Hey Friedman! I don't think I have any solutions that haven't already been mentioned in the thread, but I just wanna say that if a second website does end up happening, then having some way to port stories over would be very very cool. As someone with a very large game-mode story, moving stuff...

Thank you! I really hope it does.

There is actually a really easy way to set any variable to zero! At the bottom of any chapter, including a link chapter that they have to pass through, you can enter variable changes. This is where you can add any number or subtract any number. There's also an "=" option, so instead of setting...

Haha, it definitely looks like a lot, but once you get it it really does all make sense. I was over-explaining and repeating myself a bit in an attempt to make everything super clear and throw in some suggestions of how things could be done, so it's really just a lot of words for not a lot of...

Actually, everything you've just asked about is super easy! I'm gonna explain every aspect of it to be safe, so if you already know something, sorry that it might come off as condescending. It's also going to end up sounding pretty complicated, so be sure to take it step-by-step and go slow...

From the "Edit Story" page, which you can find by clicking on "My Stories", tick the box that says "Readers can enter details about the main characters". Then bam! You'll have to type something like {name} any time the name shows up, and you can set what the default is if somebody doesn't enter...

I know it can be really hard, and it’s more advice about a goal than advice about steps towards a goal, which doesn’t make it super helpful, but do your best to try and not let your happiness be an exterior force. It’s no fun when you have to wait for and rely on outside sources and other people...

I don't think you should listen to anything that anybody on here says about this, no matter which way it ends up going. Do you have fun writing here? Does it bring you joy and make you smile? Does it pass the time well? Or is it more like a chore that you feel like you have to keep doing but the...

I think it depends on how it's done. In a Somburliss story, where "bad end" just means "go back one choice after you read this fun chapter", I think they're really great and add a bit of fun for people who want to see different stuff. I don't super like it when it's more the sort of "abandon all...

Sure! You just need three chapters -- the first one requires "gold <101", the second one requires BOTH "gold >100" and "gold < 301" (you can have multiple requirements for the same variable in a chapter!), and the third one requires "gold > 300". Hope this helps!

'Ello again! Still doing all sort of jumping around, but I'm hoping to keep making more Free Time activities at the University while I'm still all disjointed and endlessly workin'. One thing I wanted to ask, and figured I should ask here as well, is about the TV Tape-watching you can do from...

Hey! I just wanted to put here what I put in a little note at the bottom of the most recent chapter, to quickly apologise for the longish wait between chapters again. I know it's not a big problem, but I don't like it, so I wanna say sorry about it. I keep wanting to sit down and write out a...

Hey, I don’t know for sure, but I think Friedman may be able to recover it for you if you contact him, so long as it wasn’t deleted ages ago. I’m pretty sure I remember him bringing back a deleted story not too long ago for the author, so it’s worth a go!

Yeh, as far as I've heard, you'll get a message explaining the reason and how you can fix it. It generally takes about a day or two to get your story approved, so if it's not been that long yet, then don't worry! If it has been, then there's a thread here to ask Friedman (the admin) to take a...

I'm not a big looker-of-story-stats, so things like likes per chapter aren't a thing I consider, but I do also wish that linked chapters didn't count just because I think it'd be sort of cool to know how many chapters I've actually done (one of my stories has LOTS of link chapters because it's a...

Man, you guys are all so nice, I keep running out of ways to say how cool you are and how much you make me smile. That's really such a nice thing for you to go out of your way to say, thank you so super much.

Woah, thanks so much, that's way too kind! I do think I actually remember that you once mentioned how you got all invested and were playing to try keep your purity low, which was super cool to hear because I love when that sort of thing happens. I'm really really glad you've been enjoying it and...

'Ello! Sorry I haven't done anything for a bit, real life stuff's heatin' up (Nothing bad, just time-consuming stuff to set myself up for my future and stuff. Not done yet, actually the needle's barely moved, but I've learned lots and it's been a good time!). There's a bit of a pause in the...

Or otherwise set what you initial load is, in maybe something like increments of 500 (possibly still with an option to just auto-load it all!)

Hello! I know that this is something that'd probably have to be done with the rest of chyoa 2.0, so I'm not expectin' any fast results here, but I figured it'd be good to suggest it now so that I won't be waiting for chyoa 3.0, ya know? It'd be really nice if the Story Map loaded the entire...
