ACTIVITY CHECK

Comment with your name, character, character journal, character canon, and links to activity samples. REMINDER: Activity check is now MONTHLY, as set forth in this post. Please note the dates for acceptable activity, and get a refresher on some of the rule reminders! WHAT COUNTS AS ACTIVITY?

• A post or thread in smashacademy, smash_logs, or IC inboxes. Activity that occurs over AIM, in journals, musesboxes, or outside of that will NOT count, even if it is Smash-related. What you can do however, is copy that over into one of the acceptable places.

• If it's a post, a single post will do, regardless of the comments it receives, or lack thereof. If you can get us samples that have comments though, we'd prefer that.

• If it's a thread, we're looking for at least 6 comments from you. (So 12 comments if they are talking to someone, and they cannot be 1-2 word exchanges, or icon chains. We need to see your character's voice!) It can be 6 comments in a single thread, or 6 total spread throughout different threads.

• You may provide more than one link if you feel it'll help you pass AC, so long as they fall within the time limits described below.

• If you provided an activity sample in the previous activity check that involves only one other character, you can not use an activity sample this time if it only involves that same character. If you provided an activity sample previously that features multiple characters with yours, you are fine. We're trying to encourage branching out with your CR, that's all.

You must provide samples dated from October 1st, 2015 - November 6th, 2015. Log starting dates do not matter, so long as the TAG DATES fall within the relevant time. You must fill out Activity Check by November 6th, or your dude will get das boot. If your character was accepted on or after October 24th, you are not required to provide samples. However! If you want to, that's totally cool, and we'd prefer it if you at least say you're here so we don't accidentally overlook you. If you're on a documented hiatus after October 1st, you are not required to sign or provide samples, but again, if you want to go the extra mile, or are able to at least check in, we'd really appreciate that. Note that hiatuses posted from October 21st on will not be accepted. We understand sometimes you're just not feeling a character or you're having a lack of inspiration, or maybe Real Life is really kicking your ass lately. If you're having trouble with a character, you can talk to any one of the mods and we'll be happy to listen. We are willing to grant exemptions and extensions on a case-by-case basis, but you must contact us BEFORE THE CHECK ENDS. If you feel like you're character squatting but aren't sure what to do or aren't certain, discuss it with us and we'll do our best to help you come to a resolution. Letting go of a character is never easy, but we'd like to avoid character squatting as much as possible for the sake of our current and potential future players. In case you need some tagging inspiration, here's a list of some of the posts going around to get yourselves an extra bit of activity!

• Best solution to scare away the moon? Join the big Fire Dog to howl threateningly at it!
• Robots unite to form Vol-- err, security team addresses the situation!
• Sensible plans come in all shapes and sizes. Join Pyrron in pushing the moon!
• Or touch Bowser's growth area... that can work too right?
• When all else fails? Get drunk. Follow the large tank man's example!
• Extreme plans ahoy, Cyrus is at it again!

Copy the HTML in the text box, post in a comment, and you're good to go. Fill out the provided form to completion, even if you are on a documented hiatus. Include characters' FULL NAMES--no cutesy nicknames or partial names, please. This makes our lives easier when tallying the check and decreases our chances of skipping over you by accident. Please let us know if you have any questions!
