Things are going well in the back story. Here is my tentative line up. Everyone is on slow speed right now, and there is no reason to rush any posts. Where I have written "The Doctor" I also mean, interchangeably, "The Meddler" depending on which one he chooses to post with. This line up is only the back story, after which the Doctor will join a more standard rotation.
The Doctor
Sarah Jane
The Doctor
Romana
The Doctor
Martha
The Doctor
Amy
Rory
The Doctor
Donna
The Doctor
Rose
The Doctor
By the end of this rotation, my goal is to have gotten us all into the enclosure together and start the meat of the story. Once again, I don't want to rush, everyone is in first gear right now, so let's just let that be what's normal, eh?
Once we get to the enclosure, we can go:
Sarah Jane Romana Martha Amy Rory Donna Rose Doctor/Meddler

I have an idea about getting all of Rose, Donna, and Martha on board without doubling a Doctor. Doubling the Doctor proved problematic to this fiction.
Donna Rose, How would you and Martha feel about having Martha and Donna both being in the Tardis with Tenth when this all goes down? You could explain that through your that in a sentence or a page, or not at all.
The complications I see are that you two would have to collaborate a little, hopefully in PM to help keep the backstory condensed. You two would have to agree on what happened, role play it elsewhere and use that as a skeleton guide for your post, then post one after the other on the Strangers thread.
You both would each get a post, but they would have to blend like Amy and Rory's will, and maybe post one after the other. That would change the lineup.
To make it easy, you could choose who is going to play "point" and set it up, and as long as you don't talk much or swing from the chandelier, you should be able to blend them.
It would change the line up again. Let me know what you all think. Martha, I know you're ready to post soon, so if you don't want to wait for Donna Rose's return, just kill this idea, and we'll come up with another.
This new twist would only be key for this first Backstory post that asking everyone for.
This is a good time to mention again that I"m just setting up the backstory so we can have a complex plot we all agree Upon, and how better to tell it than through the eyes of the participants.
Once we hit the story proper, I say it's a free for all.

Incidentally, any companion who gets the urge can feel free to work some sort of plot twist in. Let's get the Doctor into some real trouble.

That puts Martha up.
And when the "running and screaming starts", I think it's going to be fairly traumatic to write.

Pen Rory in for this one. Batman Forever-esque 'Choose which one will die' situation?
