Check-In Information
Check-in opens on the 1st at 12:01 AM EST.
Check-in closes on the 8th at 11:59 PM EST.
We do not require traditional "activity" check-ins, but we do require an interest check-in to ensure that our players are present and still interested in the characters they play.
You will be required to check-in during the 1-8th of the month. If you cannot access a computer during this time, please let a mod or friend know so they can check-in for you.
You must check in your individual characters. If you fail to check in with any characters, they will be swept from the game.
If you missed check-in due to extenuating circumstances, please contact the mods ASAP and let them know the situation.
We ask our players to be active in the game even without formal activity check requirements. If we notice any concerning patterns with the same players missing check-ins and being swept from the game or being irresponsible with check-ins or squatting we will contact the player directly. This may include restrictions from reapplication into the game or actual activity requirements.
Please respect your fellow players and mods! We want to keep this game activity-requirement-free and active.
Anatomy Of Check-In
Every player will have an overall check-in comment with their name as the subject line. Every character a player writes will have a comment with their name and fandom as the subject line. Each month, players need to post a comment under each character's comment with the month and year in the subject line.
The comment structure will look like:

Check-in Content
Check-in comments are IC only, and are required to include a minimum of one thing your character did this month. You're welcome to include more.
Formatting is your choice: sentences, bullet points, something else. We're not picky!
We do not want links to threads, OOC explanations, or apologies. Folkmore is a chill game, and it's completely fine to have not played much.
We welcome and encourage handwaving. Give us something your character did in the background or plans you have to back thread. Note handwaved interactions you discussed with other players. Many players use their check-in posts as records of important beats their characters experienced.
The bottom line is to show you have some OOC idea what is going on IC, even when you're not actively able to RP, to demonstrate your continued interest in the game with the character.

(frozen comment) Merrin | Jedi Survivor
(frozen comment) January 2024
Player Name: Michelle
Summarized Activity: In January, Merrin moved into a windmill with Cal Kestis, helped Cal and Maul retrieve their holiday presents (and was not at all alarmed about the fact that they were weapons, surely this bodes well for all!) She also met Sansa Stark, Obi-Wan Kenobi, and itty bitty Princess Leia for the first time.
