If this is at all directed toward me, I could easily send in a word count for Developments, but I didn't think they were desired for ongoing stories.Mirage_GSM wrote:No, I won't do a wordcount until a story is completely finished.
(and for stories with a lot of chapters it would be nice if the author could send it in...)
I have a spreadsheet with the word count for every chapter, totaled by act. It's amazing the things you'll do to kill time while you're blocked...Mirage_GSM wrote:No, I won't do a wordcount until a story is completely finished.

That's why I rounded the count for my longer stories to the nearest hundred. While I have a word count from the original file, I discovered that eliminating the formatting tags dropped the word count by two for each instance. Thus, I don't have a definitive count.Oddball wrote:… it might be more accurate to list my word counts as (some number)-ish.
You have formatting tags in the original file? I have to add all that stuff in when I go to post my new chapters. It usually takes an hour or more just to get them all in place, and I still usually miss an italics call, or a paragraph break here and there...griffon8 wrote:That's why I rounded the count for my longer stories to the nearest hundred.

Yes. It makes it much simpler. When I edit Leaty's stuff, I add the tags as well.Helbereth wrote:You have formatting tags in the original file?

I will only put down word counts for works that are either abandoned or completedNumb wrote:Out of curiosity (considering I am approaching the end of Act One of Blossom), does the word count remain pending until completion or is it updated at each "transition"? I'm still not entirely sure how this system works, so please forgive my idiocy if this is obvious
I'll assume you meant that we are doing a good job, and not the guys suggesting changes :3Lloyd Snow wrote:I'm actually surprised at the amount of people suggesting changes to the ways that you guys organise this; you're doing a very good job.
Does it? Why not just call it The Yamaku Library?Comrade wrote:Does anyone have any better names for the archive? It has to have "archive" in the name
