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.

btvs, mcu, magicians — seeking spn, batman, star trek, sandman

offering —
» buffy summers, buffy the vampire slayer ( [personal profile] first_summers )
» daisy johnson, agents of shield / mcu ( [personal profile] chuju )
» julia wicker, the magicians ( [personal profile] ourladytrees )

seeking —
I'm specifically looking for multiverse and crosscanon things for these ladies. Also, since it's spooky season, I'd love some horror scenarios (even with characters not listed below); apocalypses, zombies, monsters, ghosts, I love them all.

» Buffy Summers is she who hangs out a lot in cemeteries, the original Chosen One destined to fight the forces of darkness and die a whole lot doing it. She's lived her life with the literal weight of the world on her shoulders and has a whole lot of damage from it that I would love to explore. I pull Buffy from post-season 7 and disregard most of the canon comics because they were hard to keep up with and went a bit off the rails, though I'll occasionally pull bits from them in references.

» seeking: Dean Winchester or Castiel from Supernatural for platonic or shipping things, and Sam Winchester for strictly platonic things. (Please someone let her big sister at the moose.) These canons and characters just work so well together and crossovers like these are the stuff RP dreams are made of.


» Daisy Johnson is a millennial hacker turned spy turned superhero who has been through more trauma than most characters in the MCU, including growing up an orphan, being betrayed by those she loves, the death of many loved ones that she feels responsible for... I tend to play her post-season 7 when she's in her early 30s.

» seeking:
Bruce Wayne, especially the Robert Pattinson version — I absolutely loved the vibe of the new movie and Bruce getting back to his crime-fighting detective roots, so I'd like to drop Daisy into his verse and have her live a 'powerless' vigilante life while searching for a way back home. (Open to other Bruces too, though!)
Star Trek characters, specifically from AOS, Disco, and SNW. I've been on a deep dive into the newer series and would love to toss Daisy into Trekverse and see what happens. The multiverse is canon to the MCU so it's pretty easy to manage, and there are so many things she could relate to with different characters. (My nonexistent kingdom for a Pike to talk about premonitions with.)
Dream of the Endless, because I am easily influenced and this video came for me. Morpheus emerging from captivity to oh, and there are aliens now just seems like one of those "this might as well happen" things.


» Julia Wicker is a strong-willed, stubborn, incredibly smart, and fiercely protective magician who tends to make fairly questionable life choices and doesn't really take no for an answer. She's been through hell a few times and has the emotional scars to prove it, but she's healing, and depending on canonpoint, she is becoming or has recently been an actual goddess. Also, despite becoming a goddess, Julia firmly believes that gods are dicks and will appreciate others who share that view. (Because they are numerous, please review her cw.)

» seeking: Sandman characters, especially the Endless, Hob, and any version of Constantine, and MCU characters who are magic users, gods, or street superheroes, especially in NYC. I've also recently become enamored with the idea of tossing Julia into Middle-Earth since other worlds are canon in The Magicians.

notes —
» I would love to set up some long-term PSLs but will also do memes with continuity. Sailing ships is always an option for these ladies (both f/m and f/f), but gen things and close platonic bonds are also good. I do enjoy a good slow-burn ship and am always happy to 'see how things go' when it comes to romance.
» My favorite things to write include emotional moments, hurt/comfort, bonding over shared experiences/trauma, stolen moments of happiness, normal daily life for people who aren't used to it and thus struggle with and find it extremely weird... I love brainstorming ideas and am always happy to write starters.

» My tagging speed varies between glacially slow and boomeranging like whoa depending on life. I never mean to drop threads, it just unintentionally happens sometimes, so please let me know if I've been quiet and you'd like to continue things!
