- The events of July 1- 3 are somewhat confused. Datu obviously is captured the evening of June 30 (This date follows the dating set by Riley's journal in 8-1). Therefore, the events of Angel and Riley entering the Arena and looking for him take place on July 1. However, It is revealed by Pegs in 11-3 that they spend July 3 searching the apartments for the stolen goods and interviewing Kalani. This causes a bit of a continuity issue. Either Angel and Riley's search for Datu took far longer than it seemed, or we simply had a day disappear.

August 5th -
Logical timing following the day prior.
Problems include-
Datu, Angel, and Riley spent an extra day out of the tower.
The last three or four days aren't determind.
The other towers attack is a rough estimation.
The towers activity during the venture in the colony isn't proper.
