Yes, I think it would be best - if some players maybe abandoned us by now, we could simply assume they got lost during the jump? I'd still like to continue the game, very much so, a small group could be just as much fun and maybe move on a lot faster (posting-wise). What about you? Would you still go ahead with a possibly much smaller group? It might be a rescue plan before the RP completely falls asleep waiting for some people to post...
