8 boys rescued now! 4 boys and the coach are still in the cave. The 8 rescued are in quarantined in a hospital in case they have an infection from the bar droppings in the cave.  It was the weakest boys taken out first. 

I'm a big King Arthur nerd (or at least I was in my first year of college when I studied the subject) so whatever you write I would be totally interested in. 

AND it's gonna be a comedy! And at least a little bit gay!? ;))))) I'm there! 

I think they're worried that if they try and blow it up to get everyone out from the top, that the cave will just collapse and crush them. 

And I worried that if they leave them in there until the caves un-flood that they would run out of oxygen but apparently they've got some sort of contraption just pumping the oxygen in to them. 

It's a crazy story, but if it's "flood season" how the hell were they stupid enough to go in there and not expect to be trapped? (obviously I don't know enough about Thai weather to be judging but it seems like an act of stupidity to me.)

Interesting about the medallion (which I think was called a talisman in the story). I went through the story a couple of times and couldn't find anything remotely like that. HOWEVER, I did just discover the Back button which saves repeating 50+ pages just to try a different link (which I did a number of times.... like a doofus!). Is the Back button considered "cheating"?   

Thanks for recs I will check some of those out for sure! 
I have noticed the authors tend to tell you how many endings there are which is nice. After reading through a few shorter stories, I believe in this Mommy Let's Go Killing (? its something like that) I got to an end, but not like the big ding! ding! ding! end that I could necessarily boast! :P

Also thank-you, I'm glad you like my beetle picture :) I find bugs to be generally really cute. 

Hello I'm KC, I'm 20 and Canadian. I've been looking for some sort of CYOA site like this and am very excited to have found this one! I will primarily be a reader but maybe in the future (once I understand how the platform works a little better) I will try to write a story. 

One thing I can say is that after reading through a couple forums, it seems like you all have made a really cool, inclusive and generally nice community! Which I think deserves some major kudos! 

I've only completed one story so far (Mommy something... sorry I forgot the whole name) and got 1000 points and finished it but it ended sort of abruptly but I didn't die... so I'm was little confused. Did I win? Because it didn't feel like it. People were talking in the comments about an ~item~ of which I didn't find any pieces so I don't know how I got to 1000 points without finding that. (I tried looking at the "articles" for help with this sort of basic reader question, but mostly the articles are geared towards first-time writers). So if anyone would have some explanation about what's considered "winning" or even just "completing" a game would be helpful. 

Thanks! I'm excited to do some more exploring.
