Welcome to the Kitsune Guild Assignment 3.5!

NEWS
☆ Please remember that "quality comments" are thoughtful and insightful comments left on a story. They are more than just "LOL" or multiple emojis. They show you are actively reading and have opinions and reactions about the narrative. If you do not leave enough quality comments on reported chapters, our staff may ask you to redo them.
Examples:
Quality comment: "The way you described the emotions here is so realistic and relatable! Great job!"
Non-quality comment: "This is cool"─── ・ 。゚☆: .☽ . :☆゚. ───
RULES
An assignment runs for the entirety of a month (from the 1st to the last day of the month); there will be two assignment chapters per month (e.g. 1.0 and 1.5) to update points and add new members.
You must read at least 3 narrative chapters each month with at least 4 quality comments per chapter. You can choose which book you want to read. Some books may offer bonus points; see "Points" below to find out more! At the end of the month, the member with the most points will receive a shout-out from the community profile!
Reports must be submitted in the inline comments within 7 days of reading. This will make it easier for our admins to check. You'll have to submit your assignment before 11:59 pm EST.
POINTS
You earn points when you read, and reading certain books will give you an added bonus! The member with the most points will get a shout-out from the community profile.
Normal Chapter (at least 4 quality comments per chapter): 1 point per chapter
Staff Chapter (at least 4 quality comments per chapter): 2 points per chapter
Partner Chapter* (at least 4 constructive comments per chapter + 1 constructive outline comment per chapter OR at least 10 quality comments): 3 points per chapter
*NOTE: We cannot guarantee you will receive a partner each month, if at all, but the best chance of getting constructive feedback is to give it to other people as well.
PARTNERS
If you like a member's story, you can ask them to be your partner. Partnering with another member will ensure you receive reads.
To ask someone to partner with you, leave an inline comment in your section under "Partners" and politely tag them with your request! If someone refuses, please respect their decision.
Any reads and comments made before a partnership is formed will not count as partner chapters.
