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.

★ offering—
○ kamisato ayaka ([personal profile] mistsplitter), genshin impact
○ furina ([personal profile] jestice), genshin impact
○ joshua rosfield ([personal profile] feathering), final fantasy xvi
○ rinoa heartilly ([personal profile] starspells), final fantasy viii

★ seeking/ preferences—
gen or shippy things! i'd just love to do more things and explore all kinds of scenarios with them. castmates or crosscanon— i love them all. ♥

for ayaka, i'm very very open to all sorts of things. a genshin au where the traveler didn't help inazuma out and all hell breaks loose, an au where ayato is assassinated, an au where she grew up elsewhere because she was brought there so the fatui wouldn't find her, or some more lighthearted things! i've always wanted some sort of idol au, as well, amongst other things. jamjar-settings and bringing her to someone else's world would also be very fun, i think!!

as for furina, she's new!! at this time, her story isn't out yet, so there's a lot of headcanon i'm going to be writing about! gen things or shippy is fine, and i have a preference for shipping with neuvillette, arlecchino, and navia for canonmates. cross canon, everything is game! all kinds of sceenarios are very welcome. since i'm working with a lot of headcanon, a lot of plotting might have to be involved before threading things out. aus, canon divergence, etc are very welcome. ♥

for joshua, i'd love to do crosscanon things specifically, or if anyone would like to do some phoenixflare things, i would be very happy to play stuff out! he's not used to socialising with people bc he's just been so deadset on his goals for years, so i'd love to make him try new things. i love plotting out all kinds of aus with joshua, and have little ideas for a flower shop au, and some canon divergent ones. would honestly love to fit him in other final fantasies too, if anyone would be open to those!

with rinoa, i have a big preference for threading with some squalls, or just generally anyone who'd be patient with her bc she is a gremlin... :') i prefer shippy things with her, but i don't have any specific scenarios i wanna play out for now. though anything with squall is A+.

★ etc-
○ open to all sorts of ships for my chars!! i'm mostly looking for smth long term and not just one-off scenarios. could be on memes following that continuity or in private posts.
○ smutty scenarios are okay, tho if you'd like to just straight up get to it without the build up, i'm open to that too.
○ feel free to send a pm my way! i can give my discord if that's more convenient, too.
○ for ooc related things, i am on gmt+8, and prefer brackets-style rp! i can be slow at times, so i appreciate any patience shown my way when it comes to tagging.

I'd be interested in Ayaka if you don't mind Yeyasu here! He's a flirty partyboy shogun who's flexible for all sorts of scenarios.

A few scenarios that I've been thinking of are:
1. Arrange marriage scenario where Ayaka is meant to marry this loser and he's got to learn how to be a responsible husband in the long run. Perhaps she's going to be assassinated and has to change her last name or their families have been at war and their marriage is meant to bring peace. (A darker version of this one of Yeyasu's assassins came along to kill Ayato and push Ayaka into marrying into the Edogawa family so they can take advantage of the clan's resources!!)

2. Idol AU where Yeyasu is the manager who sees the potential in Ayaka and decides to make her one with all of the ups and downs that go along with that!

3. Yeyasu is a demon, so Ayaka coming to his Netherworld would be interesting! Hinomoto is a pretty peaceful place based of feudal era Japan. And he's the bumbling ruler of it!

4. A jamjar scenario where they've both stuck in a fantasy world and must figure things out together! I'm open for something like exploring a dungeon together for a quest for starters.

ANYWAY... THAT'S IT FOR MY LIST. I'm open to other ideas if you've got them!

I'm canonblind to the game, but if you don't mind that, then we're good +A+b I haven't played any Disgaea games since the 2nd one.

The arranged marriage thing is very interesting to me, but any conflict between the two families I feel wouldn't work because Ayaka would just be sad the whole time. Maybe something along the lines of both families would benefit from the marriage, though, like better business prospects or territory or something? Although admittedly that dark version is also pinging me... So whichever of those— what you think might also work better for your char!

I'm cool with mixing the 3rd prompt in too, since youkai do exist in Inazuma, if you wanted to do that!

[personal profile] staffcocked 2023-10-18 03:56 am (UTC)(link)
That's fine by me! My Genshin knowledge isn't the best as well, but we can definitely hash something out if you're still down.

And I'm liking the sound of both families benefiting from their marriage since it'd be a good opportunity for the Edogawa family to expand themselves and Yeyasu is open-minded enough to accept other cultures too. Perhaps that Ayato assassination could be a future plotline if you want to add some ~drama~ in the mix too! A third party who's not a fan of them joining together could do it.

That also sounds good with me. There's all kinds of demons in his world, so might be a chance for Yeyasu to want to show that they aren't all scary or threatening. They could tour each other's worlds for some cultural exchanges!

that sounds good!

the yashiro commission's boss is basically a yokai, and oni do exist in inazuma! unfortunately, a lot of people discriminate against oni, so i feel like the public wouldn't be so happy with yeyasu being engaged to ayaka, but it'd be a step in the right direction in like... inazuma becoming more accepting of non-humans!

HAHA... He's used to being hated by people in canon, but he's working hard to make his world and himself better. That definitely works out well with me! *__*

Did you have any preferences on how you wanted to start? One idea I had was a first date night where Yeyasu a bit flustered since he's never been on a date before!!

[personal profile] mistsplitter 2023-10-19 02:20 am (UTC)(link)
That works with me! Maybe it can be set in his world or smth and he can also show her around and introduce her to certain things there?
staffcocked: (Uh-hyahyahyahyahya!!)

[personal profile] staffcocked 2023-10-19 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
That sounds good to me! I'll set up a starter and let you know when it's ready. /o/
