August 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.

Yes, let's do it!! I took a look at Bakerstreet and it's truly a hellscape of shipping buuuut it looks like there's a picture prompt meme and a karaoke meme within the past few days if you want me to toss up a starter on either of those and link it to you. Unless you were interested in shipping—I'm a-okay either way but definitely didn't want to assume.

Otherwise I'm happy to just put up a post in my journal and we can do something else if you had a particular scenario in mind!

I'd be interested in throwing Ed at any of them if you'd be down? Have a couple of ideas, depending on what might be of interest. I'm familiar with the DCAU so I can pretty easily adapt him to fit.

Yes, workshops and TDMs are always open! You can either wait until the dates listed in the ad for the new workshop and TDM, or if you want to get a head start you're welcome to use the current set. We'll still allow entries there for public registration, or sooner with an invite.

Labyrinthian - An RPG Themed Exploration Game

[personal profile] labyrinthian_mods 2020-09-01 01:53 am (UTC)(link)


You are going about your normal (or not so normal) day when suddenly, right in front of you a translucent blue panel appears. In fancy swirling cursive, it says:
Which fades out to be replaced by two options:

NEW GAME LOAD GAME


“Load Game" is greyed out and you cannot select it (unless, of course, you are returning again). The panel also refuses to go away no matter what you do.

Eventually, either because you’re fed up or an accident happens (maybe you trip while walking or gesture while talking). Regardless of how it happened, you end up pressing the ‘New Game’ button.

Then the world goes dark.

When you wake up you are in something like a cryogenic pod within a broken down, modern looking building in the middle of a lot of overgrown greenery.

Before you can get your bearings another message pops up:

NEW QUEST!! Make it out of Gladsheim alive! Fight your way to safety!




Labyrinthian is an panfandom roleplaying game with a focus on action and adventure, exploration and RPG elements, loosely based on the Etrian Odyssey game series. Characters arrive in a town full of NPCs connected to two labyrinths full of mystery, adventure and dangerous monsters.

Work together to form guilds, fight monsters, complete quests and try not to lose your temper at the NPCs who keep repeating their stock phrases and forcing you to sit through tutorials and explanations without a SKIP button in sight.

And of course, they must navigate another mainstay of RPGs: a job class system that gives them new abilities to replace their own (with a possibility of regaining a version of their powers later on). Or maybe you’re a veteran gamer and all this is familiar to you and all you have to worry about is convincing your less trope savvy companions that it’s not weird to look through every urn you find.

All this while you try to solve the mystery of the labyrinth...and hope that doing so will lead you to a way home.

Oh hello! Yes it really has been a while! I've actually been playing Noiz consistently over the past few years so I've been around haha.

Yeah, I'd be down to do something new. Did you have anything in mind for Clear/Noiz?

Your username is extremely good and I love it a lot. Also I admire that you're just playing everybody, like that's incredible. This whole listing is beautiful and amazing.

I've got Stan here, and for cross canon tragically I can't give you an Eda (I know, I'm sad about it too) but I do have Wirt from Over the Garden Wall! He's fun with the younger GF crowd for sure. :> ...I also definitely have younger Stans of various ages available because I have w a y too many journals for him haha.

Of course I missed the big bolded dates staring me right in the face. 😔 But that's very good to know, thank you! Also, weird question, but do you typically open claims at fixed time during your application/reservation or at a random time on the day of?

Outside of not over-complicating a core idea to the point of losing track of what I was doing with the plot (l-lol), I don't have any particular thoughts. But now that I know you're up for it, I'm sure I can get some percolating with your input! Is there an expression of the ship that you're craving that I can indulge for you?

the perks of being bonded to a misanthrope-- if you're not human, MAYBE you're okay! 8'D

do you have any ideas on how they might have gotten started or first met? or how their soulbond would work or manifest?

Cross canon CR is always a blessing. If offers so many more opportunities that would not be present otherwise.

Most of my Disney knowledge is second hand, but I will certainly give it a look and poke the test drive perhaps. It would be interesting to see Iroh adjust to no longer being a fire bender.

Voidtracker I am familiar with and heard many wonderful things about. I have several friends on Plurk in the game. Perhaps the two of them could share a pot of tea in the diner car sometime?

And of course, I am game for PSL anytime that you are ready. I know that moving can be very hectic and stressful, and the great thing about PSL is that there is no need to rush them, they can begin and resume at any time.

Hi! ♥ It's been a while since I've had the opportunity to actually play Michiru as well, so we're in the same boat there! While I do usually prefer to play in the manga canon for the inners, with Michiru I don't mind so much because the anime didn't butcher the outers quite so badly, so I'm really open to whichever you prefer! (I have an anime journal for her at [personal profile] deepseas!)

Hey man it's a twist I've never done before. Messed up and kind of hilarious all at the same time. I'm game. X3

So generally speaking I tend to playing soulbonds as kind of a sixth-sense feeling of attachment to the other person with no other concrete evidence for it. Leaves more room for confusion/denial of the bond than verses that use tattoos, glows, whatever. (But if you enjoy any of those other tropes, just say so!) Clear can easily confuse that feeling with 'this person is Master!' and gain persistent tagalong status whether Sid wants it of him or not.

As for the other part: if you dropped Sid wholesale into your ideal cyberpunk AU, what would it be like? When robots have the potential to be everywhere, Clear is probably easier to mold to Sid than vice versa.
