June 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.

Mild nudity will be FTB requested as it can be a trigger for many people (me among them, I openly and honestly admit.)

These are the kinds of things you will probably need to walk back. It's one thing to ask people to do content warnings if there's a player in the game who is triggered by this; Deerington had/has a content warning list for that reason. It's another thing entirely to expect characters to never be in a state of undress (regardless of context?) in a text based medium.

SKULDUGGERY PLEASANT @ COME SAIL AWAY

[personal profile] light_mischief 2022-06-14 02:13 am (UTC)(link)
[game]: [community profile] come_sailaway
[fandom]: Skulduggery Pleasant
[game's current cast]: It's just him, that guy!
[who I play]: It's just me, this gal!
[wanted]: IF YOU CLICKED ON THE AD, I PROBABLY WANT TO PLAY WITH YOU. While I would love any castmates from Phase 1 (books 1-9 - i almost completely ignore phase 2), there are a few who I think would be especially great fits! Valkyrie Cain would be an obvious choice; TBH she could use a vacation, and Skulduggery has hyped her up to several friends, giving her some solid in-roads for CR. China Sorrows would absolutely kill it here; the meta-plot involves sigil magic, for a start, and the game has lots of neutral/morally-gray characters to "bond" with. Ghastly Bespoke would have to deal with the only clothes available being Tommy Bahama, but I think he'd get along with a lot of the ship's residents. Tanith Low would probably just have a chill ass vacation, and you know what, she deserves it. Some personal favorites I would scream to see include: his oft-mentioned arch-nemesis Nefarian Serpine, the occasionally mocked killer supreme Vaurien Scapegrace, and of course the blink-and-you-miss-him bro Fletcher Renn.

[game info]: Come Sail Away is a pan-fandom horror-style jamjar where characters find themselves trapped on a mysterious ship floating in an eternal sea, captained by an equally mysterious and malicious being hoping to find his way to godhood. We're an active community who loves to back-tag and we stride the razor-thin margin between "irreverent comedy" and "trauma-induced drama." If you want more about the game itself, see here. As for what's been going on with Skulduggery...

Skulduggery has found himself heavily invested in the meta-plot. (If you see anyone talk about "cranial void fisting," that would be him.) His current goal is to either convince the captain to stop being a total dick, or find a way for the passengers to take over the ship without everyone getting murdered. Usual good guy stuff. He's also been building a LOT of random CR, so any castmates who join will find it easier to make friends! An added benefit: absolutely NOBODY KNOWS THE CANON BABY!!! nobody can tell us we're doing it wrong except each other, and I won't tell if you don't!!! ;)

THE IMPORTANT THING IS: At the end of the current event, Skulduggery will be experiencing a canon jump to the end of book 4. That means he's going to be acting a little silly, a little spooky, and will be even MORE desperate to see his friends again. Or anyone he knows, really. We might even be able to manage not killing Serpine on the TDM, should you so choose...

Hit me up on plurk ([plurk.com profile] bentsage) if you want some bespoke enabling :) There's a brand new TDM here, and the SECOND you post to it I will be there with my canon-jumped skeleton boy!!! He will be so excited to see his hallucinations are manifesting here, too!!

i LOVE shenanigans!!!!

hi!
when i saw you on tfln i was like. fuck it lets GO lets go bother his poor dude who definitely does NOT need another handful. (but will get one anyway) and it ended up really funny so... no regrets.

thankfully fantasy settings are super easy to blend together, and dunmesh is so prime for shenanigans that i couldn't help it. tbh being canonblind to her is fine you just need to know: shes fey (and all that implies. ie. mischievous. liar. weird.) and shes a druid, but has ONE whole level in rogue. :D practically an expert, really. so theres possibility of her just going:

watch this, chilchuck. (does some rogue thing and fucks it up) nailed it.

I didn't have anything specific in mind, but having amnesiac remake Cloud run into Zack and lose his mind trying to figure out why this dude is so familiar and why he keeps getting weird headaches and forgetting things around him could be really interesting. Post-Nibelheim lab stuff also sounds super fun! Honestly, all of that sounds great to me. Any one in particular you've been itching to do?
trapidation: (05)

[personal profile] trapidation 2022-06-14 02:57 am (UTC)(link)
YES it was immensely fun and tbqh chilchuck does not need another handful in his life buuuuut they are the funniest to play him off of... so rip to him...

i'm happy to mash fantasy settings and the basic premise of exploring a dungeon and adventuring is probably generic enough it won't be too complicated? CLEARLY THEY NEED A SECOND ROGUE ANYWAY (or at least someone with part of the skillset!!!)

anyway right now i am super behind on a lot of stuff and slow due to RL but if you're cool with that i'm game to meme or psl

I agree for sure! I like to think they at least know each other ("Miss Clever Clogs"), likely through Leon, and Raihan is a history nerd as well, so they'd get along like a house on fire imo

We could have them set up a lunch date and talk about the newly discovered history of Galar, and maybe reveal that the last part of the tapestries is in a resTAURANT, or explore the Crown Tundra together (he would h a t e it), or if you have an idea, we can go for that!

this clown is now his circus sorry

but no yeah itd be an easy thing to do for sure. but also: do you want THIS one to be your rogue#2. im almost entirely positive she took one in rogue so she can pickpocket better. she can't sneak for BEANS. but he could teach her stuff. she'd probably listen

oh no absolutely! im fairly busy myself just with work and whatnot that i'm not expecting high speed stuff really. the only time i might be kinda speedy is shorter text-based stuff. we could totally find something to throw them in tho >:) any thoughts?

I have seen too many cases in gams where people were asked to warn and did not. So I am not certain that is one that I would be comfortable walking back, but I will give it consideration. Thank you.

[character offered]: Miles 'Tails' Prower
[fandom]: Sonic the Hedgehog (film universe)
[preferences]:
-Suitability for child/non-human characters! Tails is a gadget whiz and he really wants to help out, but he's still a kid.
-My favorite genres are adventure, magic fantasy, and spacey sci-fi. Would prefer to avoid psychological horror.
-The most important thing to me is that he can meaningfully contribute---easiest way would be by building or repairing gadgets and vehicles. But if it's the kind of setting where all characters can learn a new ability, that works too! Somewhere he can do stuff and build his confidence would be awesome.

Thank you!

And I'm happy to as well, let me know if there's anything in particular you'd want :)

As for the musebox, well, my thinking was you could post a few general starters (AU or otherwise), and then a starter for that particular AU - add a little note beneath going "hey, so, I'd really really love to try this..." and see if you get any bites? :)

We've had at least one AU version of Asami from LoK already, so it's not like there's no precedent :)

I'm honestly cool with either scenario, so I feel it's more up to whether or not you want to deal with Cloud having amnesia or Cloud not exactly being in the most functional state cause Zack is gonna Zack either or. Which are you leaning more towards and feel like you would have more material to work with?

👀 omfd you say...

Hi I just got into this fandom and am here for all the Ed/Stede shipping I can get. I also love AUs? Though those two are practically already regency. Dark shipping with happy endings like hanahaki stuff is my jaaaaam. I've also put Ed up on a couple of shipping and texting memes on bakerstreet. lmk if you want to thread something with these two!

the entire circus in the form of one fey lady

and also, no definitely not, he thinks she should stick to her own thing BUT he's willing to teach and probably prefers it to someone making a mess of things. not!! for stealing though!!!

yeah texting stuff has been the easiest way for me to rp lately ;_; as far as memes go, the survival meme is probably apt for adventurers, not sure what other recent postings would be fitting
fauned: (pic#15696586)

[personal profile] fauned 2022-06-14 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
the whoooole circus. listen, would she be a fey creature otherwise?

he'd definitely spot her randomly taking things. usually just.. stuff that catches her eye. not usually money just trinkets and... stuff. so he's free to nag her about it or swat her hand or otherwise. they come in handy sometimes!

naw the adventuring one is BUILT for them! dungeon crawl with a rogue/druid combo and no tanks. what could possibly go wrong right
trapidation: (03)

[personal profile] trapidation 2022-06-14 04:00 am (UTC)(link)
he's like please don't let them all be this bad

yeah, chilchuck definitely seems to stick by an adventurer code of ethics and watches out for everyone's rep so he will be compelled to do something!! like go to make her pay and then haggle the price down anyway... good job everyone

lmao he doesn't even have the offensive capabilities of rogues he's just the traps and locks guy. good luck to them.

Oh, hello! I would love to do something with Barnaby! One idea did occur to me—I read in some supplementary canon material that Yuri talks to his houseplants, and I thought it was amusing that the two of them share a love of their plants. Having them somehow find that out about each other might be fun.

I'm also up for something more actiony. Perhaps there's a disaster of some kind in the city, and Yuri and Barnaby are together in the crisis. Barnaby could be trying to help him, while Yuri tries to avoid using his abilities at all costs.

Or we could even combine the two somehow! But if you have any ideas, I'm very open to various scenarios!

Hmm, let's go with the lab then! I figure it'd be not long after they were first brought there? Maybe the first time Cloud's fully conscious after they heal him and start the mako treatments?

no worries! i know any nancy drew canonmates are a long shot. but running into a guy with a giant black horse sounds exactly like a situation nancy would find herself into. although i am unfamiliar with the black stallion and a lot of your other fandoms, but i'm game for whatever. whichever fandom you're feeling would mesh well with nancy drew works for me!

i heard someone mention pride and prejudice so here i am! hello, i would love to do post-p&p stuff with mary bennet. i used to have a ton of austen/regency-era muses back in the day but, alas, all i have left is victor frankenstein. idk if you'd want to do something with him but they had some great chemistry in john kessel's pride and prometheus. if not, if you want something more lighthearted, i'm more than happy to create an oc for either romance or platonic stuff
