December 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 either frozen or screened (based on what seems right based on the content).

FOR CHARACTER ADS:

Put up an ad about the characters you are offering. For PSL 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 section, where you post your character's 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.

There is a "Find Crosscanon" section, where you can talk about a character you play and and desired crosscanon for that character. Please make sure this is not too generalized a search, because just wanting general crosscanon can be accomplished with the other sections of the meme. This is for specific characters or character types you're looking for. In the subject, please list the "Looking for [canon you're looking for]" rather than your character's canon. If looking for a character type, list the character type in as few words as possible. Do not make the subject huge or I'll screen your comment. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Find Crosscanon" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. This section is only for game crosscanon as in the psl section people can list their preferences.

Examples of crosscanon you can search for: You play The Flash from DC Comics and your dream CR is fellow speedster Quicksilver from Marvel. Or you might play a witch and want cr with other witches in general. Or maybe you play a good character messed up by evil parents and want to play against a villain character you know has evil parents, because you know it'd lead to some interesting negative CR.

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 frozen or screened. Keep in mind this needs to be more specific than "this game has easy AC like you're asking for but meets none of your other requirements." Make sure you're advertising games that might click with that specific character, where a few elements fit what they're looking for. You should be thinking about the story reasons of how the character might click with the game.

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 frozen or screened.

Important note: IP logging has turned on due to multiple instances past and present of problem players trying to return to the dwrp community via emp after being banned other places, so I'll be IP logging from now on, and will compare notes with the rpa and wg mods (as well as game mods) where appropriate if it seems like someone that has been mass banned. I will not pay attention to IPs otherwise. I don't care what people like playing or who's who. So please feel comfortable to keep doing your thing, anon or otherwise. The knowledge will only be used for really egregious problem cases.

death stranding, metal gear solid, no more heroes - cross-canon adored!

[personal profile] princessbeach 2019-12-29 05:53 am (UTC)(link)
[Offering:]

Amelie | Death Stranding
Fragile | Death Stranding
Laughing Beauty (yeah idk why she was the muse for me either) | Metal Gear Solid 4
Shinobu Jacobs (in either the 21 year old flavor in NMH2 or 28 year old flavor in Travis Strikes Again) | No More Heroes

[Preferences:]

General:
- I am down for just about anything, really. I'm into gen, angst, shipping (f/m and f/f fine for most, but no underage characters, though), and even smut is good.
- I've got more experience in memes, but looking to try to dip my toes into PSLs as well! -- More comfortable with brackets, but willing to brush up on my prose too.
- I work in retail and have to travel a fair amount (ah the pitfalls of living in a small town), so I might not tag back every day, but I do at least try to tag at least once a day (I get every other weekend off, if that helps). Basically, I'm not the fastest tagger around, but I am consistent, usually.

Amelie: I'm mostly looking for gen or angst type of stuff with her, but willing to try out shippy stuff too (hell, maybe smut if it goes that way). As far as castmates go, Sam, Cliff, Higgs, Die-Hardman, and maybe Heartman would all work pretty well for her. However, I will never turn a castmate down if anyone has any ideas. As far as cross-canon goes, anyone in a similar position of power might be pretty fun!

Fragile: The sky's pretty much the limit here, to be honest. Her personality will work with just about everyone and I'm willing to put her in all kinds of flavors of rp stuff, whether it be platonic or shippy. Sam or Higgs (whether it be pre-betrayal stuff or the fucked, post-betrayal stuff is all good in my books) would be the obvious choices here, but it is a crying shame she didn't get to hang with the rest of the cast more, and all too happy to correct that.

Laughing Beauty: Honestly looking more for cross-canon stuff for her (particularly ship related stuff), but I'll hang with castmates for gen stuff too. She's basically a recovering tool of war, trying to fit herself back into society again (and literally can't stop laughing). She tends to work really well with anti-heroes, morally grey characters, other people with shitty pasts, but I can honestly make her work with a lot of types.

Shinobu: I know there's like maybe five of us left across the No More Heroes canon and its one spinoff (please be good, NMH3!), so I'm not expecting much here, honestly. It's a very silly canon, though, so I'm more than willing to throw her in any stupid situation to be that one person to sass her way through it. But it's also a super violent canon, so fight threads are v good. As far as shipping goes, all I ask is that it's some dude able to kick her ass (she's the one I have to say f/m only), she's weird like that.

If you ever want to play around with Higgs with either of your girls, I'm totally down!

Absolutely! I'll try to post both on memes more, otherwise we can try to come up with something for PSLs, if you'd prefer that.

I'm absolutely up for anything, PSLs or otherwise! If you throw anything up on any memes, please let me know!
