Four or five of the top sex stories or by the same person, and ever single thread has the same number of likes. Maybe it is time to go to a most favorites or something.

Yeah I noticed that too when I was trying to figure out how my story dropped from the top 10 to 60+ =(. The rating per view count isn't that crazy for new threads but the uniformity of all the reviews is a little suspicious. Maybe she just has 30 die hard fans? If it is actual cheating, and not just a case of a loyal fanbase then it's tempting to do something similar. Especially with how much exposure being in top 10 gives but it would suck to see the system degrade into upvote spamming to keep yourself rated high while downvote spamming everyone else. I guess you're kinda screwed either way since no matter what people will find ways to game the system.
I can see the possibility of the writer bringing friends in from other forms of social media to look at her work on this site. I don't know how top stories are calculated here so hard to say either way. Is it supposed to be the most viewed story? Most favored? Most followed?

It Is done by most likes which is suspicious because it is the same number of likes for every post. That means it is probably just one person with multiple accounts not a bunch of people.

Well.... when you watch the stories daily... because it looks a little suspicious that one author has six stories in the top ten with barely any views... and you read the quality of writing.... and you notice that the likes on it goes up for every chapter by one each day..... it becomes quite obvious.

didn't notice til you said something, now it irks me every time I see it 
I think the best solution for the list would be amount of unique likes, as opposed to counting the same 30 people for every chapter.

I think they noticed a couple of my stories on the top stories list. I had multiple accounts down vote dozens and dozens of threads in two different stories over the past day or two. Two stories from 99% to low 80s in 48 hours or so. They're dedicated, although I don't really understand why they're doing this. What do they gain?

Ahh yes, when I read that the great Chyoo troll was defeated a while ago, I looked away from my monitor and into the distance... for I knew that someday the dark evil would rise again from the depths of some frustrated idiot. I didn't know how long it would take, but I knew it was inevitable.
*Takes off cloak*
Nah but really, all they gain is more stupidity. Fools think they're causing a crippling amount of emotional damage or something. Such a shame, they could have used the time they spent trolling on something more productive, like picking their ugly noses!
If I were to go through the insanity of putting myself inside the troll's head then this is the result:
"HURR DURR HEMATOMA'S SUCH A LEGEND, EHEHEHE I DISLIKED HER STORY SHE'S GOING TO GET SO FRUSTRATED AND STOP WRITING FOREVER LMFAOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!111111 CHYOA COMMUNITY GONNA COLLAPSE, RIP AIRREKT, DUSKFART, FALLENPAINT, DEEPFRIEDMAN, MURACRUMMY, ETC..."
Yeah... pretty tragic.
So Hematoma since you are the woman who gave me the final push and inspired me to start contributing threads on this website years ago... I'm gonna tell you this.
Keep writing and let those trolls choke on their own tears. (ACTUALLY THIS GOES OUT TO ALL THOSE BEAUTIFUL AUTHORS OUT THERE TOO)

I realized this too, but I didn't say anything. I really don't think anybody really pays attention to most liked stories, similar to how not many people pay attention to Notable Writers. Both Ms Shabby and Capace or however you spell it have strikingly similar like counts. And, when I first glanced at the stories, I was really confused about how they were that up there.
No offense, but the writing wasn't all that great. And I haven't even heard of Una Healy and The Satudays.... maybe it's just from where I'm American.

I dare this guy to submit their stuff to a magazine or a publishing house, and see how demanding their standards are and how hard writing is when you don't have friends artificially up-voting your stuff. I have a good sized stack of rejection letters from magazines for some of my short stories. All authors have the same story (read Stephen King's On Writing). It takes persistence and commitment, something I see in plenty of people here and qualities I certainly wish I possessed more when it came to this. I want to reiterate Corrupted Heroine's commendations all the awesome people here for providing that inspiration to me and everyone else awesome! People who want to promote their own unwarranted self-importance... ain't nobody got time for that bullshit.

Awwww thank you, that's such a sweet thing to say. I'll keep writing. I hope you do too!
I'm not so sure about your troll theory though, I think they're trying to rig the game for their own stories and I can't really figure that one out, because it's not like any of us are getting money from our stories or winning prizes. It's just numbers on a list.

Ohh, alright. So they aren't all that popular? I thought it was some sensational band i.e. One Direction or something like that. Huh.

I brought in some friends to Chyoa. Not my fault if people don't upvote your work.
