ACTIVITY CHECK: October 2024


Ahoy, mateys! Here be the monthly Activity Check!

In the Extra Notes section, please note the following, as well as anything else worth noting:

  • Any ghosts that were dealt with/helped during Ghoul's Moon
  • Any further discoveries made regarding the crystal infection and/or rescued victims
  • Underwater ruins hidden chamber findings
  • Whale helpers results


Please check our Activity Check guidelines on our Game Info page for complete details, but here is the quick list of what you need to know:

» Only threads dated from October 1st through October 31st count towards the month's activity. (With the exception of certain backdated threads, read the linked AC guidelines for more details.)

» Activity requires one thread of at least 5 comments. The comment count is from your character.

» Any thread counts, including those made within your own entries and subthreads within your own toplevels. Individual entry posts do not count, only the threads within the posts. TDM threads with non-game characters will count.

» Continuation threads are considered as part of the previous thread so they count as one thread not two. For the sake of ease, we would like the two threads linked together.

» You are exempt from any checks for hiatuses that last for over 21 days. Anything less and you'll still need to submit your AC unless there are other circumstances.

» Because we are a capped game, there is no strike system. If you do not make the AC requirements, you will be cut.

» Bonus AC points: All extra non-quest threads not used for AC will be worth 2 extra points that can be used for reward redemption. Please check our Rewards page for more details.


There will be no warnings. All submissions are due Thursday, October 31st 11:59PM US Eastern.

EXTRA FIELDS: This is not required and completely optional, but included in the submission form are two optional fields: Extra and MANTA Board Posting.

For the Extra field, this is just a space for players to note anything that occurred in their threads that they think might be fun for us to know. So if something particularly interesting happened (for example: discovering a new creature or location, an old artifact, or perhaps a character has stolen something), we highly encourage players to jot them down! Who knows, we may even find a use for it… In addition, we may ask players to submit certain activity related to an event.

You may also submit MANTA board requests to be included in the upcoming board. We will try to add them immediately, otherwise we'll save them for the next Board or a time we deem fitting. If you don't have one in mind at the time of AC, you can post it later to the upcoming Captain's Log announcement.



If you have any questions, ask them here.


FORM: Fill out the following form and comment directly to this post. If you have multiple characters, please put them in one comment.

Reward: 300 dubloons

Sherlock Holmes is looking for someone to help combine a number of enchantments or charms from other items onto one or two for ease of transport when visiting other leviathans. Contact for additional details. The additional details are that Sherlock wants to be able to sleep when he has to stay somewhere besides his apartment, but he would need to bring 4-6 plushies (two of which are large) and a bunch of winged horse feathers. Transferring/copying/combining whatever makes it easier to sleep into one or two items would help make things manageable for a trip. (Stick them onto his Jo(h)n plushie(s) because the plush collection has become A Thing in this game, the reason he can even sleep, and Sherlock cannot escape it and seem cool.)
