Game Announcements and Activity Check Results
Thank you all, the July Activity Check is complete. Once more we thank you all for continuing to make The Revival Project such an awesome place. If anyone is interested in this month's 'hank you for a great AC' gift, please check the comments below. This month our theme is centered around video game achievements and our new ship assignments!
First, though, Announcements! Both of these affect all players so please make sure you look in on them. The first is about our new method of AC, the second is about your New Ship Assignments.
Activity Check Change Starts!
As previously announced the TRP Mod Team has decided that we will be moving over from a monthly AC post to a new permanent Activity Check page. In fact you can access that now. This post is and will be pinned to the top of our OOC comm going forth (under the game navigation post). Players are now able to turn in their AC at any point during the month. AC will still be due by 11:59 PM Pacific (UTC-8) on the seventh of the month. So this means that if you were posting AC for August, you could post it from August 1st to September 7th.
If you have a strike or need to prove double AC for additional character applications, you will also be able to use this page for that. We hope that this new method and larger window will help all of our players, and mods, better manage our AC cycle. If you have any questions you can direct them to us here or message the mod team for assistance. We are glad to help.
And yes, you could theoretically submit AC for your characters today and have August finished already if you were really super eager and already have your activity.
New Ship Assignments
So, was everyone nice and excited for their new ships? Well, good news! The new player assignments are posted on the newly updated Ships Page! We'll also have a secondary list down below in the comments because guess what? The monthly AC celebration has to do with those new assignments. Give a big hand to Mod Zet for all their hard work in getting you a new and more easily referred to ship page. They worked very hard to bring us a new and lovely arrangement. As a note we've got the ship's primary pilot on their own separate line. This does not mean there cannot be more than one pilot on a ship.
As a note, improved descriptions of older ships will be coming soon. Our eagerness to share your new ship assignments was just so powerful. Characters will find the transfer of their access to ships starting today. Isn't that neat? They will also find that, mysteriously, any of their personal belongings on their old ship is now on their new ship. Weird. And cool, right? Right.
