[meta] The Story Hour Reader Appreciation Thread!!

[el-remmen]

Hey All!

I created this thread as a place where story hour authors can publically thank their loyal readers/posters of their story hours.

I don't know about others, but over the last year I have been doing my "Out of the Frying Pan" story hour the roster of "regular readers has changed" - some people seem to have stopped posting, or stoppd reading - while other new people seem to pop up all the time.

Of course, there are those that have been there since the beginning as well.

But I want to take this moment to thanks my regular readers (I hope I didn't forget anyone) in no particular order:

Metus
Dawn
Felonius n'Tent
Horacio
Ancalagon
Kidcthulhu
and, Cyronex

I also want to thanks people who have also posted even once.

Those who have read and never posted

And also those who were once loyal readers but have fallen by the wayside, like: MaverickWeirdo, Kesh and Lao-Tzu (where are you guys?).

So, other story hour authors - please take this opportunity to thank your readers!

 

[Tokiwong]

Thanks tp My loyal Fans... errr Fan...

Hey just want to throw some congrats to Broccoli Head, Rune, Talindra, Kael of the Blackrose, Black Omega, hmmm and everyone else who has ever posted to any of my storyhours I appreciate it...

 

[SolidSnake]

I want to thank Rune, Arthur Tealeaf, Ancalagon, Kesh, JDragon, and Paka for their support! It really makes a writer's day to know that someone actually likes what they are writing Also, I want to thank all those people who read the thread but don't post...I really appreciate it!

Gosh golly jeepers, I don't want to leave anyone out...

First of all, I'd like to thank Broccli_Head, my first poster. He's kind of a story hour whore... always laying around with those BRAND-X story hours (that aren't mine), but I love the guy. Recently dedicated my 35th story chapter to him.

My biggest "fan", unarguably, is Tsunami. It only takes five minutes after posting a chapter to see that he's posted "woah... that was frickin awesome..." or some other "woah"-oriented phrase. Big thanks to Tsunami.

Neverwinter Knight has been a pretty faithful reader of late, posting almost every day.

DWARF is a fun reader I like having along.

Matchstick's been with me for a long time, and though he doesn't always post, it seems he's always there, watching from the shadows...

Piratecat has begun reading my story hour (so he says). That's just kinda cool in itself.

Old One, Hammerhead, Renshai, Numion, Rel, are all regular readers. Rock on, you bastards.

Anyone I've missed, well, sorry, JERK. Post more often.

I'd also like to thank the Academy.

 

[Piratecat]

Screw the academy.

I've been accused of writing overlong, self-involved campaign stories, which is probably true, and I'm still amazed that anyone reads them at all. I'm thrilled that they do! I get amazing ideas from the regular readers, and it's tremendously cool having people share the game with us. Thank you, everyone; you guys make this fun!

[Lazybones]

Great idea, nem!

I'd like to thank all those who have taken the time to read and comment on my story, including Shelf Life, Broccli-Head, Horacio, Talindra, FreeZ0r, Talon, Ziggy, Croaker, Tokiwong, Maldur, and MasterOfHeaven!

If I missed anybody, thanksthanksthanks!

Updates just about every day of the week around 8 am (PST)!

Special thanks to the State of California, which keeps me both gainfully employed and so bored that I need to seek out gratification in writing a novel-length story hour!

[Plane Sailing]

I would like to give a special mention to Old One and Piratecat - who are probably the only two readers that have posted something on my storyhour (!)

Cheers, guys!

 

[Old One]

The List!

We Story Hour writers spend endless hours composing our tales for a variety of reasons. It take a lot of time and effort and I, for one, am very grateful when readers post to ask questions, comment on plot or mechanics, offer suggestions or just heap on praise!

I would like to thank everyone who has taken the time to read my Faded Glory Story Hour, in all its iterations, and thank all those who took the time to post in the thread, including:

Rel
Oberton
Quickbeam
Plane Sailing
WSmith
Nemmerle
Broccoli_Head
Galfridus
Maveric Weirdo
Galfridus
Pillars of Hercules
Ancalagon
Lazybones
Mishari Lord
Ziggy
Throntangle
Sword-Dancer
Doc Moriartty
RangerWickett
ShawnLStroud
Gideon

I know there are others, many of which we haven't seen since the last switch and I apologize if I have missed anyone (stop by, post and help me correct the error of my ways).

Special thanks to three avid posters in particular, since they keep the page and look count moving ahead:

Lela - Queen of the Table of Elemental Evil
Darklone and Dougal DeKree - The dynamic duo from Deutschland!

Last and certainly not least, thanks to two of my players, Corey and Tortoise who drop by from time to time and keep me straight!

~ Old One

PS - I am still waiting for Piratecat and Sagiro to drop in!

 

[Wulf Ratbane]

Hmm... Rather than try to mention everyone and leave someone out, I just want to give Honorable Mention/MVP to Horacio.

I don't know how he finds the time to read, post, and even just bump the number of different story hours he does!

As for my favorite reader/poster to my own Story Hour-- you know who you are! Thanks!

[Sialia]

Many thanks to all those who have checked in, and especially those who have posted, on The Defenders of Daybreak, the Early Years.

We get a lot of joy from knowing that someone out there is actually reading our stuff.

We really appreciate it.
