Raise the Earth OOC

Hello everyone, we wanted to make a quick announcement. Due to the number of players on hiatus (including several mods), the recent staff changeover, and the upcoming holiday in addition to the pressures of the retail season for some of players who work, we've elected to make November a check-in month in addition to December. This means that for the upcoming Activity Check, you need not submit proof of activity, but simply check in. We also apologize for the slowness recently on our part.

Additionally, this was announced several days ago, but we wanted to repeat it here for anyone who missed: Lexi has stepped down as a moderator. We'd like to thank her for her time and service to the game.

That's all for now! Please stay tuned for further announcements in the coming days.

This is the activity check post for October, 2015. You have until 11:59 PM, PST, November 7th to submit your activity for each of your characters. If you don't get it in, your characters will be removed from the game, and you'll have to apply for them again! Read on for details.

( Requirements )

( Hiatuses )

( Strikes )

The following groups of characters don't need to submit activity this month, and will submit something else instead:
( Special circumstances )

These are the characters we found a valid hiatus that applies this month for; if you have activity, feel free to post it, but if you're on this list, you only need to check in for the month:

Player section:
<b>Player:</b> (Your handle!) <b>Contact:</b> (Some way for us to get in touch with you if we need to. Plurk, IM, having us PM a journal, whichever you prefer. But we need at least one.)

Character section:
<b>Character:</b> [REINCARNATION] | <user name="JOURNAL"> - Please include all journals that apply to your character! Which means if you are using alternate journals for combo apps or doppelgangers, they should be noted here! <b>Info Post:</b> <a href="LINK TO INFO POST">Link</a> (If your Echoes are somewhere other than in your info post, please provide a link to them IN your info post.) <b>HMD:</b> <a href="LINK TO HMD">Link</a> (You are required to have a “how’s my driving” post of some kind, and comments must be enabled on it. All of the other settings are up to you, and it doesn’t necessarily have to be in the character’s journal.) <b>Threads:</b> <a href="THREAD 1">Thread with A</a> | <a href="THREAD 2">Thread with B</a> (To clear the activity check, submit at least two threads, each at least two comments long, to have a total of ten or more comments. The full rules on what you can use are in the activity check post. There’s no bonus for submitting more than what you need. Comment counts are appreciated, but optional. Please make sure your links work before you turn your AC in! It saves us time and you having to go digging for threads again. If you want to take a strike, replace your thread links with a note that you’re doing so.) <b>Notes:</b> (Anything else we should know this month?)

This is the activity check post for September, 2015. You have until 11:59 PM, PST, September 8th to submit your activity for each of your characters. If you don't get it in, your characters will be removed from the game, and you'll have to apply for them again! Read on for details.

For this month’s AC, you will only be required to check in! However, we’re providing all the information regarding Activity Checks so you know what to expect in the future!
