I seem to keep falling asleep at inconvenient times, so I thought it would be prudent/helpful/&c. to admit that posting for L (quarter_english) and Remy (tiny_chef) might continue to be slow even by my standards for the next couple of days.

I'll try to keep up, though. Sorry, guys. :(

ACTIVITY CHECK.

REPLYING TO THIS POST IS ABSOLUTELY MANDATORY FOR ALL PLAYERS. FAILURE TO REPLY TO THIS POST, REGARDLESS OF CURRENT ACTIVITY, WILL RESULT IN AN INACTIVITY STRIKE.

The only people excused from participating in this Activity Check are players who are already listed as being on hiatus here (or who have already made a hiatus announcement to the lounge). However, if a player comes back from hiatus during the course of the Activity Check, or if only a portion of a player's characters are listed as on hiatus, they must still comment.

WHAT YOU NEED TO DO:

1. Go find the latest posts made to damned by your character(s) before this Activity Check post was made.
(Both damned and damned_lounge should show your own personal local timezone as the time stamps, as far as I understand; let me know if there's any problem/confusion regarding the time differences.)

2. Get the links for each of those threads, as well as the day/location/shift that they took place in.
(Click "thread" at the bottom of your character's most recent RP post (NOT the beginning of the current thread itself) or "link" in the header of the comment; then, copy-paste the URL.)

3. Comment to this entry with the form below.
(Don't include the "[ ]" brackets in the actual comment, please. By "mm/dd/yy," we mean month/day/year of that character's most recent post. Please add "(backthreading)" in parenthesis after a character's activity info if it applies.)

Name/Handle:
E-Mail:
Timezone:
Personal Journal: _username_here

[Character 1 name here], _username_here: Day/Night #: [location/shift here] - mm/dd/yy
[Character 2 name here], _username_here: Day/Night #: [location/shift here] - mm/dd/yy

If any otherwise active players happen to get caught by this particular Activity Check, we're sorry for the bad luck and we hope you'll make sure to announce your hiatus next time so that we won't have to catch you in our next one. After all, the reason we have these checks is to not make you guys pull your hair out but to instead ensure a healthy, active playing environment for everyone. ♥

TO MAKE SURE NO ONE ACCIDENTALLY MISSES THIS POST, WE'LL BE MAKING REMINDERS FOR YOU GUYS TO REPLY TO IT THROUGHOUT THE WEEK. Sorry for both the hassle and for the long delay between checks, and thanks for your cooperation!

Well, I think that the activity check kind of cinches it for me. I've been debating this decision for awhile now, and in the end, I'm afraid I just don't have the time to do a proper send-off. So I'm dropping Adelheid (grosse_sklaven) and he's going to just disappear. Which, granted, could have happened practically at any time during the past day/night cycle, but let's assume it was during the night.

He does have a rapier, a curved Chinese broadsword, and two vials of healing blood, if anyone wishes to make use of them. Roomie obviously gets first dibs, but after that, it's open season.

Due to paying thousands of dollars for the small hope that I won't be poor forever (university makes sense, I swear), I am hiatusing for the remainder of my finals period.

I might sneak in a post or two because I'm a procrastinating freak like that, but in general, I will...attempt to be good and stay off. 8|

Hiatus from tomorrow to the evening of the 21st. My last paper's getting sent to the prof by no later than 6:00 PM, so I should be back for the last half of third shift. I am absolutely willing to backthread, just let me know. SORRY GUYS.

After that, I'll be on sort of slow posting since I'm working pretty much every day and holidays = getting dragged around with relatives/friends, but I imagine everyone's in the same boat. XD

Sorry for the lack of posting today. Had some family emergencies, but things will hopefully clear up in the next day or so. Sorry. >.< Just been really stressed because of it and not at home and... yeah.  Anyway, without getting too personal, I'll try to be back to posting regularly as soon as I can.  And I'll be happy to backthread with anyone who wants to.  Really sorry again. :(
