December 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 / kink 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.

OFFERING
solas
LOOKING FOR
- long term psls/aus exploring lots of character dynamics! this includes fun stuff like ‘what was solas up to for ten years other than being a dumbass’ or stuff inside canon that wasn’t explored.
- any aus are fine with me - rebellion era solas, alternate paths in canon, exploring other outcomes/world states, etc!
- shipping is fine with me! i’m down to ship solas with almost anyone, m/f, m/m (weekes i know why you did it but bisexual solas is special to me) and m/*. this can be any race, not elf locked! i particularly love solas and lavellan, but i also have soft spots for solas/dorian and solas/bull. i’d find it exciting to do solas and emmrich! i pretty much only won’t do romantic solas/cole.
- my favourite other general aus include soulmates, arranged marriage, ‘fix-it’s’, and omegaverse.
- i am gmt and work full time, so pace is a sort of medium-slow!

i have completed veilguard so am happy to discuss with spoilers, but please warn about them for others!

HI GUESS WHO FINISHED JUST A COUPLE DAYS AGO. IT'S ME.

(also no worries if you are not interested but also -- while I was always playing my [Human, male] Inquisitor was 'never romanced anyone' and leaning into 'He had a crush on someone who he wasn't applicable for a romance with' and thinking it would be funny to imply it was Blackwall, in threading with a Rook who asked about Solas he made a funny little quip then basically just gushed about him ... like oh no. Oh no. You had a thing for Solas, you idiot... )

HELLO I AM HERE TO DO THINGS!!! I am down to do the OH NO the thing with Solas!! But also anything else too, whatever you fancy!!

Bless! In retrospect yeah of course the mega nerd probably has a teacher kink like idk why I didn't think of that sooner.

I have been a little dead on my feet from a lot of work lately but hopefully that will be slowing down soon and I'll get weekends again. Got toplevels anywhere I can throw spirit baby and/or Inquisitor at or should I toss some up and link them or something else?

Hello! I have never played Solas/Dorian but the thought is intriguing me now, and wondering how the build up to that would go. I'd be open to exploring that absolute chaos.

I'd be sooo down for it!! Their cattiness but also the two of them building on each other and growing is just SO NEAT TO ME!! I just think they're really cool and would love to play with the dynamics C:

It would be so much but I'm always here for unexpected relationships and bonds forming under stressful circumstances!!

I'm not sure if you poke around on memes but I'm also happy to do things in journals and whatnot just to see how we mesh?

HIIIIIIIIIIIII. Absolutely need to update this girl's journal, christ- But hello! I've got this girlie who spent those ten years of longing for this silly dang man, should you want a Lavellan! ♥ BUT, absolutely no worries if not! Absolutely handshaking you as a fellow Solas rper, aaaand also handshakes regarding those general aus, hello.

I'm CST, but I'm super all for backtagging and slow back and forths, and would adore RPing against mister grim and fatalistic™ should you be interested! I've got some very barebones basics on Aisling here and here, and can absolutely supply more info on her should you want to know more!

Also, unrelated to propping up my Lavellan towards you awkwardly - I wanted to say thank you, as I saw you're using some of the Solas icons I made ages back q_q I've been away from DWRP for quite some time, but I posted them on [community profile] iselia waaay back when. It's honestly touching to see them still floating around in the wild! (I also ngl laughed very hard for one beat b/c the kiss icon I made has this girl in it lkawjfe. FELT OBLIGATED TO OFFER HER AS A JEST, AT THE LEAST)

edit: embarrassed yelling when I go through old inbox stuff here and realize I RP'ed with you in the past, CHRIST, A

But I am absolutely down for anything and everything!! Feel free to hit him on some memes or if you want to throw something at my open post?? IDK I AM JUST EXCITED TO PLAY AROUND WITH THIS LOSER AGAIN
sylaise: (a perfect halo)

[personal profile] sylaise 2024-12-18 12:06 am (UTC)(link)
YOU ARE SO VALID AND REAL and I also plumb forgot, was intensely excited to see a Solas, and then found the comments stashed in the DW inbox and died on a pillar of shame. 10 YEARS INDEED

But omg yes!! That sounds good to me, I'm still easing into DWRP after like. 6 years away, so I'll check out your open post as a good starter! I AM SO EXCITED TO PLAY AROUND WITH THIS LOSER AGAIN AS WELL, I say grinning and waggling my eyebrows

But thank you eee. ;w; I'll try to get some actual like. Veilguard icons set up for her too, or at least some sort of update eventually, wheezing. BUT I AM RUNNING, RUNNING, to this loser man's arms thank uuuuu

AND OH. would it be alright to toss you a friend request via plurk? I can also toss you my discord should that be preferable, should you like any OOC contact/have questions/etc! (If not don't worry lsdkf, just wanted to offer)

Wrong journal but also not?

[personal profile] taleofthe 2024-12-18 10:48 am (UTC)(link)
Look, I'm already planning on tossing both Inquisitor!Tabris and Lavellan at you for shenanigans (as soon as I can prod the brainmeats into writing starters. COME ON, BRAIN. WORK.) but also. Had the thought. (I haven't started Veilguard yet but I Know Things but I'm also winging it XD) What if Hawke comes tumbling out of the Fade somehow when Solas is doing his thing and either stops him from doing The Thing (or makes it less fatal IDK) or ends up being the one to get a fun little mental connection with Solas. Or both.

[personal profile] taleofthe 2024-12-25 10:52 am (UTC)(link)
Brains are SO RUDE. I will 100% add her to my list of folks to fling headlong at your Solas. And in the meanwhile I have her, Lavellan, and Tabris up on some memes should any strike your fancy.

(Tabris: intimate bathing, surprisingly gentle, little intimacies, random scenario, nursed back to health, insomnia, rain, romantasy)

(Hawke: intimate bathing, stray, surprisingly gentle, little intimacies, random scenario, nursed back to health, insomnia, romantasy)

(Lavellan: handholding, intimate bathing, surprisingly gentle, heartbreakers, soulmates, romantasy)

My brain here like 'but what if accidental soulmates' but also omegaverse stuff is a fun time too-

I'm shiptrash, what can I say? I've also got a mage!Lavellan Quiz who absolutely befriended your boy that I can offer up, but I honestly loved the banter with Rook and Solas and want More Interactions!!!!
