I will have to check the token shop out, then, see if I have enough for any goodies.

i wanted to ask, what's with the decimal numbers when we get aurum? like i have xxx.62 aurum. what's with the .62 part? XD

My best guess is that post value is figured based on character count, and each character in a post is worth less than 1 aurum, so once it all gets added up, it rarely comes out to a whole number.

that makes sense, withoutwords.

btw, hi! =)

Hi! How are you today?

i'm actually pretty darn good today. you? =)

Hanging in there. Watching Ghost Adventures.

cool. i'm playing online and working on some HollyDays gifts. =)

I'm supposed to be writing right now. Tumblr is distracting. ^^;

i'll be writing starting nov 1.

the whole internet is distracting. ;)

Exactly correct. :) I mean, we COULD round it off to a whole-number amount of Aurum, but we figured... hey, why not let you keep the pennies? They add up.

(If you're curious about the math, it's not a linear aurum-per-character calculation; it's a curve that makes it to where a longer post is always worth more aurum than a shorter post but with diminishing returns to make it to where three-page megaposts aren't worth it.)

trystan- It iiiiis. If I don't update some of these fics soon, people are gonna start hunting me, and I'm just over here forever lost in endless feeds of fanart and meta posts. orz

Coda- I kind of figured there was probably more to it. But yay for pennies! ^^

thanks for the more in-depth answer there, Coda! LOL!

ooh, multipart fics. i don't do those. writing them, i mean. what fandom?

Adding on to this. We typically have 2 or 3 events a year, Nox which happens around Halloween but do not say it is Halloween or certain people may hit you. The spring event, which changes each year but it typically a story event of some sort. In the summer there is typically a User appreciation event, but this year we had a carnival. They last for about a month each, sometimes more for story events.

Mainly the Marvel movieverse at the moment, with a small sprinkling of Red vs. Blue. I have some stories I haven't updated in months, but I'm so stuck on those it isn't even funny.

Tiva- That's good to know. Looking forward to my first event on the site, whenever it may come. ^^

as far as fanfiction goes, i write what the voices tell me. no voices, no fic. and there's no rhyme or reason which voices talk to me. heh.
