    Ashes and Thunder

    Sounds fitting for a fantasy world. I have seen "Ashes" specifically used in one work, where it has both historical and religious relevance, referencing a dark period of the continent's history where ash covered the entire land, an event attributed to angry gods.

    Writing I think I wrote myself into a corner

    Limit the information avalible to him? There is only so much he can learn from a library, if the library is drowning in Naruto smut BL fanfiction. Or if he can't access the library in the first place.

    Is it just me or do anyone else get turned off when authors bring irl politics and their nationalists jingoism to novels

    In moderation, it's tolerable. In many cases, when authors start voicing their nationalism and opinion on politics through their characters, it's not in moderation. So I'm going with "Yes, it's a turn-off".

    It's body manipulation or martial arts FFS

    Now I'm wondering how that could be unless your oponent is alergic to oranges, and you only prepared against the lactose intolerant. :blob_teehee:

    Glossary usage

    Glossaries are so underused, I never check them unless the author points it out.

    Its not LitRPG, how to call it.

    It is both LitRPG and cultivation. You only replaced more traditional levels and stats of LitRPG with cultivation-related ones, but the way you describe it and with the stat sheet shown, it absolutely fits LitRPG. And with how the the two are merged, I would not even call it GameLit, which is...

    Is there an upper or lower limit on the word count of a story that you prefer not to cross when reading?

    I would not say there is an upper limit I won't read, as long as there is an ending and the contents can keep me interested, but stories with thousands of chapters and no clear distinction between individual books/arks are discouraging even if they do get finished.

    Would u guys be interested in reading this?

    I was under the impression translations are technically allowed, as long as they are clearly marked as such and are "hidden", only to be linked from NU or other such sites, but not appearing on the front page? That said... This is where you lost me. But supposedly there is some audience for BL...

    Making Up Random Names to Find It Isn't Actually Random

    I believe that is the case. Over the years I came up with multiple "random" names for various characters, by stringing together mostly random letters until I got a result I liked... all of them I eventually found already exist in one language or another, with most of them being relatively common...

    Making Up Random Names to Find It Isn't Actually Random

    It's funny, if you rely on your brain to make up random stuff, you will never get a truly random result. At best your brain will approximate patterns it is already familiar with.

    Can a mecha be considered a character?

    If the mecha talks to you, you had enough catnip. But it is a character.

    Standalone short stories

    Nothing stops you from posting them. You would not be the first, nor the last. You probably won't get as many readers as long-running series, but SH does allow them and has the corresponding tags (Oneshot/Short Story).

    What makes a good story on this website?

    For SH in general, LitRPG, harem, smut, optionally cultivation. As long as you have those tags, quantity of chapters is more important than quality, and you are sure to find readers. For me personally, of course theme is important, but so are proper world building and (main) characters. Writing...

    [Spaceship question] Which one is quicker to upgrade?

    Armour plating is just the external "skin" of the ship. You strip it off and weld on a new one, or just slap on additional plating on the existing. It could also increase the mass of your ship significantly (generally undesirable), but it would be relatively quick and simple. For shields, you...

    The validity of free steam key websites

    It's cheaper to just wait for a discount and buy the game the proper way. You can slave away on those surveys/ad watching/whatever the particular scheme is, earning a fraction of a fraction of the worth of your time while giving away personal information, and not even being sure you will get...

    Zombie Physics question?

    A lot of the stunning effect is from how electricity affects muscles, not brains. More muscle mass usually means stronger effect. Translating this to (non-magical) zombies, e.g. bodies in various states of decay, it is likely their muscle mass would have deteriorated, and so it would not affect...
