The next weekchange will be posted on August 25th RL-time.

We ran the pre-AC for July and noticed that, because of the long weeks, we had ten characters failing it (including a number who usually pass). Obviously that was a unique situation, but given the new IC:OOC ratio, we have been re-evaluating the way AC is done. We don't want to get rid of it entirely; AC is an important part of the game, because it tells us who is active and where, which helps us figure out where to focus our ideas.

Now that one IC week is the better part of a month, it wouldn't make sense to keep AC on a per-month basis. We would end up penalizing characters for having slow weeks, which is not our intention.

We are considering changing AC to every two months and adjusting the scoring accordingly. Two months covers about 3 IC weeks, which allows for characters to have slow weeks but still make AC. The scoring would be 30 points per character, OR a total AC score per player that adds up to 30 points per character. So basically if one character is 10 points below the line but another character is 10 points above it, you will still pass. This allows for your more active characters to make up for your less active ones.

However, this idea is not set in stone and we would like your feedback! We also considered basing it on IC weeks (a certain number of points every 2 IC weeks, for example, and AC would roll out with either even or odd weekchanges), and the required point total is absolutely up for debate.
