May 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.

I mean, look who else is in the room. I said comparatively!!

Custom work, one of the few specialists in making gunblades. I had his shop called Saint James Arms because of his coat.

I played Reno for almost a decade I think? The Reno-Seifer pipeline is real imo. I could never find a Rude that stuck around sadly, twas the curse.

Genesis is fun tho, I dabbled with Angeal for a bit but he didn't stick long.

I can kind of see Cloud actually liking Seifer, in that.... Seifer isn't intimidated by him and Cloud doesn't have to worry about him needing rescuing.

If you ever need a Rude, I've played him since 2002. I love the dude. Have an account here.

Custom work that is beautiful and functional. He'd be famous.

Cloud and Seifer would just get each other in a look.

I have Reno too, just been an age since I've played him.

I also headcanon that he doesn't put his actual name on it so it's... Not impacted by his history. Seifer's an actually smart guy who got screwed by Destiny and I will die on that hill.

They have a very weirdly exclusive club of "blond guys who's lives were hit with a wrecking ball by both a military socioeconomic complex and a silver haired asshole and don't know how to unpack that"

Cloud would just appreciate having someone he didn't have to explain his shit to who would join him in "hold my beer and watch this" antics with monsters.

Agreed on the Seifer take! Dude is in a category of bad guys who were wildly misled and could recover for themselves with time. I love playing those.

There is also small arguments for 'mind control sorta happened as a pawn for said silver haired fiend attempting to destroy the world' between cloud and Seifer.

God those two would try so hard to one up each other.

L o o k.

He, by all normal metrics that weren't set up to fail him via nitpicking, would have passed the SeeD exam three times over. He technically successfully commanded an entire army and a Garden and more than just survived Odin while in the worst state of mental breakdown. He's only failing was because he had to in order for the time loop to function.

I have... Basically a whole essay about that and how he's technically a Byronic Hero in a literary sense, and that's the Romantic philosophy he's on about not the Love Thing.

Imo on Cloud's end it's... Mostly not intentional, he's just both kind of bad with people skills so this is obviously how you relate with people duh and doesn't meet a lot of people who can keep up with him in a fight outside of like ... Vincent.

I mean it was SUPER clear he meant Byronic. I did a long essay analysis of squall and Seifer as conforming to the Jungiam shadow archetype. Where on can only see the potential and success of squall by the reflection of the failure and fall of Seifer.

Cloud has issues. And that's okay.

Yeah, well, we all know people aren't always good at recognizing these things. I would read it though!!

Cloud has many issues, and the world does not stay saved long enough to do much about them other than wave.

But yes, I am definitely down to thread sometime, see what happens between Seifer and Cloud or still Awua if that's gonna be more your speed!

Oh god no! It's definitely better to imagine the paper than it is to read it.

Honestly either Cloud or Aqua would bring me such joy. And if you ever need anyone for your Seifer I have a fleet.

I suppose the question is.... does Seifer deserve materia and a motorcycle ride (or Cloud desrve GF's and Geopolitical Nonsense) or does he deserve the power of friendship and the threat of Atlantica (and potentially the mindfuck that is Leon and Radiant Garden)?

I've been wanting to toss Seifer at things, so I'm totally down if you've got someone you've been wanting to bounce off of a Seifer!

God just imagining a gunblade plus motorcycle is insane. But cloud definitely deserves GFs to further enhance him being a super soldier. (God imagine a junction on top of materia and EVERYTHING ELSE. Cloud would be insanely powerful).

But the hilarity of Seifer going 'that isn't Squall, he talks to much and needs a haircut' is funny too. (I think he'd take Atlantica by storm)

My muselist is here. Tell me if anyone at all looks tempting.

Aqua it is! I can see her... accidentally picking him up after visiting FF8 World via getting followed because That's Totally A Sorceress WTF or something and now it's a whole thing.

Also... why is the mental image of poor Genesis having to deal with someone almost as annoying as him in wanting to spar and talk about literature so funny?

Oh man, that would be so good. And Seifer getting to deal with a doppleganger would be hilarious. Seifer so confused. Or perhaps his world gets consumed in darkness and Aqua runs into him in twilight town or something? Either way, him and aqua would be so fun.

Hilariously I don't get to explore that because the game I have Seifer in... I also have Genesis in. Lol

just gonna casually swap to her journal :D

Weirder things have happened, Seifer. It's probably fine. Also, your world falling in to Darkness is not your fault. Probably.

Twilight Town definitely works, it probably replaced Traverse Town as the place folks who don't get swallowed by darkness when a world falls end up. Also, it happening during Time Compression explains like... Selphie being in Destiny Islands as a kid, and Leon being almost 40.

Aqua's advise is to not think about it too hard, otherwise you're just going to get a headache and go crazy. The rat running the restaurant is actually food handling certified.

I imagine she was in Balamb World trying to stop the fall but... well. She's only one person and did not expect that kind of time magic going on.

Well, Genesis deserves someone to harass him just as much as he harassed Sephiroth. And Seifer deserves materia.

Oh come on, Leon gives off solid 30s energy. And wow I forgot traverse town was the one. Yes. There. And with compression Seifer could arrive there before Leon even. While Leon's odd in Radiant Garden settling into a life there.

And yes, he would think too hard. There are talking animals. This is BS. That could be so fun! (At least he wouldn't assume she's a sorceress because of her eyes).

Omg... he'll assume Ultimecia was a shadow because of the yellow/gold eyes.

Genesis would be so confused to be the sephiroth. And Seifer would be a menace with materia. Bet he wouldn't change his gunblade for materia though. Purist.

She can explain some of it, but she was kind of in ~~hell~~ the World of Darkness for a decade and missed some things.

Aqua wouldn't be sure he's wrong about that, being consumed by darkness does give you those gold eyes and white hair after all as well as some... beastial traits sometimes.

Of course not, it's just a lot less swiss-cheese memories inducing than Junctioning to use some magic... because throwing that back at Genesis is fun.

Ooooh we could do it post that. Omg Seifer just showing up SO MANY YEARS LATE. So confused. Baby Fuu and Rai. (Maybe baby Seifer isn't there and Roxas got to deal with some other jerk.)

But seriously Seifer is gonna have too much to think about. (Take him to the moogles to learn)

Ah Seifer would probably enjoy Magic without that cost.

Yes, Excellent, and there's... well, he can help try to save worlds if he wants to, he's already along for the ride at this point and last time she tried to stop a stubborn guy from doing things Xehanort happened to them.

There's moogles and Fairy Godmother, she's... not sure that bringing him to Yen Sid would be the smartest move right away.

Exactly! Basically free magic, a guy to pick physical and mental fights with, nobody caring who he is... it's a pretty sweet world he's landed in.

He'd be annoyed over only keyblades being valid for world saving.

Seifer would butt heads with Yen Sid, yes.

God, Seifer in soldier.

That can be arranged, Seifer. Also there's enough things that don't strictly need keyblades to solve.

Yeaaaah I imagine that ShinRa would be interested in either acquiring or neutralizing Seifer, especially if he took out some monsters after getting dropped in via Time Compression lol.

It's sad that he'd probably do rather well in SOLDIER, even if they skip the Mako on him. They don't mind folks taking initiative during missions to see things properly sorted out.

That's a fair point. He'd have kicked Disney villain ass with no hesitation.

Seifer could take the mako. I believe in him. But yes, shinra would have a LOT of interest. Honestly soldier and being of interest to first classes would protect him more from Hojo.

He could also probably deal with nobodies just fine, possibly even the unversed. It's the heartless that need specifically a keyblades if I recall.

Yeaaaah, and Seifer is smart enough to catch on to that being a safe spot for him. I'm also giggling a little at him just.... "Un-junctioning" the Jenova/S-Cells in that process, like.. .. no thank you on that, he's got better to put in that slot thanks (I headcanon that he's got Cerberus to junction, picked the good boy up in Galbadia Garden). Still got the Mako going on, not that he really needed it considering Odin but.... Being able to take a building to the face is kinda cool.

Oh I always forget about the unversed. Idk how though. They were visually pleasing.

One could argue his knight status let him fuck up odin. But hyne that's a hilarious idea about the cells.

Just squiggly little guys!!

I'm just imagining Seifer just going "...have you tried un-junctioning that shit?" To Genesis like it's the most obvious thing ever when/if the whole degredation thing starts.

Also! Where are you wanting to thread these?

So squiggly.

Someone teach Seifer what genetic alteration is and how it's not the same as a junction. (though maybe you could unjunction Jenova's influence...)

I do have an open post on Seifer's journal. Well, an overflow. Might let us start something.

I mean, yeah basically? Which... GF's impact your physical attributes and resistances, Jenova does the same thing, ergo.... squaring the circle on "just unjunction that duh" as the solution.

I'll toss something in yours, and I've one on Seifer's too!
