October 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!

SINGILLATIM — Post-Apocalyptic Survival with Supernatural/Horror Themes
"You are the Interloper.
You are not part of nature's design."
Singillatim is a Post-Apocalyptic Survival game heavily inspired by Hinterland Studios' The Long Dark, set on an alternate earth on remote island territory cut off from the mainland and rest of the world, in the vague, furthest reaches of Northern Canada. Gameplay focuses on character development and character stories, with survival / post-apocalyptic themes, and some supernatural / folk horror thrown in for good measure. Characters are de-powered, with chances to gain powers within the game setting. There is no network. The game is small and slow-paced, with events and TDMs running on alternating months.
Characters find themselves transported from their home worlds and stranded in a wild, empty world of eternal winter thanks to strange geological/geomagnetic shifts which has effected nature and man alike. There's no escape. Only the Auroras can signal the comings and goings of this place, and they may be both a blessing and a curse to you. Create groups for survival, scavenge for supplies, learn the harsh ways of mother nature (now warped by the Aurora's power) and survive.
Test Drive Meme is currently open.

GOOD MORROW - Premodern cult living with Eldritch overtones
And then it was over, and you were somewhere else. Settled in a pew, wearing soft robes, and listening to the glory of the Old Ones, of whom you are apparently now a new disciple.
Good Morrow is a panfandom jamjar RPG set in a sleepy seventeenth-century village that coincidentally happens to worship a pantheon of cosmic horrors. Player characters are heralded as good omens and regularly subjected to the lingering presence of the omniscient Old Ones, who always seem to blur the line between perception and peculiarity. Will you unpack the secrets of the ancient cult and find a way home? Or will you let madness claim you and trade your mind for the untold secrets of the cosmos?
All knowledge comes at a price. How much are you willing to pay?
Apps are currently open and close on October 21. Our current TDM is available here if you'd like to give the setting a try.
SMALL GAMES
Sticks & Bones - A Panfandom Horror Jamjar
erhaps you were simply going about your day, or perhaps you were in the middle of some life-changing fight, staring down death. Perhaps you're already dead. Either way, you hear a voice whispering somewhere in the back of your mind: "Do you want to play with me?"
It does not wait for an answer.
You wake up in the center of a small settlement in a dark, dreary forest- it's clearly been abandoned, given the incomplete state of several buildings. The General Store has it's lights on still, but the shopkeep is wary of his new patrons. And when you try to leave, something keeps you there. You're here to play, after all- it wouldn't do if you went home too early, would it?
PUMPKIN HOLLOW: A cheeky horror-comedy jamjar served with a side of mystery
xisting in the space between life and death, what was and what could be, you are granted a new life in a small town on a chilly island which suffers from a terrible curse. Start anew here, uncover mysteries with your neighbors, and rub elbows with enigmatic organizations, and you may yet discover what it will take to escape purgatory.
May your lantern always stay lit.

Pumpkin Hollow is a tongue-in-cheek horror comedy with a collaborative mystery for players to unravel and several fully interactable NPCs. It's inspired by media like "Welcome to Night Vale", "Over the Garden Wall", and "Fallen London". New TDMs are posted bi-monthly!

GLENCOLA REEF | a Panfandom Survival/Exploration/Adventure DWRP Game
It's a great day to visit the beach. It hasn't quite reached noon yet, so the sun's rays kiss your face without burning it and leave the sand under your fingers warm, but not uncomfortable. There isn't a cloud in the sky overhead. You hear the sound of waves lapping against the shore somewhere nearby, the gentle rustling of leaves. Your feet feel a bit wet.
Actually, all of you feels kind of wet. Did you take a dip in the ocean recently?
How long have you been here?
Where is here, exactly?
You're startled out of your growing confusion by a sharp crackle of static from the handheld transceiver laying in the sand next to your ear, as others just like you awaken, alone, on other parts of the beach.
You might not remember how you got here, or why, but that doesn't necessarily mean that you're stuck. Surely the answers are there, at your fingertips or underfoot - if you just look close enough.
Reparacija A Panfandom 18+ Horror Game
Reparacija is a pan-fandom kink game set in the fictional prison of the same name, with an overarching plot and a mix of sex, horror aspects, sci-fi elements, and some 'slice of life'. Characters are brought to the facility under the guise of serving a sentence for crimes committed against their home-worlds, with the promise of returning home after their sentence is completed. In reality, fulfillment of those sentences is all that's keeping the planet alive as the native population scrambles in a race against time to find a way to stop the blight and break the curse placed upon their planet generations ago. Here, character actions can change the course of the game, and emphasis is on CR-building as characters will need to rely on one another to survive on a planet that grows more and more uninhabitable and inhospitable as time goes on, among a people who only care about their ability to sustain the planet's life.
