Where Scouries ego is the one and only thing that counts.

QUOTE ace ace So, if your story has five Lit. pages, and a reader reads the whole story, doesn't that register as one view or five?


The reality with regard to VIEWS is as follows:

1) Every time a story is clicked open the stories VIEW count goes up by 5-10 views. The multiplier is applied randomly - not only by day of the week or time of the day but by category also (e.g. an Incest story may get 8 ‘views’ for every click open on Tuesday while a Romance one gets 6. The next day it might be just the opposite).

2)If the reader goes on to the second page the VIEW count goes up by one less than it went up for the first page. If the third page is opened the story gets 2 less VIEWS than the first page got ( i.e. a 7 page gay story that came out on May 13th would have got 5 VIEWS for page 1, 4 for page 2, 3 for page 3, 2 for page 4, 1 for page 5 and -1 for page 6 which equals 14 total VIEWS if every page was opened.

3) Stories whose titles start with this mark – “ – have their VIEWS doubled.

4) Stories that start with a numeric – i.e. 425 Literotica Street – get triple VIEWS. Recently the site has started to reject most stories that start like this.

5) There are ‘bonus’ VIEWS awarded according to a complicated formula. Generally speaking, ‘favorited’ authors benefit from these bonuses more than lesser lights.

So why are the VIEW totals inflated anyway? Well, quite frankly it’s because LITEROTICA conducted a psychological survey of submitting authors some years ago and found some perhaps not surprising results. Authors are very needy! But they are very, very fragile.

So they conducted a field test in 2001. They inflated the actual VIEWS of the stories of a randomly chosen one third of the authors 1000% while leaving the rest at the real totals.

Guess what happened? Pretty easy to guess actually. Those whose totals had been artificially inflated started submitting many more stories than the group whose totals hadn’t been inflated. Like five times as many!

The results were so dramatic that MANU stopped the test after only a few months and reprogrammed the LITEROTICA computers to inflate everyone’s VIEWS. WTF- MORE STORIES FOR THE SITE AND MORE HAPPY AUTHORS. It was a win – win deal.​

I'll give you credit for the amount of diligence you put into this stuff, but I mean are you kidding? I will admit though that when my next story goes up this weekend I am going to click on it from a friends pc and then open up my lap top and see what the views do on my control panel. Willing to bet you are way the hell off here.

 

[TxRad]

Probably so, but if I'd read this ranting earlier I wouldn't have forfeited my prize as a Aug 2010 winner. I received an annonymous email that he was bashing and/or performing his civic duty to call out me and all non-human submissions. (For the record, I wrote one chapter and got stuck in the category. Currently searching for the exit.)

I shouldn't ask but did I lose real cash or just store credit for sex toys? No don't tell me. I couldn't survive the sorrow.

Real cash I'm afraid. In any case, you might PM Laural and ask her if you are too late to claim it. You might be surprised by the answer. You might also share with her why you didn't claim the prize at the time.

In any case, congrats on the win.

As for the exit, that is easy. Pull up your favorite internet picture and use it as your screen saver. Sit back, stare at it and the story will come. If it is a picture of a human then you are free of the non part at least for a while.

 

[YoursSINSerely]

I'm not talking to my cuz any more

First off I’m not your cousin! Unless you're the baby mom's sister gave away when she accidently got knocked up by ... buts thats neither here nor there...

And yes okay I know you’re mad at me (or are you just mad?) because you support the flooding of this site with unedited 800 word SURVIVOR stories and I don’t.

We disagree on whether little ralphie is an idiot or not (he is!).

But there’s a much bigger issue here. And that issue is the quoting on the famous SCOURIES of the “ignored” retarded ones. Quite frankly it’s unacceptable and notwithstanding your great body will quickly lead to you joining the “ignored” list if you don’t modify your behavior immeadiately.

As to my providing info on the VIEW issue I thought I was performing a public service. ace asked a question which no one but I knew the answer to (due to the yearly ROYALTY negotiations I have with the PALACE I’ve become privy to the exact formulas used to translate VIEWS into SALES). So I kindly provided the information.

And what do I get? Whining! And more whining. From darkboy … from some guy I’ve never heard of … even from the guy I was helping… and then you quote the retarded one…​

km on sir scouries: You're an intelligent person with an ability to articulate your deep thinking. To semi-quote Kurt Hummel, I hope you don't mind me being honest with you because it comes from a place of respect. …of course she was on crack when she wrote the above…

Don't you DARE put me on ignore! I have things to say!

 

[TxRad]

Don't you DARE put me on ignore! I have things to say!

He as scouries might put you on ignore but he as all the rest of his alts, especially Grand-high-pobaaa, never would. He doesn't want to miss any mention of his own name.

 

[michchick98]

Don't you DARE put me on ignore! I have things to say!

Really, would it be such a bad thing if he did put you on ignore?

In the 13th inning? After losing our opener pitcher in the 3rd from sickness after striking out eight of the nine batters he faced? And entering the tournament as the 1st seed.

Wimps?

Where did your school rank this year?

This is so typical of Scouries World.

And this is the adherence to forum subjects that made you tear off a newbie who asked for help on AH? Hypocrite.

 

[lovecraft68]

You know Scouries, I have to admit since looking through your thread I have been watching the contests a bit closer.

Novembers winners a Gay male with less than 5,000 views

A non human with about 8,000

The interacial story at least had 20,000 views and almost 50 comments.

I think its good that the winner is not automoatically the most viewed or voted on but storied with less than 5,000?

I don't get it.

If Memory serves me wasn't Jack Mckeon the mager that won The Marlins first world series? Maybe they are trying to recapture the magic.

Not enough to be a cyber stalker, she also has to be a nut job.

I used to respect you but your bullying habit of not responding is getting tiresome.

A few days ago you came down from Olympus to berate, without apology, a new writer who wanted feedback.

Now, and I think I understand why, your inferiority complex makes you want to saddle up with scouries and join him in trying to destroy the site.

To reply, your comment here was totally inappropriate for Story Feedback and should have been posted in AH. Please don't do this again.

Here are the latest results from our fair QUEEN on our appropriately named READERS CHOICE Monthly Awards (not!). What the heck is with her new avatar anyway?

​

Congratulations to the November 2010 Reader's Choice Award Winners!

1 Then and Now Ch. 03 / PS_Lopez GAY

2 Windows Ch. 02 / billylondon INTERACIAL

3New Kingdom: European Court Ch. 07 / MicKay NONHUMAN

Congratulations to the October 2010 Reader's Choice Award Winners!

1 Shadow School Ch. 05 / RedHotLadybug NONHUMAN

2 Just the Six of Us Ch. 14 / Mentalcase INCEST

3 The Council Ch. 13 / JazCullen NONHUUMAN


Congratulations to the September 2010 Reader's Choice Award Winners!

1 The Cellar Ch. 05 / jiskitten NONHUMAN

2 I Read A Lot Ch. 04 / lill_street_writer GAY

3Hunting the Hunter Ch. 05 / Enithermon CELEBRITY

These latest results simply confirm the trend that has been clear for years – chaptered stories from less popular categories somehow dominate awards that are supposed to be READERS CHOICES.In the last three months we’ve added 4 more NONHUMAN winners and 2 more GAY ones and a CELEBRITY one.

Below I’ve also shown the winners from March til August that I originally posted on post #9785 on this thread.

Adding our latest results to the earlier ones here’s what we have:

March- November: 27 winners of which:

26 were from chaptered stories (96+%)! Always of course later chapters in the series – the first chapters of all these stories were invariably rated much lower.

9 winners (33%) have come from SCI FI/NONHUMAN. And another 5 from GAY and 3 from ROMANCE.

In other words about two thirds of our supposed ‘reader’s choices’ came from these marginal, little read categories. Who are we trying to fool?

[SuperHeroRalph]

Unless Laurel rejects it, my dear friend, I posted your life story as a Nude Day contest story in the humor category, as few would believe that it was a true story. Actually, now that I think about it, everyone would believe that it was a true story. How could they not?

I wrote about you swimming the 228 miles from Cuba to Miami with Gabby. Only, you made it and Gabby (sniff, sniff) didn't.

I hope you will take the time to read it and give me a vote and/or comment.

Maybe we could just create a incest only contest to give him a fair chance.

That wouldn't work either.

A couple of years ago scouries female alter ego sarahhhh challenged me to write a better incest story than scouries. My story ended up being the incest story of the year. Not so sorry to say, he has never forgiven me.
