enablemeplz | July 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.

I know you said that memloss is a little eh for you, but what about aus?

plus_ultra is a young game set in the my hero academia setting, where a majority of characters have unique powers. most young people attend UA, but pretty much everyone has a broad range of career options and opportunities, like becoming a teacher, a pro hero, vigilante or villain (ps, we love villain activity).

since you've been out of the loop for a while— plus ultra has been a pretty welcoming game, even for people that are trying dreamwidth games out for the first time! that being said, the pacing is pretty chill, with monthly events and missions to choose from; not only is the playbase patient and engaging, but ac is also really great: ten comments a month!

we've got a test drive if you want to give it a shot, and an au quirkshop to help iron out your au idea and get feedback. the app is actually your workshop post, with a sample added.

reserves are open and apps open on august 4th!

Oh man, BnHA... I'm so far behind in the manga it's not even funny (I'm pretty sure the anime has caught up by this point, whoops, that is how far behind I am, how did this happen).

I skimmed some info pages really quickly; it seems the demographics skew pretty heavily teachers+students, basically all based in UA/the academy? Do you mind telling me what kind of things tend to go down for characters outside of that? Not that it's a dealbreaker or anything if I decide to take anyone there, since I could swing an au teacher/student position easily, but I figured it's worth asking.

(secret: I'm actually way behind too aaahahah)

but I'd be happy to! I'll be honest, that was actually a mod concern last month, and that's not a road we want to keep riding on. for this round we've implemented a mission's board to get things going for pro heroes, vigilantes and villains; students won't be allowed to pick up missions unless they're interning with pros, and if they do, they'll probably have to get arrested by a pro, but— students won't want to if there aren't many pros to arrest them in the first place.

in the long run, students need pros, pros need villains and vice versa to bounce off of, and I know we have a few villains already that are just waiting for the mission task board to go up to start trouble with plot (im one of those villains actually). just as another example: we had a mod-run villain event during the sports festival where all the pros were able to get together and investigate while students were in standby to help around the edges while the pros dug up the bulk of the problem (instead of full on helping, because it was too dangerous)— it was really great to see them all work together, and after that, there was a meeting post for them to discuss their next course of action.

I say we're gunning for a balance, which is why this app round was going to only be open to pros, villains and other adults, but after emp's slight dely we decided against it. I'm apping a pro hero this round myself (this guy), and already have plans with other pro heroes! it's a world we'd love to expand on!

(oh cool it's not just me, sweet)

hmmmmmmmmmmmmm

that's fair! I appreciate the detail, to be honest— it's a new game, yeah? gotta give it that time to grow, character base wise. but that level of mod involvement and transparency/receptiveness? probably not the exact word i'm looking for but the gist is there— is pretty promising!

anyway, it's looking like a cute, pretty chill and lowstress game, i might actually have to take a closer look at it and maybe poke around in the tdm/workshop.

~~how strapped are y'all for eccentric/prickly support-ish researcherinventor types~~

the mod is super receptive and open to ideas, concerns, and what the players think and want. she's also really easy to talk to and really enjoys working with the players to create a fun environment for everyone, so that's certainly a plus. but ahhhh yes, please do!!! we'd love to see you around there!! I myself will keep an open eye!

~~more ready than nutella stack sandwiches yes grabby hands~~
