#1 wiki | comment Topics: Edit question: edit needsasnickers asked on FAQ/Main FAQ at 2026-07-07 Answer date: 2026-07-08	Hello mods, I have a question: Let's say you put up a hiatus as a safety net just in case, but are able to make AC anyway. Am I allowed to disregard the hiatus by stating such and asking permission to delete it, or will it still count as a hiatus? Alternatively, when the reason for said hiatus is now obsolete, am I allowed to say that I don't need it anymore by asking permission to delete it or will it still count as such even if I do have the comments needed to complete AC for that month? Thank you in advance, mods!	It doesn't have to be that complicated! The only time a hiatus is "counted", is when it is submitted for AC in place of a comment thread, AND is checked at the end of the month. So if a hiatus is posted to the hiatus page, that in itself would not count as it being 'used' for the month. We do still recommend players who go on hiatus to go ahead and post their hiatus to their AC thread (since it's an easy thing to forget!). But if the player finds that they're able to submit normal AC after all, so long as the AC comment is edited before the end of the month, then it won't count as a hiatus being used. (Additionally, should someone need to hiatus for more than one month in succession, we just ask for players to let us know.)
