( 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.

Rodion Raskolnikov / Crime & Punishment / Husband
january 2024
What did your character do this month? At the New Year’s Eve celebration, Raskolnikov met Sokka; afterwards, while looking for information on the people he saw during the memshare, he found Bucky in the library, and they’ve been saying some not-HOA-approved things about the memshare situation in particular and Sweetwater as a whole. His house lost power during the snowstorm, and he went door-to-door asking for more details about the power outage and offering candles and supplies to anyone who might be struggling. He didn’t do much during the mannequin situation except hide and mope, although he did encounter Beth hiding in a clothing rack. Norman got his hands on him after the mannequin incident, so Raskolnikov spent the end of the month being generally miserable and wandering aimlessly around the town.

february 2024
What did your character do this month? Raskolnikov attended the Conspiracy Dinner Party, where he learned that other people were kidnapped and drugged, and came to the conclusion that the best thing to do is to shut up and stay out of Norman’s way, which he did throughout most of the month of February. During the dinner party, he briefly introduced himself to Margaret, and revealed that he’s From A Long Time Ago, Actually. He also spent some time trying to figure out how to use the network (and for the most part failing miserably); when Numbers proposed his book club, Raskolnikov brought up Victor Hugo’s The Last Days of a Condemned Man, though the conversation quickly spiraled into an explanation of his extraordinary man theory. Finally, he had a rather impressive argument with Joan on the TDM.

What did your character do this month? Raskolnikov had a quiet month, even with the event. He ran into Chell at the supermarket, and they’ve formed something of an unlikely alliance. The earthquake sent Numbers to Rodya’s house, where they discussed the likeliness of the earthquake being a conspiracy; Raskolnikov also came across Arthur in the earthquake’s aftermath.

What did your character do this month? During the mandatory lockdown, Raskolnikov met Vox and Renee. He also came across Chell, and they're planning on sneaking out to do some recon with the excuse that she felt claustrophobic and he's just making sure she doesn't get into trouble. There's no way that can go wrong. Later, he had a conversation with Norton that was initially about the smoke in the air but quickly turned into Norton telling Rodya about that time he was handcuffed to a bed in a burning building.
