The Legion [OOC]

This is the mid-cycle AC Check-In! For this check-in you are not required to post activity proofs, this is just to register that you're still here.

Keep in mind that while we will post other AC reminders on the mod plurk, this game does not give "Character X has not replied to AC yet" warnings. It is your responsibility to check the OOC or game plurk for announcements and post on time. ACs will also be listed on the game/plot schedule if you need reminders of when they're planned.

You may post multiple characters in the same comment.

New players, since this is just a check in, please also respond.

You must respond to this check by: 11/30/17 at 11:59 pm EST

This is the game's full Activity Check. Please familiarize yourself with the AC Policy before commenting:

ACTIVITY CHECK POLICY
REMINDERS:

• While we will replurk AC announcements, this game does not give "Character X has not replied to AC yet" warnings. It is the player's responsibility to check the OOC or game plurk for announcements and post on time.
  
• Posting all your characters in one post is fine.
  
• If you have a thread that is still ongoing, you may count all its current comments for this AC and mark off the point where they cut off with a note, then count any further comments on it towards next AC. (That means that if you had any logs continue after last AC cut off, those comments can count toward this one.)
  
• If claiming a CR credit, the activity proofs you list for that can also be listed as normal activity proofs. Example: If you have a 20-comment thread with someone that created new CR, you can list it both as "new cr" and as a 20-comment thread proof.
  
• If you cannot make AC, are not eligibile for an AC skip, and would not be eligible for a second warning, please still contact us in some way! You may not be eligible to skip AC or receive a new warning, but if you at least touch base with us about failing AC while the Activity Check is ongoing (instead of idling out), you'll have a reduced time to wait if you want to reapp back in later.
  
• The activity period being checked runs from the start of the last AC period to yesterday, with today as the start of the new AC period. That means all proofs for this AC must be from between: 08/25/17 to 10/24/17

NOTE ABOUT PLOTS: Players that participated in mod-initiated network posts tied to recent plots can treat that as a plot participation credit (which only requires 3 comments from your characters instead of 5), as the IC planning and reactions to the aftermath were part of the plots. Network posts where this applies are labeled with a "plot: [name of the plot]" tag.

SPECIAL NOTICE: Since the "Game of Throne" event is being threaded into player-initiated posts, comments to a player-initiated "Game of Throne" post can also count as a plot participation credit, which means only 3 comments from your character are required for the thread to count as a proof.

For Ongoing Characters that must make full AC with proofs this month, please fill out the following, and simply delete any sections or lines that aren't applicable:

<b>Player Name:</b> <b>Character Name Here</b> | <user name="characterjournalname"> <b>Are you applying for a CR Credit?</b> Y/N <b>If yes, what type of CR Credit?</b> New Cr, Finished Threads, OR plot/party log <b>CR Credit Links:</b> <a href="Link 1">Thread 1</a> <a href="Link 2">Thread 2</a> <a href="Link 3">Thread 3</a> ETC <b>Basic Activity Links:</b> (If using a plot thread as a credit, simply list with your normal activity proofs) <a href="Link 1">Thread 1</a> <a href="Link 2">Thread 2</a> <a href="Link 3">Thread 3</a> <a href="Link 4">Thread 4</a> ETC (If using a CR credit for Basic Activity, note it here, and what requirement it's being substituted for. Example: <b>1 CR Credit = 1 (20) comment thread</b>. Remember that you can only use the (1) CR credit once, either for Basic activity OR the Activity Bonus, not both.) <b>Are you applying for the Activity Bonus?</b> Y/N <b>Activity Bonus Links:</b> <a href="Link 1">Thread 1</a> <a href="Link 2">Thread 2</a> ETC (If using a CR credit for Activity Bonus, note it here, and what requirement it's being substituted for.

For new characters that haven't gone through a FULL AC yet, and have apped in more than two weeks before AC, please fill out the following for a check-in, and provide a single proof of activity that you introed the character. It doesn't have to fit any particular length (it can even just be one comment into a thread).

This is the game's full Activity Check.


SPECIAL NOTICE

Due to the summer slowdown from vacations and moves and whatnot (which led to the mods not entirely being on the ball for some things), we've decided that this AC will be slightly more relaxed than usual. As such, we're requiring the following:


CURRENT PLAYERS

Current Players With No Warnings:

- (1) of the usual AC proofs. (Instead of 2 proofs, like we usually require.)

This cannot be made up with a CR credit. It has to be actual activity. That said, as long as you can provide the one proof, you'll also automatically qualify for the Activity Bonus without having to provide anything extra.

Current Players With Warnings:

- (2) of the usual AC proofs. (Instead of 3 proofs, like we usually require of those who have warnings).

This also cannot be made up with a CR credit. This also would qualify you for the Activity Bonus, alongside satisfying your warning conditions.


NEW PLAYERS

- Your AC will be the same as our usual policy, either a check-in or a check-in with proof of intro, based on when you apped in.


This lessened AC will only apply for this AC period and the game will go back to its usual AC requirements next Full AC.

While we're not using our normal AC requirements, please familiarize yourself with the AC Policy for the section about what counts as as a proof before commenting:

ACTIVITY CHECK POLICY
THINGS TO REMEMBER:

✦ While we will replurk AC announcements, this game does not give "Character X has not replied to AC yet" warnings. It is the player's responsibility to check the OOC or game plurk for announcements and post on time.
✦ Posting all your characters in one post is fine.
✦ NPC Legionnaires and Villain NPCs are exempt from AC, however, their players must make AC for whatever other characters they have.
✦ If you forget to post to AC in time, and haven't notified us of a hiatus or AC skip, you will get cut, and that's that. The only exceptions that we will make are if we make a mistake in cutting someone ourselves, or if there was some kind of emergency. Please contact us if you think this applies.
✦ If you have a thread that is still ongoing, you may count all its current comments for this AC and mark off the point where they cut off with a note, then count any further comments on it towards next AC. (That means that if you had any logs continue after last AC those comments can count toward this one.)
✦ If claiming a CR credit, the activity proofs you list for that can also be listed as normal activity proofs. Example: If you have a 20-comment thread with someone that created new CR, you can list it both as "new cr" and as a 20-comment thread proof.
✦ Test Drive Meme threads can't be used for plot or cr credits, but can be used for comment-based activity proofs.
✦ If you fail to make the Basic Activity, you may receive a Warning that requires an extra activity proof the next AC period. Please make sure you require warnings sparingly, as there are consequences if the system is abused.
✦ You can claim one AC exemption per rolling year, if there are extenuating life circumstances. If you feel this applies, please contact us via PM or on the MOD CONTACT or HIATUS/DROP page.
✦ If you cannot make AC, would not be eligible for another warning, and feel there are no extenuating circumstances, please still contact us in some way! You may not be eligible to skip AC or receive a new warning, but if you at least touch base with us about failing AC while the Activity Check is ongoing (instead of idling out), you'll have a reduced time to wait if you want to reapp back in later.
✦ You can use multiple plot credits from the same plot if you participated in multiple parts/threads.
✦ The activity period being checked runs from the start of the last AC period to yesterday, with today as the start of the new AC period. That means all proofs for this AC must be from between: 12/25/16 to 02/21/17

NOTE FOR NEW PLAYERS: We skipped the Full AC in December, but players should treat this AC as if that Full AC in December was not skipped. IE, if you apped your character in before 12/25/16, the time when the Full AC would've been, your character is not considered "new" for this Full AC and you must provide full proofs. If you apped a character in between 12/26/16 and the present, your character is considered "new" for this AC and only requires one of the two types of check-ins.

NOTE FOR WARNED PLAYERS: If you received a warning for the last full AC we had in October, the lack of Full AC in December did not provide a pass. You still must provide the required extra activity for this AC, like we stated in a mod announcement on the December skip.

NOTE ABOUT PLOTS: Players that participated in network posts tied to recent plots can treat that as a plot participation credit (which only requires 3 comments from your characters instead of 5), as the IC planning and reactions to the aftermath were part of the plots. Network posts where this applies are labeled with a "plot: [name of the plot]" tag.

You must respond to this ACTIVITY CHECK by: 2/28/17 at 11:59 pm EST.

While we're still doing the November Mid-AC Cycle Check-in, the mods have decided to take it easy on everyone for the holiday season, so this is a notice that there will be no Full AC at the end of December. Everyone will automatically be granted a pass on Basic AC, and, as a special holiday present, everyone will also get the Activity Bonus. There won't even be a check-in.

This is to cut everyone a holiday break and also because the mods will be vacationing, partying, and/or drunk for a good chunk of the end of December.

Seasons Greetings, everyone!

EDIT: Just an addition, but for those who are on AC warning that requires extra proofs for your next full AC, we're going to let that pass for December, since everyone is getting an AC reprieve, but for the Jan-Feb AC period, we do still expect players on warning to provide the required AC proofs to get off warning during the next Full Activity Check at the end of February.

We don't feel it's fair to allow consequences to failing an AC slide, but also feel it wouldn't be fair to ask for the extra proofs during a season when so many are busy, either, so we hope that's a fair compromise!

The following character(s) has been dropped from the game:

- Franklin Delano Donut
- Tsunami

If you feel you are on this list by mistake or that there is some kind of mitigating circumstance, please contact the mods.
