September 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.

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.

Stray Gods, Strange New Worlds, Teen Wolf, Dragon Age, tabletop OCs

[personal profile] embracethefire 2023-09-12 05:56 am (UTC)(link)
OFFERING!
Grace | Stray Gods | [personal profile] embracethefire
Captain Marie Batel | Star Trek: Strange New Worlds | [personal profile] pancakesweregood
Allison Argent | Teen Wolf | [personal profile] iokheaira
Laura Hale | Teen Wolf | [personal profile] raisealittlehale
Addy | John Wick | [personal profile] iechydda
Aella Tabris | Dragon Age | [personal profile] fangoffenharel
Hawke | Dragon Age | [personal profile] taleofthe
Elora | tabletop OC | [personal profile] seasonably

(There are a handful of others that I'd love to do things with, too. A lot of them are tabletop characters and other OCs. But this list is long enough. My full muselist is here.)

INFO!
➤ In general I am here for ALL the AUs, and what-ifs and explorations of moments in canon and post-canon. Canon, crosscanon, shippy things, gen things. Adventure, hurt/comfort, horror. Canon smooshing, AUing characters into other, separate canons.
➤ I love found family things.
➤ My tag speed varies sometimes, but generally I’m on the slow side. I will tag back forever though as long as we all have inspiration for the threads.
➤ I’m here for memes and PSLs both. I’d love to get some long term PSLs going.

SEEKING!
➤ For Grace I’m seeking EVERYONE! Pan, Apollo, Persephone, Freddie. I’d love to explore post-game things, play around with what happened during the time skip and immediately after the end, and the moments in-between the game moments that we see.

➤ With Batel, after the second season finale, not to go all spoilery but there’s SO MUCH that can be played with while we wait for season three. Give me ALL the Strange New Worlds people. Pikes (of course), Chapels, Unas. Just everyone. Let Batel [REDACTED] and accompany Pike and the Enterprise as they go [REDACTED]. Also just AUs and mirror universe shenanigans. AND TIME TRAVEL. Let Batel travel through time and visit other Star Trek shows and meet people from them. Or vice versa. Maybe SNW’s Enterprise gets more time travelly guests.

For both my Teen Wolf ladies I would LOVE to explore what-ifs where they lived. My main AU for Laura is an AU where when Peter did his whole thing to bring himself back to life, Laura came along for the ride For Reasons. Exploring how she fits into things after having been dead and what part she might play in things. And for Allison, exploring how things might change if she was alive for post-season three things. Also AUs where she ended up getting bitten to save her life and is a werewolf post-season three.

Addy I’d just like to explore her more. We get one scene with her and John and I want to explore their relationship more, and just have fun with her in that world. And AU her into other worlds, too. Crosscanon might be fun, too. Let her meet someone and experience something of what John went through when he met and fell in love with his wife.

➤ My kingdom for castmates for my Dragon Age ladies. Zevran and Sten and Alistair and Leliana for Tabris, Fenris and Varric and Sebastian for Hawke, and Cullen for EVERYONE. I have Inquisitor!AUs for all of them, and I would love to explore things with them in Inquisition era. How things might change given Tabris and Hawke's experiences carrying the weight of Thedas/Kirkwall on their shoulders. Would love to fling them all at Baldur's Gate 3 and Critical Role characters, too.

➤ Seconding Baldur's Gate characters for Elora, too. She's an Eladrin Circle of the Moon druid who is a liiiiiittle bit of a chaotic neutral chaos gremlin. Also here for other tabletop characters and Critical Role characters, too.
