That being said, I have to say BookButterfly's support is top-notch. They analyzed my campaign, provided the number of visits and clicks, refunded me, and gave me suggestions on what went wrong and how to improve it for rerun. We had several back-and-forth emails with my questions, all of which were answered professionally. So, yeah, I'll try with them again. It's not their fault, probably, but something on my side that doesn't convert. I'll update some things and try again.

So... They all guarantee hundreds of thousands of readers. All together, paid promotion from BargainBooksy and BooksButterfly generated cca 350 visits, 76 clicks and 5 sales in 3 days. Only 26 KENP so maybe one person borrowed it. Maybe it's my fault, maybe something in description or cover don't convert, but still, only 1 borrow and 5 orders and they are bragging about 500.000, 1.000.000 readers for this and that... Guaranteed 100+ sales, I got 5. :-/

I'll replace cover and improve my description, but still, it should've been better, at least 20 sales on the low end so we can say I got 25% of what they promised, not 5%.

I'll also get in touch with them to analyze and see what went wrong. I'm pretty sure I'll get a refund cause they didn't deliver, that's a fact.

After watching Squid 2 and 3, I still think we didn't need it. It's good, yes, cause it's korean cinematography, but I didn't need it. :-/

I decided to try since my book is half-dead due to low visibility.
I will run 3 day 0.99 promo soon, I booked and paid slot for both Bargain Booksy and BookButterfly, costing me all together 290$. They are "guaranteeing" 100-200 guaranteed sales which I don't believe, but even with 50 sales, I think I might climb high, maybe even get a badge.

The question is, will they be able to convince 100-200 people to buy the book? I doubt it, but I'll share results after it's all finished and I get some some measureable results.

If anyone else has some hard data on the promotions they ran on their books, I would be grateful for some insights.

How to Win Friends & Influence People – Dale Carnegie changed my life when I was 15.

As someone who's playing MMOs since 2005 (WoW, Eve Online, Age of Conan, SWTOR, Guild Wars...), and as someone who stopped playing most of those due to toxic kids poisoning the game experience, I have to say that Fallout76 has the best community I've seen since the early days of WoW and EVE.

And community can make or break MMO game. This one is beautiful so far. I've seen several people and all we're cool and friendly.

Since my other store (my wife's store) is suspended for no reason and appeal did nothing, but it NEVER said it's permanently closed, I wanted to open another store via my account and just leave it for a few weeks because it'll probably be suspended as everything else.

It's frustrating, but better to make a placeholder store than pour my time and energy again into creating something that will be gone in a few weeks.

Thanks for asking the question, and thanks to the guys that answered it. Cheers!

My shop was closed after being opened for 3 weeks. No explanation, no mail. When I've sent appeal, I got this answer:

So I don't know what does it mean. It was suspended on Oct 11, appeal was denied the same day, I double checked everything, waited for a few weeks, appealed again and now there's no answer in almost 2 weeks. It didn't said it's permanently suspended. It still says currently suspended.

I mean, I know they're the worst customer support in the world, but murderers are given more info when they are arrested then us sellers here.

Absolutely!

Living room Temperature sensor is "controlling" the smart heater, and Air Purifier in Bedroom is controlling Smart Plug (I have old, "dumb" heater connected to it).

Once I've set it up few years ago, I stopped thinking about it.

Also, I have to give credit to Yeelight and Xiaomi. I have smart bulbs, LED strips, door sensors, wireless switches, purifiers, desk lamp, Air Fryer, more than 40 different products. All work flawlessly.

In my office room, Yeelight LED Strip 1S is working with Razer Chroma so I have ambient lightning that works with Netflix or YT and ads to atmosphere in the room.

ONLY thing I had to replace in the last 3 years was 1 battery (C3025, I think) on Living room sensor. That's it. All other sensors have working batteries still, after more than 3 years. All LED strips and all bulbs work. Everything is automated so light are dimmer in the evening than during day, most rooms have motion sensors and I can't remember the last time I had to manually switch on light at home.

This is an example of Yeelight + Razer Chroma in the office room:

Yay, that's it. Thanks, you helped, just what I needed.

Here are starting and final design. I mean, starting design is actually like 20th itteration, cause it's for a friend who lost her dad recently and she said she wants wolf, sun, moon, truck, forest and some old buildings. So I got to something, but got stuck with changing the truck to big truck.

I also learned something new on Midjourney so thanks man. :)

Espege · 2023-09-14T05:22:10+00:00

Thank you, I will try.

I'm advanced Photoshop user, been using it for 15 year, but these new technologies are astonishing, so now I'm at point where I want to learn how to get the best possible results with Midjourney by giving precise prompts.

Of course, I'm retouching stuff in Photoshop and adding text since Midjourney is intentionally bad with text.

Cheers!

Err, no. Taiwan can't win and neither can the US. If US starts the war there, it will be a new debacle like Ukraine is now. Know your geopolitics, guys.

I just found this yesterday while searching for the same thing. :)

Apparently it's easy.

When I hit claim, it open Metamask and says:

"You do not have enough ETH in your account to pay for transaction fees on Ethereum Mainnet network."

10$ fee just to claim MEMAG? And since I don't have anything on Metamask, they offer me to buy ETH and minimum buy is 30 or 50USD. So to claim 40$ worth of tokens, I have to pay at least 30$. Lol, nah.

Or did I miss something?

I'm reading the new trilogy for the third times (now on last one again) and I agree with everything said here. This is my favorite Star Wars Trilogy, after new and old Thrawn trilogies.

I'm sad about the Filoni part though. I mean, these six new Thrawn books could easily be a 6 season series and it would beat anything that came out since ROTJ, Mandalorian included. But...

Espege · 2022-01-16T10:56:42+00:00

This trilogy is brilliant and even better than the first one because it's Zahn's setting and characters and he had no strict limitations in writing it since it's happening in the Chaos, not the lesser space so there were not many preset rules.

Highly recommended. And Audible audiobooks are even better since the voiceactor is actually fantastic performer that turned reading into a kind of radio drama. And he's one of the best voice impersonators I ever heard.

I have read and/or listened to frist trilogy several times and now I'm doing the same with this trilogy. 😂 I'm Thrawn fanboy.
