> N/A

Automatic Reclaim:
As commenced in October, we have instituted a policy wherein if you note in your AC submission that you have insufficient activity and would like to use your reclaim for the character, we will automatically apply it. If the character has a previous reclaim within the past six months, they will not be eligible for this treatment.

The following characters are identified as having not made AC due to insufficient activity and have been automatically reclaimed:

> Molly Carpenter | magicalpadawan
> Combeferre | philosophe
> Toro Raymond | flamingshortshorts
> Prussia | cantbewalled
> Galatea | funkindofwicked
> Wakahisa Seiryuu | leviathaned
> Billy Kaplan | witchnotwarwlock
> Dick Grayson | bludhavenknight
> Rebecca Holiday | doc_holi

Reminder: Our policy states that there must be evidence of effort being made in responding to tags in a post submitted as AC. This is taken into account when determining whether activity submitted meets the policies of Tu Shanshu.

If this list contains one or more of your characters and you still wish to play them, you have THREE days from the posting of this notice (by end of day on November 10, 2013) to make a comment to this post with 'RECLAIM' in the subject line and the character name/username in the comment itself. We will confirm the reclaim via the ironwood account.

Please note that if you have reclaimed this character on a prior AC, you may not do so again. This is in accordance with the activity check details outlined on the gameplay page.

A reminder that the next AC period is November 1-30, 2013! The activity check for it will go up on December 1, 2013.

Event HMD [All Hallowed]

[cherrywood]

In keeping with all good things, here be the event HMD for the ( All Hallowed Event ) that ran from Oct 27th to Nov 2nd. It was my (Li) first plot as an event mod and tbh, the first event I've ran for a game in a little while.

Thus I'd greatly appreciate any feedback you'd be willing to give! Here are some things I thought of, though of course please comment on any aspect at all.

• Was there enough for everyone to do, between the trick or treating side of things and the actual ghosting event and investigative tie-in?
• Was there enough variety of effects to partake in for ghosted characters? Did non-ghosted characters have enough to do?
• Did the midweek OOC announcement for the paint's effects find a balance between surprise and giving people enough time to thread it out? did anyone actually eat the paint Overall, was the pacing of the event good/bad/flying moose?
• How are the lingering Loss effects working out so far? Are they generating CR and IC development?
• Were the different parts of the plot explained adequately and were questions answered in a timely manner?

ANON IS ON and IP LOGGING IS OFF if you'd prefer to leave crit anon OR you can PM this journal, whatever suits you! This HMD is entirely voluntary, though feedback here will help make future events better and smoother.

Thanks in advance!

Hi guys!! Lins here, player of Natasha Romanoff chernaya and Derek Hale garou, and never let it be said that I don't go all out when I find a game I like??? Anyway, I'm introducing my third character at the turtle, because there is a severe lack of old school magical girl here.

This is Umi Ryuuzaki, from the CLAMP series Magic Knight Rayearth. It's a fantasy/rpg/swords and sorcery inspired manga with your typical CLAMP twist, and if you haven't read it, I really, really recommend it. It's one of their earlier series, so the art isn't noodly, and the story is totally bitchin'. Umi is one of the three main characters, and she's the Big Sister type of the trio of girls (the other two being Hikaru and Fuu) who has a tendency to flip out at things she thinks are weird. She's gotten slightly better about this since her time in Cephiro, but I'm sure there'll be something here that will set her (hilariously) off.

She can also cast magic, like 90% of preteen females in Japanese comics in the early to mid 90s, and her elemental specialty is water. She also has a Mashin named Seles who lives in her armor and also in the back of her mind and she can summon him into the form of a giant robot which will not be appearing in this film, because the turtle can't handle gigantic robots. Instead, he'll be appearing as a smallish dragon; essentially, summoning Seles just gives Umi cool armor.

I'm super excited to have someone who's slightly considerably more social than my other two, and I look forward to tagging her with you all!
