How did you find meeting these requirements?: Moderate. Tagging into enough things is easy; holding conversations long enough to call the threads "moderate" in length is harder, since Hajime really...isn't that chatty, and tends to just answer a question, make a point, and then shut up. To give some idea - I have about thirty things I tagged into on my AC spreadsheet, I didn't mark anything green until I had at least ten comments, and only about a fifth of my links made it there. (And some of those are multiples with the same character, so they wouldn't both be usable.) Would you prefer more clearly defined requirements, or do you like the more open to interpretation system? I don't mind an open/flexible system but I do feel that having a range, even if not a specific comment count, would help a lot. The cutoff I gave myself of 10 comments is pretty arbitrary and I'm still not sure if it's what you're looking for or if I need something longer. How quickly would you say it took you to reach the requirements? I had things covered in about a week, but my pace in getting long enough threads also slowed up considerably after that first week, so it's not the best meterstick. General thoughts on the activity check: Echoing the comment Kazuma's player made, my threads nearly always run under ten comments and it does have me worried about whether that'll be viable in the future. Being able to link a couple extra to cover my ass if mine are all short would be a nice option. That said, that's my only real concern here, and I think having plot involvement as part of AC is a great move.
