April Activity Check
Full activity check guidelines here.
Viable posts take place within April.
Respond before May 7 at 11:59pm EST.

• Comment here with one of these filled out for every character you play. You may post all characters in one comment, but it is also fine to split them especially if some characters meet AC earlier than others.

• Make sure to fill out every field.

• If you are using less than 6 threads please delete the extras though you are welcome to show a little extra activity as long as it doesn't exceed 6 threads.

• Replace "THREAD" with a link to a qualifying thread your character participated in. Replace "#" with the number of comments in that thread. If you use a thread that includes over 29 comments you are welcome to write 29+ rather than counting all of it.

• Do not update the comment number once you've replied, but you are welcome to continue tagging. It will help us know there are at least that many comments in the thread.

• The simplest way to report your AC is to link only one thread at a time! If you can click on the link and see multiple threads, you did not do this. Do not assume we will know you mean all the threads or only the first thread or only your two longest threads. If you want more flexibility see these examples, otherwise just link one thread at a time even if that means linking in after the first comment on a mingle. We will still count that comment even if we don't see it!

Hiatus/New character: List whether it was a half or full hiatus. See the hiatus page for full details. If your character was accepted in the month of the activity check, say so here. Delete this line if neither are applicable.

Full AC is 30 comments.

Half AC is 15 comments if you are qualified with a hiatus or have a newly-accepted character. You don't need multiple posts to pass half AC.

Eligible comments must:
• Be from your character. (Not a pet NPC or counting your partner's comments.)
• Come from at least two different posts.
• Not come from more than six threads.
• Appear on a post with a date stamp within the month being checked regardless of when the comments were made.
• Be from posts tagged with your character's game tag.
• Be counted only once. You can count the post itself or mingle starter if you made it, but not for multiple threads.
• Be linked by individual thread.

Any character who was admitted in April must respond, but is only responsible for half AC.

Examples: Check out previous AC examples from Haunt and Rica.
Questions: Here.

Because this thread actually contains a threadjack it actually becomes 2 threads instead of 1 (Okay, it becomes 3, but 1 isn't relevant to your character's AC.) When presenting more than one thread you need to clarify that it is more than one thread.

Of course, linking separately isn't possible with threadjacks, so you just need to write it in a way where we can see at a glance that you are presenting two threads. Like this:

10 + 6

(My count is likely different because I included the post as 1 which you're allowed to do once. Not for each thread from a post.)

There is no need to redo anything for you submission this month. Threadjacks are definitely one of the more complicated entries to make.

Your characters will all be removed from the follow up post. Thank you for the new links.

However, the new links for Sarah show many threads instead of just her threads. In the future please just link from the beginning of your character's comment when they are tagging into a mingle or post. (If they start the mingle please tag at the second comment to prevent seeing all the threads.)

You have linked an entire post. Our AC is by thread, not post. Your post contains 6 different threads. You could link it by counting each thread separately and displaying it like this:

4 + 15 + 7 + 16 + 2 + 13

This shows us exactly how many threads are being presented, so that we know you didn't go over the maximum amount of threads.

However, this presentation only works this month because you are a new player so you only need half AC. Any month in which you'd need full AC would require threads from at least two different posts. Also, if this post had more than 6 threads (the max allowed to represent AC) it would have been invalid.

The safest, easiest way to present AC is by linking all threads individually.

An ideal presentation for you AC this month could have been as simple as:

16

You could have also included the 15 thread one for a total of 31, however since both threads are on the same post it wouldn't have been passing for full AC, so the 16 clears you for half AC on its own.

There is no need to redo your submission for this month, but please reread all the guidelines for next time and look at submissions from Haunt and Rica as examples for a better idea of what AC should look like. If you have any questions, please let us know!

I failed AC! ;o; Shame on me! I got crazy busy with work in April all of a sudden and I should have taken a hiatus, but kept putting it off thinking I could get AC done. My big mistake. I hope I can keep this dummy around and make up for AC times two or something in May.

Just make sure to pass in May. No need to do double, but I'm sure the players would consider it welcome! You're always welcome to take safety hiatuses and then keep playing as much as you can in the hopes of erasing the hiatus entirely or downgrading a full to a half, but we understand that sometimes the month can get away from you. Oh, you can also take a half hiatus all the way up until the very end of the month being checked if that helps in the future.
