March 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!

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. |

♥ PREFERENCES
✔ My favorite things to play are romance, psychological horror and sometimes slice-of-life. Adventure, sci-fi, fantasy and more general stuff can be very fun to play, too! Mixing genres is usually ideal.
✔ I am happy with shippy and non-shippy roleplays alike! Keep in mind Monika may develop one-sided feelings even in non-shippy things, it really depends on the circumstances. When it happens, it's less about her being in love and more her being so desperate that she clings onto whoever gives her some sliver of hope. Her learning these feelings aren't love are part of her development (or not, depending on the scene).
✔ As a general rule? Scenes with a focus on character development are what I love. Scenarios that will challenge the characters's understanding of the world. Scenarios that will force Monika to make difficult choice or even force her to reconsider what she believes to be the truth. That's pretty similar to what she went through in DDLC, but here I want to see it taken a step further. Is the real world as amazing as she'd hoped? What can she do when she loves someone and has no way to manipulate her environment or force them to click "yes?" How will she deal with all the trauma from DDLC, now that she has to face what she went through and what she did? That sort of things.
✔ I have been very interested in villains of late, and would love to try a scene where a villain manipulates Monika by pulling on the right strings, namely her desire to come to the real world and her need for affection. In that same vein, I am also very interested in corruption. As example, the sort of corruption akin to being seduced and manipulated to serve the dark side in Star Wars, or the Servant to Servant Alter transformation in Fate/. For such a scene, I would be open to darker themes than usual.
✔ I am more than happy to play with any canon (or OCs for that matter)! Monika can fit in pretty much any given setting since upon escaping her reality, there's no rule that says she has to pop up in our real world. AUing is fine, to an extent. The sad and tragic elements of her backstory should be translated to something similar and just as damaging in the AU, so that she remains more or less the same character.
★ SHIPPING
✔ I'm happy with M/F or F/F!
✔ Favorite things would be angst, domestic life, (arranged) marriage, slow burn, conflicts.
✔ Romance is 10/10. But I'd rather built it over the characters being crazy about one another from the get-go.
✔ I absolutely adore hypnosis (with Monika being the hypnotized one). It's not a requirement by any means though!
✔ In a similar vein, corruption is adored for darker RPs, see above.
✔ As said above, mixing genres is key. For example fluff is amazing, but would get boring after a while. Having conflict or angst between fluff though? Makes it all the better!
• Pure smut doesn't interest me. It can happen long as it feels natural, of course! But sex for the sake of sex is boring.
✘ Needless to say, I want both the player and character to be 18+!
✘ I do not have any interest in a character who'd be the "player" from DDLC. It's not only boring but also entirely unhelpful to Monika's development.
➤ OTHER
• Expect me to tag at least once a day. Sometimes I can tag more than that, and on rare occasions I may skip a day.
• I can't boomerang. Backtagging is just fine! If you can't rp for a week or more, it's totally okay.
• Prose or bracket, I'll follow whatever you prefer.
• I live in Europe (GMT+1/2), so expect tags at odd US times.

Alternatively, your preferences for Monika align pretty well with mine, so I'd love to see if we can figure something out! I really like forcing characters to grow and change, et al.

I'll admit right now I have a soft spot for the villainous idea since I'm not used to playing it, but if you want something with non-villains I'm happy to go with that too, cute and fluffy wins the day.
