AC Submission Form | AC Spreadsheet | Previous AC

Hello everyone, and welcome to Awash’s April AC post! AC will be open all month long, and can be submitted until April 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

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.
  
• A toplevel and all of its subthreads counts as a single thread.

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.

Mod Post. 4/3/19

[awashmods]

Hello everyone, and welcome to April's monthly mod post! Please be sure to read all of this post -- we've got a few different things in store for this month

Mechanics

• First off, AC has completed and has been processed. AC is now open for April. April's AC Post can be found here.
  
  
• Characters removed via AC this month:
  
  merlin (avalonesome)
  katsuki bakugo (bombingking)
  hotarumaru (lampyris)

Plot

• The trees are looming way, way too close lately, aren't they? No matter how the characters try to push them back and hack them down, they just reappear by the next morning. They haven't encroached on the Town properly yet, but they are right up on the edge of it, colorless and silent and ominous.
  
  If characters spend too much time around the woods this month, including if they go into the woods for forest scenarios, they may find that things are much more dangerous than usual. Please keep that in mind! For those who have already sent in requests for forest scenarios, you will be given the option of backdating the scenario or encountering a more dangerous than usual one.
  
  Characters may suddenly collapse near the woods after spending too much time around the trees, and when they wake up, they will remember nothing but an ominous feeling of being watched. They'll be sick for a few days after that, so be careful, everyone!
  
  For now, there are no consequences to hacking down the trees. For now.

Quests

• Quests for April 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:

• New characters have now had their text color restored on the forum, as well as the color of their houses that they're living in.
  
  
• For completing all of the quests last month, characters have restored the color of the harbor piers.
  
  
• If your character has a color log thread from the month of March, please go here to submit a thread! After that, the mods will let you know what color that thread has restored.

Color Losses:

• From drops: Wheat, green paint, sparrows

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