Wow, what a freaking joke! Does anyone besides me, think that the contests are fixed?

Excuse my ignorance but what's a "holiday contest"? Am I entered? What won't I win if it's already fixed?
Did you call me? Sorry, I was busy writing and I heard you ask if there was anyone who thought that these contests were fixed.
I wouldn't say fixed but they are certainly not fair.
Contests are won by those who are popular, those with lots of friends and relatives with access to computers, and by those with multiple identities with access to lots of computers.
Yes, I agree that something should be done to make the contests fairer, but certainly, they are not fixed by Laurel, if that's what you mean.
These writing contests are more a popularity contest. I could win a contest if they had the least popular writer contest.
Some of my stories were worthy of a contest win, especially when compared to some of those stories that won contests, but I'd rather not go there. I'd rather bask in positive energy than in negative energy. I'd rather believe the glass is halfway full rather than halfway empty. I'd rather believe that people are inherently good and that there is a Santa Claus.
One day when blue birds sing and there is a rainbow, we will win a contest. Until then, I congratulate the winners on another well deserved contest win. My heart sings for their blue W.
I'm so happy that I could pee myself. Shit, I gotta go get cleaned up. I just peed myself.
Sorry to bust your bubble there Freddie but I've won a few and I don't have a lot of friends or even a lot of relatives for that matter. The contest aren't fixed and they are not all won by AH'er as some have suggested. Most of the winners have never set foot in the AH or visit it rarely.
You write a story, you post it and take your chances. Of course, it helps if you don't piss off half the people on lit.
If all it took was alts and computers/IPs, then your buddy would win them all.
Thank you so much TxRad for pointing out my flaws as to why I haven't won a contest. I appreciate you taking the time to give me helpful pointers. I shall start turning over a new leaf to help make these lunatics, er, I mean, emotionally crazy, sorry, perverts, I mean, wonderful people love me.
My buddy? I have no buddies on this site. Of course you mean my dog. You are silly. My dog doesn't know how to use a computer...or does he? Hold on a second.
"Polo. Here boy. Polo? Where are you? There you are on the computer. What the Hell are you doing? You're the one giving me all those 1 bombs. You're the one erasing all my red H's. Why buddy? Why? Is it because I spend too much time writing stories and not enough time taking you for a walk?"
I gotta go walk my dog. Thanks again TxRad for helping me to understand the inner circle.
By the way, so that I don't get confused next time. Which identities do you have? How many? You're seriously not a man, are you? I figure you're a woman, a lesbian, perhaps.
Hey, I am who I say I am. I'm Bostonfictionwriter. I only have one name and one identity. My real name is Freddie. I don't play games. I'm upfront with people. If they don't like me then...there ain't nothin' I can do about that.
Besides, in case you haven't noticed, this is a porn board. I really don't want to make friends with many of the people who write here.
Now, that should get me really in hot water, huh?
Who cares? I'm not here to make friends. I'm here to write. I have enough friends, real people, who aren't binary coded, multiple identities. Some of these people believe their computer images. Some of these people believe they really look like their cartoonish characters.
I still wanna know though what I won't be winning for not winning whatever contest y'all are talkin' 'bout. Cash prizes? Trips to Disneyworld, or maybe more apropos to this place...Amsterdam? Yohoo enemas from the author of our choosing?
Some of you more learned types here ought to hook up a brotha'. Peruse my story list and enter some of 'em in whatever contests are going on. I'll settle for the "home version of Literotica" board game consolation prize and a wet, sloppy kiss from the vacuous manta ray of a hostess you guys no doubt have filling the obligatory eye candy role...
Dude, it's a message board. I think mandatory drama the lost law of thermodynamics.I'm new to these Literotica waters but even I'm sensing some deep sarcasm in this here thread! You mean to tell me there are message board dramas even here on the Literotica message boards?? Well hotdamn! Is that the sort of cesspool into which I now willingly wade?
In the immortal words of Forrest Gump, "I may not be a smart man but I know sarcasm when I see it, Jennay!"

Sweet! I luvs me some good message board dramas.

You enter most of the contests yourself. You can find out what contests are running on the home page. You might want to come with a good multivote strategy (it's advisable to spend more time on that than on the quality of your entry).
Now, there's sarcasm (lol).
Multivote strategy? Do you have any pointers that you can share? TxRad was kind enough to point out my personality flaws. I figure that once I get everyone to love me and use your multivote strategy, I'll be winning contests. Wow! I'm so friggin excited that I could pee. Shit...I just peed again. I'll be right back.
You have a talent for misreading. I said nothing about having a multivote strategy myself. You apparently do, as your dog is voting too. (At least he seems more discerning than you perhaps are.)![]()
I think that about covers it. Anything else you'd like to know? Would you like for me to vote for you the next time there's some sort of contest here?
You seem like a bitchin' guy.
Like any good politician will you at least share your winnings if I do vote for you?
michchick98, hold up there! You say there's actual money to be had here?? Win a contest here and someone cuts you an actual check? It's not filled in with crayon writing and splooge? It's real?
How much are we talking here anyway?
Otherwise, yeah, you may be right. I didn't even say anything negative to BFW (surely he'd agree I was correct in sensing sarcasm in this thread, which was all I originally posted before he came back accusing me of being someone's troll) and yet he immediately got all cunty towards me. It sounds like he might be one of those people where it's always big fun to wind them up and watch them spin out.
He might be wound just a bit too tightly, you say? On a website devoted to fuck stories? Hmmm.
Bostonfictionwriter, you wanna know "whose sock puppet I am?" Am I to take it that you think I'm somebody else's troll here or something?
Sorry, sport, it's just me. This is the only nic under which I've posted here. I'm nobody's troll and to the best of my knowledge nobody's ever trolled here as me. I've been reading stories here for about five years but I only broke down and submitted a story of my own in September of this year. Since then I've submitted a total of eighteen stories, with two others pending approval as we speak. Point of fact, my original stories have all done very well so far. The only ones that didn't receive the "Hot" rating were my three "request" stories, plus one original story which included a decidedly unpopular request scene. The other fifteen all scored very well and no, I don't know a single other person here. I also only own one computer and I don't know dick about scamming together a bunch of phony votes for myself so I doubt I'd do very well in any contest here.
Nobody even knows me here, and vice versa.
Wait. That's not entirely true. Unfortunately I did manage to piss off a very petty and vocal group of the self appointed Morality Brigade and they got together (twice in two months now) to sabotage my entire catalog. Three of my stories across two different story categories twice achieved the #1 ranking on '"Top Lists" and half a dozen more were in the top five overall before those childish fuckwits sabotaged all my stories with a slew of "0" scores.
Lessee, what else? I love USC football, I'm a guitarist whose two favorite players are SRV and Guthrie Govan (thus the stevieraygovan nic), I have a house full of dogs and cats, I love long walks on a moonlit beach full of naked chicks and my wife was just declared totaly disabled at a Social Security hearing last week...which sucks balls. Her being totally disabled, I mean, not just the fact that SS finally put their belated rubber stamp of approval on it.
I think that about covers it. Anything else you'd like to know? Would you like for me to vote for you the next time there's some sort of contest here? I will, if you want me to. You seem like a bitchin' guy. Like any good politician will you at least share your winnings if I do vote for you?
In that case...I'm please to meet you Steve. Please ignore the troll below called Michchick. She follows me around from thread to thread. She's like shit in that regard. Only, she's lonely. She doesn't have a man. I feel bad for her, so I ignore her.
How much are we talking here anyway?
Not strictly correct, sr. The first five places in Survivor get actual money, from then on to fifteenth it's $25 Amazon gift certificates.
The end of year Readers Choice Awards also get Amazon certificates.
Monthly winners and special contest winners are real money.
Steve, a quick rundown to get you up to speed on two years worth of petty forum postings:
BFW is LIt's very own whinge machine - his stories are all bombed because he is hated, not because they're crap (which some of them undoubtedly are). He isn't interested in prize money but bitches long and loud about contests and who wins them. He is the most hated person on the site, but it's not his fault, everyone gangs up on him because he's written over 500 stories, not because he can't carry a conversation without getting extremely rude and personal. But that's all a mistake, it was a joke and he's the only one with a decent sense of humour here.
Oh, and Survivor was stolen from him last year (because someone came in late and within the rules) and will be stolen from him this year (because BFW can't follow the rules), and it's all because everyone hates him, but it doesn't matter because he doesn't need the money, h'es got more money than he knows what to do with. He won the lottery you know and he's rich. And he gives time to the homeless shelter down the road. And he has a wife, a girlfirend and a mistress and they're all ecstatically happy that he spends his every waking moment writing stories for a porn site.
And everyone's out to get him, that's why all his stories are bashed and his red Hs removed and he can't catch a break and he's going to write thousands of stories to win Survivor, but they won't be 750 words, oh no - they'll be real stories because they're longer than that. But it's not about the money or winning, it's all about the stories.
He lives to write.
It think that about covers it.
Oh, and one other thing - I'm emotionally disturbed. So is michchick, and PrincessErin and sr71plt and anyone else who calls him on his bullshit.
