Welcome to December. It's time for our monthly OOC announcements.

✧ DECEMBER AC ✧

The Mods here at TRP are aware that this can be a very stressful part of the year, and one where your time may not always be so free for RPing as it might otherwise be. As such we have decided that December will be Check In Only. Any character that has not taken a strike in November will only need to check-in. To perform a check in, please use the Template First Month on the AC page to submit your AC, so we can track any possible expertise changes.

Any characters which currently have a strike will only be asked to submit standard AC levels to clear your strike. This means treat December like a normal AC month.

Please note: those characters that do not check in at all will receive a strike. If you do not need to clear a strike in December, it is advisable that you go to the AC Post right now and check in to ensure you do not forget to do this. Characters with strikes can be swept if they do not submit AC in December. Please remember that even with December being chill, we still need you to do this step.

If you have a strike and need to hiatus for December, please do so as soon as you can to ensure that you don't need to worry about that.

✧ MONTHLY NOTES ✧

This month through our Ongoing Event characters have had their very shipable ships returned to them. Except they are new ships. The Glitter Food and The Peanut Party have arrived and there is plenty to see on them. And there is the potentially ominous message on their bridges. Soon. Soon what? We don't know.

And as we know it will get asked below (and we'll answer it there too), yes, characters WILL receive their AC fun bonus this month IN CANON. See comments below for information.

✧ WINTER TDM ✧

As a general reminder to our players, the Winter Test Drive Meme is up and there for the enjoyment. Because TDMs are part of our application process for new He Rows, we always encourage our players to check in and interact with characters there. They can be used for AC, in addition to clearing strikes. So don’t be afraid to join new characters when they show up.

✧ NEW TICK FUN ✧

Ah, players, we can all see that the year is winding to a close, which means New Tick will soon be upon us. The event has been fun in the last two years and we want to make sure that we have fun in the next year as well. There will be more fun and games to be had this January, with an extra sprinkle of fun that we haven't seen before. This year there won't be the same winter festival, but we've got fun planned, and more than that, there's the gifts.

And look at that, you can start requesting now! Please note you have to be logged in with a character account to access the post. Rules are posted on the page and we ask players to pose any questions they have on that post and not here. Take the time now to start thinking about what you might ask for, and remember that it doesn't necessarily have to be something the character would like. These are the Agrii giving gifts, and they might not know that a certain prize possession is more infuriating than welcomed. You'll have until December 24th to submit your lists, one individual comment per character.

Finally, we'll be opening up these gifts to any player who joins the game prior to the cut-off date for the gift and celebration ideas lists. So if you're going to enable new players/characters to the game, don't forget to tell them that as part of the New Year, their characters might almost immediately get some treat or gift from home back into their possession. It's like a second item brought with them and might make characters feel a bit more connected to home.

✧ NETWORK REMINDER ✧

Just a minor reminder regarding Network posts and communications in game. As is noted here on the Data Points & Expertise page, characters active on the Network in any form will have their names displayed as matching their character tag (minus your canon information). Only characters with the Communications datapoint can alter this labeling method. It is therefore not necessary to list a 'UN' in any Network post or responses unless your character has specifically done this. Without the Communications datapoint a character would not even know this is possible unless they see someone else with an altered username. We have no problem with you making these changes, but remember it does come with that requirement of Data Point change.

✧ ACTIVITY RESULTS ✧

As always we would remind players that if you run into some unforeseen barrier to completing your AC, please send a direct message to the [personal profile] trpmods account as soon as possible. Our Activity Check page also has a questions comment that could be used for contact. Please do not send messages in the game discord at any time. If you would prefer to directly contact a mod via Discord, Plurk, or DW, please include contact to Mod Churby in some manner, as they primarily handle AC records.

If you're looking for your monthly silliness for AC, see the comments below.
