April 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.


The meme is for fiction-based RP only (with the only exception being involvement of fictionalized historical figures or historical settings.) Celeb or RPF RP advertising, whether for games or players, is not allowed.

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.

Supernatural: Claire Novak
The Expanse: Naomi Nagata
Until Dawn: Jessica Riley
Potentially other Characters/Canons.

✪ Seeking


FOR SAM:
Mostly looking for cast mates from across the Marvel canons (including MCU, XMCU, Netflix MCU, comics Marvel), but open for some cross-canon shenanigans, too.
I love gen, I also love shipping. For shipping, particular favourites are Bucky, Steve, Nat, Joaquin, but I'm open to most cast mates over 25 with the exception of most villains/heavy antagonists for character reasons. Also happy to do gen with all of these characters of course, and I'd love to see Sam connect/re-connect with other cast mates beyond the mentioned ones.
I typically play him Post TFATWS into Cap 4, but I'm canon point flexible. Current wishlist:
- My entire kingdom for a chance to ever play off a comics Misty Knight, since I doubt Sam's gonna get his love interest in the MCU ever at this point lol
- post CA:TWS era, looking for Bucky in Europe and potentially making some connections with him there. shippy or gen, fill in the blanks, build their bond
- Post Civil War era stuff on the run from the government with Steve, Nat, either or both. Gen or shippy.
- Post Endgame era, from 'people live/stay' AUs to dealing with canon choices/deaths.
- Anything and everything surrounding The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, especially with Bucky or Joaquin.
- Fill in the gaps between TFATWS and Cap 4 with any cast mates
- Post Cap 4 and speculative future stuff that I'm keeping vague here for spoiler reasons ;)
- Past and Future Avenger team shenanigans (gen or shippy)
- Multiverse/Timetravel/AU shenanigans of a variety of sorts. For AUs, I love me some soulmate stuff, alternate timelines/canon divergence, and much more.
- purely for shippy/smutty options: See permissions/kinks HERE. I'm happy to also explore multiple partner dynamics/OT3s/etc. I love exploring power dynamics with Sam leaning on the more subby side of things. the man's in desperate need of someone who cares for him enough to take the reins from him sometime.

FOR ELEVEN
Cast mates for deeper CR are always welcome for any canon point, from the kids to the older teens to especially Hopper for family feels.
- I'm not super invested in shipping with Eleven, but age appropriate stuff with Mike or Max is cute.
- Cross Canon is a big Wish, especially with Dad types from other canons, or similar Power Types to her. She's easily spliced into canons like Marvel/MCU, XMCU and Co, or into more supernatural or even apocalyptic leaning stuff.
- Found Family!

FOR GAMORA
I'd love to explore some mild canon AU shenanigans, especially post Endgame when the "wrong" Gamora gets stranded in the present day MCU timeline after Thanos' defeat and goes on the run. Fresh out of being used as Thanos' weapon, I'd love to explore themes of found family and learning to be a person again for this manipulated assassin who has been tortured and physically altered against her will.
- Other violent but ultimately caring, protective, loyal types very welcome - think Bucky, Frank Castle and Co.
- Other characters with similar themes like Bucky, Nat, Yelena, Carol.
- Guardians for exploration of "they find her before GOTG3 events" shenanigans.
- Gentler/Kinder heroes like Sam and Co would be lovely too.
- Can be gen, can be shippy.
- I love the idea of her being stranded on Earth and being taken under the wink of someone who can help her on this very fresh path of curbing the violence and learning to people, though.
- Emotional intensity is a must, whether it goes gen or shippy.

✪ Other

- happy to do things on memes first, also open to PSLs/musebox shenanigans.
- I live in Europe, so pacing is usually medium by design. happy to backtag
- I prefer brackets, but I'm happy to do prose/match format
- I prefer meatier tags. Not everything has to be a novel, of course
- for shippy/smutty options: I'm happy to thread smut (with or without plot), but I'm also happy to ftb if preferred
- happy to talk via DM, plurk [plurk.com profile] inkcharm or Discord: inkcharm

Hello!

[personal profile] secst 2025-04-13 03:31 am (UTC)(link)
You know I LOVE our shenanigans with Ginny and Sam and Bucky (and would love to maybe explore Bucky/Ginny/Sam too, if we can find a Bucky who'd be game to join us), but I ALSO need to toss Amanda here at Naomi. Whether it's AUing Amanda and Alien Isolation into The Expanse, or AUing Naomi and The Expanse into the Alien!verse.

Also I kind of want to toss Drasa from The Gorge at some of yours. I mean, I want to toss all of mine at all of yours always. But especially Drasa.
