ACTIVITY CHECK: SEPTEMBER


ACTIVITY CHECK: SEPTEMBER


the basics

Hello, players, and welcome to our activity check for September! Our AC is self-reporting, meaning that all players must comment to this post, even if you have a hiatus or need to take a strike. The one exception to this is if you're on a hiatus that covers the entire duration of the AC period. Characters with a hiatus lasting two weeks or longer do not need to meet the required comment count, but they still need to check in on this post and complete the other AC requirements.

This activity check will close on Monday, September 30 at 11:59 PM EST, and any characters who fail to respond will be swept from the game. We do not post AC warning lists, so it's up to you to remember to post!


The following players have hiatused during this AC period:
  • Trix - Davina Claire - exempt, must check in

  • Elizabeth - Clarke Griffin - exempt, must check in

  • Kait - Arya Stark - exempt, must check in


The following players have taken a strike within the past two months and must make AC this month:
  • Bee - Pikachu

  • Margot - Wanda Maximoff


If you have extenuating circumstances regarding this AC period, please PM/PP us directly! We'll leave you off of the above public lists if you contact us privately, as well.


the details

AC for In the Night has three parts.
  • COMMENTS: We require a total of 10 comments, with network and TDM comments counting as half a comment. So, 20 network/TDM comments would equal 10 for the purposes of AC, and 4 would equal 2, and so on. Any combination (such as 5 log, 10 network) is fine as long as it adds up to 10. Please use no more than four threads as AC proofs, and make sure to tell us whether threads are meant to be network or log comments! We'll assume network for everything except threads in the log comm if it's not otherwise listed.

  • SUMMARY: Let us know what your character has been up to this past month! This may include character developments, growth in CR, neat plot discoveries, or anything else that struck you as noteworthy for your character this month. These short summaries should be no more than a paragraph, as they're intended to give us just the gist of what everyone's doing in game. The content of this write-up will not be judged, (so feel free to be entirely informal,) we just want to keep track of what's going on with the characters since we can't read every thread.

  • THREADS: This last part of AC is entirely optional. If you choose, you may link us to threads that are important for plot (or player plot) reasons or for character development, or that you would like to draw our attention to for whatever other reason. If your character is up to something that you think we should be aware of, link us. (These can be threads you used for the 10 comments requirement.) Again, this last part is optional.

Information gathered from these last two elements may be integrated into events and other plot points.


the mini faq

  • What threads can I use for AC? Any threads that take place in our [community profile] logsinthenight or [community profile] networkinthenight communities may be used for AC, as well as threads that take place in characters' personal inboxes or on the TDM for the month. Please note that TDM threads will always count as network threads for the purposes of AC, regardless of their content.

  • Can I use threads started before this AC period? What about using a thread for more than one activity check? Yes, though only the comments made during this AC period will count toward activity.

  • Sooo I can keep using the same TDM thread with a player from outside the game for months and months and still pass AC? Well, hold your horses there, buckaroo. If we notice a player passing AC by way of using the same thread a bunch of times, using a lot of TDM threads, or other "iffy" things like using a lot of threads with the same characters/players or continuously collecting the majority of their AC in the last few days of the month, we may privately reach out to the player to ask for a wider variety of threads in the future. None of these things are explicitly disallowed, but we do want to make sure players are active participants in the game since we have limited slots. All of that stuff will be handled privately on a case-by-case basis.

[personal profile] callada 2019-09-22 04:20 am (UTC)(link)
player: Lauren
character: Rosinante Donquixote
journal: [personal profile] callada

comments: 10+ log
summary: Rosinante has taken the month to mostly lie low and recuperate from the lighthouse mission that lead to so many deaths. He's been keeping tabs on friends and acquaintances and generally encouraging people to work together and share whatever they learn, especially after the World Eaters revelation. Privately, he knows there is good reason to keep things secret, and is especially concerned about what Daylight found on Winters' tablet regarding Will's apparent cheating at survival and what that might mean. He's working on his star map with input from Will, fished up a seafoam clone that creeped him right the fuck out, and none of this has stopped him from working on boats yet. In fact, he almost wants to do that even more out of pure spite toward Robin, who he distrusts greatly.
threads: Rosi and Daylight discussing Winters' tablet.

summary: Will showed her a photo of a World Eater. Attended the town meeting and side-eyed the would-be leaders. Talked to Will about the possibility of mines and using them to hide the light from the World Eaters. Encountering a Giant Spirit while looking for signs of animal life.

journal: [personal profile] mayorly

comments: 4 + 4 + 3 Log Comments
summary: Most of her arrival has been met with Allie's surprise by the lack of organisation in Beacon. She'd like to introduce the concept of setting aside food rations in case the Ferry stops coming. Group meals for everyone. General things that help everyone survive as a whole instead of going solo. Just New Ham things, tbh.

summary: Aziraphale arrived in Beacon and moved into a cabin with Crowley, who subsequently invited Bucky Barnes to live in their home. He has spent most of his time trying to communicate with the spirits, particularly The Librarian and Hozier, and will eventually take on a formal project to try and translate their speech. He went on the expedition to check out East Beacon, came back in time for selfie adventures, and is currently in the middle of assisting in church rebuild efforts, though he has also promised to help Misty with her garden.

comments: 10 Log Comments
summary: He's been incredibly homesick especially with the Lantern Festival and meeting a few people who remind him of home. He very much distrusts Robin and is leaning towards trying to take information from her by force if they have to. He's getting frustrated with not knowing what to do especially with information being trickled down to them. He's going to try and make friends with the forest spirits while keeping track of the people he cares about.

comments: Network Thread, +12 (+6) + Log Thread, +8
summary: Daylight is trying to get back into the groove of things after his death. He participated in the town hall meeting held by Cao Pi and made some semi-helpful suggestions and comments! He's also participating in group activites, wanting to help out in things like cleaning up the church and participating in the scavenger hunt.

threads: Daylight discovered important information upon searching + discovering Winters' tablet. He shared these findings with the only following individuals, in order: Coraline, Rosinante, Riku, and Jason. The general agreement is to keep quiet about this for the time being - Something Daylight doesn't like but will agree to, for now. He also gave the Postmaster General a gift! That's totally important enough to mention. (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6.)

Coming to terms (not) with being dead and Eliot being dead too. Also, he doesn't believe anyone here is actually dead, but it working from the theory that they were all portaled out of their lives / timelines just before death.

summary: Never one to skimp on research, Bruce has set himself up in the museum and is investigating Beacon from a topographical and historical standpoint. He's been talking to people who have searched town hall to pick their brains and he's asked about experiences with local forest spirits and the npcs. He's also requested a few items from Rastus that were just delivered and he's putting together a very small group to go looking for a mine in the area and generally he's just being very straaaaange and offputting. He's tried out the Bruce Wayne persona a few times and is trying to determine where it will best serve his interests while also asking people about their hobbies making tracking devices and wanting to look at dead bodies. He's a weird kid with like. 0 friends.

summary: Bucky showed up in a panic, got adopted by a few people, and moved in with Crowley and Aziraphale. Supposedly temporarily, but I'm not sure if he's ever gonna leave. He made a ton of little boats for the mini-event, even though he didn't really know why for most of it, then followed Crowley and Aziraphale off on the eastern expedition. After they got back, he shot Scarlett in her room in the Invincible (oops) and clocked Crowley on the side of the head in their house (double oops) while in the middle of a nightmare.
threads: The windows in Scarlett's room in the Invincible are kinda smashed to hell.

There, she made her peace (as much as possible anyways), and is now doing her best to be out and about again. She's in capture the flag, helping to clean the church, and doing the scavenger hunt.

summary: After losing his actual shit at the beginning of the month, Vanitas spent most of the time languishing in his own misery, isolating himself from pretty well everyone. He was drawn out just long enough to take a bit of an interest in the Capture the Flag game, though spent most of the time trying to sabotage it. Otherwise he's been watching people try to rebuild the church and not helping in the effort, but has been loitering around Hozier's trap door when people aren't looking.

summary: Nothing of spectacular note! Broke a lot of little nonessential bits off the ship with Kakyoin, settling in, side-eyeing the entire place, looking to get a gardening/farming operation set up because trusting the ferry is tempting fate in a big way. Not thinking about death. Sorting out who she'll trust, short term.
