PROBLEMS/SUGGESTIONS

[enablemeplz]

If anyone crosses the line or there's some other issue or suggestion you want to leave, comment here.

NOTE: I live in PST. On Saturdays I sometimes work day shifts or do things when I'm off, where I don't get home until a pretty reasonable time of 5-6 pm in the evening. If I don't get to the post before I go out, I will make sure I post it when I'm home. If it's a rare day I work evening shift, and don't have time to post it before my shift, the post may go up super late (in which case I don't mind people poking to make sure it's going up.)

I have a recurring entry on google calendar that sends me reminders to do the post. Guaranteeing a set day but a flexible time the post goes up will allow me to reliably post EMP basically forever, regardless of my RL situation. As such, I will no longer be answering "will the post go up?" questions unless it's past 10 PM EST. After that, I'll let people know what's up if I'm running late. (Or act on the reminder if I forgot).

Yes that is exactly what I'm looking for. The game posts can be tricky if the game doesn't put up a thread. It feels weird to do one for just a specific cast. So one geared directly toward cast recruitment would be awesome.

That's a good point. Not all games do a game ad that players can asked for "wanted" characters on.

Okay, so next meme I'll do a trial run of a "Find A Castmate" thread. Since players looking for games with certain casts can mention it in the player ads, I'll set the "Find a castmate" thread up for people looking for characters to join the casts of their games. I think using a similar setup to the PSL thread would be easiest. People can put the canons in the subject titles, and put the games, who they play personally, what characters are already in the cast, and what characters they're looking for.

To keep the posts from getting too long, though (since cast lists can get a little long) I'll probably set it up so people use a little form, just to keep it a short format, but there'll be a section where people can talk about the cast or the game to give potential players info.

We'll see how it goes! I'll test it out, and if it catches on, it can continue to be a thread used in future EMP memes.

Thanks! I'm really excited to see how this addition fairs! The form sounds like a great idea too.
