SEPTEMBER ACTIVITY CHECK

Activity check will remain open through October 7th. Only activity from September 1st through September 30th will be acceptable.

All characters accepted a week before this announcement (Sept 24) and who are not already on hiatus must check in by or on the 7th or be removed from the game.

Hiatuses a week or more in length may be used instead of providing activity. HOWEVER, please note that doing so two months in a row will constitute a strike, which will stay in place for four months.

For characters using hiatus and new characters accepted within the last month: it is not necessary to fill out the 'Plot Relevant Actions' section and all four threads. Simply listing the new character's name, journal, and info post is fine. Players currently on hiatus need not worry, though you are also welcome to provide links to activity upon your return to avoid potential strikes from using a hiatus two months in a row!

Please fill out the following form and add it in to a new comment.
Player Section (Paste once.)

Activity Section (Paste once per character.)


Threads do not have to be a set length to count, but it must be evident that some work/thought was put into them. A network-based thread of many brief comments may hold the same weight as a shorter one with a higher word count per comment. Threads can be from the same entry, so long as they are with different characters. In other words, don't sweat it, though if you feel four threads is not enough, you may provide up to two more, both of which can be with a character who is the same as in one of the first four linked threads.

Strikes: If your character does not meet activity requirements for whatever reason, you may opt to take a strike for them by replying here or speaking with a mod. Characters with an existing strike who then qualify for another will be removed from the game. However, again, each strike only lasts four months before being reset. For example, a character who has a strike from August will need to have activity or a declared hiatus each month up to and including December's activity check.

Not that many. I have perhaps two threads that originally started in August which had any continuation. Since I returned on 9/28 I'm afraid I didn't have that much time to do things within that time limit. Up until that point, I was on hiatus.

I understand that the cutoff appears to be 9/30 which I didn't see when I posted this, but I couldn't have met that requisite in two days' time. Should I take it that it's a strike? I fully intend to amass subsequent activity for the next A/C but I know this depends on what you guys think.

Anything else?: Some of Suzaku's threads started at the tail end of July. I have linked only the comments posted on 8/1 or later. Still included 5 threads since some are brief as a result of my time on hiatus. Please let me know when you can whether these will suffice.
