February 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!

THE ADVENTURE ZONE @ LIFEAFTR

[deathfindsaway]

[game]: lifeaftr
[fandom]: The Adventure Zone: Balance
[game's current cast]: Taako, Lup, Kravitz
[who I play]: deathman adventurezone
[wanted]: EVERYBODY, but especially other IPRE and other BoB characters like Angus, Carey, or Killian, but LITERALLY anyone you can write an app for. Literally anyone. We've had a Lucas Miller and a Lydia before, no one is too obscure.
[game info]: A survival game located on a far-off archipelago, helped along by a god who runs on stories. From in-game votes, characters are allowed to travel to other islands, discover the mystery of the world itself, it's broken-off islands, and how they happened to come here. AC is VERY low (3 comments in a single thread per month) and involves HEAVY player interaction with the plot. You can also sit back and roll with the punches! It is important to note that it is a low-tech setting and there is some power nerfing (but not total loss)- check out the linked pages for more info.

You can find the premise and navigation here to poke around more, and our current test drive is over here! Apps are open until the end of the month (so I know it's a bit tight), but I'm happy to answer any questions you have!

Hnnnnnn I literally JUST made this account but this is so very tempting. Can you tell me a little bit more about how the power nerfing has translated for the TAZ kids? I'm still solidifying my understanding re: her powers, but it be good to have an idea of what that's looked like for some of the others.

[deathfindsaway]

It depends on exactly what the power is! So far the DND rule has been a limited set of spell slots for characters, I wanna say wizards are reduced to 3 when you first app but you can use ac favors to buy back more. Kravitz was a little more freeform because he didn't have spell slots exactly; he ended up having to have a flesh body (so no more fun reaper tricks) but getting to keep telepathy, his scythe, and some of his portaling ability. On the other hand, I also play a DND style monk in this game and all that got nerfed for her out of her entire skillset was her amount of ki points. So it depends on what the power is! Mostly it's a magic nerf, so if your character has a lot of physical skills they likely won't be touched.

Aaah that is very helpful! Thank you. I am way too late for February but I might keep this in mind for this month!

[deathfindsaway]

It's no problem! To help give a better spread, a critical role character got in this month and her nerfs were here! and if you wanna try us out first, the TDM should go up around the 13th-15th. we'd love to have you :)
