Can we have a story page where you can submit stories of any genre? On the Submit page, it had to be (     ) characters so that people don't just put in a story like, There was a princess, the end. And, for every story you submit, you could get like, maybe 5 EXP points. I was thinking this since this is a story kind of site, for example, CYS.

Additional ideas, for every 300 or maybe less viewers, you could get a 5 point bonus.

Also, we can maybe have a forum for it and we could discuss the stories written. The stories might be able to give people ideas for story games too...

Really, I have to have nonexistant characters?  That's really odd.  I have a question though.  Why post a linear story, when you can branch it out into a storyline the user can follow in his/her way?

Not really nonexistant..

About your question..

There are TONS of unpublished games, left unpublished because the authors does not know or is too lazy to be any more into the games. It is hard to make choices, so why not make a story? I mean, I've been looking at CYS for a while, and why not a story? Plus, stories are choice-free and lets the author use his imagination and write whatever he/she wishes.

If you don't get my answer, then it's ok. I'm kinda confused too >.<

I get it.

nonexistant as in (   ) thing.  You didn't provide a #.  Thus, I declared it's nonexistant.

Still though, you do have the forums to write stories if you want to.

Right right, but you see....POINTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Instead of writing worthless stories, you can get points for writing stories!!!! Plus, stories could be like games...ex: feature stories.

Couldn't you just do this with the existing editor? Just link one page to the next?

It wouldn't really be a choose your story ... but you could always clearly mark it as non-interactive and see how it plays out to the users?

Yeah, but I don't think people would actually read all that. They would probably just click on the links so they can get to the ending where the end game and leave comments is. Some people aren't like that, but I know most are..

I think somebody already posted something similiar to this about adopting a game. I don't really get you though.

It's not about adopting a story.  It's about having a section for book-like stories.

Oh, yeah, I suppose that'd be alright.
