Yes, yes, of course. Just ... I'm assuming that at that rate they probably like almost anything.
It's just one of those moments when one's ego gets a useful adjustment, that's all.

I concur.
Some of these people haven't taken their medication. Let's see what happens now...

Mestral's Adventures -Chapter 3
It's the pon far chapter! D. wanted to know whether "he [Mestral] spent enough time with Maggie at Carbon Creek for a fledgling bond to begin to form." I think you are going to like the way Silverbullet handles this. It feels "just right."
Also chapter 4 of this story just needs a quick edit for punctuation and it is otherwise ready. The story gets rolling!
I'm donating my body to science fiction.
Re: fanfiction.net
Has anyone else had trouble with fanfiction.net lately? I may have overestimated the interest in my stories, by I've never gone an entire week with absolutely nothing on Reader Traffic. I know it was down for about 4 days last month, too, because I got several reviews for a story that showed it had no reader traffic. I don't think it's my computer because I've posted several stories for Silverbullet during these periods and his reader traffic seems to be doing just fine. What am I doing wrong?

Yeah, it's been acting weird the last week or so.

Re: fanfiction.net
My story seems to be fine. But opposite happening to mine. Over 700 hits since last Monday no reviews. I know people are reading because I keep getting notices for alerts but they just don't say anything. And the alerts I have set up are showing up in my email so I assume the system is working okay. Although I have had problems recently with long delays after i receive those notices and when the chapters are actually available to read.

Re: fanfiction.net
That happened to me in the midst of some missing scenes last month and I sent them an email. It got fixed that night, but I don't know if that was just a coincidence since they didn't respond. The stats were never fixed, however, so I guess that's just a big blank hole. (I also know they're messed up because I received reviews the same days I had zero visitors.)
The proportion of people who review at ff.net is abysmal, especially since out of the universe of kind people who leave reviews, most will have already reviewed you here. The proportion seems even lower, though, if you look at hits instead of visitors, because some folks take multiple tries to get through a longer piece, or if you have multiple chapters, they're (hopefully) reading each one, and each chapter will count as a separate hit. Also, this stat obviously includes people who just pop in to try something and then pop out.

Re: fanfiction.net
I always look at the least read chapter to get a gauge of how many actual readers I get. Funny, the least read chapters are always smut-free. I wonder why?

The persons that just pop in en pop out - are those the hits? I have a difference between my hits and vistors on FFnet and I wondered about it.Alelou wrote:Also, this stat obviously includes people who just pop in to try something and then pop out.

Re: fanfiction.net
Visitors is the truest count of number of people who see your story. Hits include each time someone come back. So in a multiple-chapter story, you'll have a lot more hits than visitors. In a short one-shot, the numbers will be a lot closer. Long stories sometimes take readers multiple stops to get through, so those get more hits, too.
If you look up your story stats, you can see how many hits each chapter gets. Honeybee is right that you can kind of figure your number of sustained readers by the chapter with the lowest number. At any rate, you'll notice a real drop-off from the first chapter to the second as some people just try your story and then bail because they read the warnings or they can see it's not their thing. (A/T'Polers for example!)

I always suspected people come back to re-read dirty parts!
