I should have clarified how DW and LJ ATPs will work but it's...the holiday and my brain is on vacation. When I update later this week, I'll include all of the information to clarify.
Basically, any game on IJ, LJ, and DW can be advertised on either ATP. We've always allowed that. It'll be more "where would you prefer to post". I know a lot of people are having difficulties using LJ right now and so DW would be an easier alternatives. Of course, I'm one of those people who tries to get one ad for each of my games collectively together and have one person post it. BUT THAT'S JUST ME.
Anyway, it'll kind of just be a "do what's easier for you" sort of medium. If there's a huge influx of games going to DW, it'd be easier to have a second one there. If the majority of people stay on LJ, then LJ will probably end up getting more comments...but that's just how the cookie will crumble.
Thanks for letting us know what's going on with the meme! I'm glad you'll have the meme at both sites--but I hope it won't be too stressful for you. Organize things the way it works best for you, OK?
Just so you know, DW is going to go live with a community import feature within the next couple of weeks. Since they already have a feature that crossposts to both Livejournal and Insanejournal at will, it may be more convenient for you to import the ATP community to DW and make all posts on the DW site, that way they would automatically be crossposted to the LJ and IJ communities.
That is if crossposting is going to be a functionality enabled for communities, although I can't see why it wouldn't be.
ATP is, thankfully, a journal. And I've already begun importing everything. The problem is that we also have mini-threads in the posts that we'd still need to put up, so there'd still be split mod-work running around to put those comments in before people go crazy posting.
But thanks for letting me know about comm posting! I've heard a little about it but not a whole lot.

Secondly, what about the people at Insanejournal? Are you going to start an ATP there as well, or just on DW and LJ?

I'll take the IJ ATP idea in mind, though!
