January Activity Check

[natha]

It's time for another Activity Check! As a reminder, please track the activity check tag on the community. AC will always the last four (4) days of a given month, ending on 11:59pm EST on the last day of the month.

AC is two (2) proofs of any of the following:

• A log thread with at least five (5) comments coming from your character.
• A network thread with at least ten (10) comments coming from your character.

You must use threads with different characters for your proofs (example: If you used a thread with Character A for your first proof, you may not use a thread with Character A for your second proof).

Per your acceptance notice, JANUARY ACCEPTANCES WILL ONLY HAVE TO FILL OUT THE TAKEN FORM AS A CHECK-IN. Failure to do so will result in removal from the game. If you have filled out the taken list, you will not need to check-in for January.

If you cannot make AC in a given month, you may take a strike. Players are allowed one strike before they must make full AC or be removed from the game.

Players are only allowed to use a hiatus exemption from AC once every three months, but they are allowed to hiatus as often as they see fit. If a player has extenuating circumstances and needs to hiatus for longer than a month, feel free to contact a mod. We do not accept retroactive hiatuses. If you do not post a hiatus before AC and realize you need an exemption, you will have to take a strike.

If you are exempt due to hiatus, you do not need to fill out the form. There is no "check in" for hiatus exemptions!

Please review to the following guidelines for AC:

• January's eligible AC period is from JANUARY 1st to JANUARY 31st.
• Once your activity is processed, you may not make edits. Keep this in mind when choosing which threads to submit here vs. ACP!
• REP threads may be used for AC, but AC threads cannot be used for ACP.
• You cannot use TDM threads for AC, but current players may use it for ACP.
• If you take a strike, you cannot submit ACP for the current month.
• You are allowed one strike without question. You are expected to make full AC next time.
• Multiple-part tags count as one (1) tag comment.
• Inbox threads are eligible for AC, but they are automatically considered network posts regardless of what format they are.
• You are welcome to use threads that started during another AC period, but only the comments that are timestamped within the current month will count toward this month's AC. Please provide links starting from this month's comments.
• You are exempt from AC if you were hiatused for at least two weeks in the AC month.
• IF YOU DO NOT RESPOND TO AC, YOU WILL BE DROPPED FROM THE GAME. We do not issue warnings.
• Each subthread must be AC length to be accepted; combining threads is not permitted. Please link to specific subthreads, rather than top levels. This applies to both network and log threads. In a log/network post, the post itself may count as one (1) comment.
• In the event of an overflow, continuations in your personal journal count as whichever type of game tag they originated as, e.g. a log overflow in your journal = a log thread.

If you are confused about where and which tags to submit, please consult this visual aid before asking a mod!
