Admins, when should we expect PCM14 sub-forums up? Just wondering.
Whenever my new story is ready to be published to the forums...
It usually opens a week or so before the game is released if I recall correctly.

Seems legit.
Just decided to searcj a bit about this and - NTTHRASH U25 story was one of very first threads in PCM13 sub-forums (right?) and it was posted on 06/06/2013, so I guess it's a bit more than 1 week. Cool!

Ahh, that time of the year when 100 story threads are opened before new game is published and 99 never make it past page 5.
I would say i will wait for feedback from daily to buy a new game, but as people are very biased and tend to overlook gamebreaking bugs, i will try it again myself.

Yeah, I had the game stuff a week early, just not the actual game. Xavi gave me the DB and such, and so I started the story pretty early.

I can't see a problem in this, honestly. It's really hard to keep the motivation for long time. You have to be a story-writer to understand it, really.
Anyways, even the some of the best story-writers such as TMM and Ian started like 20 threads (yes, I counted it few months ago and I remember TMM had like 19 story-threads, while Ian was on 17 or something like that), while on another side you have dienblad, Mre and Sutty who had some really successful stories in their first try. Depends.

You forgot your 15+ attempts. I think you can fit with that group.

I like to think that my first (and only) story attempt was a good one. I know it wasn't but still got 13079 views and 246 replies. not bad for a PS3 story I think

I am not "one of the best storywriters", neither I had 15+ attempts. Precisely, 10.

I dont see a problem with it either, i just stated a fact.
And you probably missed them, but i also strated like three stories at least, with only one making it past page 5 (but not page 10), story with Lampre in pcm11(or 12) iirc.

Yup, I missed them as I wasn't really the most active member in 2011. But, thank you, I got a great idea by reading one of them!

Glad to help.
Ideas were not a problem, motivation and time was, but you know that as a storywriter.

Remember the Cafe Pedro where people spent a few pages trying to figure out from user profiles who the members with the most posts were?
Well, here is an interactive version: https://www.sporcle.com/games/sumofmar...most-posts

I can name that one with 8887 posts there, but he has 9 posts more now.
Cool thing SN, i think two top members without admin status are Crue and Isso? And you are nr.2
Or you have still CT as admin and he is nr.1?

Well, there goes any hope of being productive this week.
There's a fine line between "psychotherapist" and "psycho the rapist"

Great idea!
28/50 here. I guess I should spend more time here, then. () Shame I couldn't type correct nicknames of 3 guys. Would've been 31.

Just click on big, green button "Play game" and it's your turn to guess.

I have 0 stories so far... Does that make it necessary for me to make one?

16/50 or 15/49 of people who aren't me
EDIT: If you hit 'full results' you can see how many people guessed your name correctly. I feel proud that I'm over 50% there!
