I was also wondering how hard it would to implement a name choice? I recall on some other cyoa website the player was able to choose from a few predetermined names, or create their own. Is there anyway I could implement that feature on this site? Or should I not bother and the main character is not referred to by name, or referred to by a title of somesort?

Alright thanks again!

C-C-C-C-C-OMBO BREAKER!!!! (In all seriousness congrats)

I'd really appreciate that. The system seems perfect for what I'm writing, which is basically two different spirits/mindsets (whatever you want to call them) trying to influence the reader/main character into doing certain actions. If you keep siding with one of them too much, eventually you'll have less control of those decisions, but be rewarded with additional paths. It probably sound a bit confusing (Im bad at explaining things) but I like the idea. Could I ask you later on about how you did that? I'd like to flesh out the story quite a lot more before I do the adittional paths and such.  

I was thinking more of (this will be a mature story) Certain characters Either threatening the player with violence (male) or with a*ahem* deviant acts (Female). I'd rather write most of it myself tbh, I'm not entirely sure if I could find someone of the opposite gender whose writing style I agree with, although if I did I agree that would probably be a good way to go about it. 

I'd also like to just quickly thank all you guys for the advice, I was unsure at first but this seems to be a really good community.

Thanks for the encouragement! 

That is actually quite a good system.  I get what you mean with that mass effect analogy. Still being completely inept at most things in life, I think I'll avoid scripting and such until I have a bit more experience under my metaphorical belt. Do you think Gender choice has a major impact on the story? I'm leaning towards the pre-determined character, but I'd like to at least have that as an option. Stories would close to identical for both, except certain encounters which would be wildly different.

I've read through that particular story, and I was thinking more of the gender of the character, the appearance, maybe starting faction and such. Scripting is one thing I was wanting to avoid, I was thinking just doing it through normal links. I know this would require a ton of going back, copy and pasting the same pages, with slight alterations, and would ultimately VERY time consuming,  but considering the amount of free time I have ( IE: the whole day for another couple of weeks) I think I could pull it off. I could handle the extra work. I was just wondering whether it would weaken the writing to the point where a I would be better off with a fully fleshed out character would be the better option.

First of all, first post here and all that malarkey, so forgive me if I come of as a bit newbie-ish. Right I have a few ideas floating around my that degenerative wonderbox I like to call my brain, and I was wondering what would people prefer? 

A Pre-determined Character would be much more well-constructed, and it'd also be less writing intensive then writing a story of a character made by the reader, as there would be less variables considered. On the other hand, a created character might be more easier to feel immersed as playing as them. I've got a story I'd like to write, but first I'd like to see what people prefer.
