March EMP Meme

[enablemeplz]

ENABLEMEPLZ meme goes up on the last 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. ➤ ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding (no font size > size 4 or 3 "big" tags, no banners, no blinking text, no obnoxious tables, no sparklies, no 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 frozen and/or deleted. FOR CHARACTER ADS: ➤ Put up an ad about the characters you are offering. For PSL/1-on-1 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/1-on-1 section, where you post the 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. ➤ 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 screened. 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 screened. MOD CONTACT: If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please!

hi! i love hiccup (i've played astrid before actually) and i thiiiiiiink subnautica meets all your requirements! it is dw based, the pace is slow/medium, it's comm-based and people will backtag/don't mind prose vs brackets (i am not sure which you mean via flexible with tags) and is smaller - it has a 55 player cap and we're at like 25 or something rn. it is an underwater (kind of, they have an island and things now) plot-based exploration game in which players can submit missions of just about anything and get mod responses to further things - for an example of that, here is our march ooc post so you can see what kind of update we get monthly. this is the mission acceptances thread for march so you can glance at that specifically if you like, too!

also, toothless would be allowed i'm p sure! so bonus.

ac is 1 post with at least 10 comments (5 if prose) OR 15 comments spread between 2 threads. there is also a "show of contribution" section but this is very easy to meet and can be as simple as making people dinner or cleaning the base or making a chore chart or basically whatever you want! lmk if you have any questions.

Not gonna lie, I have been eyeballing the game since it opened, but it has been a while since I came back to it.

I should have verified that I'm flexible with boomerang tagging or back tagging. And I suppose it does apply to Prose vs Brackets as well haha. My bad there!

Is the TDM still active, or would you recommend waiting until the next one? I'd love to try out the setting a bit!

[parodeity]

oh okay! then yes we have both boomerangers and back taggers, and people will pretty much do whatever for as long as needed - everyone has always been very welcoming oocly and icly in my experience, so! i only play dave there currently but have had other characters previously.

this tdm is still pretty active i'd say! i know some zeldas have gone up in the past few days. i'd personally be happy to tag with you if you posted to it, as well, and am sure other people would as well since i know some people still are keeping an eye on it!

i think it'd be a good fit for a character like hiccup who is Proactive and likes to do things - being lower tech isn't too bad (i did rapunzel among my. various other 2ndaries, and she is actually the person who taught everyone else how to make cheese, which they wasted. months. trying to do? SOMETIMES the base is full of aimless nerds, for example: it took them 4 months to install more than one bathroom?) and i think it'd be easy for him to get up to date on anything like that/the main thing that gets you further in sub is just having a character willing to get out there and explore and do things!

[drekisal]

Ah great!! I might just toss something up there soon then.

And gosh yes!! That's what I want to exploit the most out of Hiccup. He's such an engineer nerd, he'd get along well in a setting like that. Plus I'm sure he'd love to learn more about advanced technology!

Thank you so much for the info!

[parodeity]

absolutely no problem, lmk if you have any further questions! i'll be sure to keep an eye out for a tdm toplevel. c: re: engineering i am 100% sure he'd have an easy time finding people willing to teach him, or the ai who runs the base, URSULA, would be willing to give him texts or whatever? all the characters are pretty willing to help one another out on the whole/share skills, so.
