The requirement for all active characters in game is fifteen (15) comments from that character per month.
You have until end of day May 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 April 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 April 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 30th 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.

Bonus AC (optional): Klaus (2) + starter, Naesala (2), Kaltz (5), Silver (2), Pepper (4)
Allegiance Rank Changes: If applicable -- SciTech (+1) and Justice (+1) for developing an advanced security system to dissuade Crime (-2).
Notes: I'm new but I have these anyway.
no subject

no subject
Character: The Fool, Kit (who is on hiatus this month!)
Primary AC (required):
Bonus AC (optional):
Allegiance Rank Changes: The Fool is having a rough time adapting to one of the more unhappy realities of life in Aifaran--that people he knows and cares for may vanish at any moment. Fitz has disappeared, and it's badly affected him emotionally. (-2 Meta) However, his woodworking is garnering more attention now that some of it is on display in Klaus' cafe (+1 Arts), and he has had no further encounters with the criminal element that caused him trouble last month (+1 Justice).
Notes: lmao I am never going to figure the affinity stuff out :V
no subject
For future reference, since you can only use 3 threads to bring up your comment count to 15, it is not necessary to list all the threads.

Character: Ursula
Primary AC (required): One (13), two (3)
Bonus AC (optional): One (10), two (6)
Affinity Rank Changes: +1 to Crime, +1 to Arts, -2 from Justice
Notes: Ursula was flying around town on her broom. She was seen as kind of a menace and some people say "that professor Ursula may be up to no good!" Which also detracts from Justice. And she also did a stellar job with Chase, packing up a lot of valuable glasses and stuff.

Character: Eiji Hino
Primary AC (required): Ongoing, but as of right now, 15 in this post
Affinity Rank Changes: -2 Arts, +2 Sci/Tech
Notes: This has not been a good month for Eiji, whose unusual fashion sense earned him a citation (his Justice is already at 1, so I put it down for Arts). However, the ensuing fallout of being made fun of online may have gone viral, so yay? (Tech)

Character: Ilda
Primary AC (required): Yato (14) | Mission Log (3)
Bonus AC (optional): Conan (4) | Yato (3) | Sheena (4) | X (2) | The Fool (5) | Aly (4) | Pepper (4) | Kei & Lobco (3) | Kei (2) | Bastien (1)
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 Justice, +1 Crime, +1 Arts, -1 Sci-Tech
Notes: Apparently the "nice person" who printed out Yato's cat posters was actually persuaded by Ilda to say yes to her rather unfair deal (-1 Justice, +1 Crime). And while she's started to gain a following in Xa Xa (+1 Arts), she still needs to put Conan's photography lessons to practice and improve the quality of her posts (-1 Sci-Tech).

Bonus AC (optional): -
Affinity Rank Changes: -2 Arts, +1 Sci-Tech, +1 Faith/Turtles

Character: X
Primary AC (required): Valdis and Devin (18)
Bonus AC (optional): Not enough for bonus AC, whoops!
Affinity Rank Changes: Justice (-2), Arts (+1), Meta (+1)
Notes: Destroying a park, whether intentionally or not, tends to get one in trouble with the authorities (-2 Justice). X does try to help put things back together afterwards, though, which means working together with gardeners a lot, and discovering he actually kind of likes gardening and landscape design (+1 Arts). Also, trying to make amends with the people whose existences you've trespassed on is always a good thing to do (+1 Meta).

Character: Zelos Wilder
Primary AC (required): Sheena (3) | Trahearne (1)
Affinity Rank Changes: Faith/Turtles (-1) because Zelos can't keep his rude mouth shut when Ban Om devotees talk to him about the wonders of faith, but Commerce (+1) because helping Sheena find her own apartment has encouraged him to start taking steps to rebuilding some of that wealth he's so used to.
Notes:
As per discussion with the mods, asking for an AC exemption for Zelos!

Character: Enki
Primary AC (required): Yato (20)
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 crime, -1 sci-tech, +1 commerce, +1 meta
Notes: lost a rank with crime thanks to submitting a tip for the sentry, and one with sci-tech since he's not used the yimo much this moth... and managed to drop it and had to go get it repaired. But he's been training with his talent and has been wandering a lot of shops.

Affinity Rank Changes: -1 Commerce, -1 Faith, +1 Crime, +1 Arts
Notes: Bakura's been stealing at pretty equal par with actually buying things (-1 Commerce, +1 Crime) and been standoffish to the various faith groups around the island, especially the Ban Om (-1 Faith). However, with the imminent move to private housing with Pepper, they've been buying some decorative things +1 Arts.

Character: Ankh
Primary AC (required): Exempt from hiatus
Affinity Rank Changes: +1 commerce, +1 arts, -2 faith
Notes: Ankh was narrowly rescued from an encounter with the police over his clothes by a fashion designer who promised to help "fix the issue", and he ended up taking her up on the offer of being a model (+1 commerce, +1 arts). And he was rude to priests on a few occasions because... he's rude to most people. (-2 faith)
no subject
Character: Leonardo Watch
Primary AC (required): 10 7
Affinity Rank Changes: +2 Meta, -1 Crime and Commerce
Notes: Leo went to talk to the people of his school of magic to learn more about it and maybe not unleash it on unsuspecting citizens! (And maybe find out what it is.) (+2 Meta) However, he did hand in descriptions of the guys who tried to mug him (-1 Crime) and was more careful with his money than before, leading to his refusal to buy most anything unless it was for his Bibirus. (-1 Commerce)
Character:Konoe
Checking in for him, he is new this month!

Bonus AC (optional): X and Devin (19 comments)

Character: Pepper Potts
Primary AC (required): Bakura - 8 + Yato - 8
Bonus AC (optional): N/A
Affinity Rank Changes: -2 Arts, +1 Commerce, +1 Sci-tech
Notes: Pepper hasn't paid much attention to her Xa Xa account lately, despite starting off with a huge amount of attention (-2 Arts).

Bonus AC (optional): The Fool - 16
Affinity Rank Changes: -2 Arts, +1 Meta, +1 Commerce

Character: Trahearne
Primary AC (required): 4 + 10 + 2
Bonus AC (optional): N/A
Affinity Rank Changes: +1 Art, +1 Commerce, -1 Justice, -1 Sci-Tech
Notes: He got art tips from Leo this month (+1 Art), and has become friendly with a few shopkeepers that sell materials he's been using for his magic (+1 Commerce). On the other hand, the often disturbing look of his necromancy has caused a couple of residents to report him to the Sentry (-1 Justice), and he's been having some embarrassing problems with his yimo lately (-1 Sci-Tech).
I'd also like to use my ACP to bring Trahearne's talent to level 2. Skilled as he is with magic, he's been practicing that along with this necromancy.
no subject
Additionally, we've revised our Talent update option, so if we could please get you to re-comment for Trahearne's Talent upgrade over here, thank you!

Character: Sheena Fujibayashi
Primary AC (required): Post (1), Valdis (5), Zelos (4) + Ilda (6)
Bonus AC (optional): Yato (8) + Bastien (7)
Affinity Rank Changes: +1 Arts, +1 Sci-Tech, -2 Commerce.
Notes: Sheena had been offered to put her art on display, and she accepted. Her appreciation for the yimo rose during a conversation with Ilda, in which they spoke about how much detail there is in a picture, and how much better it was in capturing emotion than an artist. Despite being offered a "deal" to help start the Tea House, Sheena hadn't quite trusted the deal offered, so she turned the man down.
And I'd like to request upping Sheena's magic to level 2, please. It's not logged, but she's been practicing while training.
She's Alteration Level 1...she can gather light in the palm of her hand right now. (Thought that might be nice to know...)

Character: Gene Khan
Primary AC (required): Tony Stark (6), The Fool (5), Pepper Potts (5)
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 Faith, -1 Sci-Tech, +2 Meta
Notes: Gene's been actively avoiding the religious side of things, because he doesn't want to get involved...and they can tell (-1 Faith). He stepped on his yimo and had to go explain it (-1 Sci-Tech), but he's been testing out his Talent, and his ka summoning (+2 Meta).
Character: Jackie Ma
Primary AC (required): Valdis (16)
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 Arts, -1 Meta, +2 Faith
Notes: Jackie accidentally broke part of an outdoor art installation (-1 Arts), and he continues to avoid his Talent (-1 Meta). But his general kindness has caught the attention of the Tariken, who've become generally fond of him (+2 Religion).
Character: Miles Upshur
Primary AC (required): X (5), Kit (8), Pepper Potts (2)
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 Commerce, -1 Justice, +1 Faith, +1 Meta
Notes: Miles has been attracting the attention of roving groups of Ban Om (+1 Faith), and so is seen as bad for business, because, well, he gets strident when he argues (-1 Commerce). His little stint on the ceiling last month seems to have given him a power boost (+1 Meta) but some Sentry members heard him saying some nasty things about the cops. He's persona non grata. (-1 Justice)
Character: Aly Haskell
Primary AC (required): Devin Parker (11), Ilda (6)
Bonus AC (optional):
Affinity Rank Changes: -2 Crime, +2 Meta
Notes: Aly's been keeping her nose clean, and not getting into illegal mischief (-2 Crime), but she has been fixing some broken things with her Talent, because the more magic, the better (+2 Meta).

Character: Klaus Von Reinherz
Primary AC (required):Tony Stark (5) | The Fool & Leo (4) | Handsome Jack (6)
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 Justice, +1 Arts, -1 Sci/Tech, +1 Meta,
Notes: Klaus didn't particularly condone the sentry's treatment of Eiji's outfit in his open post (-1 justice). He showed off the cafe which is tastefully decorated (+1 arts) though he's not the most adept at operating the machinery inside (-1 tech). He also had a conversation with Handsome Jack about powers which is going to spur him to actually research his talents (+1 meta)

Notes:
Character: Kaltz
Primary AC (required): 9 + 6 = 15
Bonus AC (optional): n/a
Affinity Rank Changes: -1 Crime for not doing anything obviously criminal. +1 Faith for fully believing Yato is a god. -1 Commerce for only sort-of understanding the concept of money. +1 Science for learning to use a yimo.
