November 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.

MOD CONTACT:

If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please!

Hi! Maybe you'd be interested in [community profile] deerington? It's a horror dreamscape, and while there IS body horror involved, you can easily opt out of those prompts and focus on the psychological horror aspects instead. Your characters MAY get scrapes and injuries here and there, though-- it gets pretty hectic whenever action threads go about. :) Powers aren't nerfed so much as they're warped (i.e. Logan can heal in his canon, but now when he heals his wounds get transferred to anyone nearby!), and you can read more about that here.

I think in general the game's pace depends on how much you involve your characters; if you decide to involve them in the plot a lot, you'll have to tag more! But if you just involve them enough to impact the setting, it's way easier to control how many threads you're doing at once.

AC is simple and points-based-- you need 30 points monthly to pass with log tags counting for 3 points each and network tags counting for 1 point each. Bonus points are slightly more complicated, but can be used to get extra stuff for your character (like items from their homeworld). Not everyone in game uses them, so you don't have to do all that extra calculation if you don't wanna. Or you can just compute enough until you have the amount of points you need for things and then not compute anything for the rest of your life.

I personally am in a GMT+8 timezone, and while most of the other players are elsewhere, some of them stay up pretty late or wake up pretty early! Everyone's chill with slower tags, though. I ALSO HAVE TO COMMEND THE CROSSCANON AND CROSSMEDIUM STUFF. So much of Logan's significant CR comes from crosscanon threads, and it's so so so fun and wonderful. <3

The game runs in EST and the December TDM (posted on [community profile] soddersays) goes up on the 30th of Nov. Reserves are from the 1st to 5th of December. Apps are from the 5th to the 10th. :D Also, here's the premise and full nav!

Hey! Sorry for the late reply! I was checking the TDM out. I was only able to tag one of the threads there and wasn't able to make a top-level of my own. Maybe next TDM? I'll check the game out more thoroughly. Thanks!
