June EMP Meme
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. MOD CONTACT: If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please!

You're welcome, though! I'm always happy to help, and it's always nice to see other AtLAB players still around + the resurgence with Netflix having it available now. I don't mind the wait at all, just hit me up whenever it's best for you. :)
I actually don't play Katara anywhere any longer, if you mean her! Prisma was about the point when I realized I'd finally burned out on the muse for games (played her for a very long time in several games). I do still PSL, or I might toss her out on memes, but until some new material comes out (like that live action series, possibly) or a rewatch jolts her back, she's just kinda been on the backburner. So, Bakerstreet, museboxes, maybe Fortanon, and that's about it!
ETA: I forgot to say, but feel free to hit me with any questions you'd like to ask directly! I know the FAQ is pretty large/extensive. I'll let you know if it's anything I'm unsure about.

I'm actually a new Avatar fan, I'm totally from the Netflix bandwagon! But I binged it all at once manically and idk, I haven't had a muse hit me for a few years now, but something about the poor lil smad crispy baby prince spoke to me. I wanna do another rewatch or two before applications at Primsa open up, but I'm really excited about joining the fandom finally. It was like THE most poppin' cast in every game I've ever played in back in the day, feels like lol...
What are some dressingrooms or meme comms you know of? I'm looking for somewhere to throw this guy under this journal I'm using rn too. Definitely want to get in practice in these few weeks I have to kill before apps open again. Any exercise is good, haha!

Well then, welcome to the fandom! Be careful if you navigate Twitter! People are still very heatedly arguing about ships in this TYOOL 2020. 😂 Yeah, I know what you mean! I had the pleasure of being in a few of them myself and it's just filled with so many great players! I miss the golden days of having a near complete AtLAB cast. There are still casts around, of course, and you'll probably draw one out in time at Prisma (maybe pretty quickly given the number of people watching/rewatching). I hope it goes well and you have fun either way!
As for dressing rooms, hmm. I'm not sure about dressing rooms personally, though there are likely some still active on the older EMP posts. Dear_Mun is (almost surprisingly) still a place people use. For memes there's mostly still just bakerstreet and fortanon. There've been a few attempts at new ones but it always seems to fall through. Both are still viable, but aren't as massive as they used to be. Not necessarily a bad thing either, just some memes can be really slow going.
Your best bet may be TDM's, otherwise. Even if you don't plan on apping it's pretty common to see people posting to them or tagging them "just for fun". There are also often Call Me Out posts that you can find by browsing through Bakerstreet. If you're like me and aren't sure about tagging someone (if they don't make it obvious they're open to random tags) just hit them up first with a DM and let them know "Hey, saw you on X-BS meme and saw you had an open post. Mind X-prompt?".
These are just my experiences/thoughts, of course!
ETA: WOWEE I'M AN IDIOT. You should definitely hit up RP Anons! They have a section for "RP with me!" and "Ships you want to play" as well! I've used that to find some great RP partners and people use the former to find places and people to voice test with all the time! And also, if you go through bakerstreet don't be afraid to approach people for spins on prompt ideas! So long as you offer to still write the starter I've found people really open to discussion.
