You got a cool thing going here, hope you continue it.

7294530 repetitions divided by two (30 seconds per repetition) equals 3647265 minutes or 60787.75 hours or 2532.8229 days or 6 years, 11 1/2 months. Big difference from 16 years etc. Sorry the math nut strikes again. Good story though.

Took the math for the repeating broadcast straight from the series, so if it's wrong, gotta take it up w/ JJ Abrams.

There you go. A July 06 update. Sorry work has been crazy & I haven't had a chance to get back to this. Hopefully I'll get a couple more parts up before Season 3 starts on Television.

I just found this story, and it's fascinating. I like the way you are keeping from turning Xander into some sort of superSurvivor type. He's perfectly in character. Great story.
Heya - minor point on the "ring around the rosie" thing, which is something Giles would have known: it's not about the Black Death. The theory about it being about Bubonic Plague is fairly recent, but it's pretty much been disproven. (I brought this up in one of my Lit courses in college, and my prof pretty quickly shot me down.)
