( 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])

Re: Arthur Lester
What did your character do this month? Arthur spent the month mostly learning how to navigate Sweetwater, with the assistance of his Haven Street neighbours: after getting kidnapped and drugged by Norman and learning this wasn't an isolated incident, he sent an invite to the rest of the street to summon all the newcomers to meet up, discuss where they all came from and what to do about their situation. This resulted in him, Numbers and Norton hatching a scheme to break into Norman's house - and getting Arthur and Norman arrested.

March 2024
What did your character do this month? Bucky and Arthur tried to leave town to follow up on the toe tag; instead they found the town border, which finally opened Arthur up to avenues of investigation he can actually pursue, and he roped Numbers into assisting with that.
Re: March 2024
April 2024
What did your character do this month? After spending the later half of March chasing delivery trucks, Arthur, Numbers and Wrench escalated the endeavour by outright hijacking a truck and its driver. After getting punished by torture, Arthur came back and spread the word as to the barrier bubble and the torture treatment.

What did your character do this month? Arthur kept his head down this month, plus the quiet OOC time, but I'm looking forward to him getting into shit in July!
Re: June 2024
