A number of you passed the activity check, but barely. (You know who you are.) Try to pick things up, as it's no fun to character-squat.

If there are any mistakes here, please let us know! Additionally, if your character was removed and you're still active, feel free to appeal to one of us about keeping your character. However, please remember next time to stay active and post to the Activity Check. Thank you!

And as always:

HMD

How's My Driving?

This is a crit post for both the community and game and for your characters. If you have something you'd like to see us improve upon with the game, PLEASE TELL US HERE! Anon commenting is on, but if anything gets really nasty there will be warnings and thread-freezing. This isn't required but everyone is encouraged to take advantage of the advice of your fellow players!

Just some pointers: no taking cheap shots, no dragging personal issues into things and for the love of all that is wise and great, please double check your replies and comments before posting them. Sometimes a change in phrasing can make all the difference between a helpful tone and a condescending one.

ALSO ALSO: We'd like to clarify that HMD means HMD- which means it's okay to have both good and bad crit. Some people have expressed concerns about posting good/bad crit when a character already has bad/good crit posted. We'd like to encourage you guys to do it anyway! You can drive well or badly, and even good drivers make mistakes. So give it a try \o

just buffy right here.

guys -- i know i dropped quite a few threads this past weekend. and as a heads up my activity might be spotty for a while. an unexpected loss in the family has prompted a last-minute trip back to my hometown; i'll try to be around later. this also means that i probably won't have the chance to comment around for this hmd. i apologize!

this is kratos and jeb's player btw

[traitortoheaven]

First, I want to say that I'm sorry to hear about your loss--that sort of thing is never easy.

I feel horrible because I can't think of anything you can improve on... but I do want to mention that I hear every tag you post in Buffy's voice. You have her quirks and mannerisms down and it shows. I enjoy tagging her with Jeb, even if my tags are always slow.

[herotypical]

thank you so much! it means a lot to hear that her voice is on track. and i just want to mention that jeb is adorable and i can't wait to thread more once things settle down!

[quip]

♥♥ i'm really sorry for your loss and take all the time you need.

your buffy. i am not a big fan of her character, but oh my god, you make me really enjoy her. you've got her voice down and i feel like you play her in a way that highlights her flaws but also makes her very likeable. i just really like your portrayal very, very much. and thanks for putting up with my slow tagging. you're always so impressive with your lightning tags! it's been a joy to thread with buffy so far and to play out the potential friendship we never saw develop on the show. ♥

crit: stop tagging so fast! you make me look bad. :p

[herotypical]

buffy is such a brat; it's so easy to dislike her. and it always brings me joy when i've managed to adequately represent her more sympathetic qualities.

your tagging is lovely and don't you dare apologize. /hugs

and i just want to say here since i'm not running and commenting around -- your cordy is fantastic. really. i'm so grateful and i'm glad you've stuck with us! this cr fascinates me! keep on rocking in the free world!

[markofthebrave]

I just wanted to restate how glad I am that Katara and Buffy are getting the chance to talk. We've said we wanted to do this for a long time, and now that it's finally happening I am all flaily about it.

Also. *hugs*

[herotypical]

oh i know. i'm equally as glad -- it's gonna be a thing of beauty no matter how it goes. i am sorry for dropping that sledding thread...hopefully things'll settle down after this week and once i get back to halifax!

[markofthebrave]

We can just say that Nothing of Importance Was Discussed and that they had a boss time sledding. \o/ Bonding via "wheeee!"
