June 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.

I'm just hitting up all the Voltrons we don't have but it pings most of your list so what's the harm in suggesting it?

[community profile] thewake is a jamjar game where characters wake up in the center of the multi-verse. They're given the ability to bend reality to their will (with enough time and practice put into it) and can use this ability essentially however they please. They're supposed to use this ability to keep the worlds on course for the events that are supposed to happen, but things can happen, worlds can become flawed, splinter timelines created, and people can be sent to go clean up the mess in creative ways. There's also the hub, "Nautilus", that people can just hang out in and live as well.

We're due to start our next bit of metaplot soon, and there are regular events called reality storms, which is basically the city itself bending reality however it pleases. It can do things like make everyone pokemon trainers, believe they grew up in a completely different alternate universe, or turn them into MLP style ponies for a week. It's chaotic, but a lot of fun.

It's slow-to-medium paced with back-tag friendly AC -- you can use posts up to 6 months old for activity checks as long as there's activity within the current month. There are limits to this, but it does encourage a lot of backtagging in the playerbase in general.

We currently have Keith and Lance in terms of castmates for Allura. Lance is the more recent arrival, having come in May from the tail end of 5x5. Keith has been there for over a year and is from the end of 2x8 at the moment. I know they'd both love to see Allura again (though Keith might be nervous over it all things considered).

If you're interested, we have more general game information over here and a bi-monthly test drive meme if you just want to test the setting. The most recent one is here, and if you like I can also link to the July-August one once that gets put up. Hope to see you there!

Thank you very much! I know the Wake has been around for a while but I admittedly haven't known much about it. That's very unique in terms of being able to use threads that old, but thoughtful. I will definitely take a look!

Yeah, I've never run into a system quite like it. I won't lie, it has saved my butt during AC a few times when I just couldn't be super active, but it's also nice to have extra incentive to complete those really old threads. Allowing them to count for AC has let me finish threads a lot more often with people there, at least that's what I've found.

Thanks for commenting back, by the way. :) I really appreciate it!

It is! The game I'm in right now with different characters is a lot more AC intensive, so it is very appealing to see a different system.

Oh, of course! It's the least I can do for the recommendation. Thank you very much!
