Depending on how quickly Brightly's goes up it looks like we will remain on schedule,

 

[brightlyiburn]

So much for remaining on schedule!
I am so ticked off. Nothing I've submitted for more than a week now has gone up!
Fuck the schedule, I say. And if they don't like it, well, it wasn't our fault it got screwed up to begin with!
I can't tell you when my chapter of the chain story will be up, but at the rate they're going, I'm going to say probably never.

 

[Goldeniangel]

yeah

i've had a lot of stories that have been like stuck. mine are finally starting to go back up but it did take like a week... i guess that's their own problem though. i dont know what they're doing but it seems like such a small amount of new stories are getting posted every day. course, on some days i have LOT of stories get posted! i guess it just depends.

*HUGS*

 

[LuciousBi-Writes4U]

Relax

relax....
you submitted by the 19th right...
you did your job just like i did mine...
they didn't

now.... there are a couple things.... my part still has an N for new next to it.... so they might not post yours until my N is gone....meaning 7 days after my post ....to give each part it's own seperate chance at the voting....
(even though all of us know it doesn't matter....becuase we all live on the H lists around here anyway! LOL )

#2- we all continue writing our parts so that way when it comes time by our schedule again..... we can submit right on time or early....

#3-brightly you can e-mail us yours so that we can see where the story is going and then we can pick up writing our own part 2's.....i think that i can right my part two and thenk just tie my beggining into golden's last few sentences very easily...just rework or add a few new lines a the very beggining...(see what i mean??)

PM LAUREN HYNDE....(NOT LAUREL) AND ASK HER IF YOU NEED TO GO INTO THE PENDING LINK ON THE STORY AND MODIFY THE NOTES FEILD TO SAY THIS IS A CHAPTER OF A CHAIN STORY THAT IS ALREADY BEHIND IN BEING POSTED....

She Had me do that and they had mine up that same day.....but don't do it without checking with her first ....cause if you push it it will send your story to the back of the list as if you had just submitted it....

and lastly....you to relax... it isn't worth the stress...every part of the story so far had hit the hot list.... i am sure the rest will too.....

and try turning in an illustrated piece to get posted....both my poem and my story with illustrations have been submitted for 2 weeks ...2 has 3 views the other 5 and still both are pending...........everything is slow.... but it is a free site......so we can't really complain toooooo much!
talk to you ladies soon....

[MissLusty]

Brightly, I feel your frustration.

I've been waiting for your piece to go up before I post mine.

It is very annoying when you submit a schedule via Lit's request and they are the ones that end up buggering it up, but I have to agree with Luscious, it's a free site and while this is annoying I'm just grateful that Literotica exists.

I say to hell with the schedule, we write what we want when we want.

From now on I'm gonna be a rebel and say that as long as you continue to communicate with this board reguarly, we just write this chain as we feel like it.
However so that things don't get caught up, each person has a time limit of a month???

How does this sound to everyone. I'm seeing Literotica's requests in a new light today, rather than rules...there guidlines.
Incase anyone doesn't know, Lit has a requests that each chain story parts be submitted at least fortnightly. They give no reason for this, plus chain stories wane according to the number of participants. Some of the older chains have months between submitions. (Not that we'd let this chain get that bad).

Let me know what everyone thinks about the new plan. Personally it will give me a bit more time to hash out my part.

 

[Goldeniangel]

that sounds fine to me!

the way i figure it we're doing pretty good organizing on our own anyway, and it's not our fault if they're messing up. and besides, as long as we still send the stuff to each other so that the nesxt chapter can get written adn submitted then who cares? just as long as they come out before the contest is over!

i really just odnt understand why they're reading these entires but NOT posting them. it makes no sense to me whatsoever... who knows. there were only like 15 new posts today, but ALL of my stories got read through again. i just dont get it.

*HUGS*

 

[brightlyiburn]

Well, regardless of Literotica being free or not, this sort of thing is very irresponsible for a site with so much traffic. I'm not saying they're not allowed to have problems...of course they are. But they have not acknowledged what's going on at all! There should be a message along the lines of "We're experiencing some delays in updating right now, please bear with us" on the front page, but there isn't.
That's poor relations with the writers here, and with the readers. Because my readers have mentioned that they've noticed a problem with the site in general, which means other people are as well.
At least my readers no longer blame me for Literotica being slow. Nothing like getting a feedback in the morning: "Are you like, on leave or something!?"
If my chapter isn't up by, say, 3 PM eastern tomorrow (one of my submissions finally went up today around noonish) I'll send it to Lusty so she can get started again. Because I'm focusing on my characters' relationship, I left a lot of space for Lusty to decide whether to continue her story as part of the same meeting or move on to next week's meeting.

Down with schedules!!! Woooo! Lusty'll have us burning our bras next!
Schedules suck, anyway.

Dang Brightly, you foiled my next devious plot!! (stops midway pulling my bra off)

I felt that it was time to say to hell with convention and do this our own way!

I agree that there should be some sort of message, just to inform writers that there is a hitch in the program, so that we know not to expect our pieces up in a timely manner.

Brightly, I laughed when I read that feedback...ah the obnoxiousness of readers!

Golden, I have no doubt that everything on this chain will be done before the contest is over. Not everyone will take the whole month to submit. And as long as we keep in touch on the forum, I forsee no problems.
As for what their doing reading through them and not posting them up, I have no idea what's happening there. All I know is it's some kind of conspiracy.

 

[Goldeniangel]

damn, i was looking forward to burning my bra too!

ah well. =) hee hee, dont worry i'm sure they'll have the stuff up by the contest... i was just being... uh what's teh word... facetious? that's a big word. i hope i used it correctly! lol

at any rate, i have noticed that when i occasionally write in going "hey,w hat's going on, my story has been submitted forever and i have people asking me whats' up?" to the webmaster or whatever, the contact email, that my story that i'm talking about will usually be up within the next day or two. but i dont do that unless it really has been awhile.

*HUGS*

 

[brightlyiburn]

Look, look, look!!! It's a miracle!!! It's finally up!! YAY!!!

[MissLusty]

Oh the joy!
Brightly I got your email of the chapter, loved it.
I'm currently writing mine right now.

But I'm in a delema (spelling?), I'n not sure if I want to use my male character in this chapter or wait to see if we might be doing more than two rounds.

Oh and remind me to fit in my story with Brightly's. Last night when I got writing I really wanted to get through the sex scene that I was in so I carried on from where I had left off, I need to write a beginning that goes along with hers.

Time Table

Chapter 1- Lusty 13th feb - 21st feb******DONE
Chapter 2- Golden 22nd feb - 1st Mar******DONE
Chapter 3- Luscious 2nd Mar - 10th Mar******DONE
Chapter 4- Brightly 27th Mar******Done
Chapter 5- Lusty
Chapter 6- Golden
Chapter 7- Luscious
Chapter 8- Brightly

You'll notice that at Brightly's chapter 4 I've changed how this has been set out. We all know why. From now on dates will be when the piece is finally on Literotica.
As we haven't heard from Luscious I'm assuming that all of this is alright with her. We haven't really heard from her since we started our rebellion, I hope this hasn't upset her!

 

[Goldeniangel]

heh heh, doubtful... she seems like the rebellious type to me! =D

yay! i'm so glad it's up, i'mgonna go check it out now! =D

*HUGS*

 

[brightlyiburn]

Hey, what's up? How's the writing going, Lusty?
I feel out of the loop. Do we know what's going on? I'm so confuzzled, damnit.

Don't feel out of the loop, you're not missing anything.
I've started my next chap but haven't gotten much done I just had an endoscopy last thursday, that combined with end of term tests means that my desire to write has been nil.

However we do each have a month(about 30 days) to write our chapter and I just started my month on the 27th March.
I figured we'd count the month from the day the last person's chapter was posted.

What the hell are you guys talking about????
I did my chapter and waited to read brightly's when it cam eout and it was wonderful...I'm already starting on my next chapter....it will probably e ready by the 7th or 8th....

i don't know what you're talking about about a rebellion so you'll have to clue me in... leave me PM's if you need me for anything... i'm on and off of Lit a 100 times a day... i just don't always check the forum.... sorry!

golden and i talk just about everyday as well...so if you need to get a message to me tell her as well since we e-mail back and forth all the time...

it is a conspiraracy.... both of my ilustrated pieces took two weeks each and 16 views each before they got posted.....any body else guess that someone was to busy getting jollies out of my naked pics to convert my eord file and get those suckers posted???? LOL
i have had 3 stories sitting in my box saying pending approval since kast monday...7 days now ........it's getting ridiculous around here!
ps if you have a seccond go look at my new illustrated story digital dreams... it's gotten like 40,000 views since saturday morning....
I'm gonna continue writing mine and then Lusty when your's is done i will taylor my begining to go with your ending....... but I'm on it... sorry about last month... i was kinda having a lttle trouble about where to take the story and a bit of writers block....but once i got it started it flowed and was done in 48 hrs from start to finish....
for the past two weeks i have been writing like a mad person though... so i don't for see any w.block issues this time! If i don't write for 4 or 5 days i get out of my rythum and then it takes a while to get back into it....
so i'm keeping it going this time.... LOL
talk to you all soon.... and you know i am the easy going type... do what you want....I'm here....i'll write my part... and then i'm outtie again working on something else until it's my turn again! LOL
see ya's.....

 

[brightlyiburn]

Wait, a month? Did I miss something? I can't wait another three months to write another chapter in this thing. I will be lynched by my readers.

Here was the original post when it was first the time limit was first mentioned and all post that replied to it where giving the sign of go ahead. Apart from Luscious who was awol.
But like I said before, not everyone will take a month, some may post quicker than others.

see ya's.....

That's fine Luscious, the month is not a rule it's a guideline. Some might take the whole month some might submit the first day. It's entirely up to you, it's just been implemented to give writers some space for writing, editing and submitting.

Good to have you back. I though you have lost interest, great to see that that's not the case.

 

[LuciousBi-Writes4U]

hey...
no I haven't lost interest...just got busy right before the holiday and through the easter weekend... been trying t write as much as possible in the process too...

I don't know if I told you guys or not, but i am putting together my first collection...trying to formamy manuscript and everything to the publishers specifications is a bitch and i want to submit by the end of may so that my 1st erotic book can be available for my birthday in Aug. ....nice b-day gift to myself i thought....

I wish you luck with your collection I hope it gets accepted, who are you trying to get it published with??
Don't worry to much, just touch base with us once in a while and that would be great.
I think the only reason I worried was that up till then you had been on Lit almost every day?? or near to that and all of a sudden you dropped from the face of the earth. But everything's fine now. If we don't hear from you in a bit I know that your working on your collection or playing with your 2-6 year old, lol.

 

[LuciousBi-Writes4U]

Lol

hey,
thanks for the understanding.
I'm going with iuniverse...for the erotica...working with highlights for the kiddie articles! LOL my latest one is about Alpaca's LOL
take care...
T

 

[LuciousBi-Writes4U]

what's been submitted....what hasn't....

hey ya ladies.....

so... where are we on the chapters??? Lusty have you submitted yet???

Just getting a feel for everything you probably have knowing how lit is these days ... I have 9 or 10 stories pending in my box right now!! JEZZZ talk about slow....

let me know... talk to ya soon.... T

 

[MissLusty]

My chapter hasn't been submitted yet. I'm having a lot of trouble. My character's don't want to do what I had planned and finally after a lot of resistance I've let them have their way.
Right now I don't know where my story is going but looking back on what I've written it seems a bit jerky. It's in need of some serious editing to smooth things out.

*sigh* damn stubborn characters, foiling my plans like that, they have no respect for their maker!!!
