Oh! I'm sorry, this was all in jest-I mean I was joking. I thought since it was the lounge...

If, let us say, you start a new forum post and someone replies to it and you read it and you're like "Okay... I read it, but..." You don't really have an answer or know what to say back. Do you say "Cool" or "Great, I have read your reply to my post." or do you put the word liked in quotation marks like on Facebook or maybe even "---seen at (whatever time)" How does one reply? Or should you just not say anything? (I mean you have nothing to say.) Or am I the only one encountering this problem?

---My delima :(

Good to know. I am very relieved I can tell you.

That makes me happy :), 'caz all I really want to do is write not plan. Urg, the planning out every little choice and branch and tiny change is killing me! So, good.

Oops, lol. I didn't check that.

Really? Almost all of the articles in the help section say something like, "Don't write without a plan! You shall regret! immensely! Regret!"

Okay, thanks for the advice. It is kind of hard to keep planing and planing when I just want to write but I'll try to write the skeleton well opposed to fast :)

The other day I started plotting the choices for my first storygame. It is a different one then I had originally planed (that one had no foreseeable end in sight and so I set about trying to think of something simpler).

It's about a boy who wants to fly, and his journey up a mountain to jump off and see if he grows wings.

Anyway, I started this two days ago and I'm just trying to get the most basic choice structure possible so I can start writing the meat of the story. But... the more I write to try to get to the end, the more choices it seems I need to get to the end and I can't seem to actually get to the end.

Does this ever happen to ya'll guys? And if it does what to you do so that you can actually start writing?

I agree on the big choices. I feel a little cheated when I play through a second time and learn that I get the same two paragraph no matter which choice I picked. Or if I choose the opposite option and then am asked another question and just get roped into the option I didn't want.

(And it was a sock, as in you steal only one purple sock)

As a reader do you enjoy it more if the writer lets you make small choices that don't really effect the story's major arcs along with big choices (small choices like, "Which do you steal from the elderly old grandma? The Green hat or the Purple Sock?" but no matter which you pick you still end up stealing something and the police chase after you?)

Or if the writer just gives you choices that change the ending (big choices like jump off the cliff or go home. If you jump off the cliff you fall screaming to your death and go splat on someone's poor sidewalk,  if you go home you sit by the fire in your house and enjoy a sweet cup of hot chocolate while snuggling with your favorite teddy bear)?

Or does the writer giving "small choices" count as being cheep and making the reader play their story opposed to giving several story lines following one character?? Just curious.

Great, thanks :)
