April EMP Meme

ENABLEMEPLZ

meme goes up on the last 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.

ABSOLUTELY NO obnoxious coding (no font size > size 4 or 3 "big" tags, no banners, no blinking text, no obnoxious tables, no sparklies, no 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 frozen and/or deleted.

FOR CHARACTER ADS:

Put up an ad about the characters you are offering. For PSL/1-on-1 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/1-on-1 section, where you post the canons 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.

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 screened.

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 screened.

THE WITCHER @ LOSTCARNIVAL

[personal profile] whattaprick 2017-04-30 06:11 pm (UTC)(link)
[game]: Lost Carnival
[fandom]: The Witcher
[game's current cast]: Lambert
[who I play]: ... Lambert!
[wanted]: The obvious choices are the usual suspects at the Wolf School: Geralt, Eskel, Vesemir, Ciri. Sorceresses would make his life difficult, therefore I would derive great amusement from it: Triss Merigold, Yennefer of Vengerberg, and Keira Metz (though he won't recognize her due to canon point). Similarly, 'he has probably never met them but I think they would be interesting in this setting' include: Dandelion, Olgierd, Dettlaff, Regis.
[game info]: Lost Carnival is a panfandom game where characters can either voluntarily sign up for a contract with a faerie Ringmaster or be tricked into committing themselves into service for a year and a day. Over the course of their stay, triggered by events, residents have the potential to gain physical transformations, gradually becoming something different as the magic soaks into their bodies. But it's worth it, isn't it, if it means a chance to see new worlds ... or change your fate?

More information about the game here! Much of the game's focus is exploring the new worlds the Carnival comes to rather than playing out actual performances. Game tone is best described as 'shenanigans with potential for serious character development.' IC:OOC day ratio is 1:2, and there's usually a new world to visit every month. This month's world is based on Reboot (yes, that reboot). Current TDM thread is here if you want to give it a go!

For potential castmates: I play primarily based off Lambert's characterization and the portrayal of the world in the Witcher 3, supplemented by book and early canon that doesn't run directly contradictory to the game (e.g. in the books monsters are 'slowly disappearing' but in the game Geralt's up to his armpits in the things) but the Witcher is a new canon for me and I still have a lot of blind spots in the lore. Lambert's actually taken just prior to anything that happens in the Witcher 3 -- so he has little to no idea what's going on with the main storyline! I don't have any concerns about him being spoiled about his future and I enjoy playing with alternate timelines/events because I find they make for interesting character discussion and conflict. :'D I'm technically taking a hiatus this month due to family, but I'm happy to answer any questions.
