August 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!

hi hi hi. i'm katie and a very normal amount of excited.

so I would love Lila or Ben honestly (with some preference to lila if i'm being honest) at a little game called eastbound. it's a small game with a medium-pace, very adventure forward. we have a five, diego (hi!) and allison. we're all from the end of season 2 currently, though i know me and the allison have talked about updating to different points in season 3 when the oppertunity arises.

[littlemimic]

Hi! I'm Xae and a slightly more then normal amount of excited!!

I have actually been eyeing eastbound for a bit, as I do have a friend in the game already. And I'd lean Lila too, just for the mischief she could get into there. Plus she's a badass lady who will gently (and not so gently) harass all the Umbrellas.

[gladiokinesis]

She can mock Diego for having a pack of wolves that he named all after his robot mom. (yes this is something that really happened) There would be a lot of fun she could get up to and just mess with all the umbrellas. Diego would be excited to see her but try (and fail) to play it cool.

[littlemimic]

He went from lone wolf to leader of the pack and she absolutely would point that out as many times as possible. And maybe only the smallest bit of light teasing about mom stuff (they both have some issues there so throwing stones in her own glass house). I feel like Lila would have a blast with a lot of people there, even the stuffy ones. Lila would be happy to see him, just make it low key.

Or not with impromptu hugs.

[gladiokinesis]

he would not hug first until he was certain she was from a point where it was safe to hug her

he knows better.

but yes the lone wolf has a literal pack, please tease accordingly

[littlemimic]

I was considering taking her from near the end of season 3, so Diego would be the last person she played headgames with. Still, they have that kind of relationship.

She would teach them to howl on command.

[gladiokinesis]

They do, but he'll be glad she's playing less mind games.

Please do, Lila.

[littlemimic]

They all need less mind games.

Anyway, you can add me on plurk Tsukeru as sadly I must sleep now.

[gladiokinesis]

Added and sleep well!!!

[somebadnews]

Hello hi, I just wanted to +1 Katie! We'd all be excited to have either Lila or Ben at eastbound, and it looks like the game would check all your boxes. I play Five there, and either one would throw him for a tailspin. Please come and break his brain.

Lila in particular would be so fun to have around if you're already leaning in that direction. (She's at the top of my character wishlist tbh.) I hope you decide to give it a shot!

[littlemimic]

Hello! Eastbound was already on my very short list, courtesy of a friend who plays there. Admittedly it was for another character entirely, but Lila would be a great starting character for me.

And breaking Five's brain is great fun, which Lila will enjoy. Their banter was amazing in S3 and she would enjoy making a game out of all the big things he doesn't know yet.

Also feel free to add me on plurk.

[somebadnews]

It's a great little game with a fantastic plot, I have nothing but good things to say about it. Lila would enjoy hearing how many plans have completely backfired on Five since he's been there, he's had a great time. There's a lot of material to work with.

And I agree! I've had a dream that she'd be the one to come in with all the s3 truth bombs, truly the best possible way to hear about them.

Done and done! I'm lonesheep on there. :>

[littlemimic]

She'll bring the popcorn to hear all the little stories like it's a great movie. Going back to them on bad days to cheer her up. Even if she'll help him in future endeavors.

Make him work for the info, or play pictionary: the universe ending addition

[somebadnews]

Isn't it funny when people come from different points in a relationship? He'll still be 50/50 that she'll try to kill him, and she can laugh at how easy he is.

Not giving him a straight answer about the apocalypse is what he deserves for killing her parents. One of his closest and only friends, really.

[littlemimic]

It really is and she'll love the fact that he thinks that. Give him some spooks. It's all good training, two Commission assassins keeping their skills sharp.

Just two people, getting used by the Handler, taking out targets, and expendable. Who else would be their closest friend?

[rumorate]

Slides in here with the third Hargreeves for an EB hat trick - Hello! I'm Emily and I play Allison and it would be very exciting to have a Lila. They literally had one scene in s3 and I need this dynamic so much.

You can catch me on plurk @ iluvroadrunner6.

[littlemimic]

Hi Emily! The Hargreeves have descended! They really did need more scenes together, and RP can rectify this. Girl bonding time.

Added!
