September 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.

We literally just got an Archer and a Caster over in [community profile] thefarshore, which is a modern fantasy kind of game with a pretty easy AC and relaxed pace, although the game itself is fairly large now.

You get the option of entering as either a god, which allows you to hear prayers, get a temple in the Heavens where you chill, and teleport.... or as a shinki, a deceased spirit with no memories of their past life but can turn into a weapon/item/clothing/animal when a god names them. (Shinki can also cast spells.) Gods and shinki partner together, the shinki serving the god, because ~their powers combined~ is the only way to destroy ayakashi, a kind of demon/monster that plagues the living world.

It's pretty good for villains, I think! We just got done with a player plot long ago where their character was murdering others (an alternative to how they would normally drop so it wasn't a problem for anyone) and finally got caught.

I just watched a walkthrough of Persona 5 (because life is sad and I don't have a console), and I would totally love to have a protagonist at Recursion! You can find our ad here. It looks like we have most of what you'd like -- definitely Dreamwidth-only, very plotty and with fantasy elements, and allows for player plots and input.

Come hit up the TDM if you're interested, and I'll be glad to pounce on it. <3 Otherwise, if you have any questions, feel free to ask!

Definite Fits:
☑ games with fantasy elements
☑ games that allow for player plots/input

[Unknown site tag] is a game about a fae run multiverse travelling carnival. The fae are a big aspect, and the current 'big bad' the carnival is facing. In the past we've also dealt with vampires and have visited worlds with fantasy elements as well! You can but magic abilities for character or other skills with the game's activity points as well. Game is also very friendly to player plots, in the past we've had events run by the Mushishi cast and one caused by Jonathon Strange from the novel/mini-series. The game is very self-directed so it's up to the mundane what they want to make of it and how it effects the characters.

Maybe Fits?
☑ plotty games
☑ games good for villains

Since we have reoccurring bad guys and an overarching plot I would definitely describe the game as plotty! However, it's not totally focused or centered around one central problem that the characters need to solve. Rather it's that player action causes in game consequences that later effect the carnival in terms of what shit they end up having to deal with. So maybe not the kind of plot you're looking for?

I also think this is a good game for villains. BUT that also sort of depends on your view. Violence against other carnival workers is a strict no-no, but the consequences vary depending on the severity of the crime. The Ringmaster is all powerful in the game so she has ways she can keep various baddies in check. Additionally if you play a sneaky or cunning villain there's definitely ways you can mess with people considering that some of the worlds the carnival visits can be pretty dangerous. If no one knows who did the bad deed then there's no consequences right? This also depends on severity though, as obviously some incidents are going to be more heavily questioned than others.

Basically it's very villain friendly but there are in game consequences to character actions if their actions are discovered! So I think that's a fit as well.



Personally, I am super thirsty for any Persona's we can get, but we don't have any Persona or Fate/Stay/Zero cast right now. Still since it seems like the game fits what you're looking for I wanted to let you know! The game is also VERY friendly to lcw's and we've got a lot of people playing from smaller/lesser known canons. It's very easy to get CR even without having a castmate to rely on! I hope you check us out!
