enablemeplz | January EMP Meme

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.

[game's current cast]: Uchiha Sasuke and Haruno Sakura; both canon points are post-Final Battle, around the Sakura Hiden novel.
[who I play]: Sasuke
[wanted]: UZUMAKI NARUTO, Hatake Kakashi, Tsunade, Uchiha Itachi, literally... anyone honestly.
[game info]: Premise post. Deer Country is the sequel game to

deerington; it's a game that explores various genres of horror, but is particularly influenced by Lovecraftian horror and the video game Bloodborne. New comers are trying to form a new life after finding out they've been given a new life. It's hard to completely ignore the horror themes of the game, but there are plenty of things to do outside of the events, such as opening businesses, researching the world they've found themselves in, and helping out other Sleepers who are trying to fight off the corruption that runs through the world and causes people to turn into monsters if left unchecked. Blood powers can be manifested in any character and canon powers don't need to be nerfed. AC is fairly light and monthly events make it really easy to meet. Players are super open to plotting and there are a lot of older fandoms in the game which makes losers from a twenty year old ninja series feel right at home.

'Sup, I got a couple of questions because horror is my jam and I'm back in ninja hell. ~~Though it might be a while before I get things in order, haaaaah.~~

With the events in the game and such, from a player perspective, do they tend to be more "hey, here's every detail ever" or more of just "here's the thing going on, do the thing, ask questions if need be"? I ask mostly because one of the games I used to be in a while ago liked to... put every detail under the sun into events and became a bit overwhelming.

There are definitely details, but usually it's more like each one sets up the scene and then tries to pre-emptively answer questions rather than being a bunch of unnecessary prose. For example, this month there's a giant snake-like creature that's attacking the town, and it gives details about what the snake's made of (it's magical/not just a giant snake and is made of rock or something), it's attack patterns, how it kills, and the ways you're most likely to be able to deal it some damage. There's also a prompt that has a party-scenario which looks long because it includes the invitation people get to the party, and then talks about the decorations, and vaguely describes the things you can do at the party (places for snacks, a talent show, a compulsive honesty/sharing lounging area...). With the two prompts being in the same event, it can look lengthy and overwhelming, but I usually find it's pretty easy to follow. The events also usually go up about 3 or 4 days ahead of time, which gives time to really digest the information that's given, and makes it a little easier to plot with others.

I hope that helps!

That really does, thank you so much! I always get a little worried with games like this and how much info is shoved at people all at once. But this seems like the right amount of information instead of just... an infodump, if that makes any sense what-so-ever.

It definitely does! You can also take a look at the event tag to glance at previous events if you want to see the level of detail for yourself. I know what might seem like just the right amount of detail for one person can be way too much for someone else.

Also welcome back to ninja hell, it missed u

Just scanning over it, it looks perfect for the type of information I like given without a lot of extra fluff.

Joke's on you, I've been back in ninja hell for half a year now over at VoidTrecker, lmfao. Though not with this nerd.
