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:

November 2021 (Yellow)

]November]: November was a month of exploration for David. In the mall he was very leery of the place, and he felt like he wasn't getting any progress. In fact, he took further steps backward, but not quite enough to dip into orange. Yet. While he did some heroics in helping Sephiroth get out of a car, he got into rather serious fights with Loki and Roxy, the former over memories, the latter over her relationships which frankly wasn't his business at all. He's also starting to question whether they are really themselves while they are here, or if they are copies of their original selves. Growth doesn't seem to be something he's really making, but rather he's stagnating and he doesn't know what to do with that fact. How does he get better when he doesn't know what better is? David has also started with the idea of searching actively for his memories as the Oracle said might happen.

Points tally:
Top-level or post: Link 1 Link 2 (10 each *2 = 20)
Network threads: Link 1 Link 2 Link 3 Link 4 Link 5 Link 6 (5 each *6 = 30)
Log threads: Link 1 Link 2 Link 3 Link 4 Link 5 Link 6 (10 each *6 = 60)
Bonus points: N/A

Month total: 110
Previous total: 20 (Item acquired in November)
Total: 130
