October 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 fonts and other html that make ads super long, 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 canon 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.

There is a "Pairings You Want to Play" section, where you can ask for castmates or crosscanon you'd like to ship with. Please format this with "[YOUR CANON] seeking [CASTMATE/OTHER CANON (if crosscanon)/SEE DESCRIPTION (if a general character type)]. For the actual text of the ad you must use the "Pairings You Want to Play" form provided at the bottom of this post so that these ads don't get huge. Alongside castmates and crosscanon, you can choose to ask for OCs or general character types as well. Try not to get too wordy and please don't outline entire scenarios.

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.

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.

Tighnari | Genshin Impact
Aventurine | Honkai Star Rail

Claude von Riegan | Fire Emblem Three Houses
Corrin ( f ) | Fire Emblem Fates
Cloud Strife | Final Fantasy VII
Viera ( M ) WoL | Final Fantasy XIV


Looking For/Preferences

Scenarios: AUs of just about any variety since I love world building, Canon Divergence, H/C, Fix-Its. Honestly, I am looking more for Shipping than Gen at this point because, I admit, that I am focused on things that will just help me chill and relax. Smut is an open possibility, but not a deal breaker since I love the build up and general chemistry
Tag Style: Defaulting to brackets - love paragraphs but my brain is a little tired at the moment
Tighnari: Cyno, Alhaitham, Kaveh - I'm not really caught up on Genshin Impact since about midpoint Fontaine, but I've really missed playing Tighnari. He's a great character and I love writing him put out by other peoples' actions while also fussing about them.
Aventurine: Sunday - With some of the leaks coming out, that could be fun to play with. Also up for just exploring this dynamic in general.
Byleth: Claude, Seteth, Sylvain, Dimitri - This character is a voice test for me, since I've been on a replay streak. Generally speaking, I can shift around which route to take Byleth from but I wouldn't be doing Crimson Flower route. Since I haven't finished 3 Hopes, I'd only feel comfortable with 3 Houses.
Claude: Byleth (f), Flayn - Also voice testing, but he fits more of my "character type" than others. Golden Deer route.
Corrin: Xander, Niles, Takumi - My preference is to play Corrin/Kamui from Revelations. While not the usual sort of character I play, she has always been just a nice break for me.
Cloud: Aerith, Vincent, Sephiroth - I have a lot of different AU ideas for any of these ships. My preference is a ACC/DoC Cloud since he is more stable, but a younger Cloud is always available as well. My ship preferences here are just the ones I am most interested in writing, not an exhaustive list of all of the ones I enjoy.
WoL: Honestly... I'm very open to just about anyone - even other WoLs - when it comes to shipping. However, I am not opposed to Gen Threading either. The things that I generally like to explore with him tends to be the recovery of "self" since he is *very Viera* and struggles with opening up. Found Family. If you want more information on him in particular before considering, feel free to ask.

Hello hello! So I do have a bunch of Hoyos I'd be happy to launch at you if you so desire (muselist for reference), but I had to hit you up about three houses.

I do have a Byleth and I love Claudeleth, however, have you considered the potential for Claude and Dorothea? I just think we were robbed of interactions with them. She's so smart, charming, and worldly, but also really kind (except to obnoxious nobles ofc), and I have all kinds of ideas about trade between Adrestia and Almyra and how that would affect her perception of things.

me, looking at Argenti on that list because hello I interested.

as for the rest... with me not playing from 3 houses prior, i'd feel more comfortable with what i know. now that doesn't mean i wouldn't be open to the idea in the future or when i start to get comfortable.
