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!

UNDYING COURT — a dark academia memloss AU game set in a world of vampires
THE UNDYING COURT
The Undying Court takes place at Castle Courtsheart. There, each of the five vampire Courts (Blue, Red, Gold, Silver, and Black) gather to teach all of the skills vampires have to offer to the new novices that they have chosen. Castle Courtsheart lies at the very center of an unnamed country, surrounded by the Blue, Red, Gold, and Silver Court lands. Although everything is provided for the novices and vampires, Castle Courtsheart has a dark underbelly. It is filled with enthralled human servants, novices of the past who utterly failed their courses. Fearing a similar fate, novices compete to curry favor with the vampires who will turn them. Meanwhile the Black Court guards the gates, standing as a chilling reminder of what happens to those who cross the vampires in charge.
Players may play novices who are learning to become vampires or vampires who are teaching the novices. Characters are encouraged to form strong bonds with one another in order to survive. You never know what—or who—might be lurking just around the corner. In additional to seasonal events hosted by each Court, characters will have to navigate perilous studies at Castle Courtsheart. All the while, they may start to have strange dreams as they regain memories and lost traits, rediscovering parts of themselves they never knew existed in the first place.

La Maison des Lettres | a supernatural friendly panfandom noir memloss game
The Maison des Lettres traced its roots back to the gritty portside alleys of Marseille, birthplace of the Fournier Patriarch, a man who wove an empire for his bloodline. The Fournier name oozed menace, and its sinister tendrils reached far beyond the fog-laden streets of Paris, extending their grip across the cobblestones of foreign lands. A decision born of ambition and treachery saw the patriarch dispatch his offspring to Compass City, a crucible of the American dream teeming with French émigrés.
In a mere decade, the younger Monsieur Fournier cast his dark shadow over the heart of Compass City's French Quarter. His name was whispered in backroom dealings, and his influence cast an inescapable web. The Cabaret, with its seductive allure, was the center of it all; unless one yearned to keep their conscience pristine and their hands unsoiled, that is. It was in this den of debauchery that DuBois, like a fallen angel, tumbled into Fournier's clutches.
Now, Fournier's boys peddle Clarté like snake oil to the high and mighty, from the mayor himself to the gilded wives of the city's elite. The dark underbelly of Compass City's French Quarter hides a secret, and Clarté flows through its veins like a narcotic river, staining the souls of all who dare to indulge.
Welcome to Compass City, where everyone is either fighting to save their soul or looking to sell it.
TDM starts on the 26th. Apps are received on a rolling basis starting February 1st. Looking for a list-keeping moderator.
TDM is OPEN!!

Sweet Acres: A Sci-Fi Psychological Horror Game
SMALL GAMES
Sticks & Bones - Where the forest has teeth
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?
KENOS - A PANFANDOM FACTION GAME
You have been saved from OBLIVION...
Welcome to Kenos!Kenos is a panfandom, faction-based game incorporating themes of corruption, redemption, bonds, and self-actualization. Characters now find themselves in a strange sea of stars littered with floating islands. Kenos is one of the last vestiges of a dying universe, and whether through purpose or simply chance, your character’s soul has been plucked from a crumbling world, and asked to make a choice. Will you fight to restore your world, or build something new?
Kenos invites players who are interested in a lore-heavy, and conflict-dense game to check us out. We are a plot heavy, medium-paced game, that is sex-friendly but not focused. We reward player initiative and exploration, and have an active discord for plotting!
Kenos is a semi-private game, and we are inviting new members to check us out! We ask all potential applicants to pass a player screening prior to applying, to receive an invitation to the game. No player invite is necessary!
Our TDM was posted yesterday and you can find it here! You do not need to submit to player screening to try us out! We're excited to have you check us out, and come play with us!

May your lantern always stay lit.
