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.

MCU

offering:

Michelle "MJ" Jones-Watson | MCU

seeking: (highlight to see specific NWH spoilers)

- College shenaigans! I'd love to play out her and Ned living together in Boston, the way they'd planned to with Peter, only for the pair of them to realize that something's missing and start looking hard at the weird gaps in their memories. Age-appropriate MCUs or other characters are definitely loved for this as well.

- Multiversal shenanigans! I'd love for her to interact with alternate versions of people she knows, or with people who know an alternate version of her/her friends. Whether they get dragged into her universe or she gets dragged into theirs, I'm down. Even getting the TVA involved would be a lot of fun! I think it would be especially fun if one of the other Peters finds their way back to her post-NWH and are very confused as to why she has no idea who they are or why they keep asking about that Peter Parker guy who sometimes visits her at the coffee shop. This would also be a great way to get some cross-canon interaction in, which I absolutely love.

- Magical shenanigans! Specifically for Dr. Strange or Wong (or Wanda or other magically-inclined characters?). She could start to wonder if maybe the weird gaps in her memory might be the result of magic, so she somehow gets in touch with Strange or whoever to try and get to the bottom of it. Her memories (and subsequently theirs) can be restored, or else shit can hit the fan because when do magic and curious teenagers ever work out well?

- Bystander shenanigans! A lot of craziness goes on in NYC, and really? It's not as sprawling of a place as you'd think it is. It'd be fun if she ended up in the thick of the events of Hawkeye, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, or other event (MCU or otherwise) and needed rescuing or else unexpectedly rescues a hero.

- Dealing with the aftermath of NWH... shenanigans. I'd love for her to eventually figure out (again) that Peter is Spider-Man, but she either doesn't realize that she'd known this before or else she assumes that her weird memory gaps were directly caused by Peter to keep people from discovering his secret identity. Whether he tells her the whole truth or they end up developing a romantic relationship again is something we can play around with.

- All the shenanigans! I default to post-NWH and make her 18+, but can also play her from an earlier canonpoint or AU the end of NWH to make things easier. I play everything from the fluffiest fluff to the grittiest action to the most mind-numbing horror. I'm good with most ships, don't mind playing smut, and am 1000% down for platonic stuff too. While I love Peter and would never say no to a Ned, I also love cross-canon and multiversal things, and am more than happy to work out a way to get our characters together! So feel free to leave a comment here or send me a PM and we can hash out a thing!

Okay so I know we have them chatting in that one bakerstreet thread, and I am still technically kinda voicetesting him, but I'm just here to say that I am absolutely 100% down to write something outside of that. There are a couple really amazing post-nwh fics that I've read recently that take place either during or after college that I think could be great as a basis for some lines. One of those pretty heavily involves Ned. I would also be into plotting up something else!

Listen, we are all perpetually voicetesting, and I'm really enjoying our thread so far! I'm definitely good with hashing out something between Peter and MJ either during or after college, and I can probably NPC Ned as needed unless you'd rather. I have an open post on her journal, but feel free to shoot me a PM so we can hash out specifics and be on the same page!
