November EMP Meme

[enablemeplz]

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'm mostly just shopping around to see what's out there and where might be a good fit for her, so please feel free to make a game pitch even if your game doesn't strictly tick every single one of the above criteria!

Additionally, I've been tossing her at memes lately and I'd be open to memes, PSLs, and one-on-one RP with her as well!

Lisaaa

driftfleet sounds like a perfect fit for that! It fulfills all those options. Here's the overview. We have a new planet/setting every other month, decently paced. AC is low but activity is medium and steady! I'm currently there with Alucard and I would love to see Lisa too!

Let me know if you have any other questions.

[matercula]

Hey! I actually used to play in Drift Fleet like...years ago, so I'm fairly familiar with the premise and structure and all that, yeah! I really enjoyed it while I was there, too, though I eventually lost steam with the character I was playing at the time.

How have you found the setting fit, in terms of bringing characters from the 1400s into a space/sci-fi sort of setting? Did you end up just having Alucard get an infodump to bring him up to speed upon arrival, or are you playing out the technology discrepancy outright, out of curiosity?

[ananym]

In Alucard's case, I play him as someone who is passingly familiar with technology (though albeit, not to the level of space and spaceships), so OOCly I don't have him overwhelmed by the technicalities of "how can this even exist". So I usually play it by ear (eg: alucard being surprised that androids exist, but not really shocked that the world has finally advanced to having ships that can carry in the sky and space).

We also just got a Trevor and Sypha as well, if that helps.

[matercula]

Oh, man, that's even more tempting. Alucard may just be the only person in the universe who could be hanging with his friends and happy to see his mom show up to crash the party.

That's good to know, though! I would imagine that Lisa was probably exposed to a similarly wide variety of foundational science stuff while at the castle, and thus able to make a similar transition, but obviously I would want to make sure any headcanon I used lined up with yours! So I'm glad we'd be on a wavelength in that respect.

[ananym]

Make him cry a lot, mom.

But yeah, let me know if you have any other questions ♥ Currently, they're all from Season One because DF has a two month rule for new canons but that shouldn't affect Lisa.

[matercula]

I'm laughing because the last time I joined DF my character's arrival was heralded by her castmates immediately jumping into a shuttle and trying to crash it directly into the Marsiva to get to her and now I'm just like

will history repeat itself

dun dun dunnnn

[ananym]

I mean

I won't say no.

breaking news: weeping space vampire requires peeling off of outside of giant-ass spaceship viewing port

area vampire was reported to have been wailing for his mommy at time of extraction

[ananym]

news update: vampire has tried stabbing spaceship with a very large sword. people are concerned.

[matercula]

the best part about this mental image is the thought of trevor literally never letting him live it down

the second best part is everybody finding out his middle name is fahrenheit when his mom full-names him like ADRIAN FAHRENHEIT TEPES YOU GET DOWN FROM THERE THIS INSTANT

[ananym]

mom plz not in front of his dracula hunting buddies

[matercula]

if you thought treffy was bad get ready for.........wacky dracula family embarrassing baby stories

[ananym]

i think that would ruin "treffy" more than alucard.

[matercula]

Hey, one last question for you! I see DF does its test drive memes seasonally - is the autumn one still getting use, or at this point would it be better to just wait for the one coming in December?

[ananym]

Up to you! The Winter one should be going up really soon but if you want to tag before then, you can use the Autumn one. People still check it and I will probably link it out if you do use it.

[matercula]

I was thinking I would wait and see if maybe the new one would go up today, but then I got impatient so surprise Alucard it's yo mom. ♥

[ananym]

I've pimped it onto my plurk ♥ The cast is very excited!
