CHECK-IN: JUNE
CHECK-IN: JUNE
the basics
Hello, players, and welcome to our activity check for June! 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 through the entire duration of the AC period. As a reminder, this month is check-in only!
Submitting an AC proof of 5 log comments/10 network comments or an equivalent combination will give one bonus explore token for use in July. You may have only one of these tokens at a time.
This activity check will close on Tuesday, June 30 at 11:59 PM EST. 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:
- Erica (Jason Grace)
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 The Next Night has three parts.
- COMMENTS: For the June AC period, we do not require full activity in order to pass. Just a check in is necessary! However, linking an AC proof of 5 log or 10 network/TDM comments or an equivalent combination will earn a bonus explore token for use in July.
- SUMMARY: Let us know what your character has been up to this past month! For the June AC period, we would still like you to fill this section out! 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 AC proof if you like.) 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
- 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.

character: Rosinante Donquixote
journal:
comments: 6 log
summary: Out of food and cigarettes and patience, Rosi hung out with Mary, thought real hard about repairing that wrecked boat hull in the scrapyard, and talked to a few people about things like trying to contact Pluto, who never arrived on time, and possibly searching out the Wild Hunt's hiding spot to make sure they're still alive.
And then he kinda went Parade-nuts for a while before heading off on an explore with Kuai and Cao Pi in search of static because god maybe there's a hundred year old cigarette out there in the woods he can smoke.
threads: Mostly I just wanna show off this mask tbh
explore token: Yes!

character: Zihuan Cao Pi
journal:
summary: mostly behind the scenes organizing. He avoided the festival almost entirely, putting in a cameo during the mask portion and politely pretending to make a mask only to disappear before finishing it. Once the sacrifices began he noped right the fuck out and went to prepare the Invincible like a fort in case there was another round of murderdeathkill...thankfully this time there wasn't but he basically defended it unsung and unnoticed. And then went exploring with Rosinante and Kuai Liang and boy that got bloody fast, but they seem to have found the radio tower.

character: javert
journal:
summary: javert helped rebuild the church and the post office, and saved the postmaster general from the piranhas. he's been opening up a little more emotionally, crying for what may be the first time in his life. he moved in with soldat and misty, and he's been avoiding the spirit's celebration as much as possible. in between patrols and classes and rebuilding projects, he's also been helping out in solis' lab, working on finding a way to pull new people into beacon.
threads: proof that javert has a heart
explore token: no

character: Robin Gunn
journal:
summary: Robin's still laying low out in the woods after the whole "lighthouse collapse" thing. She'll be slinking her way back into town again soon, but she made a network post to announce that she's alive and well, at least.
threads: network post

character: Bucky/Soldat
journal:
comments: Log - 15 comments
summary: Soldat tried to stretch the remaining supplies as long as possible, avoided the hell out of the newly discovered labs and the main event out of fear of violence, and invited Javert to live at the bed and breakfast with him and Misty (and maybe Pudding if she's still there?). He and Javert did a shit-ton of building and repairing things, too.
threads: Soldat no longer has any handlers! This is a huge important thing that just kind of happened in passing. Also he has Aziraphale's lantern :(
explore token: Yes!
character: Stone
journal:
comments: I could probably squeak this out, but I don't really care about a second explore token for him, so I'm not gonna bother :)
summary: Stone watched people meet Clara, made a mask for the spirits, and then watched in worried confusion as everyone went a little nuts.
threads: Masaomi gave him voluntary physical affection! He's comin' for you next, Rosi...
explore token: Nah

character: Ftz Kreiner
journal:
comments: n/a
summary: Fitz contributed a bit to the lab research, focusing on getting more poor lost souls to Beacon since there's safety in numbers. For the spirit's festival he took part in masks, music, and spirit-gnoshing and...well, consequences need to be worked out. In any event, he's a bit shaken by his behavior and is likely to be a bit more wary going forward.

character: Kuai Liang
journal:
summary: After returning from the lab last month he immediately set off on another exploration with Cao Pi and Rosinante and now has a new hole in his hand he didn't ask for. But they potentially made a handsy friend so he took hand damage for the team. Once they're back he spent some time bandaging himself up and pretending nothings wrong because who cares about injuries.

character: Pudding Charlotte
journal:
comments: All of my canonmate TDM threads will probably be made gamecanon.
summary: If I'd known what I know now I'd have hiatused. α( α )α I've oocly been some kind of sick for all of June and done /handwobble/ amount of tags, mostly with newbies on the TDM.
Pudding has been kind of on autopilot: making daily group breakfasts available at The Invincible, retaking inventory, fussing with the plantlife in the greenhouse. I'd talked with a couple plot mods about doing a summary Explore of research for little food things here and there that don't necessarily constitute a whole entire explore one at a time on their own; if possible I'd like to say she's been doing research and poking about for that (outside of the event effects).
I'll update in general / on next month's check-in if anything of note comes up backtagging We All Still Die.
