April 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.

Sci-Fi/Fantasy OCs with anime PBs

[personal profile] lakan 2020-04-25 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
OFFERING:
• Troy Dantes (this journal)
• Sofia Sinclair ([profile] chronika)
• Ayame Sasaki ([profile] shinsoku)
• Carina Stormcrow ([personal profile] skygge)
• Veylin Arlette ([personal profile] cercle)
• Eclair ([personal profile] keranos)
• Juno Gundlach ([personal profile] arken)
• And others. I have 50+ OCs and growing!
• I have a musebox with a structured setting that I built for PSLs. It's a sci-fi setting, but it's flexible enough to include fantasy characters within it if you want.

SEEKING:
• Other OCs would be wonderful! I'm open to cross-medium, but in my experience they just mesh well against other anime-styled characters due to similarities in tone. Although I try to mix some more Western media tropes and styles into them too. I have played against characters from Western video games and superheroes, and they worked out pretty well!
• I love combining sci-fi and fantasy as one, or having them meet. I love the idea of a futuristic group traveling to a medieval fantasy world or something less advanced and have them interact with each other, comparing and contrasting cultures.
• Action-adventure. I have a bunch of ideas in my head for missions and quests, boss-fights and NPC factions for PvE scenarios, and settings for explorations. I can come up with a setting more tailored for both our characters, but this is a difficult scenario to manage so a lot of planning could help, and I can grant you some NPC control to lighten the load on myself.
• Lighter things, such as shipping and smut.
• I love a lot of canons and wish I could play from them, so I would love to play against them at least! Canons like: the MCU, Mass Effect, Valkyria Chronicles, Fire Emblem (esp. Fates and Three Houses), Fate Grand Order, Devil May Cry, Bayonetta, Persona (esp. 3, 4, and 5), RWBY, Guilty Gear, Xenogears/Xenosaga/Xenoblade, Granblue Fantasy. I do like idol stuff too, like the Love Lives, Idolmaster, and Zombie Land Saga. None of the listed characters above would really mesh with idols though (except maybe Ayame? Maybe Troy too? It depends), but listing it here so you know I might be forgetting some other canons too, but those are some of my favorite canons!

I hope you know that you made me log into this account for the first time in like a year, one because hello someone knows Xenogears??? And two, because the similarity in that username to a certain someone cracks me up. I don't have any decently fleshed out OCs, but if you would be okay with an incredibly rusty Elly and some AUing............

Haha, wow I'm flattered that I made you log in to an old account then! lol.

But hey, hello again! We were in Prisma together for a minute. But I'm all for Elly and some AUing! We can plot it on Plurk if that's easier for you. I don't mind re-adding you or just having a private plurk we can use for discussion.

different account but

[personal profile] missleading 2020-04-27 12:12 am (UTC)(link)
I've never been in Prisma, actually! Could you be thinking of Aefenglom perhaps? In any case, I don't really use Plurk much at all anymore, so PM/Discord would be easiest. Feel free to message me here!

[personal profile] lakan 2020-04-27 12:16 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah Aefenglom was the one I meant to type there orz. Troy here was the one I sent there, albeit with a different account.

But yeah, I'm gonna hit you up.
