I realized the phrasing of the AC could be a bit confusing, so hopefully no one is panicking and thinking it is due by midnight tonight. You all have one more day to get things logged.
The following characters are not logged for AC yet: Jack Russel, SecUnit, Naoto Shirogane, Leonardo Hamato, Yang Xiao Long, Ruby Rose, Yoichi Nagumo, Shadow The Hedgehog, Pomni, and Eunie.
As a reminder, characters who have not logged their AC will be swept from the game on the 1st of March. And a reminder that everyone automatically gets 1 reward point for turning in AC!
That's a fair question. To break it down: You receive one freebie point from whatever your RP sample was. So that's one point. You may submit four more threads from the TDM and get further points from those. The comments from those four threads can total up beyond 4 points. (ex: if you get 10 comments from a thread you may get 2 reward points.)
I did notice some confusion over how many points you can claim per thread (e.g. people not realizing threads that are 10 comments from you can get two points, 15 get three, etc). It's on the FAQ, but I forget if it's on the main post
Also question: if a thread crosses over from one month to the next, and as long as we're diligent about linking the rights parts of the thread/not accidentally counting comments wrong, can we use tags from the same overall thread for two different months' AC?
1. They have not been used in a prior activity check. 2. The starter log is from last month. (So for example, if you reply to April's AC with something started in March that would be fine. February would not work.) 3. The majority of the tags are created in the current month."
On going threads can be counted until the end of the month. When we reach the end of the month, they are considered logged for the purposes of AC Rewards and Activity Checks, as the month and the AC is finished.
followup question for the AC bonus points- my sample thread with pomni had a LOT of comments. (35 total). Would the excess from that also carry into bonus points, or just the other four threads?
As per the FAQ: "I have a really big comment thread that I used for my AC, and it goes well beyond 5 comments. How do I count this? After the initial 5 comments, you may convert extra comments into rewards. As always, 5 comments equals 1 reward point. Please just make note of this during your Activity Check!"

As a reminder, the OOC plotting post also has a quick write up for the TDM reward points.
We accept continuation threads for official AC and bonus rewards, on three conditions:
2. The starter log is from last month. (So for example, if you reply to April's AC with something started in March that would be fine. February would not work.)
3. The majority of the tags are created in the current month."

You may keep gaining reward points for every five comments in a thread."
