April 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. ➤ 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!

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.

JOHN CONSTANTINE (2005)

𝕤𝕖𝕖𝕜𝕚𝕟𝕘, 𝕡𝕣𝕖𝕗𝕤, 𝕖𝕥𝕔.

— DC cast interactions. i like to just assume they know (of) each other or have crossed paths at some point or another when it comes to interactions with other DC characters. comics, movies, tv, animation, etc. DC's a mess to begin with so why not just make it all work somehow anyways.
— special request for bruce wayne/batman so john can be annoying and gently flirt with him to rile him up. also other versions of himself, blade, and daredevil come to mind for interactions i'd be interested in exploring.
— crosscanon interactions, especially those who are psychic, witchy, exorcists, supernatural in some way, or have religious ties/backgrounds. good guys and morally gray characters also always of interest as are those who are just Tired of things. monsters creatures, angels, demons, "hunters" of whatever sort = all good.
— gen, angst, and slightly darker shit are my go-to's with john as are text-based threads and memes. i'm always good for continuing cr and previous interactions across memes so always feel free to hit him up if they've threaded/texted before.
— he's not that great at being a role model or mentor but he tends to look out for those younger than him despite his coming off very cynical, a bit of a jerk, and tired half the time. so anything involving being like a mentor or needing to guide someone (especially in his line of work or those similar to him and what he can do) is something i won't say no to.
— i play john bisexual like his other incarnations so i'm open to both m/m and m/f for shipping although i don't generally jump right into shipping with him right off the bat. usually. sometimes filthy hookups happen, ok. if he's comfortable enough with you, he'll flirt though (even if it comes off dry) and by no means do you need to flirt back with him. it's just john being john and if you threaten to take his smokes, he'll stop. probably.
— movie!john differs a little in some ways and comes with a couple triggers/warnings that can be found in his journal for info and prefs.

— mostly have him on memes at the moment and thank you to all those who have threaded with him and as such, it's encouraged me to bring him around more. 🖤
— if you ever want something with john, have an idea, want to continue/develop something further or whatever, PM's are always open or just hit me up here or on a meme to discuss things. i'm open to a lot of things, filth and dark stuff included.

[unvamped]

He's not a Blade, but he is Blade's daddy mentor. He's also absolutely tired and too old for this shit. Just two cynical assholes drinking, smoking, and discussing the best ways to kill a demon/vampire/what have you. While I generally play him from the truly God awful Blade: Trinity, I can also do the Actually a Vampire Right Now Because Vampires Suck Whistler for extra tired of this shit flavor.

[lastrequests]

Honestly, whatever version you're feeling called to (even Trinity) works for me. John having either dealt with or come across Blade before as a means to give them a bit of familiarity between each other is always on the table as is just running in the same sort of circles. Or, since John mostly specializes in angels and demons, needs a bit of help/guidance on some vampire nonsense.

[controlling]

I am a big fan of John & Bruce interaction in any universe and I would love to team them up. I also play Madame Xanadu who must suffer Constantine dropping by on occasion for more mystic/occult fun. ♥

[lastrequests]

Everyone needs to suffer this cynical asshole at some point in their lives so clearly I am here for it. If you’re itching for something in particular, I’m probably here for it no matter the genre. 👋

[controlling]

Sorry for the late reply! I don't have anything in particular in mind. If you've got John up on a meme somewhere, I'll be happy to hit him up and see where we go from there.

[lastrequests]

My turn to apologize now. Work's been a week. To my knowledge I just have him up on tfln currently otherwise I can toss him somewhere else and throw the link at you.

Re: dc.

[keepgodwaiting]

Other versions of himself, you say! I also really enjoy Constantine-vs-Constantine and would love to hit up John with Johanna here.

[lastrequests]

Who doesn't want some John on John bullshit tbh?

[ibiza]

I'm not sure if you'd be interested, but you did say witchy. I love Hellblazer. Perhaps we could somehow insert Brakebills into the DC canvas and Margo could be a recent graduate looking for work. Or eliminate Brakebills altogether.
