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've taken to calling it 'moral ambiguity' to avoid that phrase for just that reason. And you are entirely correct in your reading of her. She doesn't consider herself a good person and hasn't for awhile, and that's simply how things are. I like that I'm getting more opportunities to play that up as of late. Being able to show how she becomes that morally ambiguous in November will be a lot of fun to write, and interesting to watch. Or at least I hope it is! ^_^

It honestly confuses me sometimes to see that she has made so many friends and associates in the village despite the flaws. I feel like pointing at her and going 'she's kind of a bitch. ARE YOU SURE?' and the answer seems to still be yes so I must be doing something right here. Grune, especially, has been and will continue to be a remarkably positive influence in her life. She's one of the people that Adele knows that makes her wish she could be a better person, and may in fact spur her on to try to be kinder in the future more than just around Grune.

Stupid book--it was a perfectly good phrase! /sigh And ooh, what exactly are you planning on doing? Should I be bracing myself?

Well, it helps that she's an entertaining bitch. :P Also that everyone else in Luceti is just as flawed in their own ways, so they can't exactly complain too much...! But yes, you're definitely doing something right. ♥

And awww! Grune would be so happy to hear that and she would totally cheer Adele on (if she could be made to see that Adele wasn't perfect exactly the way she is). ♥

Nothing evil- just knocking her back to fifteen around the second of November then aging her up through November and December. Everyone will see the progression from who she was to who she is, and she'll better learn to cope with the choices she made in her life.

Grune'll probably be one of the people she goes to as she remembers more and more of her life for support, and will be one of the most comforting people she knows since Grune only thinks well of her.

Ooh, that sounds like fun! I'm looking forward to seeing the inevitable trainwreck. ♥

And awww again! Grune will do her very best to be loving and supportive and will provide all the hugs.
