Points & Bonus Talk

Sharon T Rose's picture

Ok! Here's the deal: you vote for the stories, you get more of them. Sound fair to you?

WebFictionGuide has created a new voting site, TopWebFiction, where you can vote for your favorite online stories. Both of my serials are listed, so you can vote for each of them once per day. For every MONTH that one of my stories is in the top five on the lists, I'll post a bonus mini-story for you all to read! Note that each novel gets its own bonus story.

Step One: VOTE!
Space & Time
Swords and Sigils

Step Two: TALLY!
Watch the votes; when they meet the criteria below, let me know!! It would help if you could take a screenshot and email that to me, as proof that it did hit the numbers. Votes expire 24 hours after they're entered, so the number will go up and down throughout the day as people in different time zones vote.

Goal: In top 5 overall at the close of each month
(subject to change)

Step Three: FOLLOW!
I will post the links to the bonus pages on @proseofsharon, so either follow me on Twitter or bookmark the page. You can read the bonus updates under each of the novels' bonus section.

This thread is also for those members whose postings have earned them bonus updates! Feel free to discuss what you'd like when it's your turn, and I will place notifications of those bonuses when I get them up.

First up is mjkj for getting 50 points!! whadalitbe, mac?

Sorry? I do not understand that gibberish there in the second part... — ...oh... but yes, a mac would be nice..., maybe a macBook?

It's a phonetic spelling of

It's a phonetic spelling of the phrase " what will it be, mac?", a slang phrase asking for a customer to place an order. "Mac" is a generic name, possibly derived from the Scottish "Mac-", which means "son of". I'm totally guessing on that, so I could be wrong. Anyhoo, what bonus do you want, son?

Ok, stories for my bonus

Ok, stories for my bonus points:

If not covered already in the story (or story to come):

  • for my 50 points: a story about the most happy event (or most happy whatever) in Jregli's life – prior to and not related to coming to the space station
  • for my 100 points: a story about the most happy event (or most happy whatever) in Sarta's life – prior to becoming Melkeen's sword
  • for my 150 points: a story about the best "trick" (or outsmarting or whatever) Jregli played on one of her masters/mistresses (and/or their kids) in her life – prior to or after to and not related to coming to the space station
  • for my 200 points: a story about how the K'Tomal can cross between the dimensions and how their craft works that it can accelerate and stop like that

(...and yeah, I am planning already ahead that far...) Eye-wink

if any of the above mentioned topics would be coming up regardless in the story I would ask to be able to remove and choose a new one.

Thanks,

UPDATED the requirements for

UPDATED the requirements for vote bonuses!

The Day Job is pretty crazy right now, and I think most of you would rather have quality over quantity (if you were honest about it Eye-wink ), so the bonus stories will be monthly. You people are keeping me in the top 5 almost every day, and I simply can't keep up with you! {HUGS}

So, I'm going to monthly bonus updates. These will, of course be much longer than previous, and I hope you enjoy them!
