The requirement for all active characters in game is fifteen (15) comments from that character per month.
You have until end of day August 5th to fill out this activity check for your character(s).
Character Tracking Sheet
• REQUIREMENTS •
These 15 comments may be accumulated across up to three separate threads on any qualifying network post or log, with any other player's character. Khu Ioduan weights network and log comments as the same (that is, log tags are not worth "more" than network tags, whether prose or bracket, or all dialogue.) In the case of a post body (log starters, a network post) these count as one comment.
In order for a comment to qualify to be counted for this Activity Check, it must be to a post in the Network or Logs community that was made during July 2018. Please note that comments made to memes, IC inboxes, test drive memes, and other non-game sources are not considered viable for Activity Checks. Khu Ioduan also has an AC grace period of 5 days (the duration of the Activity Check), in which to continue existing threads up to the 5th in order to make the required comment count.
Please be aware that the check in IS mandatory unless you're on hiatus.
In order for a comment to qualify to be counted for this Activity Check, it must be to a post in the Network or Logs community that was made during July 2018. Please note that comments made to memes, IC inboxes, test drive memes, and other non-game sources are not considered viable for Activity Checks. Khu Ioduan also has an AC grace period of 5 days (the duration of the Activity Check), in which to continue existing threads up to the 5th in order to make the required comment count.
Example: If a thread is standing at 12 comments, the final 3 comments can be added between the 31st and the 5th. However starting a thread (for example on the 4th) on a post made from the previous month (on the 28th) would not count. For the full explanation of our AC rules, see the Activity Check Page.If your character was accepted this month, you are not required to provide AC proofs, however you are still required to check in to this post. If you are new but have AC proofs, you may submit them for your Primary and Bonus ACPs.
Please be aware that the check in IS mandatory unless you're on hiatus.
• ACTIVITY CHECK POINTS (ACP) •
For making the monthly activity requirements of 15 comments, your character will earn 1 ACP. This is called your Primary ACP. Additionally, every character has a chance to earn one Bonus ACP each month. A second set of 15 comments, likewise accumulated from up to 3 qualifying threads, will result in that character earning a Bonus ACP for the month.
NOTE: Your bonus ACP cannot be made off the same singular character as your primary ACP in the same month. For example, if the character of Bonnie makes all 15 comments with Clyde for her primary ACP, she cannot use another 15 comments with Clyde for her bonus ACP that month.
NOTE: Your bonus ACP cannot be made off the same singular character as your primary ACP in the same month. For example, if the character of Bonnie makes all 15 comments with Clyde for her primary ACP, she cannot use another 15 comments with Clyde for her bonus ACP that month.
• AFFINITY RANK CHANGES •
Each month, players are required to submit their Affinity rank changes, moving 2 points total per month in any combination of their choosing. An affinity cannot be ranked at 0 or over 5, and all the Affinity ranks must collectively total 20 points - so points being added to one rank must come from subtracting from another rank, etc.
Part of the AC requirement is a VERY brief description of the character's behaviour that led to the fluctuations in affinity.

Character: Bugs Bunny
Primary AC (required): LINK
Bonus AC (optional): LINK
Affinity Rank Changes: +1 Sci-Tech, +1 Commerce, -2 Faith
Notes: Bugs offered to teach a class on network basics to some less-than-tech-savvy elders (+1 Sci-Tech) and went on a shopping spree at some local shops (+1 Commerce), but told off some Ban Om devotees when they wouldn't take a hint (-2 Faith).

Character: Valdis
Primary AC (required):Miles (26 comments)
Bonus AC (optional):Gene (21 comments)
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 Commerce, -1 Sci-Tech, +2 Meta
Notes: Valdis had to pay for a few damages to Garren's workshop (-1 Commerce), and her encounter with a different level of Soul Walking has created some changes to how she's looking at Aifaran (-1 Sci-Tech, +2 Meta)

Character: Ilda
Primary AC (required): Faias (5), Tiaghae (5), Nita (9)
Bonus AC (optional): Nita (9), Yato (7)
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 Sci-Tech, +1 Arts, +1 Commerce, -1 Crime
Notes: She might have only spammed the city once last month, but the Opara Core folks know she's behind Valdis' XaXa fan account and think she really is a digital menace (-1 Sci-Tech). Still, both the Blanket Dance and the Valdistas stunt have brought some beauty and cheer to the city in the light of the events surrounding the Narrakra (+1 Arts), and even if the dance didn't become a craze after all, she's gotten popular enough to enjoy increased sales in her wares (+1 Commerce). She's also been a good, harmless girl... if only because she's yet to be caught graffitiing the city (-1 Crime).

Here is the revised version.
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 Justice, +1 Arts, +1 Commerce, -1 Crime
Notes: She might have only spammed the city once last month, but the Opara Core folks know she's behind Valdis' XaXa fan account and think she really is a digital menace; the Sentry’s not too impressed either (-1 Justice). Still, both the Blanket Dance and the Valdistas stunt have brought some beauty and cheer to the city in the light of the events surrounding the Narrakra (+1 Arts), and even if the dance didn't become a craze after all, she's gotten popular enough to enjoy increased sales in her wares (+1 Commerce). She's also been a good, harmless girl... if only because she's yet to be caught graffitiing the city (-1 Crime).

Character: Rutile
Primary AC (required): Leo (11), Kit (4)
Bonus AC (optional): Yato (8), Valdis (7)
Affinity Rank Changes: +1 Arts, +1 Faith, -1 SciTech, -1 Crime
Notes: Rutile has mostly kept out of trouble this month, bringing down their criminal reputation (-1 Crime). They've also not had a network interaction that didn't end in a shouting match (-1 SciTech). On the other hand, after living in a place so filled with magic they're quite ready to take any supernatural events in stride, such as meeting a god or exploring a mysterious ship (+1 Faith/Turtles). And, after a long conversation with the Fool, Rutile is thinking more deeply about the more frivolous applications their skills could have (+1 Arts).

Character: Conan Edogawa
Primary AC (required):
7 comments
6 comments
4 comments
Affinity Rank Changes:
+1 Justice
+1 Crime
-2 Commerce
Notes:
Conan figured out who was behind the graffiti, but didn't actually bother to mention this to any law enforcement. He offended any charm sellers and fortune tellers in the vicinity when he informed Yato that they were all hoaxes.

Character: the Fool
Primary AC (required):
Bonus AC (optional):
Devin + mod tags (4)
Rutile (8)
Bobby (5)
Affinity Rank Changes: +2 Meta, -1 Faith, -1 Arts
Notes: All of the activity surrounding the Narrakra's return, the associated visions, and the arrival of one particularly dangerous Dreamfolk visitor mean that the Fool has been lambasted with the force of the Dreaming's power, and hasn't been daunted by it. (+2 Meta) All of this activity with the Dreaming, however, means that he hasn't been able to spend as much time visiting the turtle's head (-1 Faith), or working on his woodcarving (-1 Arts).

Character: Kit
Primary AC (required):
Bonus AC (optional): nah not this time
Affinity Rank Changes: +2 Meta, -1 Sci-Tech, -1 Justice
Notes: The Dreaming did the impossible for Kit this month by temporarily returning his former lover, Vandelin, to him (+2 Meta), but it was always going to be a bittersweet reunion. Spending what little time they had together was Kit's priority, meaning he more or less fell off the social media map (-1 Sci-Tech). He also probably didn't do himself any favours with the Sentry by exploring the wreckage of the Narrarkra with Rutile. (-1 Justice)

Character: X
Primary AC (required): Ilda - 5 comments | Zephyr - 10 comments
Bonus AC (optional): Bobby (4th wall) and Devin - 15 comments
Affinity Rank Changes: +2 Crime, -2 Sci/Tech
Notes: X slipped past the Sentry and onto the Narrakra when it returned at the docks, even going so far as to force someone else to sneak on with him (+2 Crime). After Bobby broke his wrist, however, it required magical healing rather than medical expertise -- which, combined with X's general avoidance of using technology for what it's designed for, has served as a reminder that he's basically held together by magic and paranoia (-2 Sci/Tech).

Character: Trahearne
Primary AC (required): Taking an AC flag this month.
Bonus AC (optional): N/A
Affinity Rank Changes: +1 Faith, +1 Sci/Tech, -1 Arts, -1 Commerce
Notes: Trahearne donated some handmade items to a Tariku donation drive (+1 Faith) but his attempts were shoddy enough it made it hard for them to sell the stuff (-1 Arts). He's also been getting some yimo tips from a handful of helpful Xa Xa users (+1 Sci-Tech), even if it did end in him buying a yimo peripheral he didn't really need (-1 Commerce).

Character: Judai
Primary AC (required): 6 + 5 + 3
Bonus AC (optional): n/a

Notes:
- Ships in the Night (meta +1)

Character: Padparadscha
Primary AC (required): Tiaghae (8), Rutile (7)
Bonus AC (optional): Faias (6), Sheena (11)
Affinity Rank Changes: Meta -2, Arts +1, Faith +1
Notes: Padparadscha's experiences with the visions and with Rutile's plan to study the barrier have made them less than interested in engaging with the metaphysical side of things of late (Meta -2), leading them to engage with some of the parts of Aifaran society they've been neglecting a bit to see if they can find other information on or representations of these events (Faith +1, Arts +1).

Character: Bakura
Primary AC (required): Valdis (6), Devin (3), Pepper (6)
Bonus AC (optional): N/A
Affinity Rank Changes: -2 Meta, +1 Justice, +1 Sci-Tech
Notes: Bakura was less than enthused about the 4th Wall visitors with the exception of Raine (-2 Meta), but didn't actually cause trouble because of it (+1 Justice), and stayed off the Lae more often than not (+1 Sci-Tech)
Character: Yato
Primary AC (required): Raven (6), Rutile (9)
Bonus AC (optional): Nita (10), Ilda (9)
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 Commerce, -1 Meta, +2 Faith
Notes: Yato got super swindled on his "good luck charm" (-1 Commerce, -1 Meta) but his sheer force of belief in it anyway has to count for something (+2 Faith)

Bonus AC (optional):
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 Arts, -1 Faith, +2 Commerce
Notes: Pepper has been buying things to decorate the townhouse (+2 Commerce), but was very upset that her father didn't make another temporary visit (-1 Faith). She's also been helping deal with graffiti art (-1 Arts)
Character: Devin Parker
Primary AC (required): Raphael, 5 + Valdis, 6 + Konoe, 4
Bonus AC (optional):
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 Faith, -1 Meta, +2 Crime
Notes: Devin's crazy demon ex-girlfriend was in town (-1 Meta) and he made sure everyone knew it as well as breaking a door (+2 Crime), and it's turned him even more off anything faith-related (-1 Faith)

Character: Zephyr
Primary AC (required): Kit, 6; Ilda, 5; Konoe, 5
Bonus AC (optional): X, 10; Sheena, 4; other Ilda, 5
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 arts, -1 commerce, +2 Scitech
Notes: He was less than pleased about his pictures being on Xa Xa basically anywhere (-1 arts) and also there was a problem where he needed to call in some favors regarding the damage in his room in the Dreaming Bridge (-1 commerce). Meanwhile, he helped a few people out with their yimos, overcoming the IT professionals' initial disdain for him now that he's shown he knows what he's doing. (+2 scitech)

Character: Sheena Fujibayashi
Primary AC (required): Post + Ilda (5) + Zephyr (4) + Raven (5)
Bonus AC: Padparadscha (12) + Yato (3)
Bonus AC 2: Valdis (9) + Raine - 4th Wall (4) + Judai/Trahearne (4) (If that's not allowed, I have this: Ilda (5))
Affinity Rank Changes: Faith +1, Arts -1, Sci/Tech -1, Meta +1
Notes: Sheena has a strong belief in Yato and his abilities and that what he wants to achieve will happen. Plus, she can't explain it, but she has faith that Ilda is all the good luck he needs right now (Faith +1). She also kind of poo-pooed Ilda's Xa-Xa fan page for Valdis, telling her that she should have asked permission from Valdis and it didn't matter if the pictures were already available online. And that asking permission goes for anyone--not just Valdis (Arts -1). She probably has half the Dreamers hating her since she decided to make a broadcast in the wee hours of the morning after one of her nightmares--and she wasn't exactly quiet about it (Sci/Tech -1). But, ironically, thanks to that broadcast, she and Valdis had a nice conversation, and Sheena learned where she might go to learn more about the Dreaming from her friend (Meta +1).

Character: Klaus Von Reinherz
Primary AC (required): devin + 5 counting the starter | The Fool +10, counting the starter
Bonus AC: Leo +8, counting the starter | raine + 3 | devin + 4
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 Justice, +1 Commerce, -1 Arts, +1 Meta
Notes: Klaus snuck aboard the Narrakra with Devin (-justice), and also offered to seal Dev's ex demon gf (+1 meta). Klaus's return to Die Rose Tulpa seemed a good thing overall for business (+1 commerce) and he like, maybe didn't 'get' a piece of modern art or smthing idk he's old fashioned and it's a dump stat this month (-1 art)
Character: Alice Liddell
Primary AC (required): atticus +5 | aly + 6 | judai +4
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 Justice, +1 crime, -1 faith, +1 meta
Notes: Alice not only snuck aboard the Narrakra when it returned, she's been hanging around the docks looking for another opportunity to snoop or overhear a conversation that might be interesting and not get shooed off by the Sentry(-1 Justice, +1 crime). She's as skeptical as ever about anything involving faith (-1 faith) but a conversation with Aly may be opening her mind to magic for good or for ill(+1 meta).
