January 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!

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.

Blue Beetle/DCEU
no subject
I haven't actually seen Blue Beetle yet, but I'm fixing that at this very moment.Wow, I did not expect this movie to be so fun and full of emotions. I am 1000% up for tossing these two together if you're interested. The dichotomy between their family lives alone would make for such excellent character exploration.no subject
I was thinking we could either do something like smashing universes together, and SHIELD picks him up after he creates that ruckus at the end of the movie, or he just gets spotted bopping around in orbit by that space tower Fury's got now and Daisy's Space Team gets called in to deal with it, or I'm open to any ideas if you've got them!
no subject
Those are both great options! I especially like the idea of SHIELD picking him up after the ruckus. There's also the option of universe-hopping, which tends to be my go-to if someone doesn't know AoS because Daisy's experiences make different timelines and universes pretty easy to swallow. But I love that you know the show, so few people do, and that means we have all the Options.
no subject
Alright it's a plan! I'll probably just end up plopping Jaime/Kord Industries right into the AOS Timeline!MCU now that I think about it, Kord Industries has pretty big Roxxon Corporation energy and I'll just handwave them in as either a subsidiary or a competitor or something lol, because otherwise Blue Beetle doesn't have any ties to the wider DCEU yet. Did you have any preference for where they are with the SHIELD pickup process for when I write up a starter? Like, is Daisy one of the first people to talk to him when he gets brought in after he explains himself, or would you prefer that they meet later after he's already been around a little bit and is trying to figure out how to work with SHIELD? (Probably in more of a Deathlok-style capacity than as an agent himself.)
no subject
Oooh, good call on the Roxxon connection, those are definitely similar vibes! Hmm, as for where to be in the pickup process... I think meeting later might work well? He could have been briefed already on how SHIELD works with powered assets (much better in the later years than the early ones, lucky for him!) and how he can be on their payroll if he's the hero type or on their shitlist if he's more of a villain, and then Daisy can show up to help with the particulars.
no subject
I wrote something up over here, let me know if you need anything in the setup changed and I can edit real quick!
no subject
I'll hopefully get a reply to you tomorrow if work doesn't eat me.My hopes were dashed and work did very much eat me this week. But there is finally a tag in your inbox, and I'm excited for things to come!
no subject
I'm only really familiar with Jaime from DC animated and comics so far, but I have a post-crisis Wonder Woman here who would absolutely love to meet him! Established hero meets enthusiastic new up and comer, please?
I can also offer two comic-based Birds of Prey in the forms of Lady Blackhawk/Zinda Blake or Huntress/Helena Bertinelli. Zinda would absolutely adore Jaime and Helena needs a big family to love her!
If any of these strike your fancy, lmk!
no subject
And I'd love to thread with either! I will admit that I only know Huntress from the Birds of Prey movie version which I would imagine is not completely accurate to comics haha but still! Maybe we can start with Wonder Woman, and let me know the journals of the other two and I'll try to hit them up if I spot them on a meme that looks fun? (Or really hit me with whoever you're feeling the most at the moment, I'm not picky!!)
no subject
I hope you enjoy the end of the show. I really think the last season is one of the better seasons. They ended on a high point for sure. I look forward to continuing our thread and any more. If there's anything you want to ever talk about or anything, I'm PM friendly, so feel free to let me know!
(I also have a couple MCU characters if you were interested in them as well.)
no subject
And I'm definitely gonna PM you to gush after I finish watching, I don't have any friends who know Titans so I've just been here in the void having too many thoughts and feelings about it.
(Ooh who do you play from the MCU?? I'm interested in everyone, not only the characters I listed!!)
