Alright, as I’ve said before, I will do 2 more chapters this week.
Now to get another chapter later on, here are the requirements:
Whenever these are achieved, I will do the bonus chapter within the week
- progress will be in a widget at the bottom of the site 🙂
Not cool, you shouldn’t be buying good ratings and reviews like this. It completely undermines the system. Even if the people who are reviewing it enjoy the series, there is no way to prove that the review was fair, or inflated simply to get a bonus chapter. If you wanted to set one time milestones like FBT did, that would be one thing, but this isn’t any different than authors on Amazon buying reviews after which Amazon went through and deleted them as fraud.

One time thing, other bonus chapters will be based on # of votes, # on reading list, or some other stuff. I promise no more of this ever again. Just needed some advertising, lol

I’ve changed the requirements. Sorry again….maybe I’ll post the next chapter earlier as an apology 😛

All I’m trying to say, is make a list of hidden milestones that the group tracks, if one is reached, release a freebie and announce why. As long as the unfulfilled ones are hidden, I don’t see it as any kind of beggary or fraud.
I have nothing against your translation or your group personally, this just kind of hit a hot button for me. So many reviews that promise the moon from books to movies to appliances, and when you actually check them out, you find out the review was bought and paid for by the owner/author/manufacturer and is about a useful as a wet piece of toilet paper.

Ask for readers to review the series all you want, nothing wrong with it, it only became an issue when you promised them something for it.

The hidden list is a good idea 😛
Maybe I’ll do that in the future

Ah, you said what I wanted to say. Apparently that part of my review didn’t really go through. Maybe it’s because my review also included archive links of this page as proof of the request and the archive of the novelupdates page immediately after I saw this request when I think there wasn’t too much change just yet.

As I said, sorry about it

I tried to vote on the Novel update website, but the system is messed up. I did write a short review. sorry I couldn’t help your stats. I clicked on the stars, nothing happened, I looked around for any other way to vote saw nothing so I clicked the stars a few more times and wrote my short review and posted.
