CHECK IN: JULY
CHECK-IN: JULY
the basics
Hello, players, and welcome to our activity check for July! 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 August. You may have only one of these tokens at a time.
This activity check will close on Friday, July 31 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:
- Daz (Pudding Charlotte)
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 July 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 August.
- SUMMARY: Let us know what your character has been up to this past month! For the July 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: 5+ log
summary: Law showed up and Rosi's entire month has revolved around that one fact. They've had some roller coaster moments trying to get readjusted after such a heartbreaking separation and Law's entire thirteen years of growing up. Then they went to the Helix Station and managed not to die, so that's pretty good, but now Rosi's just super on edge until Law recuperates, meanwhile he keeps considering cannibalism thanks to the world eater getting into his head, and I'm sure things can only go well from there.
