Hey guys, if you follow track, you'll know there's theoretically a week change today. Activity has been internalized in previous logs right now, so it's hard to tell how everyone is. If we change the week, it won't be much more than pushing characters ahead in time. Are folks ready for that? We know it's been quiet, and we're sorry for that. The three of us have been pretty busy.

Keep in mind that we plan for the coming AC to be a roll-call (UNLESS characters require double-activity, so something needs to be shown in that case).

What do you guys think? Just to clarify: We're basically wondering if we should postpone the Week Change again.

Sorry guys my Thanksgiving break ended up being an unofficial hiatus.

FYI I dropped Zidane. I reaaaally don't want to but I reaaaally also need a canon review for him, which I just don't have time for. Two weeks left of classes, then finals week. Ahhhh.

Anyway, the AC results, finally. Sorry it took so long:

Characters Required To Show Double Activity
The Doctor [personal profile] sir_doctor
Shantotto [personal profile] rhymeonadime
Twilight Sparkle [personal profile] sparkwithinme


Characters dropped for Inactivity
None!

The ACTIVITY CHECK of this month of November comes to a close tomorrow, the fifteenth. It would be in the best interests of all for its completion of each member of this fine community. Be sure to do so.

silly Spish is silly... though I realize the AC was the last thing posted so the reminder may redundant but if anyone tracks the AC tag it might help

shut up it's still the 8th somewhere

Hey guys! It's that time again for the Activity Check! Those rule changes are kind of old news now but if you still want to see 'em, check here for the full details.

All you need to do is link each character's most recent third person (so something posted on [community profile] paixaorpg). Activity that will be considered "current" for the check must have happened between the 16th of the previous month up to the 15th of the current month.

Remember that we are looking for the specific date of the comment itself; the start date of the log holds no significance.

The Activity Check ends November 15th.


Characters Required To Show Double Activity
Riku ([personal profile] halfdarkened)


Example:

Blue ([personal profile] halvedhowl) - November 2nd
Gwen ([personal profile] lovesamidboss) - November 2nd
Hades ([personal profile] lordofthedead) - November 2nd
Ma ([personal profile] meerkatmama) - November 2nd

Activity Check looks good guys!

Characters required to show double activity next month
Riku ([personal profile] halfdarkened)


Characters dropped for Inactivity
None~







Just to save space, I'm going to take a hiatus, hopefully brief. This weekend I have LARP, which means I'll have no internet access, but also potentially some family troubles going on, so I haven't been focused on RP.

As this is our first check with these rules, everyone is starting fresh; there will be no double-activity for people who failed the last check. In the future, we will post on the AC results who will be required double-activity. Did I really copy-paste that chunk. Pfff. Sorry.

The floor of Paixao is a disaster zone. The city, once protected beneath ten domes, now rests in ruin, building and dome debris mixed together. Some of the city managed to come out unscathed, but the pieces that are left are highly unstable, as though disturbing it may make things fall.

The perimeter of the once-city is comprised of the survivors. Most of the citizens are more ready to snap and lash out in a way they've mostly never shown before, and the majority have clustered in the I-10/J-10/J-9 area of the map, near the destruction and surrounded by the river. There can, however, be some citizens mixed with the Outsiders, forlorn and withdrawn into themselves.

For those prepared to enter the once-city in search of trapped people and supplies, they might run across the occasional lumen curled in a corner, but the population in the city seems to have lessened. The Elysian Fields, however, are highly more populated. It's difficult to move far without coming across a skittish lumen.

The sun and moon that lit the city are gone with the domes. The only light not created by anyone is from the eerie glow of the fields. There is no weather out here. Without the city to mark some source of life, the atmosphere of the floor is more haunting than Halloween Town.




OOC:
So! Where are your chars now, after this has gone down?

Hey these are nice and simple now... if you were on hiatus but didn't post to the hiatus post, it doesn't count. If I missed anyone on either the hiatus post or the AC itself, please, by all means, correct me!

Everyone started the new-AC style with a clean slate.

Characters that require double-activity for next month's check!:
(which is the same time it always is: the 8th-15th of the month).

Genie ([personal profile] ittybittyspace)
Kairi ([personal profile] heartswillblend)
Kiara ([personal profile] mightyhuntress)
Nick Fury ([personal profile] oneeyedeagle)
Paddra Nsu-Yeul ([personal profile] ofmany)
Pit ([personal profile] chickenwinged)
Ratigan ([personal profile] napoleonicrat)
Riku ([personal profile] halfdarkened)
Serah Farron ([personal profile] unyeildingcourage)
The pirate with a scarf ([personal profile] number2)


As always, for people that are fortunate to not have the AC dates seared into your memory (complete with mental sensors that can feel the date coming 'round)... you can always track the "activity check" tag, which will remind not only of the check itself, but the reminder, and the results.
 
 
14 June 2012 @ 02:58 pm
Hey guys, just a reminder that the ACTIVITY CHECK ends tomorrow night! As a reminder, as per new rules, if you do not reply to the post even if your characters are active, you will be considered inactive and will require double-activity for next month. Two inactive months = removal from the game.



This has been a PSA (Public Spish Announcement).

Hey guys, I know, it feels like we just had the AC, since we had extended the last one. But we don't want to fall out of rhythm, so here we are again - Activity Check time! Our old, standard, one week AC. You have until March 15th to reply. If you are on hiatus, please, please, please drop us a line HERE, otherwise we will not catch it.

50% of your characters need SOME kind of first person activity to pass this check. If you have an uneven amount of characters, round up. If you only have one character, and you have good reason for why they haven't/can't post, then fair enough. Let us know, and it probably won't be a problem.

*Just to make it clear, comments on a mb entry/other journals count, as well as PIMP convos.*

Reply with your character name, their journal, a link to their latest post, and the date of that post.

Then, to make it easy, just copy and paste a URL to some first person activity and note the date. (Dreamwidth will automatically make it a link.) It's easy, and we won't bite, I promise! <3

For example:


Hades ([personal profile] lordofthedead) - Feb. 27th
http://world-of-elegance.dreamwidth.org/262.html?thread=3078#cmt3078 (March 8th)

Zidane Tribal ([personal profile] theherotail) - March 8th

Week 38


The Week in Review


Hey guys, a little different this week, because our brains are all over the place. Comment to this post and tell us what's been going on for your characters during this past week!


New Characters


Roy Mustang, Seifer, Flandre Scarlet, Judge Nemo, Professor Ratigan, Roderich Edelstein, Sky Smith, and Rarity!


Weather


Thank god. The snow is dealt with. It's stopped, and the majority is cleared.


Announcements


Oi. It's been a loooong week 37. Sorry about that, guys. The move's taken a lot out of many of us, mods included. Hopefully people are settling in, and at least from our end I think we've managed to find our norm.

We're in the process of redoing the rules and the FAQ, the latter of which you can see here! We're still tweaking it, so if you've got any suggestions you can tell us directly on our Google Docs version of it! Simply highlight a portion of text, right click, and comment! Please don't abuse this. (If you see any text that isn't purple, it's just the mods making notes or being insane like Hayley). The rules are still being butchered and reworded but those should be up in a few days soon, too.

The snow has been decently cleared; there are gigantic piles of it outside of the gates from the citizens (and anyone else) that help cleared it away.

As for nightmares, please hop over to this post if you haven't and tell us alllll about your nightmares!

As a reminder, characters can still easily get out of the city! The guards will try to stop you, but it is possible to get around them/trick them/what have you. Don't let it stop you from trying to explore! It's if you want to be caught.... well... :3

The normal AC will be in a few days, so keep an eye out for that!

Hey folks! Just wanted to give you an update with how things are going. We've got the log comm transferred and the others are on their way, but even so we're not going to allow posting until we're sure everything is squared away. We don't want to start and then find out something's gone screwy, y'know?

So, some things. AND THIS IS REALLY IMPORTANT. We're going to need everyone's character journals for Dreamwidth so that we can update the lists and add people accordingly (though we're thinking about keeping who can join the comms unmoderated for a period of time, allowing everyone to join without our approval).

The OOC comm is currently open and unmoderated, so you guys can hop over there and plot and muse there while we finish with everything else. It's not pretty or anything, but it's something.

While we've started to move stuff sooner than we were initially expected, it'll still take us some time to get situated, so please bare with us. There's a lot of technicalities going into this.

In the meantime, I hope everyone has a good New Years Eve and New Years Day. We'll be sure to keep you all updated on Paixao's happenings.

ONCE MORE. PLEASE REPLY WITH THE JOURNALS YOU'LL BE USING. THIS WILL SIGNIFICANTLY HELP US.

Thanks,
Spish

Week Change - Week 36


The Week in Review



Two kidnappings in one week? Must be something in the water. While the Eleventh Doctor was taken and tortured by Kuja and his villainous metal thong, Yorda seems to have been stolen from her geeky science nerd companion. But who is the culprit? Is it a chocobo after all? And she was just having so much fun at a sleepover... Meanwhile, the message board is fired up from some disturbing and antagonistic posts - a body found on the streets of Paixao!? Scar being a jerk and nobody likes him?

More friends were lost and missing, new friends were made and families have been tested. But most importantly -- what is the deal with all this snow?



New Characters


Please welcome [livejournal.com profile] bestwhendaft, [livejournal.com profile] whyisthatsosad, [livejournal.com profile] fonflower, [livejournal.com profile] sparkwithinme, [livejournal.com profile] trademark_skull and [livejournal.com profile] cheerfulrainbow! Remember to add them to your friends list if you have not already. The lists will be updated after the AC results are done.


Plot


The snow that had started to fall over Paixao hasn't stopped. It hasn't even lightened up. It keeps falling within the domes and it's gotten to the point where it's unmanageable. The trains have been shut down, unable to run.

In other news, the mayor has made his presence known once more.


Announcements


As of this post, Mayor Douchetoris (as I've come to nickname him) has made his presence known in the city again. He's gone back to the old, old ways of not letting people leave the gates and no, he's not about to change his mind in that regards. You can, however, still get out of the city, probably with violence if you want to just waltz through the exit, or you can find other ways like stealth methods or finding someone that can use portals, turn into a mouse and skitter by. Creativity! Go for it.

But for those of you that are terrible to your muses, there's another option. Those who try to exit can be arrested by some pretty tough citizens and brought into "prison" to serve time for a short while. ...At least, that's what characters think will happen.

What really happens? Your characters are handed over to the Organization, surprise surprise. You can sign up here (the "plot signups" link can be found on both the ooc and rpg sidebars) if you wish your character ill will and from there we'll organize experiments. It can be anything from the norm light/dark injections to just being stuck with a prick; whatever it is, you can sort that out with your experimenter. BUT the difference from before is that once released, the only memory that your character will have is that they were serving time.

Oh, and Org members, be sure to check the comm if you haven't already!

Hey guys, the activity results are pretty good~ Everyone who didn't check was on hiatus. But. There were a good handful of people who only posted to the ooc and not our easily accessible hiatus post on the right. Please, please, please drop us a line there when you're taking a hiatus - we don't normally dig back through the ooc to check! I only did this time because there were enough people missing that I wasn't sure about.

SO PLEASE. REPLY HERE WHEN YOU'RE TAKING A HIATUS. THANK YOU!

So! All we have is one to poke at:

Half-active, but didn't check -

KH!Tidus ([livejournal.com profile] blitzdream)

I say half because I can't find a 1st person.

Please remember to reply next month!

Yo! It's that time again! Activity Check time! You have until September 15th to reply. If you are on hiatus (like me), please drop us a line on the sidebar link, otherwise we'll miss you.

Then, to make it easy, just copy and paste a URL to some first person activity and note the date. (Livejournal will automatically make it a link.) It's easy, and we won't bite, I promise! <3
