December 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.

Castmates, cross-canon, OCs are all okay!!
Gen or shipping is okay. (JingRen, Jingheng, jingrenheng is just my personal guilty pleasure.)
I'm okay with smut if it leads down to it. Jing Yuan can be top/bottom/switch.

For psl ideas, I really like reincarnation AUs... kemonomimi (pls, I just want an excuse to play him with cat/lion features) a/b/o
I'm very open to bouncing off other ideas!!

Hi there! I currently play Astarion at [community profile] labyrinthum and we have a Gale (and a Karlach returning soon hopefully) and we'd love to see Halsin there.

I'm going to steal the summary from another one of the game players: It's a fantasy setting based on the film Labyrinth, where characters end up stuck in this fantasy village after apparently making a deal to get a wish granted by the David Bowie-esque overlord. Characters get a potion upon arriving that grants them one of several magical powers. There are a mix of light-hearted and more intense events occurring within the setting, including events that draw on the settings of different canons, AC is only five comments per month. Apps are open from the 5th-10th, and there's a bimonthly test drive meme that doubles as an in-game event. Here is an overflow of the most recent one that's actually from November, but a new one should be up in January.

I'm also down for any Astarion-based stuff you'd like to do too, as an FYI! <3

Aww, this brought a smile to my face. Thank you for letting me know! I'll definitely check out the next TDM. I've been wanting to throw either of my guys into a game. Labyrinthum sounds fun!

I'm absolutely down for anything with Astarion. I haven't forgotten our thread~ Life has just been really kicking my ass and reducing my mind to putty. With the days I have off, I hope to brush up with rp again c: If you have any specific scenarios you'd like to write, I'm all for it.

[personal profile] backscar 2023-12-26 10:19 pm (UTC)(link)
It's definitely a blast - let me know if you need any more info as I am also one of the co-mods!

Don't worry about how long it takes, I am around to backtag forever! I'm definitely happy to do almost anything because they have endeared me so much, but I haven't done much of anything post Act 3 or around the epilogue if you were ever fancying that <3
oakdaddy: (Default)

[personal profile] oakdaddy 2023-12-26 11:31 pm (UTC)(link)
I sure will! From what I've read (and correct me if my understanding is wrong about powers), it looks like it'd be fun to write Halsin not being able to turn into his fursona. Poor guy. He'll just have to bear with it.

Glad to hear that!! I adore Halstarion to pieces. I'm very much inspired by the art I've seen of the two after Astarion's Act 3 quest so maybe something like that, if you're up for something heavy. The epilogue oh so very much warmed my heart too, which can obvs come from many angles depending on decisions that were made. Maybe Astarion happening upon the new settlement Halsin's in charge of and they catch up? Then fuck around and go to the merry epilogue party? So many possibilities. I'm all for anything.

So after not playing for a while I picked Star Rail back up and am slowly catching myself back up with everything that's come out so far and was hankering to try to voicetest Dan Heng again! Especially off a Jing Yuan (Catching him at the end of the fight with Phantylia like that, you bet yourself I went straight to AO3...) if you're still interested!
jiangjun: please do not take. (Default)

[personal profile] jiangjun 2023-12-27 05:13 am (UTC)(link)
🤝🤝🤝 I've been living in AO3 since that scene too, hehe

I'm definitely still interested!! Is there anything you're particularly interested in playing out? I'm open to all ideas/any kind of memes that you'd want to play off of!
butavision: (Hm ...)

[personal profile] butavision 2023-12-27 05:26 am (UTC)(link)
All the PSL ideas you had sound interesting ALL OF THEM. since I'm still slowly working through game content at the moment, the more AU the better. There's also closer to canon "Dan Heng before he left the Xianzhou Luofu" (the complications of holding the reborn form of one of your exes prisoner for crimes of a past life rip) or him deciding to stay for a little bit after instead of leaving with the Astral Express right after.

[personal profile] jiangjun 2023-12-27 01:46 pm (UTC)(link)
e-even the omegaverse?!

I've also had an AU idea where Jing Yuan finally decides to retire and passes his duty over to Fu Xuan (congratulations on your promotion!!!) So he can join the Astral Express to live out his final century with more freedom (and allow him to spend time with watch over Dan Heng closely) before he finally subcoms to being mara-struck.

I think this would overall give us more freedom on the setting as well. But the AU is more fit for a long-term PSL; if you are looking for something shorter, I can work around with your idea of working something closer to canon where Dan Heng stays on the Luofu a little longer.

I'm a sucker for having Jing Yuan take him out on a date tour around the Luofu in his leisure clothes, instead of properly resting in bed.

That's right! He will be able to regain them with AC rewards, but when he arrives he'll have 0 powers whatsoever. No fursona for you... It will be un-bearable for him. :)

Stumbling on a settlement and bonding then heading to the party would be super cute!! Especially with the positive, happy-esque Astarion epilogue which he'd be happy to share with Halsin!!

14 years late, but hi hello I would love to bounce the idiots together in either a Platonic Bros or more shippy way.

They can insist on Not Talking About Any Of Either Of Their Shenanigans.

[personal profile] butavision 2023-12-27 10:04 pm (UTC)(link)
EVEN OMEGAVERSE tell me more.

Oh!!! I love Jing Yuan joining the Astral Express too! Lol, finally another 'adult' (I hc them all as adults fyi but there's a difference between "reckless twenty-somethings" and "I reasonably have adult children"). He can spend time with Dan Heng in the archives while Pom-Pom prepares a cabin for him... :3

Can always work in the date before that, too. A last proper "tour" (that no one else is invited to) before they leave since who knows when they're coming back that way daily missions aside.

My Hero Academia, FFVII, Jujutsu Kaisen, Yu Yu Hakusho

[personal profile] heroforall 2023-12-28 08:57 pm (UTC)(link)
[character offered]:
Izuku Midoriya | My Hero Academia | [personal profile] heroforall
Tifa Lockhart | Final Fantasy VII | [personal profile] amemoryorus
Yuji Itadori | Jujutsu Kaisen | [personal profile] cursedvessel
Keiko Yukimura | Yu Yu Hakusho | [personal profile] keikoslap

[seeking]:
• Open to both castmates and cross canon! I enjoy a variety of interactions so throw me characters who will get along, argue, be frenemies, get into outright brawls, and villain types (especially for Izuku and Yuji).
• Castmates I'm particularly interested in are:
Izuku: Ochako, Bakugo, Todoroki, Iida, Tsuyu, Mirio, Aizawa, All Might, Shigaraki, and Toga.
Tifa: Any of the core group, but especially Cloud, Aerith and Barrett.
Yuji: Fushiguro, Kugisaki, Gojo, Upperclassman Gang, and Choso.
Keiko: Any one from Team Urameshi, but mainly Yusuke (I'm begging). Would love any threads with the YYH ladies, Yukina, Botan and Shizuru.

[preferences]:
• Open to both memes and PSLs. Looking for mainly gen stuff with an emphasis on building up relationships and seeing how the characters bounce off each other. I enjoy slice of life, angst, action, and horror. I especially love any situations that challenge the characters and lends itself to introspection/discovering new sides to a character.
• Shipping is on the table if the dynamic works. For cross canon pairs I would prefer to build it up naturally. I'm particularly interested in shipping threads for Tifa with Cloud and Aerith, and for Keiko with Yusuke. Izuku and Yuji are open for shipping as well, as long as the opposite character is age appropriate (15-17). Open to M/F, M/M, and F/F pairings.
• My time zone is PST and I'm on the slower side with tagging speed, but I'm happy to backtag forever.
• Feel free to PM this or my other listed journals, or friend me on plurk at [plurk.com profile] NearTheHeart

Sorry to be getting to this a few weeks later, but if you're still looking for a cast mate, I've got Rei! I rewatched the full series earlier this year (well, everything I could get my hands on in the US, which doesn't include The Final Stroke movies) so hopefully I can still do him justice!

I'm also slow, but if you'd like a Kafka, I'm open to a PSL. I'm not too picky about the scenario, I just like their dynamic a lot.

helloooo - if this is still a valid offer i'd be happy to smush trevelyan into bg3 in some way (not limited to also just falls through the fade and lands in the forbidden realms via illithid ship) and play against astarion!

[personal profile] nibbling 2023-12-30 07:36 pm (UTC)(link)
the offer absolutely stands!! you can feel free to pm me if there's anything you'd like to discuss further, like anything you've got on your wishlist for trevelyan to get into in faerun 🙃 but i'm 100% up for it via memes or my open post!

Sonic the Hedgehog

[personal profile] manofmanynames 2023-12-31 08:16 am (UTC)(link)
Offering:

- Fang the Hunter/Sniper/Nack the Weasel (Sonic the Hedgehog game-verse ONLY, not Archie or Fleetway)

Seeking

Castmates are so, so loved. Would love to play him off of characters who know who he is. Even if you play Archie-verse or Fleetway-verse, it would still be fun to interact! Have your character surprised/confused that this Nack did not do the horrible things Archie-verse or Fleetway-verse Nack did! Have Nack shocked by the tales of his alternate dimensional selves!

I binge-played Triple Trouble 16-bit as Fang tonight. (If you don't know what that is, it is one of the most incredible fan-made games ever! It makes Triple Trouble look like Sonic 3 and Knuckles! Truly a masterpiece!) I really, really want to role-play in this verse. Explore what Nack's doing in this version, why, check out the amazing, lush levels, etc.

Tails was getting very excited by Nack's tech in the 30th Anniversary Special story Seasons of Chaos. Setting them up to interact could be very fun! They could be thrust into a scenario where they have to work together to get out of it, or they could come across each other in peaceful times and just hang out talking shop, or who knows what else!

Would love "diamond in the rough" type scenarios where Nack would be forced into an intense moral decision and make the right one to save Tails or someone else! Apparently, judging by Sonic the Fighters, if one plays as Nack and he wins, even he goes to stop Eggman's plot! There's more to this mercenary than he wants people to believe.

(Note: I've tried, but I really prefer calling him Nack. I'll call him Fang for an actual game where the current name might be required, but I'd rather call him Nack for a PSL. And I'd like to play him as a jerboa/weasel cross. I've known him as a weasel for 23 years. It is not easy to get over that, lol. I also prefer to characterize him as being from Texas rather than the fanon-popular Australia. I don't think canon has given him a distinctive speech pattern to indicate either area (or another one), so either should still be fair game!)

Yes

- Gen or friendship or found family

- SOL, mystery, adventure

- Hurt/Comfort

No

- Sex

- Forced or required transformations

- Killing the characters (unless they can be revived)

Maybe

- Horror and/or survival is a case-by-case basis

- Romance is extremely iffy and is most likely a No

ATTACK ON TITAN @ LABYRINTHUM

[personal profile] neighsaying 2024-01-02 08:04 pm (UTC)(link)
[game]: [community profile] labyrinthum
[fandom]: Attack on Titan/Shingeki no Kyojin
[game's current cast]: Jean Kirstein, Erwin Smith, Levi Ackerman, Mikasa Ackerman, Eren Jaeger, Reiner Braun, Zoe Hange
[who I play]: Jean!
[wanted]: Armin Arlert; Pieck Finger or Porco Galliard; Zeke Jaeger; Miche Zacharius, Petra Ral or Nanaba, are the specific big asks! But we'd be honestly happy to see anyone :) Worth noting our cast is close to cap, we are at 7/10!
[game info]: From the premise: Labyrinthum is a private, dark fantasy panfandom game based off of cult classic stories such as The Labyrinth, Dark Crystal, etc. with elements of slice of life, action/adventure and psychological horror. Characters are asked to live their lives out in a world between awake and asleep for unknown reasons at the hands of mysterious sorcerer who rules an enchanted land that is influenced by dreams.. or nightmares.

What the cast has been getting up to: Our Eren is 15 and just learned the fate of his future self and is super depressed about it! Mikasa, Jean and Reiner are all from the end of the series and feeling A Way about that. Erwin has a snazzy new metal arm, but he also learned he dies in the future; Levi and Jean are having father-son bonding moments. Erwin and Jean have adopted Dolph from Captain Laserhawk. (Various shipping is being had because we know what we're about).

Saw this super late. Aaaaah Jadzia!!!

[community profile] longestnight is an invite-only game based on Rise of the Guardians, a world where various myth figures like Santa and the Easter Bunny secretly defend children from the Bogeyman and other threats. After an otherdimensional being started invading and kidnapped most of the Guardians, the Belief of the kids has pulled the characters in from other universes and transformed them into mythical beings.

Recruited as new Guardians, they have to try to stop the nightmare being called Kuk before he destroys the entire multiverse. And also get used to the fact that in the game world, due to the Belief magically drawing in their stories from the worlds where they're real, they've been written about as fiction.

We've got a tiny little Trek cast there, with the Lower Decks Chaos twins, as well as a Nog! It'd be great to see Jadzia there.

It's a very low key game with only a check in AC. We're allowed to invite from emp and we currently have a tdm going where they all have to save Christmas. I'm actually about to toss up a top level for Boims.

would you be interested in shippy weirdness with the incest duo? I'm interested in all the weird murderous dynamics in their power-hungry quest for rulership. I think there's genuine love there, but it's also very uhhhh problematic in places, and I want to explore all those weird little furrows, the good and the bad. LMK if you'd be interested!
