Activity Check - October

[sinfulmods]

Hi everyone!

It's AC time again! Starting today, November 1st, you will have one week (until end of November 7th) to show us what you've been up to during October.

Please provide AC in one of the following ways:

If you play ONE character in CoS, your AC requirement is 15 comments for a normal month, 20 comments if you needed a Save. Not more than three threads can be used to pass AC, and the minimum comment count per thread is five.

IF YOU PLAY TWO OR THREE CHARACTERS, PLEASE ONLY POST TO AC ONCE - JUST REPEAT THE TEXT BOX FOR EACH CHARACTER. THANK YOU.

If you play TWO characters in CoS, your AC requirement is 10 comments per character for a normal month, 15 comments if you needed a Save. Not more than two threads per character can be used to pass AC, and the minimum comment count per thread is five.

If you play THREE character in Cos, your AC requirement is 7 comments per character for a normal month, 10 comments if you needed a Save. The 7 or 10 comment requirement must be a single thread. If you absolutely have to use two threads for a character, your comment requirement is a minimum of four comments per thread. Yes, that means you need at least 8 if you split it.

Threads posted for AC must contain the majority of comments in the month being checked (preferably from a post in that month, though late posts from the month before are acceptable), with not more than two comments per thread in the week of AC check itself. So this month, you should be linking threads that are on posts made in October, or the very last week of September where the majority of your comments are in October. In this instance, the majority means more than one half.

If you required a Save last month or the Mods requested it, you will need to provide the safety amount of comments listed above. If you were on hiatus for more than two weeks or were accepted in the most recent app cycle, you just need to check in.

AC rules can be found HERE, if you want to check up on them! We recommend you check the rules regularly, all the same.

See? Easy stuff!

We also have this handy form for you to use, if that sort of thing floats your boat. Please adjust and copy as needed for the number of characters you play:

<b>CHARACTER NAME</b> (<user name="USERNAME">) - <a href="URL GOES HERE">THREAD #1</a> [ NUMBER OF TAGS ] - <a href="URL GOES HERE">THREAD #2</a> [ NUMBER OF TAGS ]

Next AC will be posted on December 1st while Aria bemoans the start of a down under summer.

State of the City : Guilt

[sinfulmods]

WEEK 46 : Guilt
November 27 - December 03
After last week’s tendency to lash out, the City seems to have offered a bit of a balm: even if they weren’t as harsh as they could have been last week, citizens and Chosen are now contrite. Maybe they didn’t even do the thing they’d been accused of, but taking responsibility is the mature thing to do! If it happens to fester into anxiety and guilt that follows them around all week, then so be it.

(Players will decide how and to what degree their characters are affected by this and all of the prominence shifts to come. It is entirely optional to be involved with the prominence events. This will last for one in-game week and end on November 22. Please remember that we are on a 3:1 day ratio!)

State of the City At Large:

The Weather
The snow that fluttered down at the beginning of the week has now decided to settle in for good. All reports suggest a blizzard is moving into the City, and temperatures are definitely down in the colder range. Make sure to dress appropriately!

Crime
There seems to be a larger influx of Lust infiltrating the City once more, vexing the CSPD thoroughly. No related deaths have turned up yet, but they’re not holding their breath that that will remain true.

Crime has generally settled into a constant state, with people apparently sticking to what they’re doing. The major crime rings know what they’re doing, the shadow demons still present know what they’re doing, and no one is really branching out.

Rumours
Rumour has it that the citizens of the City are still sending Temperance their dollhouse furniture, though there’s no news on how much he actually likes it.

The rest of the City is oddly quiet. No news on whether or not this is a good thing, but we can only hope.

Additional Notes
Yusha, a new Chosen-run lounge, is opening up as of November 26.

Questions? Like to arrange a meeting with an NPC? Fire away! If you wish to arrange a meeting with an NPC, please give the mods details on what you’d like to achieve so that we’re capable of providing.

Additionally, feel free to use this as a plotting post for the upcoming week!
