enablemeplz | April 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.

[game]:

riverview
[fandom]: Voltron: Legendary Defender
[game's current cast]: Keith, Shiro
[who I play]: Keith
[wanted]: Hunk, Pidge, Lance, Allura, Coran, Matt, Blades of Marmora, other coalition characters, even baddies!!
[game info]: Riverview is a build your own adventure style game with opportunities to make it as slice of life or as exploration adventure as you want. You can world build, find regains from home using AC points, have your character work in the local bar, rebuild the abandoned city, or be a part of the Perimeter Guard to protect the city from weird monsters that live in the woods. Player run plots are encouraged, missions come up each month for adventure seekers, and we have monthly holiday events and wackiness. (Age down? Turn into an animal? Get stuck in a kissing bubble? It happens!)

Keith and Shiro currently have their own place outside of communal living with enough room for more castmates, and are also currently accompanied by small versions of the Black and Red Lions of Voltron that were earned with AC bonus points. Keith is currently set for the end of season 4 for his canon point, and Shiro is currently the end of season 2. We're open to people from any canon point!

If you have any questions, feel free to ask, or you can check out game info through the main navigation post here: https://riverviewmod.dreamwidth.org/3399.html

We look forward to seeing you!

Color me interested! I'm just getting this journal set up but I'm raring to go.

In general, how easy is the game to keep up with?

o hai!

It's pretty decent. Cross canon and new CR is definitely encouraged because there is a character cap, but you only need one thread each month with ten comments from your character. There are exploration and holiday event mingles, which gives you the option for SoL or adventure that month. Player plots are welcome, so that's a way to drum up interest, too. There is also a mission board where you can grab a mission and grab some other players, and do up something along those lines.

There are lots of opportunities.

And, if you're tight for AC, but have more than one thread going, you can combine two threads if you have two to make the comment count. One thread is preferred, though.

Sounds neat!

I'm sorry if this is a dumb question, since I'm new to dreamwidth rp... how are the missions run? Does a mod or someone run them like a D&D session, or do the players start with all the details on how the mission is going to end up?

There's definitely some plotting back and forth, but, most of the missions are player run, even if the mod posts them. It's really just a matter of trusting us the players not to go and solve it too easily in one go and all that. There aren't any dice or checks like in D&D. Doing it that way might slow it down too much anyway, all things considered, since players are spread out across timezones and have different schedules, so getting everyone together for a chat to do any D&D style RPing might end up being prohibitive to getting something finished.

Ah! That makes sense, thank you.

The game premise looks really interesting. Off to the test drive!
