October 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. ➤ ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding (no font size > size 4 or 3 "big" tags, no banners, no blinking text, no obnoxious tables, no sparklies, no 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 frozen 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. Try not to recommend the same game to every single ad, either. MOD CONTACT: If there's trouble, tell us HERE, please! RESOURCES: enablemeplz - The plurk for Enable Me Plz.

Comments

Doctor Who + others

[not_the_question]

[character offered]: Twelfth Doctor
[fandom]: Doctor Who

I have a slew of characters I haven't done much with in over a year, I might be enabled to drag those out, but will need some canon review for them/major work on apps.

Such Fandoms include: Other Doctor Who Characters (including Classic and BFA), BBC Musketeers, BBC Sherlock, NeverWhere, Orphan Black, Star Wars

[rp type you'd wanna play in]: Games/PSLs/Memes

[preferences]:
Dreamwidth Only
Community Only (IE: no using personal journals for anything, no wikis, etc)
Prefer smaller games, but will consider bigger games if speed/AC are a good match.
Slow to medium pace
Easy AC (IE: 1 post and 1 comment thread of no more than 10 comments/month)
Overarching plot + events
Preferred Premise: Mystery, Horror, Sci-Fi
Minimal Slice of Life (The less slice of life, the better)
Canon Updating Allowed
Sex friendly games are fine, not interested in games that have sex as a requirement
Power loss/memory loss games will be considered, but depends on premise and if regains are possible
Prefer games where Fandom OCs and CRAU are not allowed
Games that allow AUs will be considered
'Simple games' (IE: games without complex ac points (even if easy), no games with wikis, etc.)
Complex premises are fine as long as the Mods keep a 'world-rules' type page up-to-date
Castmates not required, but a few would be nice (Classic Who characters would be awesome.)
Apps that allow for web-links for History section

I currently have the Doctor at medietas_comm

Closed Games that I have enjoyed: Sonarium, Mayfield, Haven, the Box

I've had a blast playing with you at Med, so if you wouldn't mind a second game with the same castmate, I can offer you faderift for the Doctor or anyone else you'd like to bring in? It's got an overarching mod plot as well as war table missions and lots and lots of player plots to get tangled up in, and the plots have actually run the gamut from diplomacy to intrigue to mystery and horror, with the overarching plot being basically to fight to save the world.

While it's in the Dragon Age universe you really don't need to know a lot about the games to bring in someone straight from canon - or even to AU someone into the world, since there's a guide available and lots of people who'd be happy to help out. The basic AC is 5 log comments or 10 network tags or 1 log post, with an option to save extra points to use towards rewards to get all sorts of nifty stuff!

There's also a test drive here if you want to give that a whirl with whoever strikes your fancy it also meets a few of your other criteria, so I hope you'll take a look - or let me know if you have any questions.

[not_the_question]

Oh gosh, I know nothing about Dragon Age, so I'm glad that's not required LOL

I'll start with the Test Drive and we'll see where it goes! May not get it up tonight, but I'll try.

[wontforgetyou]

The mods have definitely kept that in mind when they put things together, so hopefully the stuff they've gotten'll give you an idea at least. The setting guide is here if you want to take a look first, but I'll keep an eye out on the TDM for you. Or drop me a PM, but no rush. Whenever you get a chance to get something up I'll be happy to send Jamie over.
