ACTIVITY CHECK: October

[goosemods]

ACTIVITY CHECK

It's time for Gooseberry's monthly Activity Check! To pass AC, everyone is required to present two pieces of activity per character. (Characters who are accepted after this point are exempt from AC. Characters who were accepted after the 15th only require one piece of activity.) The following primary activity counts:

• First person journal posts


• Third person logs/scenes (open scene or minimum 3 posts by your character)


• A public IC/OOC post created by your character


• Two IC/OOC scenes also count for the equivalent of one primary activity.

Your character can also use one of the following for activity, but only if they were accepted before October 15. (If you are seeking the OK for a fifth, you can use two.)

• A note, gift or letter/owl sent by your character


• A comment thread with at least 6 comments by your character, not posted on your character's own journal post. It must be a single link, but branching threads count. This means, if you go to the bottom of a comment and copy the Thread link (e.g. ), and we are able to count 6 of your character's comments from your link, it counts.


• A mostly prose scene in an IC/OOC post with a minimum of 3 comments by your character. Mods reserve the right to decide if your scene doesn't count as "mostly prose" or isn't developed enough to qualify. Two IC/OOC scenes also count for the equivalent of one primary activity, i.e. you can submit three IC/OOC scenes to pass.

Only activity posted from October 1–31 qualifies for AC.

Other notes and rules

You have until Tuesday, October 31 at 11:59 PM MT to get this month's activity in, i.e. any posts from now until November 1 counts for activity. If you are unable to meet activity requirements, please check in anyway and we will grant your character(s) a strike. Provided it is not their third strike, you will be allowed to keep your character(s) for another month. Anyone who has not checked in for AC will be cut from the cast on November 1.

CHARACTER LIMIT APPROVALS

[goosemods]

Reply to this comment with this month's activity if you want approval for a 3rd, 4th or 5th character.

To qualify for a 3rd or 4th character, you must pass AC with all of your current characters, and not be on hiatus. Once you've gotten the OK from the mod account (i.e. we've acknowledged your AC comment), you may put in a hold.

To qualify for a 5th character, you must provide a) three pieces of activity per character, and b) you may not have a single strike on your activity with any of your four characters for three months straight. Once you've gotten the OK for AC and your petition has been approved, you may put in a hold for a 5th.

HIATUSES

[goosemods]

Regarding our hiatus policy: for AC purposes, we will only be counting notices on the Hiatus post or in the OOC comm's hiatus/slow posting tag. We will accept "I'm back from unexpected hiatus" notices so long as they're posted before AC goes up. You will need to be on hiatus for about two weeks before we'll halve your AC requirements, but if you were away for more than a week and you need a pass, you can reply to this message and I'll grant you a pass. If you are on hiatus when the AC post goes up, you will be exempt from AC.

In all other cases, you'll have to take an activity strike, sorry! :(
