The numbers are in.

One of the features I missed about the old chyoo was that it told you how many threads you have in total for each story so after approving a pair of threads from a new writter Torq i decided to have a bit of a count down the story map page.

The Choices We Make had a grand total of 216 threads and Summer Down Under had the greatly more reduced total of 30.

Not bad, not bad. Anybody else done a physical count of their stories?

Maybe I'll do a thread count later, but I just happened to find out that "Endless Summer" is an actual 1966 surfing film...maybe I'll have to watch it for inspiration (or at least background).

Hang ten,

Endless summer?

You never saw that film? Are your parents boomers? Sorry, I was forced to sit through that film about fifty times. Not a bad movie altogether fortunately....

There's one scene in the south of Africa where they're surfing down sand dunes....... Very cool....

[Zingiber]

My numbers as of October 12

Office Morale 32, 15 by me; 2 other authors.

In From The Snow 24, 10 by me; 7 other authors.

Get Me To The Church On Time 21, 15 by me; 4 other authors.

When The Cat's Away 19, 16 by me; 2 other authors.

Counting up threads by author, I have 11 collaborators whose threads comprise over 40% of my stories by count. Thanks to AaronWebster for authoring nearly a third of the contributions in fine style. Looking them over, I can see that I should contribute more to lilguy.

I have a few from Dacia, and I keep peeking at her stories in the hope I get inspired to contribute, so that maybe I can get some more of her work. Thanks Dacia

There are another couple of authors that I should look again at, because I enjoyed their threads and think they might be nice to work with.

Curiously, my "writer" rating appears to depend almost completely on my contributions to The Neighborhood, a popular story with about 10x the number of votes as other stories I've contributed to. Not too much actual feedback in terms of comments, though.

[Torg]

First a clarification. My nickname is Torg, not Torq. It just looks like Torq sometimes.

I like this idea. A thread count would help in looking for stories with lots of choices. Right now I can only use the depth figure as a guess of how full the story is.
Ribbit.

BTW, shouldn't this thread be in the CHYOO Site Feedback section, since it suggests a new feature?

Foolish boy, you assume that anyone ever looks at the suggestion section. Posting it there seems to be a guarantee that it will die a slow, ignored death.

 

[niceguy2002tim]

FUNNY

Jake,
that is such a great line. Very poetic...
