February 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.

If there's trouble, tell me HERE, please!

Medietas for Klaus since we have a book based version of his sister! AC is now a check in and the pace is around a 5 but can kick up during events/major plot.

i noticed the violet's got some AU in there. can i ask where the change starts outside of being post-canon?
redarrowqueen: (Default)

[personal profile] redarrowqueen 2017-02-26 10:11 pm (UTC)(link)
(I'm also the Violet so can answer this.)

She's mostly post novels in terms of the AU aspect but is canon at least through the escape from the islands. Only real difference is they are saved but they get torn apart in the process by more rotten adults. There's more in her app in invented_misery as well.

And maybe getting a Klaus will be worth the wait!

Hihi, I play Twelve over at [community profile] faderift. And I think any of your crew could be very interesting there.

Note about Clara: I play post-Doctor Mysterio, but I also play that the Doctor has pieced a lot of knowledge about Clara together. He still doesn't *remember* her, but he knows more about her now than he did at the end of Hell Bent.

It is a game set in the Dragon Age universe, but no canon knowledge is required to play. (Personally, I like to compare it to the old days of Table-Top D&D, because that's how it feels like it's being run. Which has been awesome to me!)

It's very backtag-friendly, and AC can be met in a bunch of different ways: 1 open log, OR 1 open network post, OR just 5-10 comments (depending on log vs. network) in a thread. Special thing about their AC: You can earn bonus points for going above base requirements! These points can be redeemed for IC rewards. (Like gaining special abilities). That's totally optional, though.

Characters can be AU'd into the setting, or arrive from their original canon through a rift between worlds.

Good luck finding a game that works for you!

ETA: the new Test Drive just went up last night (I meant to add it): https://allthisshitisweird.dreamwidth.org/17290.html

[personal profile] therecipe 2017-02-26 08:06 pm (UTC)(link)
i'm not too familiar with table-top on top of being totally clueless about dragon age so i'm a little worried i might just end up going "??????" the entire time on you.

would you say it's easy for a newbie to get involved? how plot-heavy is it?
not_the_question: Witch's Familiar (Sonic Cool)

[personal profile] not_the_question 2017-02-26 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
I was worried about that too, but their game guides are great and you can learn details along side any characters you bring in. I'm totally canon-blind to Dragon Age, but it's really been easy to get involved.

It seems to be more plot than Slice of Life. But there's SoL too. And unless you sign up for specific missions within the plot, you can pick how involved or not you get. (Of course, as long as you meet AC requirements.)

Don't let my excitement for the game scare you - It's not as intense as I am LOL
therecipe: (✿ but where does she get the milk?)

[personal profile] therecipe 2017-02-26 08:46 pm (UTC)(link)
okay i'm reading things over and i'm trusting you on intensity thing so don't steer me wrong, doc
i'll pop in on that TDM later today when i have a minute and get a feel

Every interprets it differently. :)
If it doesn't work, it doesn't work, but you should at least try.

[Okay, wow that sounded much more Doctory than I intended.]

I will also slip in here for a second to say that playing as a rifter is a super easy way to learn how to get the hang of the game even if you're not familiar with DA. But - if you do have any setting questions, I'm the Jamie over there and I'd be happy to answer them too. Just let me know!

i would love to see max caulfield in [community profile] recolle! recolle is a pan-fandom mem-loss and regain game taking place in a modern setting. characters are brought in with an au, a life that can be entirely different than their canon life, and slowly regain memories. the game just opened and is rather fast but i've noticed a significant decrease in speed. people are definitely willing to backtag!

regains are based on A/C, you can regain memories, items, appearances, etc as quickly as you'd like if you're actively tagging out. personally, i'm a glutton and would love to see max regain her powers back.

take a look and if you have any questions, feel free to message me! :c thank you for considering!
puttanesca: (pic#10984092)

[personal profile] puttanesca 2017-02-26 04:26 pm (UTC)(link)
that definitely looks like a fun place to throw max into and i haven't done a good regain game in a while. it looks like your app cycle ends in 2 days though. do you know when the next one is and when recolle usually puts up test drives?
tearable: (12)

[personal profile] tearable 2017-02-26 05:31 pm (UTC)(link)
unfortunately it will be two months until apps reopen. that was my bad for being too excited to see a max that slipped my mind. :c i'm sorry! if you're still interested...

the au workshop will come first which is april 10th and reserves are april 17th with the TDM! reserves are needed to app too. apps fall on april 24th.
puttanesca: (pic#10984095)

[personal profile] puttanesca 2017-02-26 07:15 pm (UTC)(link)
it's okay! we've all been there.

i'm still interested so i'll mark it down for if i'm still looking then. :)
helladoomed: (I see you lookin'.)

[personal profile] helladoomed 2017-02-26 09:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Woah a Max.

How do you feel about space? I've got Chloe over here in [community profile] driftfleet, it's somewhat laid back, AC is...medium I guess? One post or three threads. But you can use backtags for it.
endof: (pic#10753015)

[personal profile] endof 2017-02-26 09:56 pm (UTC)(link)
omg!
woah a chloe.

i feel pretty good about space! ok i'm actually totally interested in this one because scifi is my jam & i heard some good stuff about driftfleet and glanced at it a few times because the premise sounded cool.
helladoomed: (The long walk home.)

[personal profile] helladoomed 2017-02-26 10:38 pm (UTC)(link)
Space is definitely the best. We had a max ages ago so there'd even be a little bit of built-in CR, if that's a motivation. The game is pretty laid back, the events are usually fun. Space vagabonding has it's moments. It's slice of life sometimes but not all the time?

That probably makes sense.

So there's a test drive here but it's a bit old. I think there'd be a new one sometime in March if you'd prefer to wait for that? Usually the first week or so, I'd imagine.

It is an invitation game, but I'm preeeeetty sure an invitation could be arranged. :D
endof: (Default)

[personal profile] endof 2017-02-27 12:42 am (UTC)(link)
oh man. i rarely get the built-in cr aspect so that could be neat to play with. that all makes sense, i think! it sounds right up my alley.

i'd think i'd be apping in march so i can wait if this one's gone stale but i'm down for still commenting it to get a feel if you think it'd be a good idea.

:D yeah? consider me game!
helladoomed: (Chit chattering)

[personal profile] helladoomed 2017-02-27 12:53 am (UTC)(link)
It's up to you! You can tag both, if you like! People still pay attention to it, and I can do a bit of word-spreading on plurk too.

[personal profile] sevenhidesmods 2017-02-28 03:16 am (UTC)(link)
Hi there! I think you have a great list of characters and thought Seven Hides might be a great fit for some of them.

[community profile] sevenhides is a small, slow paced game with a low AC (10 comments a month, and very backtag friendly) that focuses on exploration of an abandoned city, weird talking animals with special powers, and a monthly (optional, but encouraged) murder game.

There is memory loss in the form of individual memories either being taken or entirely new ones being added to garner favors from said talking animals with special powers. It's not usually an all at once thing (though if it is, then it's temporary) but piece by piece.

We're still pretty small so we unfortunately don't yet have a whole lot of casts in our game, but we'd love to have you! I hope this sounds interesting and that you would be up for checking us out. We also have a new Test Drive Meme up if you'd like to try us out that way first.
