THE NUMBERS MASON
>>27537985
You need to lurk more before posting again.
4chan has pretty strict etiquette. If you don't follow it then expect to be mocked mercilessly.
Being new is no excuse. Just read more and post less until you understand the culture here.
>>27537985
>>27538007
Alright. Thanks, I guess i'll watch more posts to learn etiquette here. I did start using this site awhile ago.
So... thanks.
wew
>>27538018
I know. You are so obviously new that it hurts. I assume you're the same guy who asked about which quests to read last thread, no?
Might I ask where you came from? Derpibooru is a common place due to one attention whore we have...

It's a little dated. Not all of it, but some.
>>27538018
>>27538042
No, sorry i'm not that guy. I've been for like... two weeks maybe. But, I will say I am from the Derpibooru site and go on Something Awful from time to time. And, I already frequent a lot of different quests, mostly CYOA's but I guess they are technically the same thing.
If i'm wrong go ahead and throw stones at me.
>>27538083
It doesn't even mention that "love & tolerate" was originally a phrase coined on /co/ basically to take the piss out of each other.
>>27538053
>>27538088
Okay, That made me laugh!
>>27538058
This as well.

You're the guy who capitalizes "I", but not in "i'm". Fuck you.

What are you from like 2002 or something? Do they still make you pay $10 to post?
>>27538108
>>27538113
No, I don't think so. They put up a paywall on the site every so often, basically they say I need to pay to go on the site. But, they put it down after a few weeks or months.
>>27538112
...shit, I've been spotted!
Yeah, It's a common mistake I make.
These CYOAs need more cuddling.

You are correct good sir!
I'll just get out of everyone's way and let this thread do what it was made to do.
>>27538172
Let's see...
The first one I read was... Coltquest.
Then: Super, 11-54, Alchemy, Hijack, Across the Ocean, Boatquest, Vampony, Bard quest, Just Another Day, and Tinepone.
>>27538211
>The first one I read was... Coltquest.
Not even surprised.
What's your favorite?
>>27538211
>>27538238
I'll probably get killed for this but... it's Super Pony.

>>27538172
Colt Quest, DitA, Entrapment, 11-54, Life in Ponyville, Sheriff Breaburn, Stable Quest, Celestia Quest, and Fallout Venus.
>>27538423
>>27538211
I've actually read Fallout Venus. Pretty good story.
>>27538444
Yeah it is. So Colt Quest was your first? It was my second after Stable Quest died.
>>27538211
>The first one I read was... Coltquest.
Do you still play that one?
>>27538500
>>27538444
Yeah, before I came here I went to Derpibooru as I've said before, I found a picture of it there and learned the term of CYOA. So far I've spent the last two weeks reading different CYOAs that seemed interesting.
>>27538523
Yes.
>>27538531
Well welcome aboard. I hope you enjoy your time here.
>>27538534
So how is it going? I haven't played it in a bit.
>>27538541
So far I've had. I've been thinking of starting my own CYOA but I've been having doubts about it.
>>27538548
Oh? what's it about?
>>27538547
It's been going well. I would say what has happened, but there are other people here and I don't want to spoil it for them if they haven't gotten that far.
>>27538548
>So far I've had
Then you haven't been around long enough.
>>27538556
Well... It's about a pony who well, dies in the beginning, and about a hundred years later wakes up to find himself as a wooden puppet with the knowledge of necromancy. He then finds a foal and some fun later they become necromancers.
So, it's a story about necromancy.
>>27538569
About two weeks, possibly three.
>>27538585
So far, the premise itself doesn't feel like it could make the thing fail
You have my benediction to try
>>27538585
If only you didn't write like an absolute fagtron.
>>27538585
yawn
>>27538628
Thanks! But, don't expect it right away. I need to work up the courage to do it, and to read the 4chan rules again.
I was also a writer on fimfiction, but that failed badly.
>>27538585
>>27538658
Sounds interesting. If you ever do it I would be interested in checking it out.
>>27538585Neat.
>>27538658
Am writer,and frankly writing isn't even similar to QMing.
Biggest issue I ran into was prompts,i often got carried away and didn't know where to stop and make a >what do you do and end the post.
So I ended up typing 300 words for one post which slows down the CYOA.
>>27538658
Well in the best case the players will write a good chunk of the story for you in their choices and interactions.
>>27538628
>>27538685
>>27538699
Wow... I wasn't expecting people to like this idea... well this just inspired me to do it even more! So, thanks.
Summer has begun so I'll definitely do it!
...I might need help since I've never written a CYOA before. Can somebody just give a couple of pointers for this thing, I'll appreciate it very much!

>>27538880
Thank you, I needed that! And, I promise it will be soon. I just need to finalize the thing (MCs, THE NAME!), and jot down some guidelines for myself: like don't dictate the story to hard.
(When this goes up and one of you from here like it, and I try to dictate it. Slap me in the face. HARD! Then I'll slap myself.)
If this isn't put up in a week or something like that... try to remind me and kick me in the balls for it.
>>27538918
did that cyoa went well?
>>27538946
QM still posts in sekrit but I haven't heard if she's going to continue it.
what you guys thinking of >>27503514 ? it's by first CYOA, but not my first green, so say what you need to say.
>>27539014
Well, a CYOA is not a green, so I don't know what's the point in calling it that way.
Kalashnikov holding a Kalashnikov.
Wonderful.
Also, Good so far. i hope you got a plan for the outcome instead of coming up with it as you go.
>>27539027
it's only to warrant that i've taken actual criticism before. not a reflection as my skills as an author.
I know this is like three weeks late, but at least it's finally done.

Bats a shit
>>27541079
Ok anon, look. We've gone over this time and time again. It has not only been established, but is practically CANON that bats not only are the best race, but posses large asses and have a penchant for fruit. So before you go spewing that kind of ignorant talk again, just remember that at this very moment a bat is consuming a mango with its fangs
>>27541110

yes because there is little point to do so right now, the chat is in irc. if you had actually joined you'd know that the link to the stream is in the topic, literally the first thing you'll see.

Which quest is the most serious?

>>27545884
And nips would be the first one to tell you that.
He also said that one of the reasons its taken him so long to get back to cyoa-ing, is because he feels like hes gotten slower when he draws, and that his players "deserve better" or something, so hes been trying to get faster

>Qm question:

I don't want to play as John Smith, especially if he isn't even a smith.
