Up until now we haven't really kept track of dates, it was more like "It's
summer," "It's winter," and so on. I'm planning to keep the actual date in
mind a bit more in the upcoming campaign, and I'm estimating there'll be
about one or two months down time between runs.

See above.

> What is the average grade of initiacy that your magically actives attain?

In the last group of PCs (half of which died recently) there were two
grade 1 and one grade 2 initiates.

Most were around 3 to 5 in the last group. Almost nobody goes for sixes in
skills, instead choosing to take more skills at lower levels. One or two
players take the approach of "these are my primary skills, I'll give them
6 points plus a concentration" while the others tend to diversify more.
