Counting in binary allows you to very easily reach quite high numbers this way. Alternatively, if you have good control of your fingers and can bend them at a joint without having the others move as well, you could go with trinary or higher.

As sound is the movement of particles, typically through the air, it is quite possible that wind mages would provide defense against it, especially if they were already trying to disrupt ranged attacks such as arrow volleys. If it was powerful enough, however, it would transmit through the...

As someone who used to game on dial-up, sometimes in FPS games, I have often thought of this, and imagined it would be interesting. Not personally interested in writing it, however.

As an occultist, I have to say that demons are similar to humans. Some are good, some neutral, and some evil. Many have different forms of morality, which as mentioned before, can drastically change how they act and how others view them. If they choose to help others, they are good. If they...

I've spent a large chunk of my life reading, and have always had multiple worlds existing in my head at all times. Eventually, I read A Tail's Misfortune by AuthorSME and talked with them about it, and they inspired me to start writing. Unfortunately, extreme depression makes it incredibly...

Personally, I don't factor if I like the story or not into it at all, I purely go by quality. 1 - Utterly horrifying and hurts to try to read. 2 - Rampant mistakes in spelling, grammar, and/or logic. 3 - About average, some mistakes here and there, but easily readable. 4 - Very well written...

Like greyblob said, sometimes you may not have updated the bookmark feature, so it says you are on chapter 1, sometimes people follow an author from another site where they already read more and are just reposting a review, sometimes it is just so bad you don't need to read more than one...

Glad to see I'm not the only fan of slings. Horrifically dangerous for how simple they are, it wasn't uncommon for them to shatter bones, or penetrate deep enough they had to get cut out. Plus in many cases, they had longer range than bows. Seen some people using them with some pretty...

Something I find important: things don't exist in a vacuum. Progress won't stop, though it might slow down at times. If you have magic, and/or monsters, consider how they would be used. If people can make fire from nothing, steam power will be really damn common. If you can cool things down...

Think for ages, watch the world unfold in my mind, eventually sit down and write out some of what happened, decide it is big enough for a chapter, done. Editing? Rereading? Revising? Second drafts? BAH!

Think from their perspective. They are likely the hero in their own story, simply misunderstood by the masses. Perhaps they were raised with a different moral system, or see their path as one that has to be done by someone, and no one else is doing it, etc. Or perhaps they are just having...

You need 50 messages, then a while later, it will unlock. (Didn't happen instantly for me at least, but only needs 50. That said, don't spam to get it, just be patient.)

IMO if you are bored of your story, you are doing something wrong, and should probably stop, find something you enjoy more, and work on that instead. Note that being burned out, or having a hard time writing are different, and while still problems, they are not half as bad as being bored of...

Amazon. Maybe not as bad externally, but internally... Worked there for five years because my morals wouldn't allow me to leave. Now you couldn't get me back for $100/hour. When you call over 200 ambulances per year on one shift alone for three years straight, there is a big fucking problem...

All the stories by AuthorSME are amazingly high quality, IMO. I recommend A Tail's Misfortune most, it has tons of fluffy kitsune, as well as other fox spirits. It was also what finally convinced me to start writing. The Oscillation is much more popular, however.

I used NightCafe, which gives you five free credits per day, which is great for poor folks like myself. Heard about it due to K5Rakitan, so if you find it useful thank them.

The image thing REALLY bothers me. At the very least give credit to the artist rather than just "The image isn't mine, if it is yours and you want it removed, sign up for an account and message me here and I will remove it" crap. They do own the characters they create, however, though others...

You could also go with the route I use IRL and use they/them for everyone, as that avoids the male/female issue, and it doesn't reveal anyone who has trusted you with a secret of being trans. Some people do dislike neutral pronouns, however, but I find it offends far fewer people, and helps...

Personally, I just mostly exclude meat, including fake meat. Costs too much for us poor folks. As others have said in lesser forms, I also trust the companies making such things to do everything possible to reduce the quality, including cutting in harmful materials.

Thank you very much for mentioning this one, I've been playing around with it for a few days, and am getting close to having a good picture of the main chars in my story. Everyone else, I highly recommend checking out NightCafe as well, they give you 5 credits per day for free, and just halved...
