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

Cliquish tagging wasn't my intent. Shortly after that post went up I got really sick. A little while later a family member was diagnosed with a life-threatening condition. I only realized when AC rolled around that I forgot to declare a hiatus.

I just checked back to the entry and for the most part, I stopped replying to all of the other threads the same day I stopped replying to yours. Most of the replies in the longer threads were done the day before, and that was due to fast tagging, not long tagging. Only a handful of replies came after the 11th. In fact, most threads got one more reply on the 16th and a final one on the 17th before I ultimately couldn't do it anymore and took a break from everything. I'm sort of confused where you see threads going on for much longer than yours did, as the only one currently still ongoing is the three way between Billy, Teddy and Tommy, and even then my last reply was on the 5th and the one before that was on the 17th.

All of the tags are still in my inbox and I've been debating replying to them or dropping them so I can just hit the ground running in the event.

Okay, so I didn't know that real life had gotten in the way and went down the shitter for you Shikki and I'd like to apologize. If you can forgive my awfully dickish sounding response there, we could give a thread another shot? Of course, that's only if you want to. As for that thread, I completely understand if you decide to drop it.

Once again, I apologize. Real life always comes before RP.

It's okay. No harm done. I realize that without the hiatus post it did look really weird that I just sort of derped off. I'm no longer super sick and my aunt has a really good chance of recovering so my RP drive has been slowly coming back around.

I don't know if you're doing anything for the draft but we could do something there? If not then certainly during whatever the Halloween happenings are.

[selphie_t]

Oh good! I'm glad Shikki. My Uncle has been very ill for the past few months himself and he's on the road to recovery as well.

Oh yeah, Selphie's going on the draft. She hates Luceti Hallowe'en events with a passion so the draft coming up was the perfect opportunity. But yes! Troublemakers unite?
