November 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.

Marvel comics

Offering Clint Barton, Natasha Romanoff, Katie Barton

Seeking For Clint, I'm looking for Natasha, and for Natasha a Clint. Clintasha is my OTP above all OTPs, and I've just had so little opportunity to RP the 616 versions of these characters. There's just so much to explore there, especially since they were sort of together when she died and have barely talked since she came back. I would love to explore them working through things to a point where they can be be happy together.

And speaking of working through things, Katie Barton was introduced in Captain Marvel: The End as a future child of Clint and Natasha. She comes from a post apocalyptic world where most of the heroes have died, and it would be really interesting to play her off some young version of her parents. That book, and the current Captain Marvel arc that's revisiting that world, also introduced some other awesome characters that would be fun to play with! would love anyone else (or a small group!) from this world!

Notes: I took a break from RPing and am just trying to get back into it so may be slow. I'm also in it for long term PSLs, so if you're a slow poster too that's okay!

I will also play pretty much every other version of either Clint or Natasha too, so while 616 is what I most want, I'm not writing off other offerings.

I have 616 Natasha here, and I would seriously love any of these scenarios! So, honestly, whichever one you're most feeling, I will roll with. ♥️

omg hi!

After Secret Empire I was dying to play out a proper reunion between them and was super disappointed by how it was handled in the actual comics, so that would probably be my #1 scenario, or their first time meeting again after Tales of Suspense and the Dear John letter she left him.

They have such a complicated relationship and such different morals, yet there are a few universes they were able to make it work and it would be so fun to fill in those blanks!

hey hey! i know we just ran into each other on a meme, but i'd totally be down for a longer psl! HOWEVER i haven't been keeping current with comics as religiously as i used to, so i'm not 100% up to date!

Hello there!

That's totally okay! I've always been one to pick and choose my comics (I rarely keep up with any events, for one thing) so we can always figure out a canon point that works for both of us! I just really love their dynamic so much, but the only time they seem to be trying to make a go of things one or both of them ends up dead. If the writers won't give them an honest shot then I'll do it myself! lol

i totally feel you! and i'm also 100% up for reading summaries/certain issues if you've got a specific point you want to play with!

What canon point are you you currently at? Or is there one you feel most comfortable playing from?

usually i default to playing nat around the buckycap stuff or the samnee/waid run. i read through her death and then the beginning of tales of suspense, and dropped off after!

We could always do the Edmondson/Noto and Fraction/Aja era? I didn't read a lot of the runs you mention since I am not a fan of buckynat, but I did read Secret Empire and Tales of Suspense. Also Kot's Secret Avengers was a really fun time!

Sweet! I can set something up in my journal, or my old musebox (if I can remember the password lol), unless you have somewhere you prefer to play?
