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.

GUNDAMS @ ERKU

[personal profile] heeroics 2020-08-31 03:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[game]: [community profile] erku
[fandom]: Gundam franchise
[game's current cast]: Mobile Suit Gundam, Char's Counterattack, IBO (feat. Gjallarhorn), Unicorn, Wing, ZZ. Check out the taken list here. We also have honorary Gundams from Code Geass and gen:LOCK.
[who I play]: Heero Yuy (Gundam Wing)
[wanted]: more Wings, more colonial protags, but overall just more mobile suit types! and GIRLS. Specific requests have been voiced for: Char (MSG), Full Frontal (Unicorn), Zechs (Wing), Treize (Wing), Relena (Wing), and Rustal (IBO).
[game info]: From the premise: [community profile] erku is a panfandom island jamjar where a superstitious supercomputer believes the life energy from intimacy will revitalize a long-destroyed island. There are shades of sci-fi dystopia, and players will have direct influence on the development of the world around them. In practice, the game is essentially Smut Bingo where characters are challenged to complete certain "Auspicious Acts" in return for favors and requests that will benefit both them and the world of Erku. Characters truly have a direct impact on the development of the setting and the direction of the game! AC is simple, pace is medium and very backtag friendly, and there is no mandatory smut AC - which means your character can take things at their own pace. If you have any questions, just ask!

I admit I haven't posted in a smut game before - what's the pacing like? Is it pretty slow (which would be easier for me imo) or is it pretty busy?

Re: GUNDAMS @ ERKU

[personal profile] spacerat 2020-09-01 03:03 pm (UTC)(link)
I'd say overall it's on the slower end. Ac is five comments a month (doesn't need to be smut!) and we do have a variety of speeds in taggers from slower to pretty fast. In my experience though, everyone is very chill with regards to tag speeds. I work full time, and I have a lot of fun with it!

Our TDM goes up on the 18th, and I'm still tagging threads from my TDM (which was the one in July).

I'll consider tossing him in. :3

EXCELLENTE

I'll toss a TDM link your way - we also have our own Enable Me on the 15th where people put characters they are thinking of apping if you end up wanting to do that as well!

Either way I will gladly toss Duo your way :D He's from Endless Waltz, so that should make for some interesting CR.

Re: GUNDAMS @ ERKU

[personal profile] zechs_isonfire 2020-09-03 04:16 pm (UTC)(link)
Thank you!

I usually take Zechs after Endless Waltz - I personally ignore all of Frozen Teardrop (... sorry?) but I do have him as on Mars after, as EW suggests.

I'm looking forward to Duo being so, so happy to see him. :D

[personal profile] spacerat 2020-09-03 04:42 pm (UTC)(link)
In this house we don't talk about Frozen Teardrop. (J/k about the only thing I run with is that Duo is a bit of a committophobe and not to The Degree of FT, I already had that before it came out).

Also awesome, it will be awkward, fun CR times for all involved. Especially the other gundam casts

Zechs is perhaps the most Char out of all the Char clones, I think they'll all be naturally inclined to dislike him.

Which, honestly, he's expecting? So that'll be fun. XD

This is especially traumatizing for GARMA ZABI who we actually have, from right after Char blew him to bits.

[personal profile] zechs_isonfire 2020-09-03 04:52 pm (UTC)(link)
Fun, fun, times. He won't even question all the death glares. I think he's kind of used to them after the whole, nearly dropping a battle fortress onto earth plan.

I've replied to the Duo-mun above - I've been itching to play Zechs, but I don't have the schedule atm for a fast-paced game ... I'd like to get a feel for what Erku is like?

I'd say Erku is medium to slow in pace, and I'm on the slower end myself! Even the very fast taggers are very accommodating about backtagging, ime. There is a CR meme, an event, and a TDM every month and none of them fill up crazy fast, but even if you don't top level you can still get plenty of CR by tagging in.

Well you both have enabled me enough to create a new journal ... I'll continue considering to toss him in. >:D
