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.

seeking
scott | let me let scott dad your characters! he wants a buddy to watch the real housewives of new asgard with him, tell bad corny jokes to, and hold the flashlight as he works on your car. he will not be out-dad by clint or strange!! i only ship with hope so all other interactions will be platonic. are you ready for a father figure? hi, ready for a father figure. i'm dad.
nancy | a long shot but her canonmates (george, bess, ned, dad, hardy boys). but most likely, i'll be playing crosscanon so i'm looking for anyone who like to stick their noses where it shouldn't be, whether they be fellow sleuths or superheroes. i think pairing nancy drew with spider-man would be great. open to shipping with those around her age, but it'd be slowburn. i prefer to keep her in the mid-1960s so no modern aus unfortunately. i do have an account from the nancy drew files series (set in late 80s/90s) but i haven't found a pb or gone through that series yet so. original series nancy is all i can offer right now
notes
- open to crosscanon and ocs
- up for psls or bakerstreet memes
- contact me here or through pm. open to giving out social medias after some discussion

My journal is a bit shit, since I'm working on it in the middle of the night in a hotel-- but if you want someone to be a platonic homie who needs help learning basic shit I've got this guy. Though he technically does and doesn't need help, I think forming a friendship that was his own, only, would be really nice and good growth for him.

So I've made a new journal because I hated the name. I've been gone forever and forgot you couldn't do ALLCAPS garbage.

Better, worse, either is fine so long as it's entertaining. Also yes. CHAOS.

WHO IS THIS PERSON

nah lol scott's idea of making someone worse is introducing them to trashy reality shows and uh idk eating cereal from an old country crock butter container cos all the bowls are dirty. cassie and hope are legit the only two things keeping scott from going complete cave man/frat boy haha

IS JUST SOME GUY OKAY? DONT THINK TOO HARD--

Aww. Scott is a special kind of adorable, I will accept no counterarguments. And I mean, let's be real, having someone around to judge us is what keeps a lot of us on the straight and narrow--

That said, do you have a preference for PSLs, or memes, or what have you?

i'm cool with either psls or memes. if you have an idea right now for a thread, a psl works. but no idea until the right meme pops up and inspires a thread then a meme works too. i'm talking about the dennys meme cos look. a greasy spoon with cheap pancakes and sticky tables is scott's wheelhouse.

if you got an idea, hit me! all i can think of rn is steven waking up with a giant ant on his chest in scott's backyard looool

Memes would probably work, I've not got anything in particular in mind at the moment. Denny's meme seems perfect.

ok well i'll keep an eye out for the denny's meme (i didn't see it on the first page) and for you on it. if not, i'll toplevel on it and you can find me. ok ok if i see the denny's meme, i'll toplevel and message you. IT'S LIKE THE BLIND LEADING THE BLIND HERE WE'LL FIGURE IT OUT

Aye. Yeah. Sounds great to me. And blind is fitting, since I have no idea what the hell is going on ninety percent of the time.

Aaaaaah I loved me some Nancy Drew back in the day!! No canon-mates, sorry.

I do have Alex Ramsay, from The Black Stallion series, set roughly in the nebulous 1940s-thereafter, and he gets himself into crazy jams with his giant black horse? Or if horses and short redheads are not your thing, well, I have a few others here.

Not sure I can offer anything for Scott unless you want some weird crossovers, all my “young” characters on there are…well. Either dead or from Homestuck. XD

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!

[personal profile] clouded_moon 2022-06-16 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
The Black Stallion series is mostly about Alec befriending a wild black stallion and making a racehorse out of him, but there are also shipwrecks, mysteries, murder attempts, plane crashes, Haitian goddesses in the Everglades, aliens (no I'm not kidding), and the apocalypse. It's a wild ride.

SO a little mystery-solving via Nancy Drew may, in fact, constitute as a nice break for Alec. XD He's generally found in New York, but since horse racing is popular around the country, anywhere you'd like to set a mystery is cool. Alec is a helpful sort of young man, it won't take much to have him fall in with Nancy and assist her in whatever, especially if it involves horses in any form.

The other dude I could offer is this guy, Kamizuki Izumo from Naruto, which is sort of a fantasy series but I can AU him in, he's a ninja. So ninja plus super-sleuth could be interesting? He'd be very tempted to flirt with the pretty redhead, tho, and Nancy probably won't take well to that....

ah so it's like the boxcar children where really only the first book is relevant to the title then it goes buckwild in the later books and becomes about singing ghosts and wizards and long lost twins.

nancy's aunt lives in nyc and she lives nearby as well (my theory is that she lives in vermont or new hampshire) so they could meet without needing an explanation. i haven't finished the series yet but i'm willing to bet that there's a mystery involving horses. besides, nancy's sleuthing takes her everywhere.

If I recall (I haven't read them in ages) The Mystery of Shadow Ranch involves horses, something either about a gold mine or a phantom horse or both, but that takes place out west.

Given the horse racing industry manages a great deal of money, prestige, and betting, I'm sure Nancy could be investigating things like....somebody did a bait-and-switch with a horse to be sold (sold a random no-name nag instead of the Pricey Horse it's supposed to be), someone has been sabotaging a stable's horses in or out of racing because grudge/betting debts/unfair shares in ownership-training-syndicate-rights, somebody's favorite horse has been stolen and/or is being held for ransom, somebody is mysteriously making a mint off betting (inside sources, sabotage, fraudulent betting)....

Alex, being a jockey as well as a stable owner, would certainly be able to facilitate her being able to get into private areas or speak with people who might otherwise brush her off (race officials, other owners or jockeys).

Any of that sound interesting at all? I do love mysteries but I'm not very good at plotting them out....
