January EMP Meme

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!

I'd love to see a John (or Percy, honestly, but I have cast for John so let's roll with that) at [community profile] 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 [community profile] takamagahara, and I'd be happy to answer any other questions you have about the game!

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!

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.
