Activity Check-in


Activity Check-in


Polymythos is a check-in only game and has no requirements to make the monthly activity check beyond checking in. While there are opportunities each month to earn points that can be exchanged for in-game rewards, the game has no minimum requirement for its players beyond an interest in and eagerness to remain in the game.

Check-in runs from the 1st to the 7th each month. Because Polymythos is meant to be a casual gaming experience, there is no strike system and the mods will not be providing warnings; failure to check in will result in your character's removal from the game. Players on hiatus are not required to check-in.

Because the game discourages squatting, we would like to remind players that while AC is check-in only, failure to provide adequate proof that a character is making progress or forming connections (read: interacting with the game at large) leaves characters at risk of being removed from the game. If you have any questions or concerns, please don't hesitate to contact the mod team.



THE POINTS SYSTEM

The (optional, but who doesn't want REWARDS?) point system is meant to encourage activity, community building, and character growth. Each month players have an opportunity to submit posts, top-levels, and threads in exchange for points as well as earn bonus points for threads they feel are significant. (e.g., threads where characters show evidence of growth, threads with new characters/players, etc.)

Earning points:
Top-level or post: 10 points
Network threads: 5 per thread
Log threads: 10 per thread
One per month:
Tag a new person: 5 points
Character growth: 5 points
ScryWatch Color Change: 5 points
(Scrywatch color MUST be previously established.)



Please fill out the form for each month and post using the sample format provided below:

[May]: Jennifer was able to lean on the control the Main Temple helped her maintain to be relatively sociable and explore the surroundings a little. The masked party gave her the opportunity to revisit a few meetings with people from her home universe and expose a few vulnerable points. She did not enjoy her trip to the haunted beach, but meeting with an unmasked crusader was a good reminder that there are things she values about being around other vigilantes.

[JUNE]: Jen got smashed on some magical booze, went hulk, and wrecked a building in the city trying to fight gangsters. Lots of people helped when she needed some clothes afterward. Here's looking at you: Batman, Simon, Carter, Deadpool, Saxsice, and Quire.

[July]: Start of the month was good! Jennifer was making connections, sorting clothing, managing to improve. Then she visited the oracle, lost her abilities, and got messed up

[September]: Mostly recovered from her run in with the Oracle, Jen reconnected with a few people that mattered with new perspective on her loss and messed up ability.

Continuing to opt out of points.
