January EMP Meme
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!

The concept of the game is that characters are rescued from an Enemy and brought to be a Host for an alien symbiote that telepathically links them to the rest of the Nest and gives them a specialized ability. The Nest goes on regular months-long missions to various alien locals that have different genre flavors - right now, the mission is very espionage themed, and they've gone on grand airship rides, hunted giant seabests, and had competitions with robot horses, along with trying to uncover information to stop the Enemy from getting a foothold in that part of the universe.
The game is fairly slow-paced; the calendar moves ahead according to the needs of the plot, so sometimes we'll cover 3-4 IC days in 3-4 OOC days, but other times we'll spend 2 OOC weeks on 1 IC day that has a lot of plot and happenings. It means you have to pay attention to calendar happenings, but it's really nice because you have time to develop CR and write out those plot developments instead of doing a lot of handwaving and assumptions. But because the game is so small and there's such a focus on quality CR and plot development, there is a steep AC requirement of 30 comments per month. I personally rarely ever have trouble meeting this because everyone is super backtag friendly.
We do currently have a Noctis and Prompto who are both taken from the end of FFXV, so Ignis wouldn't be on his lonesome! And aside from canonmates, it's incredibly easy to get CR in this game. Characters are part of broods (groups of 6 people within the Nest) that are formed by the those who arrive closest in time to each other, and broods have a stronger mental connection to each other that basically means they're all up in each others business all the time. It's like a roommate dynamic, but with memory sharing and accidental dreamwalking and all sorts of potential shenanigans.
Sorry for the novel, and here are some links! If you're curious about the game and have any questions, feel free to hit me up.
