January 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. ➤ All mod responses regardless of whether they're rule breaks, correction requests (like someone posting in the wrong section), or thwapping someone for spamming copy-paste ads, have always been and will almost universally be public. If someone sends a PM and the conversation gets combative, this will also be made public and posted to the comments of the mod contact page. This is for the sake of transparency so people can judge the emp mod's communications for fairness themselves. There are times where the player's post may be screened (such as if they posted to the wrong section) but the mod's response will be left unscreened. ➤ Players may sometimes be allowed more than one strike for copy-paste ads since this is often just enthusiasm behind it, but game mods should know better. They'll get one warning for copy-paste ads, and if they spam anymore copy-paste ads after the warning, they'll be banned from the meme. MOD CONTACT: If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please!

the speed, i will be honest, for me personally, it does vary. example, ive had only had like 2-3 tags in my inbox from the game for the last 3 days. however during november and last month, it was a tad bit busy on my end (then again, i play this knucklehead who starts arguments with people and forest fires so...idk if you can take my word for it fully when i make jinx do shit like that lol).
the AC in deer is pretty reasonable! 10 network comments and 5 log comments. and of course there are a bunch of alternatives (like what i do for AC is: 1 network post, 1 catch all log - or i just tag someone in a log). and IC inboxes count as AC too so i think that's pretty cool.
the game is based on bloodborne which you don't need to know the video game lore or anything. i played the video game maybe once or twice but i've been understanding what's going on and happening in the game pretty well. blood is the big main thing in the game if not the thing. in fact, currency in this game is giving blood to other people or bloodgems/stones and what not. there's a lot of other triggering stuff like gore and people's bones breaking or throwing up organs. so yeah, it gets pretty wild but naturally, you don't have to have your characters go through anything that insane unless you want to.
and you'll always have something to do in this game as well! there's definitely not a time where you are sitting around twiddling your thumbs on "i dont know what to do".
the TDM events do become in-game things that happen, then your blood type side-effects change every month, there's environment events (ex. the city's been getting a lot of earthquakes cause the patron gods are sick and inside the craters are zombies, shortage on food, weird monster footprints all over the snow), we just unlocked a new city this month and a lot of people went out exploring, and then there's the main events. so yeah! there's plenty to do and of course, you don't have to do all of these, you can opt-out on stuff.
people in the game are very back-tag friendly which i know sounds like a broken record and it's what everyone says. but i know a good bit of people in the game that are still tagging stuff from november.
as for test drive meme, our next one isn't until the 25th (when it's scheduled) but you can still tag the december one if you want a link to that!
i don't know if im hitting all the info that you need but feel free to let me know if you got more questions!!
we would definitely love to have sevika with us! especially when every month so far, we've been getting a new arcane character coming into the game so it'll just be funny if that trend just keeps going and all the arcane characters are just bracing themselves and thinking "oh man, who is it gonna be THIS month?"
BUT! in case deer isn't your jam, i would love to still play with you in memes and stuff if you're ever floating around. good luck and hope you find a home for your characters!!

Sounds interesting. The squid thing is a little weird but I'll keep looking over the info pages. It would be nice to have a cast, even if most of that cast is gonna hate Sevika.
I can wait for the 25th for a new TDM. The current one feels a little dusty to me and I'm planning for February, anyhow, so no rush. Thanks for the suggestion!

and i also gave jinx coldblood blood type which means she has fire, ice, and electric abilities and the powers are link to her emotions like shimmer is. so she is like even 100x more dangerous now lol.
(and also, viktor is secretly hiding shimmer vials in his lab from everybody and jinx has the hextech gem that vi gave to her as a form of trust. the crystal doesn't hold TOO much power but she is still hanging onto it in case... something.)
but don't worry, jinx will happily troll sevika every chance she gets. since she can't go trigger happy because there is someone in the game that has her on a leash and is keeping her from shooting people at random and going ballistic. and everyone in the cast is mind-blown how this person is able to keep jinx in line.
yes definitely no rush and no problem, friend!! glad i could help you out.
