June 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.

THERE ARE SO MANY TURTLES - it's a sickness I swear. Watch me pick up more.

OH YES I have been enjoying playing this nerd again and have played 'hogs in the past as it was the first fandom for this old timer /waggles cane again

I actually don't know anything about this game! I saw that it was invite only so I didn't check it out, since I really don't know anyone on DWRP anymore. It sounds really cool though! I'll have to read up on the navigation to get the nitty gritty but the premise sounds pretty fun.

Oh, so it's cool with like, different versions or personal takes on the characters picked up? That's pretty neat - I'm used to people being like 'canon only' in old places so it's nice to see that like, you're able to play an older Donnie. You know, who should be fretted at.

Because like, I could play either Raph, really, but I also have an older version or two that's kind of headcanoned for alternate paths but that's usually frowned upon. So it's nice to hear that people are able to kind of twist character experiences and see what happens. I love that kind of stuff - characters having to deal with characters is so much fun.

OH BOY ALTERNATES weeeeeeee I used to play in a private game where we had different 'hogs and takes on them too so it was always hilarious based off of what experience the blues had gotten into. Sounds like LA!Sonic is going to get experimented on like one of my takes on a Sonic did. HEHEHEH that sounds awesome.

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll check it out.

OKAY THAT WAS ON ME, sadly, Fandom AUs aren't allowed. Donnie is running on CRAU since I played him in another game before Seasons and also just having been in game land for close to two years.

The alternates are just different canon versions of characters. IDW Sonic versus Live Action versus Archie and all that.

Same for Turtles.

Sonic is getting experimented on in game so that's where his fun time is happening. And he definitely doesn't have a lot of people willing to go feral for him, haha.

If you decide to hit up the TDM, Sair is my name for the invitations.

OHHHH okay! No worries! I was like 'oh are AUs allowed that's new' but if there's CRAU that explains a lot. :O

Gotcha - that's what I've been seeing when alternates are allowed so I'm glad I checked.

Poor Sonic ~~torment him more it's fun~~ but any of my three currents would go to bat for a cute animal person in trouble.

I haven't had a chance to really sit down and read everything on the navigations but is the TDM currently up or do I have to wait for a new one? Thanks for the invite! I'll be sure to use it if I hit it up. :)

TDM is here and yes, its open. Just need to apply for the invite first. They last two months and are pretty much always up for tagging into.

Sonic has little brother energy for so many people and gotta give them a thing to react to. ~~And you know, hit him right in some of his deepest fears.~~

Been trying to read up on things so I get a feel, but wow, is Seasons really big? It feels big! :Oa

HE JUST NEEDS SNUGGLES he's very cute ~~oh no mwhahaha~~

Its got a lot of info and does have a lot of people, but its fairly chill on the pace. The bigger world makes it pretty reasonable to not know everyone.

Sonic really does!

(Debatable on Shadow Link/Lott, I am sure he will be Very Normal about Zelda.)

Okay, that's good! I threw my hat in the ring though so we'll see how it works out.

Maybe if I like it I'll bring Rise Raph and he can give the cute animal boy hugs

(OH I BET HA HA)

Other people seemed excited for her when I shared the links. :D

Raph deserves to give all the cute animal boys hugs. (And there are people who are even taller than him who can give HIM the big hugs he deserves.)

(Shadow Link had an epiphany of so many feelings and then DIED and he's just never had a chance to actually work through some Very Complicated Feelings. Are you familiar with the Four Swords Manga because boy, it is A TRIP)

:O awww that's so kind of them!

HE JUST WANTS TO LOVE ALL THE ANIMALS the boy would die happy for a kitty cat (GASP he would be SO thrilled for this)

(THE POOR THING; I haven't read it but I played Four Swords MANY moons ago. Poor thing having to deal with a princess that isn't his)

RAPH DESERVES IT, even if the animals don't always love him. (But there are always MAGIC cats and puppies.)

TO BE FAIR, the manga and game are Real Different. Shadow Link went villain more for attention and then Zelda was about to die and he felt like HE was dying and then he went screw it and died saving her so you know. He's normal about Zelda.

THEY SHOULD LOVE HIM he's a sweet boy (DOUBLE GASP he would love that so much ;w;)

Oh jeez that is really different. I SEE that he will be TOTALLY NORMAL™ about Zelda. XD That's interesting though! I'll have to give it a read since it's different than the games.

HE REALLY IS!!! (There is literally a bag of kitties/puppies people can buy in rewards-)

Its a great read for only two volumes. They pack in SO MUCH.

omg he would LOVE THAT so much; I'd love to let him have a pet that wouldn't be afraid of him

YESSSS DELICIOUS LORE I love that stuff

That is definitely an option. If nothing else, there is Pokemon. Pokemon would be here for a TUSSLE in a fun way.

SUCH DELICIOUS LORE. (Even if we don't know why Shadow Link is so different from Every Other Dark Link, so I get to just make up what's that from the vague context clues.)

oh no he'd love a pokemon too :Oa

But that's the most fun! I like it when there's plenty of little bits and bobs to let you take your own spin on the context. Makes it all the more fun

Get a Small Pokemon for cuddles, get a Big Pokemon who can judo flip a giant turtle.

VERY TRUE. Sometimes the closest thing you get is Literally Made Of the Hero's Shadow Maybe and then just figure out the implications there of.

Four Swords Link may have had some serious internal issues to figure out.

I always had a headcanon that if he'd be a trainer he'd probably be a fairy type one ha ha ha ha

SOUNDS RAD though; getting to play around with that just makes the character far more interesting, especially when it comes to different takes on said character

ewjaoeijwa HE WOULD DESERVE IT. Plus fairies can be pretty and gentle, or just be so VERY round shaped. (Raph deserves a Blissey.)

It is. And then you have canons with a dozen versions of a person across timelines for people to figure out when they meet.

YESSSSS also they're fierce and you know, dragon killers (THE ROUNDEST FRIENDS)

God yeah I love that about the Sonicverse because if you go with Archie canon there was literal other world versions of Sonic that you could go crazy with and it was a hoot

THE DRAGON KILLERS.

This is true. LA Sonic is learning about Zonic and he's just shaking his head. Who names someone ZONIC really-

GOTTA BRING THOSE JERKS DOWN

oh god that must be a hoot. DON'T YOU WANNA KNOW ABOUT YOUR SIDEWAYS COUSIN, LA? 8O he's grumpy and overworked

They need some humble pie!!!!

Sonic feeling some kind of way about all these Sonic's!!!!

Also sorry Shadow decided to Immediately Lie, Zelda, he is worried about his temper in face of rejection.

He definitely won't regret it the moment he realizes he's sixteen and he knows about what his owner looks at that age (thanks OoT!Link) and his shadowness forces him to mimic the age.

Nothing like a tiny pink thing breaking them down!

LOL poor Sonic, he's just a little guy who gets to boggle at the rest of them from different worlds

HAHAHAH she's far too trusting with Link shaped things - it'll just make her go WAIT WHAT when he suddenly gets older or something XD

Its the power of the red spectrum.

He really is. He's SO confused hearing about the long history of Eggman and all these other mobians all over the place.

SHE REALLY IS, Lott is just like 'just keep swimming, this is fine, I am definitely Not Digging A Hole For Myself.'

I mean, at least he would rather throw himself into the sun than hurt her, so there is that.

He would be so proud of his little stronk pink things.

Oh man that MUST be a trip given everything that happens with Knothole and the war. Poor kid just wants to eat snacks with Donut Lord.

You're going to have some explaining to do, Lott. The ghibli tears might come out from this princess if you're not careful
