HMD: Constructive & Positive Feedback! (Oct/Nov)

[thepull_mods]

How's My Driving: Con-crit & Pos-crit!

This post is for providing Constructive AND Positive feedback for fellow players regarding how they play their characters in Siren's Pull.

Constructive criticism should be just that - please avoid bashing or being rude. If you have critique for a characterization, please support it as much as possible and offer as much help as you can to the player. Remember - the point of the HMD Meme is to help fellow players, not to discourage or insult them. This goes for both giving and receiving critique.

Positive feedback is a genuine compliment or other positive aspects of how that character is played. Please avoid empty praises or general fangirling/fanboying, and try to give a viable reason that you're complimenting the fellow player - well thought out compliments always mean more, after all!

If anyone notices anything going wrong on this meme, please get hold of a mod via IM, PM, or email and let us know right away so we can deal with it appropriately.

To participate in HMD:

- copy the HTML-coded information in the handy textbox below
- paste it into a new comment and fill in your character or characters' names, journal names, and canon information
- other players will respond with comments or compliments for your character
- reply to other posts with compliments for other players!

<b>Player Name:</b> <b>Character Name:</b> <b>Character Journal:</b> <lj user=""> <b>Character Canon Source:</b> <i>(A short summary of what your character's been up to in Port this month may be helpful. If you'd like to ask for any specific feedback or advice, You can do it here, too)</i>

Thanks for participating, guys!

NOVEMBER ACTIVITY CHECK

[thepull_mods]

Hello, all! Welcome to the 34th activity check for Siren's Pull!

The Activity Check is something that will be happening every month, just to check in with players, make sure that all the characters who've been accepted into the game are participating, and get a quick rundown of what characters are up to!

NOTE:
Characters who apped in November's application period are exempt from AC, because they are brand new. However, if you play other characters in the game who have been here longer than this month, then they are not exempt.

Some Activity Check guidelines:

1. Any character who fails to reply to the Activity Check will be removed from the game for inactivity, in order to free up the character for someone else who may wish to play them. You have ONE WEEK to reply to Activity Check until we post the removal list.

2. Any character listed as on hiatus on the Hiatus Page will be exempt from the Activity Check. PLEASE USE THE HIATUS PAGE!
REMINDER If you are going to be on hiatus the entire length of the Activity Check period, please check in before you leave. "Retroactive" hiatuses will not excuse you from checking in!

3. In order to apply for more than two characters you have to give a link to a completed Activity Check on your next application.

How to Pass the Activity Check

All you have to do to pass the Activity Check is post a link to one of the following that has occurred within the past 3 weeks (since October 25th):
- An entry your character has made on sirenspull
- A log in which your character has participated on sirenspull_logs
- A comment thread on sirenspull in which your character has posted 10 or more comments
- An action log in which your character has participated on sirenspull that is 5 or more comments long, total
- Note: IC Contact threads do not count towards your activity check because it is not publicly seen on the game communities.

Additionally, we'd like a short rundown of what your character is currently up to. This doesn't have to be a long summary, just a general idea, and you're more than welcome to keep secret plots secret, so long as you give us something.

If you can't make activity check within the last three weeks there is still the seven days that AC's are open to post. This gives you four weeks in a month to post at least once.

AC closes at midnight on November 21st-22nd. Please get your post in before then, or you will end up on the list!

Here is a handy-dandy HTML-coded textbox, just to make things easier:

<b>Player Name:</b> <b>Character Name:</b> <b>Character Journal:</b> <user name=""> <b>Activity Link:</b> <a href="paste your link here" target="_blank">HERE</a> <b>Brief Summary of Character's Plot:</b>

Any questions are more than welcome, and can be directed to Mod GG (AIM: fullarmoredgg), the Grand Poobah of Activity Checklisting!

Thanks for participating, everyone!

I love everyone in this bar!

It's been a blast, people, but due to working full time and going to school full time, I don't have the attention to pay that this game and bbLoki deserve.

So he's going to be going home.

Thora will be finding her way back to Crowley.

Enjolas will be willed to Deadpool with a geas that he has to pay back his debt or Something Terrible (tm) will happen.

Hope to see you all around, it really has been a wonderful experience.
