January 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.

    At some point you'll get tired of my user name appearing. Laughs.

    I don't know what your feelings are on about Horror games, but I've actually got Newt in [community profile] deerington at the moment. I want to say that the pace is very reasonable and I haven't had trouble with keeping up with the game. Your character wakes up in what is a Dreamscape of 1950s Maine. I've found there's plenty to do and that the mod event logs have been enjoyable.

    There isn't power nerfing so much as the game asks players to warp their powers, so they don't always work as intended. A page here is available on it.

    AC I find to be reasonable. It's on a point system (30 points total). All face to face threads are considered 3 points per comment and anything via device are 1 point per comment. Any open top level/posts are 10 points and you can mix. A lot of interaction tends to be face to face, so you feasibly can get by with 10 comments a month to make AC.

    The current plot is running from Jan and into Feb and the TDM should be coming up in a few days. If you've got any questions or anything, I'm happy to answer them.

    Never! I keep meaning to tell you how much I adore your username, actually. It's so perfect for Newt! (And I'm really enjoying the hell out of both our threads right now, so. <3.)

    I've actually been lowkey checking Deerington out, so I definitely appreciate the pitch! The concept sounds awesome, and the AC sounds pretty decent too. And I really like that concept of warping powers! A cool twist on power nerfing.

    I will definitely check out the TDM when it goes up!

    What's been your favorite aspect of the game so far?

    Ironically, I had picked it up before the second movie released and then him not wanting to take sides and all, it was oddly apt and I laughed. Somehow picking up a username that worked for him because I just wanted to make a name pun worked in my favor!

    The best part of AC is that they have a bonus reward system, so you can accumulate extra points for being more active. It's a nice incentive. I've been slowly regaining all of Newt's creatures through the bonus reward system.

    I'd be happy to link the TDM to you once it's live. Is there any particular ways of contacting you that you prefer?

    I'm a huge horror game junkie, tbh. My best and longest runs in games were Horror games. I just really like to make characters suffer :(

    Really? That's so great! I love it when life works out like that.

    Oh nice! Rewards systems are excellent; that's very good to know! And omg I'm so glad Newt is regaining his creatures!

    I would love that! You can DM me here at Tina's journal; that would be the best way to reach me.

    I love making characters suffer; I'm right there with you. XD

    Yeah. I got into Fantastic Beasts like a month before the second movie and now I'm stuck in HP hell in 2019.

    Yes. He's got his niffler, pickett, and swooping evil for now. I regained two occamy eggs and I'm planning on getting Dougal back before saving up for the zouwu. I'm excited.

    I'll be happy to! A lot of stuff gets posted on plurk and what not, so I'll be able to catch it and send it to you. If you seriously have any questions, do please message me and I'd be happy to help.

    uwu Suffering. My favorite.

    Ha ha. HP hell is the best kind of hell.

    Aww! Omg I love the zouwu! *3*

    That would be wonderful, thank you! I used to be on Plurk but I got overwhelmed so I tend to stick to journal PMs these days.

    It's like chocolate; delicious.

    The amount of HP related things I've bought recently is probably embarrassing.

    He's gonna cost so muchhhhhh.

    If you have discord, they have a discord channel where they link announcements and stuff. There's not too much chatter there if that's more your pace. They'll give you a link if you get accepted into the game.
