I think the story voting system works about as well as you can expect. Nicola and Gav are tracking scoring to catch abusers who like to troll and low vote stories for no good reason, so I am all good with that.
As for as the Most Popular Story system I have never understood how that worked. So is that totally by vote scores?
I think this calls for a further "two cents"? Perhaps we can charge everyone who wants to leave a score twenty-five cents? Then they will value the privilege of scoring? This follows the logic that people don't value that which is free. Women know this which is why they demand gifts and huge clear pieces of hard rocks to adorn their fingers and ears. They want to know they are valued.
Also all the money can be put into a fund and we can finance an advanced degree in statistics from MIT for Nicola. In two or three years after she has completed an accelerated PhD program in Stats she can seriously look at each and every flaw in the Lush scoring system. Oh and she can save western democracy at the same time by resolving every issue surrounding the fairness of elections.
It's not too much to ask that Lush deliver perfection? [Note: insert tongue in cheek]
Nicola...
please do not take notice of the comments here....
but please transfer this thread to the Humor section...(okay, note my comment only)
There is really more tongue in cheek references here then (or than) in the oral sex stories (Clum, I loved your story, gave it 5+++, and will read is as soon as you tell me which oral sex story you wrote)
I came here to learn to write... and I think I am learning.
I found friends... a nice bonus.
I shared a few stories and a lusty poem or two...
But I have finally learned that I stay here because I have fun.
So if I laugh, laugh with me.. this is not real life.
This is Lush Life
Today the story scores actually are broken. They make no sense at all. I assume that this is a technical error, am I right?
