AC Submission Form | AC Spreadsheet | Previous AC

Hello everyone, and welcome to Awash’s August AC post! AC will be open all month long, and can be submitted until September 30th, 9 PM EST.

AC requirements are:

• 25 comments over a minimum of two threads and a maximum of five threads
  OR
  
• One post AND a minimum of one additional thread and a maximum of two threads adding to 10 comments

AC requirements for new incoming players, and for new characters are halved. These requirements are:

• 12 comments over a minimum of two threads and a maximum of five threads
  OR
  
• One post and one additional thread of five comments

Please keep in mind the additional requirements, due to the game's nature as focused on the bonds and CR formed between characters:

• You may use a maximum of 1 inbox thread for AC.
  
• You may use a maximum of 1 thread with castmates for AC.
  
• You may not use threads with the same characters as you used for the previous AC.

Awash’s AC will be done via a Google form, which can be found here. More information about AC, clarification about AC requirements, the forms, and how to submit can be found here. Please be sure to give it a read!

You will also be required to link your character’s Color Post in their journal; this is so that we can tally up what large events happened over the month in question. In the monthly mod post that will follow AC’s closing, we will be listing out what changes have occurred based on the characters’ experiences and colors, so keep an eye out for that! If your character didn’t have anything big happen to them that month, it’s okay. Just link the Color Post anyway.

Please be aware that we will not be posting a warning list. We will post a generic announcement a day before AC closes to remind everyone that AC will be closing, but will not be generating a list of people who have not submitted their AC. We’ll be counting on all of you to keep track of your own AC and submit it when necessary! Please also be sure to check a few days after you have submitted said AC, to make sure that you haven’t miscounted or submitted the form incorrectly. AC will be checked by the mods every Monday at the latest. You can view your AC and check its status here.

Should your character be removed due to AC, we will not be accepting retroactive requests to remain in the game. Because it is a capped game, we believe this is the best way to be fair to everyone in the game who has submitted their AC.

Thank you for your understanding and for reading through all of this! If anything about AC is unclear, please feel free to ask questions below, so we can clarify for you.

Once again, the important links are the AC submission form and the AC spreadsheet. If you would like to doublecheck what threads you used for last AC, that can be found here.

Mod Post. 9/3/18

[awashmods]

Hello everyone, and welcome to September's monthly mod post! Here are your color changes and news for the upcoming month!

Mechanics

• First off, AC has completed and has been processed. AC is now open for September. September's AC Post can be found here. Thank you to everyone who completed AC!
  
  
• Applications are currently open and can be found here. All slots for new players have been filled at this time. Current players are welcome to apply for a second character at any point during this applications period.
  
  
• Much like the previous app round, we will be having two smaller events this month -- the intro log immediately following the app round, and another small event at the end of the month that will be geared towards letting everyone interact!

Quests

• Quests for September are now up! The OOC breakdown of said quests can be found below, as with last month. All quests have been posted ICly to the Quest Forum Post. Only quests for this month can be turned in for a reward.
  
  
• The Quest Reporting comment can be found here. As ever, please respond to that comment once the quest itself has been completed. When reporting the quest, please state what quest it is in the subject line; we've realized that that helps us a lot with keeping track over the past few months!
  
  
• Please be aware that Quests must be reported by the end of the month; this is because we use what quests are completed to keep track of what colors are restored for the next month!

Color Changes/Rewards

This month’s color changes are as follows (color changes can be tracked at the Color Timeline):

Color Gains:

• Because all of the quests were completed this past month, characters may notice that the color of the sunrise has been restored. Every color involved in the sunrise will be present while the sun is rising -- though the sky goes back to being colorless after that. Congratulations!
  
  
• Through their efforts and bonding this past month, characters have also restored some specific, special colors. However, you won't get to know what they are until you pick a thread from your color log to submit! Please choose one thread from your color log to submit here. Each player can submit one, and will get to see what that particular thread has restored! Please be aware the thread must be from the past month to be valid for this.

Color Losses:

• From drops: butternut squash

If there are any questions, please ask them here, so that we don’t miss any. Thank you, everyone!
