April EMP Meme

[enablemeplz]

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. 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.

I don't actually know anything about Critical Role beyond the demonic possession/redemption plotline, but I enjoyed their thread together a lot.

I also play mostly nonbinary characters, so it looks like no shipping threads (?), but feel free to tag Bill anywhere you like.

[thebadnews]

I enjoyed their thread as well! I don't know all that much about Gravity Falls myself, but it's always fun to learn more about all of that over the course of tagging.

I'm open to nb characters for shipping! I'm mostly just awful with f/f for the few female characters I play, I'll have to make this distinction clearer in the future. But I'll definitely tag Bill when I see them pop up.

[tetrahedonist]

GF's kinda hard to categorize, for me, but I really love its potential. IMO the creator's jokes on Reddit have more plot intrigue than ended up getting written into the show 😂

Oh okay, that makes sense!

[sealfourth]

Here to express interest in your Dragon Age/Witcher peeps, and I happen to have a Legands!Anakin Solo if you wanted a little dad/son shenanigans? My heart, it breaks.

I have a Cousland Warden that I can throw into the world of Witcher, as well as a male mage Hawke with sarcasm problems, several variants of Trevelyan (pick one or three, lol), and am basically here for the fun times! I'm definitely down with discussing all the things; lmk some thoughts. c:

[thebadnews]

Hello! Oh man, Anakin Solo is a blast from the past! I used to write Tenel Ka many moons ago.

I am always down for Hawke & Trevelyan shenanigans. Is there anyone in particular out of the ones I've listed that you would be most into writing against? Heck, technically Hawke and Trevelyan do interact so I would be okay with writing either a Trevelyan or a Hawke against the other.

[battlemaged]

Poor Tenel, bless her. I swear I have no idea what she ever saw in Jacen Solo, God. Anyways, my Anakin is namedforhim, and basically a whatif/au where his story doesn't end at just barely in his teens, the poor boy. Totally willing to trot him out for fam weirdness/Jedi shenanigans, whatever c:

And this is my mage Hawke, overburdened with too many grey hairs for his liking and a fountain of never ending sarcasm. I can totally write him with Trev, any and all; and am totally up for him sticking around after the Fade incident and getting into trouble with Varric, etc. Also good with shippy/smutty things either way - romance is wild in DA, lmao!

[thebadnews]

ooooh i like this hawke! i have a knight enchanter trevelyan (who definitely took all the casual/sarcastic dialogue choices) i can toss at him. let me see if i can make a journal for her, as well as do a little write up to make sure she vibes with you. we could probably start just before here lies the abyss, so that trevelyan & hawke have a chance to bond before the dreaded "warden or hawke" choice comes into play :") (if that's alright with you, of course!!)

when it comes to shipping, i tend to just let it all happen naturally, but it's definitely a possibility depending on the chemistry they end up having!

[battlemaged]

Sounds good! Apologies for the late reply; we've had thunderstorms and sinus infections galore. But yeah, let's give it a go!

[invintive]

It has been a hot minute since I've played Dorian here, but I would love to bounce him off of Cullen or m!Hawke. Shippy, smutty, or gen would all be a-OK for me.

[thebadnews]

I have such a soft spot for Dorian/Cullen - I would love to play Cullen against him! I don't have a journal for him yet, so let me go ahead and make one, but if you want to in the meantime, you can shoot me a PM with any ideas you might have for specific stuff to write out!

[fhawkeit]

ja hallo, how would you feel about isabela & hawke trying to become the best sea men (seamen everywhere)
but also alternative to that i also have trevelyan (troubleyan) in the f version if you'd be interested in arranging anything with either hawke or cullen
and i am shipper trash but mostly i just want to shake loose the cobwebs on the dragon age muses through writing side-quests and reshaping of Plot and aus so let me know if you're interested

[thebadnews]

oh man oh man isabela & hawke are an absolute weakness of mine, and so is hawke & trevelyan apparently??
hello yes i am also shipper trash, so i would definitely be interested in either. i would need to make journals regardless for isabela or hawke so if you have a preference between them, let me know and i'll go whip a journal right up

[fhawkeit]

I am super flexible my pal I will write whichever you want!! (that's my way of diplomatically not saying I WANT IT ALL)

but for real, hawke/isabela is a big ship for me i love them, but if f/f is not your jam, we can try out some form of da:i au where hawke is the inquisitor & trevels is a companion maybe? or where hawke hangs around the inquisition a while longer? or where we figure out wtf happens in weisshaupt bc trevelyan takes a detour sidequest there?? (who cares about tresspasser timeskip when there's tasty, tasty codas to write?)

[thebadnews]

i do kind of like the idea of hawke sticking around the inquisition a while longer (someone needs to keep varric in line after all, for cassandra's sanity) so maybe we can start with that and just add in our own silly sidequests as we go? let me see if i can nab a journal for my trevelyan and we can take it from there~

[fhawkeit]

yesss - feel free to PM me on this journal when you're ready :D
also if you are ever interested in a little xover with your critical role buddies let me know, i love cr and crossovers

[advictorium]

I have a Leliana to toss at any of the Dragon Age people if you're interested! I'm good with shipping and smut, though I tend to lean more toward F/F for her.
