Talk:Disciplinary Action/Disciplinary Office/First Week/Tihana

First of all, thanks for all the effort you're putting into adapting to my weird story format. I really appreciate how you've updated your writing style so that the paths return to the main page and remain independent of each other. I also thank you for using the paths of the titles as intelligently as you have, I actually have an offline copy of the story, and it's very easy to organize your contributions since you make very good use of the namespace.

I think a small change can be done in this page. Since some of the previous options allowed the reader to take Tihana to the infirmary to sleep off her drunkenness, I think this page (Disciplinary Action/Disciplinary Office/First Week/Tihana) can first give the option to choose where Tihana was sleeping, and a subsequent page (Disciplinary Action/Disciplinary Office/First Week/Tihana/Office) can be where he finds her sleeping on the changing table, with the options for how she ended up there. --Tod Naturlich (talk) 22:07, 27 September 2017 (CEST)

I had actually planned on having a separate beginning route listed under going to the infirmary for the one where you continue Tihana's punishment in the infirmary, thus the reason why I did not include that in this route. It made more sense to me that way, but I can still see the name organization potentially being changed around a bit for the sake of organization.

Also, I do hope the large amount of contributions I have made have not scared you away from making your own contributions. That's one of the curses I have on collaborative efforts, once my contributions to a story exceed 50% the original writer tends to start dropping off and contributing less, and that makes me feel really bad.

As I told you on our first communication, one of the things I admire about you is how prolific a writer you are, much more than I could ever dream to be. I started thinking about this story from the moment I knew of this page, and I started making notes on how I wanted it to work and be organized in order not to be overwhelmed by open ends (which was my main fear for the wiki format). I planned several paths that I wanted to follow on the story and actually wrote a brief summary of them before making the first post. Then I just expanded the summaries I got and published Suzy, Beatriz and the Nurse paths. Fact is I'm reaching the end of what I had prepared before hand, so I won't be able to post at the same speed, but I plan to continue posting. One thing I don't like is to leave a story uncomplete, so even if it takes me some years, I will finish this.

If you continue to keep the interest on the story, I will have to introduce the next time section much sooner than expected, so you have a place for the story to grow (that's one of the pieces I already have the summary for), for my part I still have the rest of John's interaction with Beatriz and the twins, the follow up for Suzy and her sister Ginny, as well as a long story arc with Perl. I even started writing a reprise of the events from Suzy's perspective, thinking on eventually opening her own path.

So while I'll be much slower than you, I have no plans to stop participating, even if in the end 90% of the posts are yours.

One thing I have liked a lot about this experience is that it's force me to write some things without planning them first, all I wrote about the smoking children in the storage room was done without a previous plan on how it was gonna go, in response to Notsooldpervert's request. I liked how that went, so I might decide to take upon myself a path I had no planned in the future, just to practice.
