Activity Check will run through the last week of March. Activity can be from February 22nd through March 31st. Please use activity posted before this week unless you are stretched and must use a proof from reserve week.

IMPORTANT EVENT NOTE
Both events have been extended through the 29th because wow, why was that event so short? What is wrong with you, HH mod? A lot of things, tbh. So have fun with your macarons for a whole extra 4 days!

SOME NOTES ON AC
Here are a couple of not so crystal clear rules about what is and is not activity. It's never been strictly laid out like this before since it seems a little obvious, but just in case, here's what does and doesn't qualify for AC / tag count starting this AC:

➜ NEW NEW NOTE Because there was a little bit of an error on the last post, here is an edited AC strike rule: "As of LAST AC, new characters may not be apped by a player if they have a strike in effect. This includes strikes carried over from hiatuses. If you idle, you also have to wait a round before apping that character back. This means strikes obtained in March will not allow players to app in March any month until you pass AC." This means that if you don't make AC and take a strike during this week, then you won't be able to app the next week. Reserves you place before or during the reserve period, if you then discover you must take a strike, will be invalid and the character will be available to be apped by other players.

➜ If you used a thread or post in a previous AC you may not use that thread/post again. In short terms, if I've seen it before, I do not want to see it again. Even if you tagged a post 100 more times, I want to see two new proofs of activity. Not an old one with new stuff added on.

➜ With open logs, you may use more than one thread from the same log but they must have different characters in them. For example, from our recent island log, you may use an Island 08 thread and an Island 12 thread to make or combine for AC, but if in both threads you're threading with the same character, you can only choose one.

➜ Do not alter the form you are given to post AC with. This makes it so much easier for me to go through and for others/yourself if you need to reference them.

➜ Forms now have a place for a comment count. Please do not leave these off. Please use these to do the math for yourself. If you have a comment count of 3 and a comment count of 4 for post threads, these do not add up to 10 thus they do not count.

➜ Finally, and this is newly decided, comment spams will only count for one comment. This is an example of what I mean. Kanata would only have one comment AC wise here even though he made five different comments.

Please provide two (2) proofs of activity in one the following forms:

➜ A post either on the network or the log community. A post counts if you have put it up and replied to comments on it as of when you post it. Please do not use a post with no replies from you as proof.

➜ Network post comments equaling to 10. It can be a thread with 10 comments from you, three threads with 3+3+4 comments from you. Enough to equal 10.

➜ Log post comments equaling to 5. It can be a thread with 5 comments from you, two threads with 3+2 comments from you, etc. Enough to equal 5.

➜ Mailbox post comments equaling to 15. It can be a thread with 15 comments from you, two threads with 9+6 comments from you, etc. Enough to equal 15.

If your character was accepted during the month of March:

➜ Any of the above with only one proof. You must make half of normal AC to stay in the game. This can include a post, 10 post comments, 5 log comments, OR 15 mailbox comments, not a combination of the two.

You are exempt from the activity check if you:

➜ Posted any hiatus during February 22nd through March 31st that lasted a week or more. There isn't a need to comment here if so, but if you'd like to pop in and say something OR if you have enough to post to AC anyway, feel free. Also, if you discuss a hiatus with me personally, it always helps to post it somewhere anyways just so I don't overlook it.

➜ Post with a strike. Simply reply with the form but instead of dates and links, put STRIKE. This is for those that wish to continue playing but don't have enough activity to make it this month. If you ask for a strike the next month, you will be removed from the game. If you make AC the next month, then your strike will be negated. If you take a strike and then hiatus the next month, your strike will roll over with you whenever you are next active.

Please do not post AC for others without their express permission. If someone would like to idle out by not responding to the AC, then that is their own business, and not the place of others to show activity for them.

Do not post activity until it is complete. You have a week to complete activity, so don't dilly dally! Please fill out the following form for each character you have. Feel free to put multiple characters in one comment. You have until the beginning of the new month to post, then you will be removed from the game. There will be no exceptions.
