February 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.

i also play tem so i don't have anyone to offer you from ot2 but i've got some talkative loser scholar nerd (i got to play with a therion for a bit a little while ago.... i will laugh if you're the same one......) and a couple COTC kids if that was something you were interested in doing! c:
no subject
and CotC kids?! o: who do you play from there? i'm not entirely caught up on story content there as i'm a bit slow about getting through things b/c i can only take so much heartbreak at once lmao, but i'll get there ... eventually!
no subject
but yay hi it's so nice to meet you then!!! i'd be happy to do something with cyrus and therion with you like anytime lol. i usually prefer gen stuff too so \o\
also the heartbreak thing... real... im very very slowly playing through the final arc in COTC for the exact same reason which checks out that i play rondo. LMAO. and i have an acct for stead too! the white haired stinky cleric pipeline is too real ♥
no subject
Rondo!!! oh man... sdkjfl THAT SURE DOES CHECK OUT... also STEAD... i love him so much. that pipeline is incredibly real sdjkfljk i had Stead as my ringbearer for a while (because just imagine his commentary and ... creative solutions to problems) before i finally managed to get Odette, and it's been her since because I love her but also because I think it's incredibly funny to imagine her spending all this time running all over Orsterra getting wrapped up in all these realm saving and world saving adventures and finally when she's settled down for some peace and quiet to study geology for a bit, Cyrus shows up like heyyyyy i'm on a quest about a book-- No. Absolutely not. She is retired. Consulting only.
Thinking about Rondo, though... I've always wondered what his thoughts are on uh, everything Heathcote and Cordelia were dealing with and setting up to get the Dragonstones back. Did he even know? Did he forswear all family ties when he joined the Knights Ardante? Did Cordelia never, like, write to him? Was Heathcote like no we can't involve the Knights Ardante in this? Maybe this is answered somewhere and I just missed it / forgot.
a-anyway, it's nice to meet you too! c: do you have anything specific you're craving? i have some ideas for things! lessons of some sort (magic, thief skills), traveling looking for another artifact, variations on specific chapter events... or even something else! Also, do you prefer to keep communications via dw journals or do you prefer something like discord or plurk or w/e? I'm good whichever way, but I figured I ought to ask!
no subject
also me!!!! re: rondo!!! i know rondo was the one who was like "hey you should get a thief to find the dragonstones" which i thought was kind of a cute little tie in but beyond that?? who knows! i'm sure he and cordelia write each other letters... they have to... siblings ;______;. have you seen this btw it makes me laugh so bad every time.
anyway!!! oogh. cotc comes and beats me up in my feelings for no reason all the time (and i don't know what i expected, ot1 and ot2 did the exact same damn thing. nothing says "hey get ready to suffer" like realizing you're on the chapter 3 for the travelers and having to prepare yourself for a world of pain.) listen i also want to talk about these things grips your hands. the brainrot is terminal.
RP wise i love all of these ideas, absolutely. magic lessons with cyrus ?? thief lessons with therion? (cyrus like we could steal this thing but first let me tell you about the historical implications of this specific door lock on this specific door--) post interactions like Big Emotional Moments are another one of my favorite things to do, too. let's talk about your feelings, therion, dont you want to talk about your feelings,
and we can absolutely connect w/ disco and plurk yes!!! my handle on both is protags ♥
no subject
OH NO THIS COMIC I HADN'T SEEN IT BEFORE i was cackling until the struck out headcanon of Rondo continuing to grow his hair out like Sazantos... and now im-- it's cute to imagine Rondo doing that but also [having a lot of feelings about Sazantos] is a state of being. cotc is like 'what if every day was chapter 3 except sometimes we're nice and you can have some chapter 4s but you gotta fight for it' but then juxtaposed with the utter delightful nonsense of the caits or the alpaca girl and sheep boy saga. They knew what they were doing, adding both playable Bargello (and Sonia ;-; ) and Meowgello in the same patch.
the brain rot never ends!!IM STILL SITTING HERE THO LIKe what do you MEAN it was ROndo's idea!! I've been blaming Heathcote this whole time. I'm going to continue to blame Heathcote for going you know what, Sir Rondo, that is an excellent idea. Lady Cordelia, I shall arrange it at once.
Later, Cordelia, watching Heathcote set up traps: but what if we just asked nicel--
Heathcote, pretending he's not having fun making this as difficult as possible: absolutely not, my lady. first, we must test them. and then we must have collateral to ensure they'll come back
anyway, i shall send you friend request and then we can figure out where to start as therion draws 25 instead of talking about his feelings-- my disco is lahabread and plurk is wildzubat.
