Regarding AC and Strikes (August 2014 only)

[ironwood]

Due to general insanity of schedules for most people this month, we're dropping the required AC requirements by half for August's activity, meaning only 10 comments will be due on the Activity Check that goes up on Sept 1st.

Additionally, we are resetting the AC strikes list for all players so if you've taken a strike in the last 6 months, it will be removed; if you haven't got one in the last six months, no change. Normal strikes for August AC (that is, if you don't make the 10 comments and aren't already on hiatus) will still apply.

We want everyone to be able to go into the Evandau plot (which is the major lead into the final Malicant plot) without having to worry about comment counts. Thanks guys!

A wild nerd appears...

Hello TS! My name is Valerie and I'm bringing in my first character to the game... Ryou Bakura from Yu-Gi-Oh! He might look familiar, since he's Yami Bakura's host. I'm sure that will lend itself to some interesting mishaps and mistaken identity, none of which Ryou will be too fond of...which is of course the best part. :'D

Looks aside, Ryou's very different! He's kind and caring, but also easily excitable and a total dork who plays way too many tabletop games. But hey, at least he can cook and clean, right?! Snacks for all his friends are a given. He'll be in the Wood Sector WO-1C, so hello future roomies!

His application is here. If you need to reach me or just want to talk and/or plot, my plurk is danderly! I'll be jumping into the game soon.

EDIT: I stuck a log up for Ryou sooner than expected. o7
