January EMP Meme

[enablemeplz]

ENABLEMEPLZ meme goes up on the last Saturday of every month FOR GAME ADS: ➤ Put an ad up with the characters / crew / pairings / fetish you want for your game under the correct game header. This meme is primarily going to be focused on DWRP games but IJ and LJ games are allowed. ➤ PLEASE NOTE A RULE CHANGE HERE. ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding (no font size > size 4 or 3 "big" tags, no oversized banners (they must be 250px in height or less), no blinking text, no obnoxious table html that doesn't collapse easily, no sparklies, no large pictures). Use all the colors you like, but please remember 3 "big" tags is the limit and that's only for headers or title text rather than for all the text in an ad. FOR GAME QUESTIONS: ➤ RPers interested in a game can create a header for the game and ask questions about that game that aren't easy to find on faqs, such as the actual pace vs. what's listed/what kind of plots are run/if the game leans more towards plotty or slice of life/if a game leans more towards network or logs, etc. Both anon questions and anon answers are welcome in this section just like in the rest of the meme. ➤ This thread is not for speaking about wank or drama in a game. There are anoncomms that exist for that. This thread is specifically for general questions about a game that rpers want to get perspective on from players already in the game. Answers can be slightly negative (such as saying app response is slow or that the plots are repetitive or similar things) but this should at least be worded politely. Unnecessary vitriol, any mention of personal drama or wank, or mod teams/individual mods/players being singled out, will be screened and/or deleted. FOR CHARACTER ADS: ➤ Put up an ad about the characters you are offering. For PSL/1-on-1 ads, there is a separate subthread but for character ads for games, post directly to the meme post. Others will comment to you with the games/casts they want you to join. ➤ There is a "Find a Castmate" section, where you can talk about a cast you play in at a game, and try to lure people to join it. Not all games post to the meme or have a "wanted" section, so players that want to tempt people to their cast on their own can use this section for it. Please format this the same as the PSL/1-on-1 section, where you post the canons in your subject. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Find a Castmate" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. When listing who's currently in a cast, please do this in sentence form (with commas) rather than in list form. ➤ ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding, with the same rules as the Game Ads Section above. ➤ If you're recommending a game to someone, try to match your suggestion to their needs. It's okay if part of your game rec is copy-pasted (such as what the game's about), but at least some part of the rec must be personalized to their ad. Try not to recommend the same game to every single ad, either. Ad spam that isn't individualized in some way will also be screened. IN GENERAL: ➤ Don't be a dick. This isn't one of the anoncomms, so any snide comments or unnecessary commentary on the RP plans of others will be screened. MOD CONTACT: If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please!

OFFERING:

Percy Jackson | Percy Jackson and the Olympians/Heroes of Olympus
Hiro Hamada | Big Hero 6
John Egbert | Homestuck
(tent.) Shiki Misaki | The World Ends With You
(tent.) Taichi Yagami | Digimon

PREFERENCES:

-DW only please!
-Castmates fine but not necessary
-Nothing strictly SOL please, preference toward some plot-based elements
-Would prefer no power-nerfs but would be okay with a place that allows other powers instead
-Medium-paced preferred, would not mind a faster pace
-Backtag-friendly is fine!
-Additionally just hitting me for PSLs/memes is also fine!
-Open to most genres but this selection of characters probably won't do in pure smut games so maybe a no on that.

Mostly just browsing around for options, thanks in advance!

maskormenace might be up your alley! Definitely doesn't need powers since well superhero/villain game. We currently have Annabeth, Nico, and Will from PJO/Riordan-verse in general. We also have Hearthstone, Magnus, and Alex from the Magnus Chase series. We also have Lester aka Apollo currently jamming over on our TDM.

Feel free to hit me up with questions if you have em!

[hydrokinetics]

That username for Will is so perfect, oh no.

Hello! That's a pretty interesting spread of characters! I was in MoM several years ago but dropped after a while, so I will definitely take another look at things. Thank you for the rec!

[punshots]

sticks my leggie out...TY I MISS RPING WITH YOUR FACE

i know we briefly talked nysa before, but if you feel like trying it out the tdm just went up yesterday and there's an app round coming up soon! i have no castmates to offer (and some of yours will be too young since it's 16+) BUT it's got plot and is generally medium-paced, sometimes a bit faster during events/intro logs, but everyone is also chill with the backtags ime.

if it's not your cuppa that's cool too, we should PSL or something bc i miss you...okay CARRY ON

[hydrokinetics]

reaches for and falls flat on my face BAYLEY....I miss playing with you too!!

We did briefly talk about Nysa and I keep tentatively eyeing it since you and a bunch of other people I like are in the game. I know you guys just implemented an app cap per round and everything but there's no cap to how many you can throw on a TDM right?

I think the two most-likely apps (Percy and John) just barely make the cut since they're both 16 but that's good to know! I had forgotten about the age limit.

Given the circumstances of playing and modding another largeish game, would you say the pace is still easy enough to keep up with if I could only tag once or twice a day during the week and a little more on weekends? Also we should PSL sometime anyway because it's been 20 thousand years

[crimsomatic]

REACHES FOR

yeah, there's no cap on the tdm so you can go crazy there!! if you do throw someone up there, let me know and i will hit you like a mack truck!!!

and yeah, definitely! i usually clear my inbox every 1-2 days and have no trouble keeping up, and there's a lot of people i only get tags from couple times a week. for the size of the game, i've found it pretty easy to keep up with. BUT YES WE SHOULD PSL IN ANY CASE i've been itching to do things with dipdoodle again recently, so we could do something with the disney boys :3c

[windeity]

sweet! most likely it'll be john AND percy to see who I feel like playing so i'll yell at you when that happens. I want to read the TDM a bit and read over some other stuff before I commit to even playing around.

THAT IS GOOD TO KNOW THOUGH. I've been really hesitant apping somewhere else for that reason but that doesn't sound too bad. I'll take a look and think on it! But until then please? Give me the Disney bros!! I am still always here to do things with Hiro so just hmu whenever and I will be there with bells on

[knitpick]

YELLS

i've got nothing that fits your prefs but i feel like i never see johns these days so i am excited regardless? i'm at least up for memes or psls or whatever if you ever want a rose! i've also got a dave journal (and a meenah journal mostly for shitposting but still)!

[hydrokinetics]

!!!!!!!!!

I would absolutely be up for memes or psls or whatever for Rose and John!! I love their friendship so much and I'm always down for doing random things with him and castmates c: I'd also be happy to do stuff with Dave, too, but also I'm laughing. Bless Meenah. Either way I don't have him on any memes right now but I'd be 100% into finding one for them or just setting up some kind of PSL whenever you'd like.

[redotiertwo]

I'd love to see a John (or Percy, honestly, but I have cast for John so let's roll with that) at thefarshore! It's a game based on the world of Noragami, so characters come in either as gods or as shinki (the weapons of gods, who get memloss'd but they can get stuff back through AC points). There's a lot of fighting the monsters of the setting and doing prayers for followers and so on, and it's medium-paced and really backtag-friendly in my experience. It also doesn't nerf powers bar game-breaking ones, regardless of whether the character comes in as a god or shinki.

The TDM goes up on the first day of the month over at takamagahara, and I'd be happy to answer any other questions you have about the game!

[windeity]

Oh my god a Davesprite. Hello!! I've heard about TFS but I've never really looked at it, but that's cool to know! I knew about gods and shinki but not about what the setting actually allows, so those are really good things to keep in mind. Those are both really good buzzwords, too, for the pace I want to set. Players pick if they want to be god or shinki, right? Mostly out of curiosity I sincerely don't know much about how the process all works.

But that's also good to know! So a TDM would beeee next weekish, plenty of time to look stuff over. I will take a look for sure and decide if it's my jam and maybe pop over there. Thank you so much for the rec!

[redotiertwo]

Yeah, it's player choice - February round is shinki-only for balance purposes (since sometimes we end up with a lot of gods waiting on getting shinki), but if you're more into god then March round will be back to normal, and you also get to pick the options for what god you want the character to be (as long as it's one not already taken by someone). It's all part of the app, so it's pretty straightforward, there are certain parts to fill if you're going with god and certain others for if you're going with shinki.

No problem! I'm always glad to see more Homestuck folks around.

[neverplaysfair]

I saw Shiki and Tai and was like "is that" and then stalked the replies and IT IS

HELLO LONG TIME NO SEE

(I have no game enables because I just started poking DWRP after a long hiatus; I am just here to heap love on you)

[windeity]

gASP. KIM!!! Oh my god hello! It is me, definitely playing the same characters ten years later. It's so good to see you!! I was rereading a lot of Shiki's old stuff the other day which is why I wanted to maybe tentatively throw her back into the ring and that meant a whole reread of all Luceti stuff. Still some of the most fun I've had ♥

And welcome back from hiatus!! DWRP is an adventure.

So late to the party!

[sonofacesius]

Our Percy just dropped over in hadrielmods. We currently have a Will, Annabeth and a Nico. If you're still looking around, check us oout and feel free to ask questions!
