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

I really have no concrit for Kay at all. And I have heard rumors that a love meme is going to be going up next weekend. That means I can gush later.

So I just have to say FOR NOW: I find her completely charming to stalk and well written. It's kind of unbelievable really, how far you have taken a one-episode character, and how well you are making her work in the game. I am not sure there is a "customary" thread length in Luceti; a lot of it depends on IC motivations and situations. Some end up super long and others end up short and some in the middle. Sometimes things get handwaved. Hopefully that kind of thing will get more comfortable for you the longer you are in the game!!!!! <3

That's so kind of you to say--thank you! I'm so pleased that she's fitting in at Luceti, because playing her is one of the most fun things I've done in a long time. ♥

And by "customary," I suppose I just mean...threads here tend to go on much longer than in other games in which I've played. (The idea that I have multiple posts here with more than 200 comments on them is still completely unreal to me. That's never, ever happened to me before.) Which is really cool--I love building rapport--but it also means that I don't quite have the tagging endurance for this game yet. I've dropped more tags than I think is appropriate, and I'm concerned that it's coming off as flaky. :/ tl;dr: I worry a lot about these sorts of things and really don't want people to think I'm purposely blowing them off.
