Hello! I am kind of new to the site, and I was wondering - is it possible to set a variable as a word? I am creating a storygame where I want to have readers be able to pick their name, and I don't know how to do that. Any help?

There are no string variables, so the only solution is to use multiple variables each corresponding to a letter in the name as well as a rather large bit of on-page code whenever you need to display the name. It's explained in this article.

Thank you!

...

Oh, god.

Warriors fan, by chance?

By chance? Definitely.

Well, that sucks. :\

Why?

WC here is a bit like Sonic: everything made about it after the first few is so eye-gougingly horrible that even the "good" old ones get shittier in hindsight every day.

Well, let me explain. This site has a lot (And I mean a LOT) of, well, shitty Warriors story games. Many members have come to despise the Warriors story games. So many Warriors games. All of them are the same.

Then the ones that create these story games dislike these horrifyingly bad games don't like criticism (even the constructive kind).

So there.

Well...I hope I may be able to create a storygame that is about Warriors and not shitty. If not, please inform me.

Even if you do- so many Warriors stories members are tired of seeing them. Why don't you go write about something like dragons or Redwall?

Your "Fairest Of them All" story idea looks a little different from the norm. Who doesn't want to play as a superficial narcissistic pretty goddess?

I'd recommend working on that story.

Listen to Endy, he is the Master of story games.

...was that sarcasm? I can never tell...

No, it wasn't.

Okay, good. "Fairest of Them All" is my first fantasy story, so I tried to make it very original. I'm trying...

Seriously it wasn't sarcasm.

The goddess story seems like it has potential.

Thank you. *bows*

Actually, women courtsey. Men bow.
