ENABLEMEPLZ
meme goes up on the Second 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.

gruihjksn he's gonna put her to work on his new brand and she's already overworking herself for her new brand but she doesn't know how to say no so i think miwako is probably just gonna .... idk..... die here? death by fashion lol??

George with the ability to magically enchant clothes in any way is just mind-blowing. The sky's the limit now. They all came for him like FaSHioN iSnT THeAtRe and now he's like （￣︶￣)⊃━☆+ ﾟ .+ .ﾟ.ﾟ｡ﾟ｡. +ﾟ｡ﾟ.ﾟ｡☆*｡ . ｡ o .｡ﾟ｡.o｡* ｡ .｡bitch ｡ .｡

someone i know on plurk used to play miwako many years ago and has teased me with the suggestion of picking up caroline or arashi here off-and-on... maybe your George will tempt her into apping eventually. I've played Miwako for many years and I've had a cast once, like, over a decade ago, when we were all still on LJ! That's where I found all those icons. Other than that, Miwako has ALWAYS been a lone canon warrior. Returning to rp as an adult and bringing her to life in a new light, I'd be over the moon even if it's just Miwako and George forever. But despite being unpopular, ParaKiss is well-loved, I feel, so I think we'll quickly tempt people in with our beautiful icons, stellar writing skills, and passion for fashion rofl...... ;v

i am even more stoked to reread the manga now!! it really is just so perfectly executed. Yazawa Ai is a genius.
can i ask, have you read/watched Gokinjo Monogatari? it's not so relevant to George as it is to Miwako obvs but just curious!!

And dude yes George's familiar beautiful face will be more than welcome IC, a sight for sore eyes indeed. Miwako takes backseat to Zuko cuz Zuko's coming with CRAU from Prismatica that closed last year (that's how Avalon came to be, actually, borne from the Prisma Exodus lol), so he like already had all his friends from home and CR from Prisma and he's super famous ooc, everyone loves the zucchini, so his CR is just like poppin all the goddamn time and he's a big ol drama queen who eats up all my emotional writerly spoons rofl, so poor Miwako has had to sit in the backseat with a far more stagnant inbox... so while she's got some pretty good CR here (l m a o, she has like no girl friends minus Alice, all her CR is with handsome men who are hosts, idols, actors, musicians, etc, and then like two fucking famous samurai friends rofl, like she's dreaming of the day she can tell Arashi she's best buddies with Oda Nobunaga and they bonded over konpeito, he won't believe her rofl!!!) she's not as active as Zuko and I wanna change that. She's canonically shown in the special epilogue chapter of Gokinjo Monogatari to be not great at making friends and historically bullied for being an oddball, so I'm kinda leaning into that as an explanation for her relative solitude, paired with her loneliness being alone for really the first time in her life... She's really struggling with being spirited away and living alone and being single and lonesome. She just works and sews and works some more. She has two different jobs as a shopkeeper at clothing stores, plus helping an old NPC tailor who's given her access to his equipment in exchange as needed, so that she can save up money for buying fabrics (and clothes for herself). She's rented her own atelier space finally, having only recently saved up enough money for it (tryna be realistic too, right, not just excusing my poor activity lol), so she's busy decking that out, beautiful decorations. But like... she really is alone a lot. That's the hardest part for her. So lately I've also written that she's started drinking alone more and has been regularly going to a karaoke bar her idol friend owns as a solo cathartic musical therapy. Now that she's taken Alice as a ward, though, she's gonna have to get her act together and stop drunk crying herself to sleep alone in her bedroom cuddling her unwilling familiar lol. poor miwa.

It'll be so exciting and mind-blowing for her that she'll be able to teach George about sewing...! She knows how to use magic well with it now and can teach him tricks to make garments self-fitting etc! and being creative with other people is more inspiring anyway too...!! so even if George puts her to work on his stuff, it'll inspire her for her own stuff even more. When Hamada-sensei said that Miwako's unoriginal and her designs just naturally look like copycats of Mikako's because she idolizes her too much and her style has been saturated in Happy Berry all her life, I took that ball and fucking ran with it, rofl, so rn basically most of the designs I've collected for her portfolio examples are just minor outfits seen in Gokinjo Monogatari LOL... pulled straight from it, shamelessly! I'm tryna find a good code I like so I can have a gallery post in her journal of her creations. I figure next I'll... gank clothing from NANA, too, lol. Miwako's easy. :| George's designs will put you to task as a writer, too, ahaha~ everyone works for him, even ooc!

def feel free to hmu on plurk with any passing thoughts, ideas, questions, as you mentally prep for this monstrous man haha... happy to answer any questions about lore and game mechanics too and if i don't know the answer, i'm fairly close with a couple of the mods and one of the original creators of the game, so i can always pass info along too if you're not comfortable asking them yourself! But always eager to plot privately and discuss CR ooc hehehe i feel like half of zuko's relationship with azula has happened behind the scenes on plurk, rofl. also glad to make a hidden post in miwako's journal for voice testing with george before the next TDM, if you'd like~ and if we end up loving what happens in it and hate to part with it even if it's not game canon for AC purposes, we can still handwave it actually happened behind the scenes~ I'm v flexible with handwaving. And just! Flexible in general! happy to help~! ☆
