That is a great idea. You mean like "I kinda like this", "I love this", "ohh this is great" and then you only get to read those three and select which one you really want to vote on?



That sounds weird, do you share your computer with someone? They could have edited your story in the first hour. Otherwise you might have forgotten it, it's the only two possibilities I believe :)

Added a "Disown story" so that you can get ride of stories.

Updated the menu to have new stories as well

"When new things go on like a story is now up for votes, you get a green bar telling you that while you are on story wars but it doesn't go to our notification box, do you think you could make it go thereto?"


I agree, notifications should work better

Yeah I understood that it would become weird to explain when you change perspective. It's two roles that come into play. First the reader/editor, and then the original author. So when changing perspective it feels weird. (I am still sick btw, ugh)


Regarding Reason. Been thinking about that a lot, if there was a good way to explain every change you do and to be honest, I am not seeing it right now. Or rather, I have a few ideas that are too complex.


I am rather thinking that converting the feedback system into working into these edits. So when you are editing a story you can explain underneath why you did as you did, if you feel the need for it. I don't think you need to explain why you helped with a silly grammar mistake but maybe if you are switching how the sentence is built then you could explain it and make a case for why they should accept the changes.

A prototype for how it could work

As a reminder: Maybe add that you should be able to invite someone to edit your draft.




This is basically what I have in mind. Notification about someone suggesting a change to your chapter is missing and also where to see what suggestions you have made as well. As well as the history part.


The idea is this: You are reading a chapter that you like but think you might be able to improve somewhat. Might be that there are some small spelling mistakes or something needed for the plot.

What do you think?

If go to your profile, you can see all the drafts you have submitted. Its on the second tab, example: https://www.storywars.net/users/1?tab=2


Is that what you were looking for?
