October 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.

Luocha ([personal profile] casketeer)

I am up to date with 1.4 and needless to say I am living rn. So happy for my man and his new(???) criminal era. He might be the worst merchant we've ever heard of confirmed but we sure have heard of him lmfao...where will his schemes go now, who knows!! Let's thread vicariously until we find out--

seeking;
    💐 As far as castmates go:
  • Jing Yuan: Gestures at 1.4......yeah. I need more of whatever the hell they've got going on here. The mutual knifecat energy, chef's kiss...it's 👀⚔️👀 ust brain game vibes all the way down and I am here for it ok. Part of me wants Jing Yuan to have all the rest in the world after all the Absolute Nonsense he's been dealing with lately but look. Another part of me. Would also love to see how Luocha could make it worse. Or at least more exciting in a different way, hey ✨
  • Blade/Ren: yeah they still haven't interacted yet Wow they've finally interacted!! With like, fifteen seconds of judgmental eye-contact on Blade's part lmfao BUT LOOK IT'S A START...anyway I forever love the inherent comedy of their combat kit synergy, but there's also the inherent spiciness of a mutual grudge against the Abundance that I just think they could really dig into. Listen sir, yeeting Yaoshi off the cliff of existence would probably give you that burial you want so bad...just sayin....!
  • Jingliu: God please. Please. I wanna thread off a Jingliu so bad now....their implied co-working relationship is just so?? I don't know. I need to know. Jingliu's voice line for him....the 🤝 of living life with a hole in your heart and Dealing With It in the most unhinged ways possible. MHY may have only given us the barest crumbs but I need more gdi!!
  • Dan Heng: Look I'm still fond of the chill acquaintance vibes they had going on during their little sidequest field trip with Sushang, and there are probably potential Parallel Complicated Home Feelings floating in here waiting to surface.....but also. Listen. The new layer of awkwardness now that Luocha's off to crime jail?? That brief eye contact moment they had when the neo-HCQ all got together and Luocha was promptly shuffled off the premises lmaooo I'm so sorry Dan Heng. No Luocha will not be explaining. He still thinks you're cool tho don't worry about it--
  • Welt: I just think it's funny how this one super specific variety of Blond Scheming Bastard Man With Big Plans keeps cropping up in his life even across the multiverse....wipes away single tear. I'm basically contractually obligated to harass Welts now. Let Luocha play some brain games with you too sir.....
  • Topaz??: Yeah probably a long shot but look. This fuckin comic has been living rent-free in my head getting exponentially funnier with 1.4 confirmation of the Absolute State of Luocha's merchant wares and now I need this flavor of interaction in my life,
  • But honestly I'm happy to bounce this guy off pretty much anyone and everyone else in this bar, whether or not Luocha's actually met/will ever meet them in canon! The rest of the Astral Express crew, other Xianzhou and Belobog characters, the Stellaron Hunters, the Herta space station folks....im greedy ok.
  • Also the idea of Luocha ever encountering the og Otto or Void Archives for the most fucked up face shenanigans truly speaks to me now...I'm still only peripherally familiar with HI3 admittedly but at this point I'm getting ready to start watching Otto clips so I'm already knee-deep in this hell ig, may as well go full ham!!
    💐 Open to both memes and longer-term psls! I'm usually faffing around on memes and don't mind carrying over cr between threads. I'm also pretty receptive to AUs and canon divergences (the latter which is probs gonna end up increasingly necessary possibly as canon goes on lol), so I'm happy to brainstorm thoughts along these lines if we wanna!
      💐 Gen is always lovely, but I'm also very down for shipping! ICly Luocha may take some warming up for anything deeper than a mutually casual fling due to some strongly implied hangups and also something of a particular coffin fixation coughs, but! OOCly I'll toss him together with just about anyone where the chemistry's fun. No gender pref IC or OOC, m/m or m/f or m/* equally fair game. I'm also down for smut of both the one night stand and slowburn varieties! Kink list for that over here.
      💐 I'm a CST timezone haver and kind of variably active. In the last couple weeks especially I've been irl busy as hell and have become even slower as a result, thanks everybody for your patience as I slowly clamber back on the tag ball 🥺💕 Granted even at the best of times I'm generally not a real speedy tagger, so I'm not super prone to boomeranging, but I'm happy to backtag along steadily if you are! I may also get a bit carried away with tag length at times but please never feel pressured to match me, I just ramble a lot im sorry...looks at this lengthy psl ad, looks away.....
      💐 If anything in all this is of interest feel free to drop a comment here! If you ever want to contact me in general, too, a PM to this journal works just fine

    hi! i don't have any castmates to offer you, but just wanted to check if you'd be open to crosscanon? i'm familiar with star rail and i thought it'd be fun to throw siegfried at luocha if you're down; he's a former knight who was framed for regicide but has recently been officially pardoned, and now occasionally trains new recruits and does mercenary/bodyguard work on the side. he's also part dragon/is slowly turning into a dragon due to the dragon blood he drank years ago so if that's of interest to you, i'm super down to clown.

    granblue fantasy does a lot of crosscanon collabs, so it'd be really easy for me to au him to star rail canon to make it easier—maybe he can be a bodyguard for luocha on his travels? he's pretty chill and easygoing for the most part, and is content to give the appearance of just vibing while luocha does his schemes, at least until it actually involves hurting innocents so, you know. waves hands vaguely.

    anyway i'm just spitballing so please lmk if any of this sounds good to you! thanks for your time either way!

    oh rip im just now realizing i accidentally deleted my usual crosscanon section in retooling this ad for this month aUGH hey hello!! i am definitely super open to crosscanon always, honestly it's on me for forgetting to include that here so you're totally good, thanks so much for checking ❤️ while i'm fairly canonblind to granblue on the whole, siegfried does sound pretty interesting and i definitely wouldn't mind bouncing these two off each other to see what happens!

    if you'd not mind auing him into stair rail canon, bodyguarding luocha during his travels sounds like a great setup to get things rolling hehe...don't mind luocha over here calling himself a merchant but never seeming to actually sell anything no matter where they go. "there's something i need to find for a particular contract of mine" very normal commercial things. the elaborate coffin's another delivery obligation don't worry about that either. look he's paying well for the bodyguarding gig so that's the main thing right!! honestly bless siegfried in advance for having the chill and patience to deal with this guy's shadiness lmao, but at least he seems to mean well...for the most part....no direct civilian casualties Yet.....

    also that dragon-turning ailment of yours sounds kind of dire sir do you need that. looked at. perhaps workshopped a bit?? with sufficient investment luocha might be willing to help looking into curing that too, if it's curable...the silver linings of being knee-deep in Abundance Nonsense. EITHER WAY i feel there could be some real neat dynamics here so lay it on me!! i can grab a few meme toplevel links if you wanna kick off something there, unless you'd rather kick things off in more of a psl thing? totally up to you, i'm down for threading whatever wherever!

    no worries at all, and i'm glad!! i'm totally down to au siegfried and can easily work him into the setting—he'd likely roll with hunt or preservation; he gets stronger/beefier with the more hits he takes and is a great meat shield so he's like a tankier blade lmao. he's Seen Some Shit(tm) in his lifetime so luocha's Very Normal Commercial Things and his fancy coffin won't be a problem at all! he will. endeavor to protect it as well since it clearly looks important. siegfried's pretty perceptive and is good at reading people so he won't push if luocha would rather keep his cards close to his chest 👌🏻

    re: the dragon-turning ailment.... closes my eyes he probably does. canon has not given him a cure so far, but the most recent event revealed that siegfried is actually a descendent of a long line of dragon-people and thus has two dragons in him now (??): fafnir (whom he drank the blood of) and his other dragon lineage. he's also been cursed by those same dragon-people and has partially lost his eyesight so that's another thing... the curse kind of enhanced his other senses though so he's just been relying on that and instincts to get by and it's worked out pretty well so far. yeah it's A Lot.

    anyway we can definitely play around with that; luocha could probably find out about his eyesight from sieg's employer upon hire maybe, or he could likely tell himself since the curse manifests as this weird bruising on the skin around the eye area and his eyes look pale/milky. he likely won't talk very much about the specifics of his dragon problem because the threat of him going full dragon mode and wilding out is something that plagues him often, but i think it'd be an interesting cr point especially in instances where his senses/instincts can't really save him (i.e. when he has to read, etc) and he needs to ask for help. which is also something he needs to work on, go figure.

    this is getting horrendously long i'm so sorry lmfkljasd but yes!! i think i saw luocha on a few memes so i can hit up his toplevels for those shortly! i'll try and get something up before i turn in for the night, if not after work tomorrow. just a heads up i'm currently in the middle of a move, so my pace might be a bit spotty. feel free to chuck any ideas at me though if you're feeling something specific!!

    oh my god...this poor man....sir you're on the fast track to catching every unfortunate fantasy disease, please slow down??? THEY WILL WORK ON THIS...

    i think luocha's generally a sharp enough sort to end up picking up on the partial blindness as they go along even without being informed, so! might be fun to see how long he opts to circle around outright saying anything about this and the Dragon Problems in general before finally getting into it at the most (in)opportune time. such as an occasion where siegfried might need to Ask For That Help yes hehe. there's a lot of potential here! i think we could have plenty to chew on and i am sure looking forward to it now rubs hands

    also no worries at all about being slow! i've definitely also been hit by a case of the rp snails due to rl being supremely busy and turning my writing brain into mashed potato haha, but that just means we can trundle along at this together 🤝 here's to hoping your move goes smoothly as possible!
