I don't see why that should be necessary. Yes, it would probably be a drop down list. Variable type conflicts would be resolved the same way they currently are, I guess.

I think enumerations would be useful in game mode stories, particularly to track states that cannot be represented by booleans. I realise this is perfectly achievable with integer variables, but for that reason, I assume it would be a fairly simple implementation. For those who don't know, an...

I assume Friedman reset them because they were occuping excessive space, much like the issue with the Recent Activity tab some time ago.

There is currently no better solution.

You can make a poll here in the forum and put the link in the chapter.

Friedman has the capability to reorganise stories manually. Allowing users to do this would probably require a rate limit. It would also need to work in a logical manner that minimises side effects - for example, when you move a chapter, all of its children should move with it, staying in the...

It depends on what aspects of porn you find arousing. Erotic drawings enable the creator to fine-tune the physical, visible aspects of a sexual scene - where every single body part of every single character is located, or exactly what each person looks like, down to the precise shape and...

To be fair, it is often easier to ask for forgiveness than permission, particularly with liberally-designed public stories such as that mentioned. It is better for the health of the site to make story management easier for authors where reasonable. I think the ideal solution would be allowing...

I see what you mean, but to be fair, that kind of structuring will introduce problems regardless of how it's displayed. There isn't really any type of story that necessitates fifty chapters off the Introduction.

Are those two situations not identical? If you press "collapse all" and uncollapse just the Introduction chapter, you will have collapsed everything except the Introduction. And if you mean every first choice from the Introduction chapter up to the end of that branch, then I'm not sure what the...

This is actually a solid strategy if you're struggling with confidence in your own ability. Use the "Random Story" feature and work out why the given story is bad (the odds of it being any better than "okay" are very low, frankly). If it's a mistake you know not to make, you've found writing...

You do need to have at least 250 words of actual content, as per rule 6. Describing the characters or setting of a story, or listing options (especially different franchises), don't count towards this 250. This word count may be divided between several chapters, and does not necessarily need to...

You can find quite a few sexual terms in the Encyclopedia Erotica, if that helps. There might be a page on erotica-specific categories. That might be true for a few cases, but in general I doubt that's where most fetish acronyms originate. Subreddits are identified by URL, so if the acronym...

$10 of what currency? Which cryptocurrency? Gift cards to what? Some may not work internationally.

If I find myself in that situation, I'd try to focus on whatever makes the sex scene unique. There must be some sort of difference between the two branches, or you would have linked them by now, so I would highlight that difference. If there really is nothing special about the scene, then I...

A chapter can take on many forms. In a linear story, it doesn't need to end in a potential decision. In a game mode story, it doesn't need to align with a minimum or maximum length, nor would that be feasible to track. It doesn't need to finish expressing a single idea if doing so would make it...

The ideal ratio would be 1:1, given that all covers seem to be cropped to a square when the story appears in a list, even though the full cover is displayed on the actual story page. I'm not sure about the resolution, but there doesn't seem to be a limit - the site apparently doesn't alter the...

Yes, I like to write stories. No, I can't tell you what they're about.

This is how the overwhelming majority of content on CHYOA is written in the first place. I just ran through the first few paragraphs of ten random stories, and I would call seven of them distinctly bad: writing that is not merely poor but genuinely difficult to interpret, or more robotic and...
