Re: Terminology debate - "mute" versus "voice-off"

Point the Second: People claim that there are only obscure references online that claim that "mute" isn't acceptable. I'm somewhat baffled by this and it makes me wonder where you're looking . neither of those three links claims the term "mute" is offensive. All three refer to the term "deaf-mute"....

Re: Vision

Yes, I was referring to the "glares from the other students." I'm not sure what I would do to improve this story... If I were to write a story like that I could think of two approaches: a) the realistic one in which I'd cut out all unneccessary drama and exaggeration. I'm not sure that would make an...

Re: Can You Remember Me? An Amnesiac Story

Even if the scene wasn't shown it doesn't mean it didn't happen. Even if it didn't they would know each other. They do know each other at the beginning of that scene without having to do introductions, and they've been going to the same school for more than two years, and there are only four classes...

Re: Emi Epilogue - Stopping Short

But do you think adding in the phone call that lets Emi know he's in the library would be enough to improve the chapter as a whole? Well it does make Hisao seem less of a dick. In the original version he rejected his girlfriend's wish to spend time with him with the excuse that he had to study and ...

Re: Vision

I can see, yes. That’s not the problem. The problem is that I can’t turn the sight off. I can’t adapt to vision as slowly as I’d like to – in chunks, with breaks to rest my mind. Even with my eyes closed, sight is always there in front of me, a distraction from the sound and the touch that was, unt...

Re: Terminology debate - "mute" versus "voice-off"

That's assuming the intent even is to cause trouble. If you're asked to stop doing something and you keep doing it anyway, what other intention could you have? Exactly zero persons in this thread are using the word "mute" with the intention to cause trouble/insult. They use it because it is the cor...

Re: Learning To Fly - A Saki pseudo-route (Update and Art 1/

Yes, quite a few subtle hints - too bad we all know about her already :-) Very enjoyable chapter. I have to admit I kinda forgot who Noriko was after the long hiatus, though^^° Only one minor comment: but that just shows what a marked change this day is having on her. I don't think something can "ha...

Re: Emi Epilogue - Stopping Short

Technically your story is very good - it's the story itself or the characterization that I find a bit strange. The way Hisao acts reminds me a bit too much of the chapter of Emi's arc I liked least - "Is Carnival" - what with Hisao trying to avoid Emi, but their relationship should have progressed c...

Re: Act I with random choices - Probabilities

However, the devs' love of subverting genre meant that by trying to be nice to everyone, I insured my own Kenji ending those first two runs… Uh, no. Uh, yes . I'm telling you I tried to be nice to everyone, and got Kenji, twice. If you want to call me a liar, please do so explicitly. I never called...

Re: A Left Eye of Darkness (upd 20150107)

Well, the only character besides Naomi and Natsume who is tangentially involved with the newspaper club would be Misaki - being in the photography club. If it's not her it's either an OC, a character from another Fic (e.g. Jun) or a minor character with made up additional background, so it would be ...

Re: COM(promise) - A Miki Route (Updated Dec 25th)

this wouldn't be as much of a problem for someone who was reading one line from start to finish, as they'd just have to click the links, Not necessarily. Even if I come late to a story, I don't use the links, because that way I would miss all the commentary - for one thing it is occasionally intere...

Re: Act I with random choices - Probabilities

Holy balls. More than a 50% chance of manly picnic. Makes me wonder how I didn't get it my first time. ..... wow..... so I had a 98% chance not to get hanko (the route I was most interested in when I read the char bios), and I got her on first shot...... I was fiddling around and had to look up how...

Re: Act I with random choices - Probabilities

TL;DR; You're right. My earlier calculations were wrong.
Well, so were my earlier calculations, so I guess we're even. Thanks for making me recheck them.
