The Authors' Hangout National Nude Day Support Thread

[YoursSINSerely]

My God! Miss a week here and you miss alot. I'm not going back and reading 300 posts of chatter. I'll just have to wing it and look for the supportive parts.

 

[DG Hear]

Overnight I gained a few votes and my score fell by .01. Either I haven't been swept yet, or my trolls are quite sincere in their votes.

There's been a few minor changes in my votes. Up a few down a few. This is the last day to submit a story in the contest. After today we may see a few major sweeps. I'll see if there are any big sweeps. I have 555 votes at present. Had a high of 569 about a week ago. Score has been holding rather steady. Up .01 then down point .01.
By the way, liked your story Sweet thing (witch) LOL.

Thank you, sweetie.

Quite a Contest

I think this one has the broadest range of content and the highest standard of any since I started competing. I'm taking a break from reading to watch the World Cup final. Go the Dutch. Or the Spanish. Ehh... go the Dutch and the Spanish!

Anyway, ogg and glynndah made me laugh, DG and LBD50 restored my faith in romance and Cedar Needle proved how hot human/elf hybrids can be. Then Tx took me by surprise in the playhouse, litfan got exhibitionist at the art exhibit and SciChi combined scientific geekery with cosmic romance to supurb effect. Oh yes, and theravenfox distracted me immoderately during breakfast. I almost spilt my Cornflakes.

Thanks to everyone for a highly entertaining catch-up Sunday. I'll be taken in more during the week...

 

[Jaymal]

Oh yes...

...and Mia's Fox Hunt rocks. But I already knew that.

And, I have 27, down from my high of 28.

 

[UltimateSwitch]

I've got 64, down from a high of 71, and i am not getting anymore, which is bumming me out becuase this is my first story to end at under 4.0 but hey, it was fun.

 

[Tio_Narratore]

I was going along quite nicely, and then I got trolled. Have had plenty of readers since then, but only 1 new vote in the past 36 hours or so.

Why do you think you won't get any more? The voting extends for a week after the contest closes to entries, doesn't it?

Lots of Reads

This competition seems to be getting lots of reads, at least for me.

My Halloween story, 9 months later has less than 20K reads (of course BDSM cat is limiting) but Almost Caught! is sitting right around 30K, with around 400 votes. Recently lost some votes and score even slipped a bit, but it's pretty steady.

Time for me to go make sure some worthy stories get a few more reads...

 

[theravenfox]

I spent the entire day out at the lake with the hubby and kiddos. I am sunburned (forgot to reappy the SPF 50 and redheads fry.) However, as I was acquiring a few more freckles on my flipside, the hubby came up with an AWESOME (I think anyway) idea for an audio. It was inspired by our surroundings...namely the beautiful wooded area shading the picnic tables. So, with fingers as quick as a rabbit (vibrator) I shall try to get it written, recorded, edited and submitted before the deadline. The five hour countdown started nine minutes ago. If I make it, it's going to be called Wild In The Wild.

Wish me luck!

Hey Tio! Congrats. Your membership card and secret decoder ring should be arriving shortly. The "Good"Witch got a strange rambling ALt accusation I believe and I was accused of being andtheend Pick an ALT we gotta million of them!

And I as well... I am supposed to have another story in the contest.... can someone tell me who else I am so I can five bomb my other submission? I simply have no clue who to waste my vote on.

No wait I want that last place trophy... so I should one bomb my other self.... sheesh I'm getting so confused.

 

[littleblackdress50]

I have to say there are a lot of great stories out there this time.

Thoroughly enjoyed Glynndah's witty story and RavenFox's audio. LittleBlackDress's Aaron's Association was a great premise and a fun read. And of course I'm a big fan of most of D G Hear's work and I wasn't let down. All got my 5's.

More good reads: Consulting Trip Surprise (m_storyman_x) and Embracing Duality by Cedar Needle (almost TOO good for a contest entry.) Wouldn't be surprised at all to find Embracing Duality in the top 3.

Favorite so far is Halley, by ShyChiWriter. Not a big Sci-Fi an, but it blew me away. Nice.

I don't follow the politics, or Alt scandals on here. Just had to say I'm enjoying reading a lot of these stories. Lots more reading to do. Good luck to all in the contest!

Thanks Tx... I am honored to be listed among such greats.

 

[littleblackdress50]

Finally finding time to read again! Still behind but trying!!!

Congrats to you as well. Another secret decoder ring and membership card are flying out (thanks for the borrow of the monkey Glynndah, if that is who you really are!) to you momentarily, so what colour dress does your ALT wear?

I'm really not sure. I think I'll have to wait until someone can tell me who my ALT is before I can help her dress.

naked rainbow

I was reading and commenting on stories last light and I must not have logged off. I swear I wasn't on Lit all night. I may be obsessed w/ contests but not that obsessed!

I'm really impressed with the "tasteful" way people are running around naked in these stories. A lot of likable characters and good fantasy. Been having a lot of crazy summer dreams, so thanks. (And you, and you, and you were there! And you were almost there, you were still coming.)

[size=+2]NUDE DAY 2010 NUMBERS[/SIZE]

Well the contest has finally been closed for submissions!

So what’s the final count? Who entered? Who didn’t? Why?

Only three (3) of the top 100 FAVORITE authors on LITEROTICA entered stories in the EARTH DAY contest. Were more enticed to enter this one?

Here are some numbers:

STORIES ENTERED: 76
AUTHORS ENTERED:60
NUMBER of AUTHORS WHO ENTERED MORE THAN ONE STORY: 6
TOP 100 AUTHORS WHO ENTERED:5
TOP 250 AUTHORS WHO ENTERED:6
UNKNOWNS/NEWBEES/AHers ALTS WHO ENTERED:32
AVERAGE # OF COMMENTS PER STORY: 1.3 (this is after removing comments made by contestants)
AVERAGE STORY QUALITY: Down 17% from 2009, 31% from 2008, and a total of 63% from 2005.

The following were the TOP 100 MOST FAVORITE AUTHORS who entered: #1- sarahhh , #9- sccouries, #28 - Tx Tall Tales, #59 - DG Hear, #61 –Boxlicker.

And while five (5) top 100 authors is better than last contests three (3), in fact a sixty-seven percent increase (67%), the number is still embarrassingly low.

The following authors felt that the LITEROTICA reading public would be well served if more than one of their stories were entered: andtheend (10), ogman (3), SpeedoTwink (3), litfan (2), m_storyman_x (2), a-bent-amersand (2)

By and large they were inaccurate in their assessments of our readers needs!

Various SURVIVOR contestants entered stories (to amass the extra 5 or 10 points needed in that other horrid contest). These authors included (among others, bakedboss, SeanRenaud, aL Ussa, andtheend, theravenfox, boxlicker, and yoursSINSerely.

One author, the infamous rule breaker D.K.MOON, in a direct insult to the LITEROTICA reading public, entered a story with the voting turned off.

We had our first audio contest story in years, one oralated by the lovely ravenfox.

Story quality fell again, continuing a 5 year trend of uninterrupted decline. Informed contest observers credit this decline to one, a tired theme; and two, the unwillingness of so many of LITEROTICA’S best authors to participate. A recent survey of the TOP 100 found that the rampant cheating, and the irregularities and lack of transparency in the voting, have convinced many of the giants to stay on the sidelines.

This year’s quality figures would have shown any even larger decline except for the presence of the FIVE TOP 100 FAVORITES who chose to compete in spite of all the problems. These five put the LITEROTICA reader ahead of their own concerns (perhaps this explains why they’re so FAVORITED?).

Can we ever stop this downward spiral? Or is the LITEROTICA special contest system destined for the dumps and the cheaters and vote fixers who live there?

Does anyone out there have a blueprint for survival?

One thing I can promise you is that james r scouries and every person associated with

[size=+3]

ScouriesWorld

[/size]

will continue to fight to bring back credibility and respect to this once honored institution that has fallen so low.

In the days and weeks ahead I plan to let you know the scourian blueprint for improvement.

Wild In The Wild should be out tomorrow. I believe I made the deadline by the tips of my fingers and the skin of my teeth. I REALLY liked the way it turned out. I hope you do too!

Will be sure to give it a listen..... at least if I can get the sound card fixed in time. Your last submission overheated it!!!

A sweep hit my story. Lost over 50+ votes but the score did go up.

I did have a new story posted today but not in the contest. It's a five chapter story, chapter one is up. One chapter to be submitted each day. I'll be submitting chapter 4 tonight. For anyone who care to read it, it's titled. 'My Way'. It different than most stories that I have posted.

Thank you for PCs

Thank you to all those who left PCs on my two entries.

I hope to get around to reading and voting on all the entries (except mine!) this week.

I'm sorry that two x anonymous disliked Nude Adultery:

The racist first -
Just another fucking whore
To bad she hadn't been stoned to death. Along with all ragheads

And the second who sent a one-word feedback:
Ridiculous

I think that the second might have watched a Harry Potter film and perhaps thinks that my story is about a Boggart.
