August 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. |
FIND CROSSCANON
The Umbrella Academy @Reparacija
[who I play]: Yelena Belova from the MCU, Allison Argent from Teen Wolf
[wanted]: Characters from The Umbrella Academy! I’m putting a special emphasis on the original Hargreeves siblings except for Diego and Klaus who are in-game and Ben who is apping this round, but I’d like to see anyone. Is there anyone out there who plays Grace? :D
[why]: Yelena is romantically involved with Diego in game and has now read Viktor’s book. She’d like to meet and interact with his family. It could be pretty interesting interacting with Sparrows, too, along with other characters like the Handler.
[game info]: In Reparacija, your character is sent to a prison on an alien world for what they are told are crimes against their world. This can mean destroying the universe or not wearing an ugly Christmas sweater to an ugly Christmas sweater party. Once there, they are given a sentence of “kinks” they must perform to free themselves. If you choose a light sentence for your character, these kinks can be as innocent as hugging and holding hands. AC is check-in, but there is an option to turn in a small amount of AC if you want a bonus. TDM’s always open around the 1st of the month and remain taggable all month long. Reserves open on the 5th and close on the 10th. Applications open on the 10th and close on the 15th, so you can still squeeze in and enjoy the super dark August event when it’s posted.
THE OWL HOUSE - looking for - ATLA
[who I play]: Hunter / The Owl House
[wanted]: Zuko / Avatar: The Last Airbender
[why]: For the canon unfamiliar Hunter is basically a Zuko for this generation of kids, a teenager who was serving a shitty parent in an even shittier empire. He has, however, realized the error of his ways and joined the protagonists in trying to do good.
I absolutely would love for Hunter to get a chance to hang out with another face-scarred bad but sad boy with the world's worst parent. They'd have a lot in common, are both trying to reform and make good, can both be kind of stiff and socially awkward (in a funny way), and would probably become really good mutually supportive friends, but also occasionally fight like cats in a bag.
[game info]: It's a pretty rad superhero game! Info listed here. (I don't want to spam in two places.) It's invite-only but everyone gets 1 invite a month to give away.
UNDEAD CHARACTERS/ZOMBIE HUNTERS @ JIGOKUCHO
[who I play]: gara ukai
[wanted]: any undead, really, as well as survivors in zombie situations!
[why]: gara here is a handead which means he's half-dead. while he was born a handead, much of the japanese population is brainwashed and called alivers; only handead and their bites or dead injections can undo their brainwashing and turn them handead, and undothat brainwashing.
i know, it's a weird premise for a weird canon. but here i am. i'd be hype to explore gara's humanity versus his half-deadness + that of others. in jgk he's learning more that bonds with people matter and i want other undead types to do that with. zombie hunters would also just be fun!
[game info]: jigokucho is a medium-paced youkai-meets-yakuza game. there are often horror elements, but mostly it's crime and character drama; characters are sorted into one of four factions (gara here is of the sutoku alliance!), so there's an added possible point of camaraderie or contention between characters.
the game's ad is here this month.
it's fun! c'mon and join us. DM/comment here if you'd like to know more or whatever
ISO The Sandman for Reparacija
[who I play]: Nadine Cross/The Stand
[wanted]: Dream of the Endless, especially, but generally interested in all of The Sandman fandom.
[why]: I think that Morpheus could have interesting CR with Nadine because he can enter dreams and the last "person" who could do that with Nadine isn't at the prison. She would be either greatly intrigued or highly suspicious. I also think that, being the way she is, she'd have some interesting CR with Lucifer and/or the Corinthian.
[game info]: Reparacija is a prison colony on an alien world where people are sent for even the most minor of crimes. We already have gods imprisoned in Reparacija and they can't escape. For your sentence, you are given a sentence of "kinks" mostly chosen by the player but some chosen according to your app. If you don't want smut for your character, you can select a light sentence and get "kinks" like hand-holding and flirting only. AC is check-in. It's a very laid back game. The August TDM is still open so please comment here if you intend to put a character on there - I will tag you! There is a new TDM every month. Reserves open on the 5th of every month at 9PM EST and close on the 10th when Apps open. Apps close on the 15th at 9PM EST.
