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: Network thread with Numbers workingthenumbers, partial log threads with Arthur lestercraft, Margaret regulararmybrat, group thread.

What did your character do this month? Following that dinner party of alarming intel and even more alarming plans, Papyrus doubled down on working to be sure he can avoid trouble when he needs to. He stayed within the lockdown barrier after taking a couple walks to note where the boundaries were, traded some food, and made sure to attend the Valentine's Day party in full suit attire. When the question of a book club came up, he offered literary suggestions but bailed at the first hint of being the one to throw it. Papyrus also attended a few of those physics lectures - and I need to follow up on the option having him join as a student.
