February 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.

Honestly, I'm open to pretty much anything! I think I've always loved how confident he is in comparison to her own doubts and quiet nature and then how well they played off each other in the Christmas show they did, so I think the dynamic I love will end up showing up in any scenario and I'd be content with just that.

My arms are open for ideas!
mechanicist: (Default)

[personal profile] mechanicist 2022-02-14 12:52 am (UTC)(link)
Hmmmm the only other idea that comes to my mind is like...saki or perhaps even nene/emu/touya? is dating someone and tsukasa wants to make sure everything is Fine. It’d be weird to spy on them, but do you know what wouldn’t be weird?? A double date. Cue him asking Rui to be his partner in crime without immediately realizing just how long he’d have to keep up this charade.

I’d be up for either plans though!

[personal profile] trouped 2022-02-14 01:04 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah I loved the Christmas event for them too. And in that vein, the idea that’s been knocking around my head the longest is the obvious route of them playing romantic leads. The reason could be anything, like a school event or idk Phoenix Wonderland Valentines/White Day contest? Either way I think it’s a way to have them spend a lot of charged time together.

[personal profile] unamusical 2022-02-14 01:12 am (UTC)(link)
Oh a Valentines contest would be super cute! I'm totally down to have them have to play romantic leads and all the cuteness and tension that would come with that.

Ichika(?) experiencing the most surreal time of her life as her girlfriends' weird overbearing brother shows up with a somehow even weirder guy in tow like HELLO FELLOW LOVEBIRDS...

I think the pros of each scenario are like...

Promo: set end-date for emotional turmoil, less necessity for other named characters to be involved

Saki's Lovestory: FULL IMMERSION, they gotta keep up the charade full time and it's gotta be believable!!

I think I tend towards the show-promo idea by a small margin because I like the thought of grandiose stage-like gestures simmering down to quiet genuine expressions of affection? BUT EITHER WORKS, worried brother mode is also very very cute...

I can't offer any castmates, but I'd love to see some Trek muses at [community profile] polymythos, which is a very chill game. AC is basically check in. Apps are always open now. As far as I know, it's sex friendly. You can kind of choose your own adventure there, make it as dramatic or as silly as you want to.

There's a TDM here, and if you want to get an idea of game play, check out the log comm [community profile] polylogs. That's much more active than the network comm.

Hey! The Marvel cast over at Duplicity was just talking about how much we'd love a Sam. The TDM is up and reserves are open over here, though they aren't necessary for apps, which open on the 16th!

Feel free to PM me for any specific questions! We have Natasha, Clint, Steve, Wanda, Yelena, Peggy, Bucky, Kate Bishop, Quentin Beck, Peter Parker, Stephen Strange... Sam would be well loved!

Alright \o/
If you don’t have any preferences in regards to the plot of the show etc did you want to toss up a starter or should I?
mechanicist: (Default)

[personal profile] mechanicist 2022-02-14 02:22 am (UTC)(link)
As nice as Saki being the only one sitting there innocently thinking “I’m glad everyone’s getting along :)” would be, you do make a good point about the reliance on side characters possibly being annoying there.

I’m trying to think up a way to merge the two because the vigilance/full immersion/always thinking about what to do to prove you’re dating this person leading into constant thoughts about what it would be like to actually date is always so fun.

Mayyyybe the show promo thing leads everyone to believe they are dating somehow?? The charade must continue because otherwise...idk Saki Would Be Disappointed???
wonderxboy: (Default)

[personal profile] wonderxboy 2022-02-14 02:30 am (UTC)(link)
THAT'S GENIUS! Saki hears through the grapevine first because Tsukasa neglected to mention it to her so he gets a whole super sparkly-eyed congrats on the boyfriend reception at home and it's like... welp. NOW HE'S STUCK LIKE THIS.

All Souls / A Discovery of Witches - canon and cross-canon welcome

[personal profile] sothebys 2022-02-14 02:37 am (UTC)(link)
I am offering...
Phoebe Taylor, Diana Bishop or both!

Preferences...
Gen: I would love to play them against just about anyone! Canonmates are an obvious yes. I have soft spots for characters that could fit easily into their lives, though, if we're not talking canonmates. Perhaps vampires, artists or art thieves for Phoebe; scholars, witches or, again, vampires for Diana. I'm flexible, though. If you have an idea, pitch it.

Shipping: Canon, both of these ladies have someone depending on the point they come from. I'd love to find a Marcus for Phoebe or a Matthew for Diana. I'm also open to AU's with certain canonmates, but I know there only seem to be a few characters on DW so I won't get my hopes up. Cross-canon would also have to be AU, but I'm open to that, as well. Both of my ladies are open for M/F relationships, but if by some SLIM chance a Miriam ever finds Phoebe I'd be willing to explore that.

Other: I'm always willing to do memes if you are. Let me know! Comment here!

Want to join us at Deer Country? It's a horror game and it's pretty heavy plot if you want to lean that way, plus there's usually some lighter prompts in months if you're a little burnt out on eternally torturing your character. We've got a cast of eight, mostly from the prequel era, but also a Luke and Ezra as well. Maul's been there the longest, coming up on two years given his time in Deerington, since DC is a sequel game to that one, and basically seen the cast grow during his time there. He's definitely one of the most active characters in the game and has a definite reputation among the residents there.

Also personal bonus that will be relevant to Bo-Katan: I requested Maul receive the Darksaber as a reward years ago before season 2 revealed just how important it was and Maul still has it!

Ha! Thanks. I love Lunar and recently stumbled upon my physical copies and it just sparked my love all over again. I'm definitely keeping an eye out for a place for her!

Link Click - Canon, crosscanon, ocs all welcome

[personal profile] snapdive 2022-02-14 02:50 am (UTC)(link)
Offering

- Cheng Xiaoshi


Seeking

- Canon: Lu Guang for shipping/time travel/action/shenanigans, Qiao Ling for found family/friendship/shenanigans.
- Crosscanon: Down for shipping, gen, found family, AUs, and a plethora of other scenarios. Cheng Xiaoshi has the ability to travel through time using photographs, so characters with abilities that could mesh with his in interesting ways could be fun! His powers also lend themselves well to time travel fix-its, time travel break-its, and other neato AUs.
- I'm down for a variety of tones, from angst to fluff, and am open to PSLs, memes, or some combination of the two. I eventually want to app him somewhere but that's neither here nor there.

Excellent! Sounds like a plan then. Did you want to toss up a starter or should I?

I'm definitely due for a replay someday, my copies are gathering dust somewhere.

I hope you find a game!! I can't offer any castmates, but I'm at [community profile] incensed right now and I'm enjoying it quite a bit, if you're looking for suggestions to check out.

No More Heroes

[personal profile] superheroine 2022-02-14 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
Bad Girl - No More Heroes
Sylvia Christel - No More Heroes

Haven't written either since 2007-2008 but am looking to get back into the saddle with a PSL or two. I'm up to date on canon but haven't really dug into the meat of NMH3's story so I'm still getting my sea legs there too. Don't have icons set up yet either. I'm a whole-ass mess but my heart is pure.

For Sylvia, I'd like to dig into her marriage with Travis + how she is as a mother, the shift from full-time grifter to corporate, and how "socially acceptable" her bloodlust presents compared to Travis's.

For Bad Girl, I'd like to play with how she's changed, who she is, her relationship with her father and what's up with that sadism thing lately. I've got a far less clear picture of what I'm looking for with Bad Girl but I loved writing her back in the day so who knows!

Happy with gen or shipping or just smut. Comment here or PM this journal!

I can take a look! The game shopping is all very tentative right now!

Would you say it's the kind of game where if you have a slow week or two you'd be out of the loop?

YOU!



I mean hi.

Actually I know the Ezra that plays there and they’ve told me about the game. It’s been something I’ve been thinking about so I appreciate you reaching out! But that is a nice juicy tidbit about Maul! A sure way for Bo to turn violent, seeing him there with the darksaber!

I might at least try out your TDM.
