we require two pieces of activity a month per character. the activity check will always be from the 1st through the 28th. the bonus days at the end of the month are there to give us, as mods, time to finish up the plot calendar, do removals, and otherwise do hard lifting mod stuff that usually comes at the end of the month without having to wait and wonder who's going to make activity.
upon acceptance of a new character, you have one week to make your first piece of activity and submit it to the activity check post. failure to do so will result in your character being removed, and their tale will open up again. this update will count towards your activity for the month! by putting a time limit on your first activity, we hope that this will discourage anyone from sitting on available spots until the end of activity check.
