November 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.

Voltron: Legendary Defender @ The Wake

[personal profile] paladincoach 2017-11-25 08:44 pm (UTC)(link)
[game]: [community profile] thewake
[fandom]: Voltron: Legendary Defender
[game's current cast]: Keith, Coran
[who I play]: Coran
[wanted]: LITERALLY ANYONE. Shiro, Lance, Hunk, Pidge, and Allura are top priority, but we would also love to see literally anyone who has enough background to be apped (and yes this includes villains, they can actually thrive quite nicely here). Keith is up to Season 2 Episode 8, and Coran is at the end of Season 2, but both players are caught up to the end of Season 4 of the show so we really do mean it when we say we will take anyone. Consequences are fun, okay?
[game info]: The Wake is set in Nautilus, a powerful being in which all of its residents reside. It is placed in what is essentially the center of the universe, where people "wake" from their dream-like lives to enter the true reality. If you've seen The Matrix, think of it like someone being unplugged from it.

Those who wake have the ability to bend, which is the term for shaping reality to their will. Anyone can learn this with enough practice, regain lost abilities through it, and learn to do so much more. The purpose of learning bending is to help keep every universe on its intended path, but in truth the residents of Nautilus can use these abilities however they choose. Keep in mind, however, that Nautilus is alive and can bend as well. It is a being of chaos, kind or cruel, generous or mischievous, it depends on what it feels like doing given any particular day.

I've found the game itself to be a decent balance of slice of life and plot, with events happening on a regular basis dependant on time of year and player suggestions. Enough player plots go on as well, to the point where there's basically always something going on in game. Participation in such things is always optional, as well as whether or not they'll be affected by the event itself.

Activity check is relatively relaxed, and put simply it is two pieces of the following;
12 network comments (can use multiple threads to make one activity piece)
1 network post (provided you've made an effort to reply)
1 log community participation (doesn't have to be your post)

The first month on joining the game is also a free pass for activity, requiring only a check-in.

As for what is going on with the cast? Coran is relatively new, having only arrived in Nautilus in September. I'm still trying to get him into a groove in the game, and having more familiar faces will help expedite the process for him. Keith was a lone canon warrior for nearly a year before that and has developed significantly, but he misses his friends a lot and would love to see them there. They also need to be there to tease him about his girlfriend, seriously.

There are bi-monthly test drives, with the current one as of this post linked here and general game information available on the navigation page. I will also answer any questions possible here if you want to ask them. We look forward to any interest you might show in our game!
