July 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.

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!

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.

grishaverse, the 100, mcu

OFFERING
• Zoya Nazyalensky | Grishaverse | [personal profile] erosive
• Matthias Helvar | Grishaverse | [personal profile] furred
• Inej Ghafa | Grishaverse | [personal profile] agile
• Bellamy Blake | The 100 | [personal profile] dominance
• Wanda Maximoff | MCU | [personal profile] explosion


LOOKING FOR
in general
• My elevator pitch is that I really love long-term psls, especially the ones that start with a very vague idea of "Let's do this" and it spirals into a great story. I also like doing a few different things with the same person so that we have a little variety, but it's not a mandatory thing by any means.

• Things I enjoy: taking a 'what if' and letting it spiral with lots of great organic development, body heat, trapped somewhere, fake dating, undercover as a couple, angst (but not too heavy-handed), missions/cases, and smut.

for Zoya
• I'm interested in a Nikolai, especially book flavour. I'm halfway through Rule of Wolves and suspect I'll finish later next week and would love to do some stuff set in the books and flesh out what we've been given. (There's just not enough of them tbh!)

• I'm also open to the Darkling (I'd love to play against book!Darkling), Mal, Alina, Genya, and cross canon.

• I'm happy to play from the show and pull in some book backstory since the show has left us thirsty for Zoya details.

for Matthias
• tbh any Ninas, especially book!Nina (but will never say no to show!Nina!), to au what happens in the books and do some great Fjerda-centric stuff that we miss out on.

• We didn't get a lot of Nina and Matthias in season 2, so I'm also game to fill in the blanks and flesh that out.

for Inej
• I really love Kaz/Inej and will never say no to them, especially given their open ending in the books. I'm also game for Tolya/Inej (show!verse) and Matthias/Inej.

• I prefer to play Inej primarily from the books, but I am happy to play from the show and/or mishmash the two together.

for Bellamy
• I only play him in seasons 1-2 as the later seasons killed his voice for me. tbh I'm just really looking to play him again!

• I love shipping him with Raven, Echo and Clarke and I also love cross canon.

• I prefer to keep him in his canon world or something post-apocalyptic. Basically, gotta keep the doom and gloom and give him reasons to take his shirt off.

for Wanda
• Looking to do some shippy things with Bucky, Strange, Thor, and cross canon.

• I'm happy to play Wanda from any point in the MCU timeline, although my preference is post-Civil War, post-Wandavision and either an au or post-MOM. I do incorporate some of the comics into her backstory and am happy to thread with someone who wants to throw some comic background into things. (I'm also happy not to.)


OTHER STUFF TO KNOW
• Friendly toward backtagging highly desired. I backtag as I don't expect my thread partner to be available all the time as life is a thing and so is time. (That said, I'm not interested in receiving one tag a month as that's too slow for me and I lose interest.) I do try to boomerang when possible. (That said, I'm more than happy to write with anyone on the opposite side of the world to me!)

• I can do action spam or prose—I have no preference.

• I like writing smut, although I prefer it not to be the main reason to tag as it can get pretty dull and repetitive.

• I prefer to do things in a musebox, but I am down to try out chemistry on a meme first!

• My timezone is AEST/AEDT (depending on the time of year).

• PM is preferred as the initial contact (please pm whichever account!). I have Discord and am happy to give it out once we get started. I don't use Plurk anymore.

Thanks! ♥

Ah, yes. Vegemite. The one thing I can never do without.

Yes!! I'm still watching s2 to remember shit but tbh everything's ingrained in my brain anyway. lmk where you want to do stuff (even if we start out on a meme) and I will be there! (Unlike last(?) year where I got eaten by acid fog. I'm so sorry! Life really sucked.)

what about the chaos??

how does a post mount weather starting point sound like to you? we can build slowly - do you have a musebox?

[personal profile] dominance 2023-07-11 10:34 am (UTC)(link)
the vegemite is the chaos!

that sounds perfect to me! i have an open post if that works? otherwise we can find somewhere else to fix this mess!

i would love to do something with wanda and jean, one of them tossed into the other's timeline?
explosion: infinity war. (pic#14701266)

[personal profile] explosion 2023-07-11 10:41 am (UTC)(link)
that sounds epic to me! i love jean (and have been wanting to read her comics for years, so this feels like a good excuse!). i'm not overly familiar with the x-men in comics aside from their appearances in anything wanda is in—so maybe it'd be easier to toss jean into the mcu timeline? (or we can be inspired by mom and throw them into a completely different universe.)

[personal profile] empoweringly 2023-07-11 03:35 pm (UTC)(link)
i'm happy throwing her into the mcu timeline! definitely a much less complicated timeline (i think)

omg it's the year of our lord 2023 and i have such a burning desire to play in our spacekru musebox again....i know you said you wanted to play bellamy from s1-2, but i would love to pick up threads we started from post s4 (but before s5) if you were interested?

omg hey! i was thinking of your username when i was looking up some becho stuff. i'm cool with doing something set in the spaceship era since i vaguely remember that (i feel like the show did nothing with it, iirc??? so that leaves us with so much good shit to do). i just want to ignore the garbage bellamy does in s3 if that's cool!
