    Marcie and Gina read CHYOA

    I think it'd probably be better to do it for some smaller/newer stories if you get responses from their authors, since it's a nice way for people to grow their things, so absolutely prioritise other stories over mine! I'm not even overly fussed on things like viewing numbers, really, but if you...

    Becoming a Warrior!

    Woah, that was a quick reply! Thanks MidbossMan, with how long you've been around and involved in the story your opinion does rank pretty highly in my lil mental debate club. So thank you a lot!

    Becoming a Warrior!

    Hello! So, for most of the story's life so far, I've been constantly going back to already-written parts and making lil adjustments here and there. Things like optimising game code systems, adding more text for special game states, fixing up errors along the way, and so on -- at some point, I'd...

    Becoming a Warrior!

    Okay, as promised, here's the notification! Week 2's now all opened up for viewing, with all of the new Free Time activities that entails and all. The first day's already finished and ready for you, and the second day's a bit over halfway done (to be finished in the next at most 3 real-world...

    What's your view on images in stories?

    Hey, wow, that's the first time I've ever seen anybody else mention those books! They were a huge favourite as mine as a kid, and I only recently found out that it wasn't as known worldwide as it was in Australia. Also, I'm in agreement with the rest of the stuff you wrote there too.

    Becoming a Warrior!

    I'm nearly back for week 2! My last exam for year 12 and last bit of school ever is this upcoming Friday, so after that, I'll be able to bang out the few bits that are left! Like I said in the lil author's note at the bottom of the current deepest chapter, I've already started work on the...

    chapter locked via password

    Oh, yeah, you're probably right about what they were asking for there! In that case there probably isn't any better way to do it than having the digits 0-9 as choices. Say it was a four-digit code, you'd have a variable "Attempt" set to 0 earlier, and from the password entry page you have digits...

    chapter locked via password

    (just to help ya out, here's how to do the stuff that people are talking about) LOCKING A CHAPTER FOR GAME MODE In the chapter you get the password, go into the edit page. At the bottom, under the chapter text entry, tick "changes to the score" and add a variable of the type you want. If it's...

    Planned Feature: Formula Parser

    It could be a good thing to just have a sort of notepad inbuilt into the right of the edit UI, like with customisable name variables -- maybe a system where it's a bunch of variable names as dropdown menus, which can be expanded to show a description of the variable and what its various states...

    I think adding a "Bi" preface is actually a really good solution, yeah! That solves the lot of it, since it's then dependant on the main character and leaves room for pretty much all outcomes. I think most stories featuring some amount of going both ways is probably true, but this is a really...

    I getcha, but I think that "Contemporary Fantasy" still evokes more images of a slightly-up-to-date fantasy world than "Modern Fantasy", just because it's used a lot less as a word than Modern. So out of a choice of the two, I think Contemporary edges it over just for clarity, despite being...

    For "Sexual Orientation", would something like "assorted" be alright? There are lots of stories that would be hard to put into any one box there -- it's sort of the only dimension that I think could benefit from having multiple selections, with a possible "assorted" option just sort of being a...

    Superhero/Sci-Fi might be good for the setting dimension. Something like "custom" might be good too, but only if these categories are meant to be super specific -- if it's meant to be more broad strokes, then it'd probably be a good idea to keep "custom" out. I really like "adventure" as a...

    Is there some real life event that inspire authors to write erotica?

    Being asexual also doesn't mean "doesn't want sex", it just means "doesn't need sex". Basically nobody knows what it means, and it's hard to come by a proper description, so if you're wanting to know then here it is: Asexual people are physically capable of having sex, and also still feel all...

    Threads approval reports

    As I understand it, there's nothing to worry about! Stories and chapters are generally published within 24 hours, usually WAY less, but thread approval stuff needs to be approved by the story's owners and not the site's mods. It's for stories that allow anyone to make entries, but the creator...

    Hide Variables?

    All of this, but remember! You can't do it with booleans. If a boolean is visible, you'll have to assume what it would be to make it invisible (in other words, ya can't make it invisible unless it's a chapter that already changes it -- and then you can't make it visible unless the chapter sets...

    Feeling guilty?

    It can sort of depend on a bunch of stuff. I think that if you're really feeling worried and guilty about it, then it could be worth taking a step back for some amount of time, just to figure out exactly what you wanna do/to generally drop down the bad stuff you're feeling. I don't think it'd be...

    A discussion on CHYOA Rules

    I think it was just a misunderstanding here -- blank97, your English is actually super good by the way, you even get things like metaphors translated right, and learning a new language to that degree is really impressive. But, I think sometimes it can sound a bit like you're getting...
