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

Re: Pokémon | Cross-Canon

The gigantic fanfic my Paul hails from will eventually have him deal with a Silver there (he'll be the rival to replace Ash once the story reaches post-DP territory), so the dude just seems destined for meeting Silvers. Which is fine by me! :D

Interaction really depends on if you want pre Chara dev (meaning a Giant Arsehole of a jackarse,) or the Gymleader... who'd make it a point to grab Paul by the ear re: how he treats his pokemon. He sees that path you're on..... (Which is hilarious, because Niko's on that Arc in his game. The early stages at least. It's going to be glorious.)

Heh, Paul could come from various points in time, though it's more interesting to place him after he gets publicly humiliated by Brandon or by the end of the series. He doesn't do a 180 in terms of his character and whatnot. And the vast majority of his controversial pokemon treatment came from Chimchar (which came across as ignorance and incompatibility rather than actual malice or sadism); all his other teammates seem A-OK with his brutal methods - they're all probably assholes of varying degrees too. :P For what it's worth, he stopped releasing pokemon entirely after Chimchar as well. Too bad that all happens well before Paul gets his whole world shaken up. XD By the end of his run he's softened up a little, but he still has very horrifying battle tactics. In many ways he plays like a defensive-oriented metagamer. He doesn't get all buddy-buddy with Ash at the end thankfully, and he doesn't quit being a trainer. He just learns to maintain some form of respect for the guy and accepts his differences. Though to me, that doesn't mean Paul likes the guy.
Made sense to me that Paul's next foe would be a more extreme version of him. It's been pretty consistent with Niko's counterparts that Paul's usually the underdog between them regardless.

Don't get me wrong; I'd love to do a thread with a Paul, I just don't want to short change you on the interaction.
