House of Cards OOC

Guess who it is, guys. It is a Scallion. Cower in terror.

Okay, okay, serious intro now. Raphael is a 28-year-old artist Four in Spade Castle. He's the semi-scruffy guy you see passing in the corridor. He's also that guy you maybe saw on the Green last week being a living statue, or painting a mural on one of the cottages (look, no one said anything about the outside of them, just the inside). He might also be the guy you saw on the farms or in the stables as help was needed there and money was needed in his pocket and a match was made. You know. That kind of guy. Not exactly starving, but not really flourishing either.

Oh yeah, and he's the black dustbunny of the Chives. That should be mentioned too. Scallion isn't the name he was born with, just what he changed his name to. (He can hear the jokes in your head. Go ahead, make them. He's gotten used to them.)

More at his app if you're interested.

( Just a reminder on how hiatuses affect AC )

Now to the AC itself:

On the 25th of each month, one of the mods, with the help of the community tag list, check to see which characters have met the activity requirements. The exact requirements can be found over here on the rules page. This is also the reason why tagging your posts is so important - chances are that won't see your posts/posts you commented on otherwise. So. Tag your things, lovely folk!

¹Also please note that generally, we consider a "thread" to consist of at least five comments by each character in the thread. So, for example, if you tag into a post and only tag twice, particularly if you have shown a pattern of barely making AC, we will likely not consider that a full thread.

Below is a list of those who are in danger of not passing AC this month. Should one (or more) of your characters be on the list, you have time until the last day of the month to meet the requirements. If you don't, the character will be dropped.

makeminerubies → 0 threads. (dropped)
denythyfather → 2 threads (1 2) had a 3rd thread
rarelight→ 1 thread. (1) got threads
allthesamemask → 1 thread. (1) had 2 more threads
isadisease → 1 thread (1) got 3 threads
eucre→ 2 threads. (1 2) had a 3rd thread

If you notice any mistakes, drop a line below and I'll fix it. I expect a couple of these actually have enough threads but that they weren't tagged. :)

NOTE: AC list is on the 24th this month since it's a short month. :)

Taking a break from computer life for a week or so, peebles. And...going to go ahead and drop Claudia since I don't see her making AC this month anyway. Bitches are just exhausting to write, omgwat. Will be slowly catching up on existing tags/threads, but making an official hiatus post because I won't be starting/tagging anything new for a bit.

Effects Ethan (cutslikeaspade), who will be doing his thing in the armory and scowling at anyone who leaves shit where it doesn't belong, Theo (holdsmyheart), who's going to be getting on with the being of King for the Hearts (and still looking for IC PA's for all the Royals) and Juliette (jokeswithknives), who's going to be riding her gigantic horsie around and stealing all the apples from everywhere ever.

Take care, lovelies. <3
