Let me do you a solid and tell it to you straight. The point of ac is to make sure people are still engaging with the game and if there's no response they're swept. It shows a willingness of participation and there's also the understanding that some months people get busy. On those months a low ac is a safety net for otherwise active players. In the long run though, the purpose of being in a game is to actually PLAY in it. If you're scraping by every month with just 5 comments and never finish a thread, you're not really in the game. You can't establish CR with that low of a commitment. You'll end up frustrating everyone who's trying to play with you, because ultimately the purpose is to create a shared story together. This can't happen if you're just not playing often enough.

Yes it's sad that as adults we don't all have time for a game anymore where we need to be present to keep things moving. If that's the case for you though, stick to psls. Games just aren't for you anymore or at this time. If you're forever handwaving what happens in a thread or only plotting things out and never playing them through to their conclusion, you're not really playing in the game. It's just that simple. If you're aiming to only make ac each month, you're not really in the game. You're just trying to skate by and for anyone who actually wants to create a shared story write it out? That's incredibly frustrating. Please if this is you just take the L and realise that a game environment in a collaborative hobby is not the place for you right now.
