October 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. |

[fandom]: Murdoch Mysteries
[rp you're offering for / rp type you'd wanna play in]: I’m open to just about anything really games and psls both.
[preferences]:
- Back tag friendly (I don’t like having to just end something abruptly at the end of the month)
- I like a game where characters are encouraged to grow and deal with their issues
- Characters being encouraged to work together/open businesses are neat
- Plot settings where characters are encouraged to investigate are great
- If it’s horror I like the spookier side of horror
- SoL is also okay
- Castmates are nice but not necessary (lol I’m realistic, there aren’t many out there from his canon)
- I really like being able to plot with fellow players and think about future cr/threads
So, leaving this anon, but...

If you haven't checked it before, its a survival type space adventure where everyone spends most of their time trying to rebuild an abandoned planet, and sometimes have to go off world to meet other aliens, and sometimes are just psychologically tortured from the comfort of their makeshift home.
There's a horror-type event coming up in a week! If you want a bit of a horror fix, for the spooky season.
Let me know if I can tempt you in other ways!
(just poking head in)

The short of it is the game is a horror/mystery game that centers on characters dealing with supernatural threats and occurrences after being pulled into an alternate version of Earth (the game takes place in Gloucester, Massachusetts). It hits a lot of your preferences, like characters encouraged to work together in the plot, spooky horror, and are encouraged to conduct investigations during events and outside of them too. Our game is fairly small (we're at 39 players) and is backtag friendly!
Apps are open right now (close on the 12th) but if that's too soon we'll have another app cycle in November! If you have any questions let me know, or you can check the game FAQ and pose specific ones to the mods.

I was definitely intrigued with this game, but I'm probably going to have to pass with the permanent-death mechanic I saw in the FAQ. I should have put that in my preferences that I don't really like those in games, but I kinda forgot it was a thing. So that's my bad.
I enjoyed tagging you on TFLN a lot, though! I work on Friday nights now so I don't get to do it really unless people provide links directly to their thing, or if it goes up early enough that I can pop a post up. But if I ever get a Friday night off again, I'd definitely love to tag you again ♥!
