April EMP Meme
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. MOD CONTACT: If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please!

| ➤ 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. |
No More Heroes (+ a few others) - cross-canon loved!
Shinobu Jacobs | No More Heroes
[About]:
I typically play her at her 30 year old canonpoint in NMH3, sometime post canon (since she's in a coma for most of the game anyway after getting both of her arms... ripped off :) ), but open to playing from earlier canonpoints too.
But basic character summary is that she's a former assassin prizefighter type that saw the light after getting her ass beat in a fight. And then about a decade later is now... only a part-time assassin! But only because she wants to rid the world of truly terrible people and use the money she gets from it to keep her dojo running where she helps kids from a bad neighborhood try to get on a better path.
Personality-wise, she's kind of a modern day samurai type. She's got a pretty intense kind of personality between how stoic, straightforward and loyal she can be, but also she never stops bantering/shit-talking if you get her going. Strong sense of justice, even if she still engages in some morally questionable ways of dealing with it. More of a type to jump into action and think on her feet (and she's very good at that, at least) rather than try to plan anything ever. More romantically-inclined than she probably first appears. Is simultaneously her biggest fan AND her biggest critic.
[Looking For]:
Always happy to run into the remaining five or so people that actually still play from NMH, but I don't expect much and am just as happy to play with anyone from cross-canon!
• Enemies/rivals to friends (to lovers is optional) or just frenemies. Pretty much the quickest way one can get respect out of her is to keep up with her in a fight.
• Action team-ups. She'll probably insist she can do everything by herself, but if you don't want to write PVP fight (and honestly, I get it), PVE is just as fine! Let's do some dumbass action movie shit!
• People who will banter with her!
• Stubborn, extroverted characters that can get her to loosen up a little. Or at least hang out and do something besides training all the time.
• Younger characters she can mentor over. Whether it's to teach your character to fight or try to convince them that the path of vengeance is a REALLY BAD IDEA from her own experience.
• Slowburn romances. 25+ men only for this (younger is fine, if we're going with earlier canonpoints for her). She'll be a bit more cautious after her previous failed crushes and/or lame duck relationships, but she really just want to go out on a date, man!
• April 22nd is my headcanon birthday for her (couldn't decide if she was an Aries or Taurus, so I went with a cusp date)! Let's do some birthday shenanigans!
[preferences]:
• Prefer action to prose, but I'm willing to do prose. It might just take me a little longer.
• Typically I'll just hang out on memes, but I'm down to post in PSLs in journals or whatever.
• I'll typically tag once a day unless it's been a Week at work. There's a small chance I boomerang if it's a text thread. Will backtag anything into oblivion, though, so don't even worry about it if you're having your own rough week. :)
• I'm pretty much available most nights after 7:30 PM central time to probably around 11, but I might be more sporadic if I'm REALLY into a video game. Got every other weekend off though (with the Friday before and Monday after on the weekends I don't have off).
[Other Characters]:
Even if I am mostly looking for more threads for Shinobu, I've got these ladies I can offer for anyone that's got their own ideas! Keep in mind I'm rustier with these girls though, so threads will probably run slower. Also, with the exception of Laughing Beauty (she's a ho), probably no smut for these girls.
