October 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.

preferences.
FOR AETHER: Looking for any and all castmates! Genshin Impact is my main focus right now and I love it to pieces, so I'd be happy to play Aether off any other character from it, even if you're just voicetesting and not seriously committed to a muse at the moment. Gen threads are very welcome — I'm down to do anything from wacky adventures to more serious musings on life and death and what have you. I'm open to almost all M/M ships right now, but I'm perfectly fine with playing gen if you're not interested in shipping.

FOR CISSNEI: I'm open to any and all castmates from the FF7 compilation for Cissnei, but I'm especially interested in playing her off Zack or any of the Turks! I'll happily work out specific plot hooks with your particular character, or we can just throw each other starters on a favorite meme of yours, but I'm not looking for anything in particular; what I'd like to play is basically... dystopian slice-of-life in Midgar, I guess? Workplace safety violations? I don't even know if that makes sense, but it's the mood. I'm OTA for shipping with Cissnei with the caveat that anything with her will be pretty slowburn.

FOR SARA: Same here, pretty much: I'm looking for castmates when it comes to Sara, but I'd be open to cross-canon with her, too! I'm particularly interested in Sara as a flawed protagonist, so I'd love to lean into bad end content or just incorporate her worst impulses into the background of our thread. I'm equally capable of writing fun shenanigans and fluff, though. OTA 16+ for most ships; my favorites are Keiji and Joe, but I'm willing to try anything with anyone.

• Slow tags are fine! Expect anywhere between 1 - 21 days for a tag depending on my personal workload. I know that’s kinda crazy; you can add me on Plurk if you’d like to know what I’m up to, but basically I’m just super busy for long stretches at a time and then catch up on everything in my inbox when I can!

• I'm always pretty slow but I'm like, extra slow right now, so if that's a dealbreaker for you, I just want you to know in advance!

• I prefer brackets. Prose is not a dealbreaker. We can blend styles if you're willing to do that.

• Feel free to reply here or PM me! Happy to provide Plurk or Discord as necessary.

/casually busts through the wall like the kool-aid man

So, I might love Cissnei just a little bit. I have Zack here to offer for a mix of sol and story if that would be up your alley. Do you lean more towards earlier Canon pre-Nibelheim then or would you be interested in post-Nibelheim at all?

gently rebuilds the wall behind u........

But! Big gasp, absolutely, I'd be very down for SOL and story content with Zack! Hmm, what do you have in mind when you say post-Nibelheim? Do you mean like something set in the time period when Zack is carting Cloud around, or something after Cissnei let them go?

I'm definitely down to play her at all canon points! We could also do something with the time period where she was technically in hiding at the end of Before Crisis; alternatively, I'd even be willing to play with the assumption that she's still employed by Shinra and he's still alive in the Remake timeline if you're interested in that. Let me know what you're thinking of!
