June EMP Meme
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. |
SKULDUGGERY PLEASANT @ COME SAIL AWAY
[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...
