ACTIVITY CHECK: OCTOBER


ACTIVITY CHECK: OCTOBER


the basics

Hello, players, and welcome to our activity check for October! 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 Thursday, October 31 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:
  • Jejune - Coraline Li - check in required
  • Laura - Noriaki Kakyoin - check in required
  • Chrissy - Nancy Wheeler - check in required
  • Zelly - Steve Harrington - check in not required
  • Sydney - Kuai Liang - check in required
  • Trix - Davina Claire - check in required


The following players have taken a strike within the past two months and must make AC this month:
  • No one!

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.

player: Lauren
character: Rosinante Donquixote
journal: [personal profile] callada

comments: 10+ log
summary: Rosinante suffered an arm fracture in the dock/ferry crash but hasn't let that keep him down. He's spent the month working on boats and stars and meeting people interested in both, suffered severe and vivid hallucinations (and almost shot Kuai in the process), and is afraid he'll have to start rationing his cigarettes under the assumption that the ferry might never operate again.

summary: mostly just the standard arrival fare — applying magic to problems like injuries and wet hair, arguing with people about morality, and generally being a little too much at all times. she also got settled in her cabin and applied a number of wards to the area thanks to all those pesky ghosts, and will be very glad to peek her head back out come november to get started on Proper Investigative Methods.

character: Aziraphale
journal: [personal profile] lunchbreaks

comments: Aziraphale apology network post (115)
summary: Okay so the first of the month, Aziraphale helped crash the ferry, stayed to help rescue people/things, got yelled at, made a network post to apologize, got yelled at some more, had Misty, Daylight, Luna, Eliot, Eleven and Molly to come pep talk him into feeling less shitty. And shortly after realizing he couldn't miracle the boat back together, he got Stone to help him cut down some trees to make wood to build a new dock and hopefully a new ferry. I forgot to mention that he broke his arm and some ribs and ended up flying after Crowley to the beach so that's now public information.

During Bury a Friend, he finally discovered Sergeant, had a bunch of mutual spooky hallucinations, got gaslit by a ghostly apparition of Gabriel to nearly douse his own lantern, got saved by Crowley, and then finally moved his relationship status from it's complicated to okay, it's still complicated but you know, shrug emoji eyes emoji dancer emoji.

Then he became a pretty princess, thanks to the costume pile.

summary: Pretty lowkey month for Allie. She's still finding her feet and on the fence as to whether she wants to speak up about how she thinks need to change. She has been talking with a few people, and has even started opening up a little to Peter. Um. She also thinks her dead sister may have been part of the group that was reset (Will's Group) so. There's. That.

summary: Scarlett's month has been more about interpersonal relationships (in that she sucks at them). She may have also. Oh idk. Asked Will if he could network spy on Crowley. She wasn't too messed up by the events because tbh. It was a lot like being at home.

comments: ¨Logs Bury a friend and Log Ferry. Extra Tag-in

summary: Quentin spent a few days locked in the cabin with Eliot Waugh after ferry crashed, and he exhausted himself using too much magic and getting slammed with a beam. He spent the event of Bury a Friend growing more and more detached from reality, until he ended up walking to the river. Pending on this kills him or not.

After the event, he's back at the cabin, licking his mental wounds and being very upset and disillusioned with this whole place!

Got hecked up in a bad way by the end of Bury A Friend and has been conspicuously absent from Beacon since.

comments: 10+ log comments
summary: She helped save some supplies from the ferry. Eleven is getting regular lessons from Peter Parker at the library, followed by getting ice cream from the parlor. She wants to try every flavour, unless Peter warns her away. She had a panic attack during a self-defense lesson with Bucky. She's still wearing the plague doctor-esque beak/cone over her nose/mouth that Misty made for the Corpse Flowers. And of course, she may or may not have died or worse on the "bury your friend" exploration with Elena and Wanda. If the outcome of that + date of the log allow for it, she will use her telekinesis to help with dock rebuilding.

He has been moping around and generally pissing everyone off with his sorry-not-sorry attitude, including having his username changed by Will for being such an asshat. He is currently planning his next escapade, which may or may not involve storming the Lighthouse. He is also slowly in the process of dealing with his affections for Aziraphale.

comments: 20+ log
summary: in the aftermath of the ferry crash bruce made a few new friends while loading and carting supplies into town. he did a great deal of planning for a later expedition, to figure out what tools he'd need and who he'd want to bring for support which meant leaving cryptic messages for people. he asked rosalind about plutonium and asked jason todd if he was a future version of himself. when the hallucinations started for bruce they were auditory, not visual, so he didn't struggle in the same way as some of his peers. he broke into jason's house, activated peter's nagging instincts, did shots with vanitas, and sort of... gently kidnapped riku to save him from himself.

comments: 10+ log
summary: Vanitas has spent the better part of the last month in bed, chiefly sleeping. He poked his head out into the margarita mixer that happened not long ago, learned how to use his little camper over, and came out again to have a throw down with Riku and destroy the boathouse. After that he was lured out by the Bury a Friend event because all that sweet sweet negative emotion gives him a spike in power and if Vanitas likes anything, it's feeling powerful— something he definitely hasn't been feeling for a while.
