December EMP Meme

[enablemeplz]

ENABLEMEPLZ meme goes up on the last 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. ➤ ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding (no font size > size 4 or 3 "big" tags, no banners, no blinking text, no obnoxious tables, no sparklies, no 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 frozen and/or deleted. FOR CHARACTER ADS: ➤ Put up an ad about the characters you are offering. For PSL/1-on-1 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/1-on-1 section, where you post the 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. ➤ 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. Try not to recommend the same game to every single ad, either. MOD CONTACT: If there's trouble, tell us HERE, please! RESOURCES: enablemeplz - The plurk for Enable Me Plz.

[rp you're offering for / rp type you'd wanna play in]: Anything newbie friendly. I'm willing to do a lot of reading and I've browsed some to get a feel but I'm coming over from tumblr and there's a good bit of differences to weed through.
[preferences]: TDM a bonus but not mandatory, and as a disclaimer I don't use Plurk and most likely won't get one anytime soon so most if not all of my plotting will either be done on Discord, through PMs or any plotting posts games have. As well, if I'll be apping into any casts I'd like to make sure it's cool with all players in said cast so I don't step on any toes. While casts are a plus, I'm completely fine with playing them solo. Anything else you need to know, just ask! I also don't currently have any accounts set up for any of them but that shouldn't be too difficult.

[character offered]: Qrow Branwen
[fandom]: RWBY
[canon point]: Volume 3 Episode 12 "End of the Beginning" (Flexible)

[character offered]: Yumi
[fandom]: Senran Kagura
[canon point]: Post-Shinovi Versus (Until Estival Versus comes to PC)

[character offered]: Ahri
[fandom]: League of Legends
[canon point]: Directly after defending the Ionian village in her updated lore. I'll be incorporating bits and pieces of her old lore into the characterization and background as well, if that's allowed.

I don't currently play there, but I was in hadriel for a long while and felt it to be very newbie friendly! Welcome to DWRP, and best of luck! c:

Thanks! I'll give it a look over. 'ppreciate it.

QROOOOOOWWWWW!!! 8D

So I play Yang over at cosmographia and she would be super stoked to see her uncle! She's pre-V3 (but with a pending canon update) so uh...yeah! XD

Anyway, Cosmographia is a game where your character is brought from their world to the town of Waverly Bay and then changed into a magical Gem. It's loosely based on the canon of Steven Universe but familiarity with that canon isn't necessary beyond a couple of basics of how Gems work. If you want you can check out the FAQ to read up on what that entails, and I'm also happy to answer questions.

The game itself is very new player friendly! The play-style is slice-of-life with an over-arching plot, a slow to medium-pace, and bi-monthly events with player plots encouraged! The activity check is very easy and offers a lot of options for completion. There is some initial power/item loss for new characters but they can be regained through event participation. And since you mentioned it, we actually have a couple of players in-game who don't use Plurk so not having one shouldn't be too much of a problem. :)

The current Test Drive Meme can be found here if you want to try out the setting!

I'm pretty dang familiar with Steven Universe. I'll give it a look over and get to putting together a Qrow account to toss onto the TDM so I can try to get a feel for things.

Aaaah, awesome! I'll be sure to keep an eye out so I can hit up any top-levels.

don't really have a game to pitch to you, but i just wanna say welcome to dwrp! c: wish you luck in finding a game.

Welcome to DreamWidth!

We don't have any castmates to offer you, but if you like Dragon Age (or just high fantasy settings in general), Fade Rift is a lot of fun, and has hosted a few folks who were new to DW. Most plotting is done in the OOC comm, but we also have an active Discord chat for stuff like chatting, dice rolls, etc.

Characters can be AU'd in to the DA setting, or arrive from their own worlds. It's fairly small and slow-to-medium paced, and most people enjoy backtagging. There are opportunities every month for exploration and action, but characters can also hang around and do SOL stuff as well. There's a log community, and a network-style community, which gives it some fun flexibility.

We've got a TDM up here, and apps are open this month from the 6th to the 12th. Best of luck finding a game!

Please refrain from spamming entries with the same game without personalizing the ad. Due to repeat spamming, I'll be screening comments promoting Tu Shanshu that appear copy pasted without regard to what's in the character ad.
