( ACTIVITY. )

Activity Check



Here at Silent Spring, AC is relatively low to accommodate the busy lives of a largely working, late-20s-and-older playerbase, and so that the game is still playable for people whose lives during weekdays (or whichever days work) relegate them to being weekend taggers.

We require one (1) AC proof per month, either a thread of 5 log comments, an event toplevel posted no later than the 20th of the month, 15 short network comments, or 5 multiparagraph network comments. You may not use a thread with the same character for two AC periods in a row.

You can post AC at any time in the month, the earlier, the better! This makes it easier for mods to space out administrative work through the month.

We allow for hiatuses of 1 month, up to 3 a year, not back to back. Players get one strike if they cannot make AC (with the exception of extraneous circumstances - please explain these to mods as soon as you are able to even if you’re not sure you’ll be unable to make AC and just think you might not make AC).

All of this said, think of AC proofs as a small cross-section of expected activity, the absolute bare minimum. This is a very small game, and there aren’t unlimited slots. Out of consideration to the people who didn’t make it in after you, please don’t squat.

New players should post a comment with their handle in the subject line, and then reply to that comment with the following subject line: Character Name | Canon | Role (Husband, Wife, Child).
For each month, post a new comment in reply to the subject line with your character’s name and canon, putting [Month] [Year] (ex: “January 2024”) in this comment’s subject line.

AC PROOF: arrival log with norton ([personal profile] pharadyne), event log with norton and event log with margaret ([personal profile] regulararmybrat)

What did your character do this month? sam's first month here was relatively quiet as she adjusted to everything and i struggled with covid. she managed to not attack her new husband so yay for her (or him?). she spent a lot of time inside of their house, not wanting to get too involved because... there is a part of her that really does think she might have just lost her mind. but after seeing maragert getting attacked by birds she attempted a rescue, getting the other woman into her house and attacking the birds with a broom.

AC Proof: [LOG] top level including threads with Homelander ([personal profile] justanotherjohn) and Norton ([personal profile] pharadyne)

What did your character do this month? Sam had her first Billy hallucination since arriving! She saw him in a punch bowl where he encouraged her to start killing people to either get home or take this place over. Maybe it was the combination of alcohol and heat or maybe this place is finally getting to her. She admitted to Homelander what the hallucination was but was a bit more careful when talking about it to Norton.
