Activity Check
PLEASE NOTE: After some deliberation, the mods have made one major change and one minor one - don't worry, they're both in everyone's favor. Major change - for this AC only, you will not be required to provide any samples of qualifying activity, due to the holidays and the slowness of January. Just the summary is required. Minor change - we are asking that ALL CHARACTERS post to AC, including our newbies. Please see more below.
AC RULES:
++ Copy/paste and fill out the above textbox in a comment to this post. You may comment once for all of your characters or make separate comments for each, as you choose.
++ This check is for activity spanning from DECEMBER 1 to JANUARY 31.
++ You will need only an Activity Summary for each character in-game. (See below for details.)
++ Characters accepted in the most recent Application round are not required provide an AC Summary. They will, however, be expected to check in this time around, and to provide AC starting with the next check.
++ You have one week from the date of this posting to submit AC for all of your characters.
ACTIVITY SUMMARY:
An activity summary consists of a small paragraph explaining what your character has been up to since the previous Activity Check (or since arriving in the game if you are new). This can be as simple or as detailed as you would like! At the minimum, be sure to hit any events your character has participated in (either game events or character plots) and where they're currently residing. If you'd like to get more detailed (such as drawing up CR charts, mentioning what Guardian they've talked with, or adding links) we're not going to stop you, as this will make a handy future reference for you as well as for us!
The activity summary will help the mods in determining future Guardian plans or interactions for your characters, and especially will keep us from missing anything important about your character. In no way will your activity summary have any effect on you passing or failing activity check, unless it is completely absent. In other words, doing the minimum on this won't hurt you, although going above and beyond can certainly help!
EXCLUSIONS AND EXEMPTIONS:
All characters are expected to participate in an Activity Check. If a character has been in the game for a month or more, he/she must have an Activity Summary. Anyone who arrived in the most recent application cycle won't be expected to provide any samples of activity or a summary for that AC, but they must at least check in so we know they are present and consider themselves active in the game, even if they don't have "enough" activity yet to show of it.
In order to qualify for an exemption to the Activity Check, you must have posted a hiatus of 2 weeks or longer to the official hiatus page during the period covered by the Activity Check. You may not request back-to-back exemptions, regardless of any length hiatus you may take. If you are unable to meet the requirements for activity due to real-life circumstances/an emergency, you MUST communicate with the mods before the end of the Activity Check.
FAILING ACTIVITY CHECK
If you fail to post to an Activity Check within the week that it is open and you have not contacted the mods beforehand, then any characters not posted will be dropped from the game. The mods will put up a list of characters in danger of being dropped at the end of Activity Check, at which point you (the character's player) will have three days to contact the mods and provide AC and an explanation for failing it. After those three days have passed, the drops will be official, and the characters will be removed from the Taken list and Player Contact page.
