September Activity Check

[trpmods]

ACTIVITY CHECK

September was a full AC month; that being said, we know the world is still crazy and may not have slowed down for you to catch up yet. If you had any trouble making AC, remember you can either take a strike and make it up in October, or reach out to the mods if you already took a strike and don't want to drop, but feel at loose ends. We want to work with you, not penalize you for life being crazy!

Each AC period lasts one calendar month (i.e., from the first to the last day of each calendar month). We are now asking players to submit activity for the previous month in the first week of the next month. You have from October 2-8 to post your activity for the month of September. Please make sure your AC is posted by midnight Pacific Time (UTC -8) on October 8. (Normally it would be 1-7, but we forgot to post this yesterday, so we're adjusting the dates. Sorry about that!)

All characters who have been in the game longer than 1 month (accepted before September 1) must provide proof of activity. New characters who joined the game during September do not need to post AC for the month they were accepted. Characters who have been hiatused for at least one week out of the AC month/AC period are exempt. For hiatuses that include days from two months, AC passes are valid for the calendar month in which the most days of the hiatus fall.

Expertise is not required this month, since characters had no access to Data Points to gain or change expertise.

To post AC, please fill out the form below (replace CAPITALS with your information) for each character you play and post it in a comment below.

CHARACTER NAME | <user name="USERNAME"> <b>AC Links:</b> LINKS TO AC POST/THREADS HERE

Characters needing to clear a strike:
Vincent Valentine | afterform

Characters using their referral pass (no AC required):
Lance | the_tailor

Characters exempt due to hiatus:
Kylo Ren/Ben Solo | immunetolight
Sansa Stark | theladyofwinterfell
Cloud Strife | backoff
Daenerys Targaryen | song_of_fire

AC requirements are one of the following for each character played:

- One open post made by your character during the month of the current AC period, with clear effort to follow up on replies. You of course don't have to have replied to every comment before using a post as AC, just show that you've at least made some attempt to reply to comments on the post at some point - basically, we want to discourage making a post on the last day of the AC period simply to submit it for AC.



- Two threads during the month of the AC period containing at least five responses in each from your character that are on average at least three sentences long. (This is a total of 10 comments, 5 in each thread.) Basically, put effort into your responses - using 10 comments that are two words each will not suffice, but not every comment needs to be three sentences or more.

All threads in the main community count toward AC. IC inboxes and TDM threads can be used for one thread but not both. At least one thread for AC must be in the main community, although it can be one that spans multiple months. For example, if you started a thread in August that continued into September, as long as five replies were made by your character in September it can be used again for AC.

Additionally, in-game players can use any two TDM threads from the past three months as an AC 'Get out of Jail Free' card. What that means is that you can use it to remove an AC Strike or to prevent one if you don't have enough regular AC material. You can only use this option once every three months, and again, both TDM threads must be within three months of the current AC month.

In-game players can also use a referral pass if someone you referred to the game apped and was accepted. This is a new option and referral names are now part of the application.

If you have more questions, see the AC FAQ or contact a mod. You can also leave questions in a comment here, and we'll get back to you!

My two threads with Lance are both one comment short. I do have another TDM thread, but I know we can only use one. :( I'll take a strike if it doesn't work.

[trpmods]

No worries, you're good. <3 The two threads with Lance combined are more than 5 comments, so we'll count 'em!
