October EMP meme

[enablemeplz]

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. MOD CONTACT: If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please! RESOURCES: enablemeplz - The plurk for Enable Me Plz.

➤ 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.

SEEKING

hi! it's been a hot minute since i was regularly roleplaying, and since slipping back into it a bunch of my oldest partners have either retired from rp entirely or are on breaks - as such, i'm specifically seeking out regular rp partners. i would ideally love to find someone who has canons and characters to sell me on for shipping psls and who would enjoy getting into some of my own canons (mostly animanga, rpg, and so on!) in return. i'm down for gen psls as well but my bread and butter is finding a ship and partner to vibe with and then doing a million and one psls au or otherwise! as a partner i am happy to spitball ideas, will go with probably your most out there psl ideas because i have basically no real limits, and will usually get to tags a minimum of once per day for psls but often will be able to boomerang! check out my offering below for ideas of the types of characters i can am drawn to/some current interests/fandoms but i really am looking to get into new canons as i get back into rp proper! :)

if any of the above or below appeals to you, please feel free to dm me!

OFFERING

note: while i list my favorite ships i'm down for gen rp as well, and crosscanon ships! i can also usually be sold on really weird canon ships. also while my list is mostly guys i am happy to play girls & f/f / m/f!

✧ durin / genshin (ships: anyone i don't care i just want to play durin)
✧ kaveh / genshin (ships: alhaitham, open to others)
✧ mikleo / tales of zestiria (ships: sorey)
✧ takumi sumino / hundred line (ships: eito, nozomi, open to others)
✧ mithrun / delicious in dungeon (ships: kabru, open to others)
✧ qifrey / witch hat atelier (ships: olruggio)
✧ edward elric / fullmetal alchemist (ships: anyone)
✧ yu kanda / d.gray-man (ships: lavi honestly, don't judge)

PREFERENCES

✧ brackets are preferred to prose!
✧ smut is a-okay, and i am willing to try writing out pretty much any kink at least once. i don't have strong feelings about tops and bottoms for any ship ever.
✧ speed i am pretty open to but would gel best with people who can do more than 1 reply per week.
✧ i'm open to swapping discords or so on after we've played together for a while but prefer to communicate through dms until we know if we click or not! nothing personal, i just prefer to keep my discord list to people i'm actively roleplaying with (and friends, of course)!
✧ i'm not specifically looking to join games right now but would be open to joining games with partners in the future, especially if we find a pair we super click on! i'm an easy sell on most things.
✧ 100% willing to write starters once we've ironed out a basic premise for things! i like canon psls, full aus, "what if" scenarios, and pretty much anything. i do like having plot included but i don't mind pwp scenarios either! i can generally list out specific things i'd like to do with any of my characters as soon as i know who they're being played against without a problem. i'll be pretty upfront about what i'm interested in though i'm always happy to workshop ideas until my partner is totally onboard as well. i don't mind adding or removing things for someone else's comfort!

[historiology]

♥ Meebo~! I probably should refresh beyond just rereading the manga at some point, but. I do love these two a lot. I'd absolutely be down for something with them, whether canon/au or 'what if' canon divergence sort of thing.

[simulanka]

i'd love to do something! (i need to make a journal, i actually am midway through a replay of the game and went "man, i want to play mikleo/sorey...surely someone out there does too" so) if there's anything on bakerstreet that catches your fancy we can do a warmup there? canon-wise...i think i'll have a basketful of what if ideas by the end of my replay (so like, 2 weeks or so? hard to gauge how long it will take when some days i'm like "ok let's play 10 hours of game bc it's the weekend and i feel it" and other days i do not have the gaming brain...)

[historiology]

I'm a bit rusty, but. If you're keen. Whenever you're up for something, just hit me up. I can check bakerstreet and let you know? I'm usually down for like. gen texting/tfln or like insomnia or pic prompt memes that are generally pretty open for whatever options to play with. I totally get what you mean, though. During the week in the evenings, I am usually like 'okay, but I only have like four/three hours to do things before bed' sort of thing, and usually end up tagging and chilling while watching something. I'm always more mindful of the time when playing games for some reason??? idk why.

[simulanka]

i will hit you up for sure! maybe when i'm a little further in a good journal name will hit me (why are journal names hard) and then i can harass you...i always think like insomnia and stuff are great to get a feel for dynamics, so!

[historiology]

Oh man, yeah. Figuring out what user names are still available is more and more difficult, I hear that. But sure! Just let me know when you've got a journal set up and we can figure a meme for them sometime!

DURIN.... 🥺

[simulanka]

you have no idea how excited i am for the next story part (!!!!!!!!!! the trailer) as i diligently save for the patch after (maybe...i cope-hope he's going to be playable the patch after next ok ok)

i would looooove to do anything with wanderer ofc!

[guujin]

this is like my dream help i'm crying real tears. sniffs it feels like it's been SO long since the simulanka event - i can't believe it's nearly time for his proper debut!!!! durin my baby

you said you are down for weird pairings, so i have to ask..... is wandurin too weird or would you like to keep it gen mom&son etc. dynamic. i am unfortunately weak to dragons and so is wanchan himself

[simulanka]

i've been waiting so long THANK U ALBEDO, U HAD MY BACK!!!

absolutely not too weird for me! if you've got a specific hankering we can work out a specific psl, or if you want to join me voicetesting (i got impatient a little and am working off of simulanka / paralogism as i sit staring at the trailer) i did throw him on a few things on bakerstreet earlier today just off the front page! canon wise i want him to meet wanderer as a Real "Human" (thank u albedo) since i don't think wanderer knew that was the plan when durin went off to mondstadt...!

[guujin]

ALBEDO MY GOAT

and yesss i'd absolutely be down to help you voice-test!! we can definitely set up a proper psl later once more info on durin is out; there is a lot to explore there or mess around with, hehe. i also just want wanderer to meet "human" durin too and become baffled that the little dragon he cared for is suddenly his height and (magically) beefed up..... once again, thank you albedo 😤

toss the links to your top-levels my way and i'll do some Cooking for us let's goooo

[simulanka]

please consider: soulmates where maybe you only have a soulmate if you have a vision so wanderer didn't get one until y'know and maybe didn't have one (more material for broken doll feelings) until durin went to visit albedo and became properly part of the weirdest family in teyvat...any kinda soulmate thing, like see in color (so colorblind until swinging back to sumeru) or maybe occasionally getting to use the other person's vision powers or an elemental looking tattoo of them mixed or idk i'm just spit balling my vision

otherwise, bonfire lol no big pitch it's just easy

[guujin]

aaaannnnd tagged into the soulmates TL. lmk if that worked!! and feel free to shorten length in your reply; i was just setting everything up. wanchan is acting like a grumpy hag, but he's secretly happy inside trust me.....

i'm excited to play together - thank you for this opportunity!!

[simulanka]

no worries about length, i never mind any!

[precocity]

drive-by love qifrey and kanda!!! i love them so much

[startraveler]

Durin!! But also Kaveh ;;

Reaches for tbh...

[voo]

Hello there, I'd love to try and sell you on rareships ( if you wanna call it that ) with Kaveh and Pantalone, if you're okay with him being a amalgamation of the lore we've gotten so far all these years and headcanon until better concrete is out. I wouldn't mind just doing memes since a PSL would be difficult with future retcons. I'm also recently trying to come back from a rp break. Anyway something something rich x broke drama and Harbinger problematic drama.
I also just love discussing lore and delusional theories/what if scenarios, even if we're not RPing!

[olruggio]

lol the disclaimer for the kanda and lavi ship, I totally understand... like same fr

I'm actually heading out on vacation at the end of the month/beginning of next month so idk how available I'll be until about mid-November but if you wanna chat something with Qifrey and Olly I am down to sort something out or do a vibe check or memes or just... lament about the state of these two disaster dads because this manga, man...
