Hey, don't feel like you can't offer any advice! There's nothing wrong with trying to be helpful, I appreciate it a lot. That took time and effort to type those out after thinking of 'em. Thanks, gene.sis! That was a really quick turn around, you guys are the best.

Oh, by the way, adding onto this! Entering Game Mode in other people's stories while logged in doesn't cause me any problems -- it's only when I open my story while logged into my account, even after appending ?game=reset to the link, and the only way to see anything at all is if I end the game...

I've been doing a good bit of testing and idea-gathering by speeding through multiple Game Mode plays of my story Becoming a Warrior, but suddenly it started taking me to a page that only says "Whoops, looks like something went wrong." and nothing else whenever I enter Game Mode. I'm not sure...

I think you two are sort of agreeing then, aren't you? You're both saying that the decision shouldn't be made unless they can check it won't mess anything up. The "-" key is super possible, like ya said blank, because of hyphens, but we also shouldn't possibly ruin some Game Mode stories on the...

You're way way WAY too nice, man! That was so super awesome and nice to read, even if I'm not sure how true it is. That's just made me really happy now. I'm gonna be coming back to read it again and again for weeks. Thanks so so much, everyone here's been so kind and supportive and great about...

Oh man, thanks so much! I'm so glad you enjoy it, and it's really really cool hearing you talk about it like that. I'm gonna get stuck into making a bunch more chapters soon, since real-life time-investment stuff is slowing down, and you saying such nice things like that is a huge encouragement...

Oh yeah, I love doing that sort of stuff! Hidden text/changing text that only appears based on your Game Mode scores is the best, and I super agree that stuff shouldn't be visible if your character doesn't know it. Also, it was a super duper cool that you used a money example from my story...

Oh, don't worry, I'm definitely gonna try make each thing at the very worst bordering on erotic (and most of the time more than that), I was more just wondering how many things to do so that people who want to get back to Coinpilfer for the next week don't skip it or parts of it. I'm planning to...

Hey, I figured I should put this question to anyone caught up and reading! I put a comment of the weekend chapter, but when you comment on a non-introduction chapter several days after it's been released, I don't think a lot of people see it. I was wondering how many activities you think should...

Variable addition would definitely be cool. It's not a totally perfect fix, but it'll work and you don't need to wait for it -- if you know what's going to be added, you can just have a new variable that changes with it. For example, you know that you'll add "Strength" and "Speed" later. If you...

I think the scrolling thing's a bit unrealistic, but I do like (and have often thought about!) changing variables inside curly brackets of chapters like that, and having set conditions. However! For your other thing, a good fix that I've found is just having the variable added after the chapter...

I agree, but it'll probably take a while for it to get implemented -- a good workaround is using link chapters that require certain variables to see, that then change the scores in different ways but link to the same thing! It's worked really well for me, hope this helps.

I wouldn't use the word "unhappy", but ye, I do think about it quite a bit. For me, it's only part writing quality, with the other part being the actual content because I for real had no IDEA what I was doing when I started (which is part of why I started, so that I could sorta understand it...

I'm super duper cool with single-path stories, even if I might prefer ones with options a little bit. It's a bit like story vs gameplay in video games -- if something here has both of them (great writing and a ton of options), it's super duper good! But a thing only really needs one of those for...

Man, you guys are all always really really nice about stuff! I'm really struggling to find a way to say thanks that properly expresses how cool you dudes are. I looked up "thanks synonyms" but they all either suck or just have "thank" in an extended phrase. Anyway, I really appreciate how warm...

Somburliss is super awesome. The way she normally does stuff is coming in every 3-6 months and dropping a couple thousand words onto one of her stories, then going away again -- she works on the stuff during her free time, and only posts parts when the whole length is done. So odds are, there's...

Yeah! It's sort of hard to express exactly the stuff I'm thinking, because I do actually disagree with almost every point you're raising, Marinus, and that makes it difficult to focus on any specifically. Plus, most of what you're saying seems like it's more you expressing an opinion than any...

Hey, I don't really like how much emotion's suddenly coming into this stuff! Let's try keep it a bit more upbeat on both sides, nothing'll get done if we're all weird about it. For my part, I've gotta agree with insertnamehere a bit more than I do with you, Marinus. In my specific case, I just...

Oh, clever bugger! Thanks bunches, that's tons better than the ideas I was scheming!
