( ACTIVITY. )
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: [LOG/NETWORK] thread with [Character’s First Name] (@[their username])
What did your character do this month? Describe your character’s month in Sweetwater and engagement with the events, their CR, and the setting.
May 2024
What did your character do this month? In May, Papyrus discovered a new housemate (two, if including the cat) in the form of a "son" going by John Mandrake. He also met Chell at his door asking for sugar, but mostly asking for gossip on the neighborhood. Retroactively back in April, Papyrus did at least show up to the "book club" with his brother, and contributed a little to the conversation by asking after Dr. Ravichandran.
I didn't make AC - catching Covid at the end of April messed up the end of The Move for me, and I've only recently been gathering the spoons to dip back into tagging again. If this counts as a strike, I'll be content w/ that, and if I'll be out for the time being I understand.
