enablemeplz | February 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.

Thank you!

And I tempt you because I DESIRE MY MARMORA SITCOM INTENSELY and also, I love my Keith. I love many things! I had super close cross-canon CR with the cast way before I even watched the show at all, and we've written so many beautiful things.

Also, AC is pretty small and all of us backtag. And this month I am getting Kolivan a proper Tall People House to live in...!

...in all seriousness, I know exactly how it is being overloaded with RP, but here is my plurk. Come hang out with us! Maybe we can at least (slowly) meme from time to time.

So! On paper, Emp's AC looks very doable, and I am so very tempted, you have no idea. But I'm in Syn and Syn tends to move very fast and be very plotty. Like, in Feb most of the Voltron cast ended up getting involved in a slave rebellion against a ~~not!Galra~~ tyrannical interstellar empire and pretty much everybody got hit in the issues when Thace and Allura both died heroically during. The fallout has been glorious so far, but I worry that I'd end up neglecting Thace in another game because everything happens so much with him in Syn. On the other hand, your Matt is also Syn's Matt, so it might indeed be doable both on paper and in actuality.

I'm thinking very hard about tossing him in the TDM anyway, but I make no promises.

I will definitely add you on plurk though, because more people to talk about Voltron with will be amazing (season 5 omg). I'm Naturalcyber there, so you know it's me.

Just so it's all in writing here in case we have any other drivebys -- Emp is pretty great plot-wise in that if you really want to, you can 100% ignore it. For example, my other character has been there since the start of the game over 3 years ago, and while I usually have him around during events that come to the area he actually lives in, the vast majority of his CR and his threads are slice of life and trolling people. He is the sparkly Victorian adopted uncle mentioned up above in the ad, and I get plenty of satisfaction just working within the setting precisely because he's surrounded by so many great characters. Next month he's making them all go out dancing!

Meanwhile, I apped Kolivan in partially because he's more likely to go on the expeditions and things that my other character has no interest in. We had one this month, but uncle sparkleflapper had so much drama going on that I wound up ignoring it, and was still fine for AC because we had Lotor for him to talk to and because Steven Universe recently regained his pink lion friend and Kolivan wished to Gather Intel™. A lot of the cast can be pretty slow, but our Allura in particular is usually around and reliable if you get to the end of the month and need a thread, and likewise my schedule is super open and given plenty of warning I can sit down and boomerang.

And so! While there's pretty much always plot available, the setting itself gives you a ton to work with because of all the emotion effects and magic going on, and if other things have your attention it's super easy to say "Thace spent this month generating calm for the angry whale god and sipping alcoholic smoothies". That's genuinely helpful as a mechanism! It all depends on what you'd want out of having Thace in the game. ~~Marmora Sitcom~~
