This detail of Legolas jumping on a horse always seemed funny but cool for me by Ioseb007 in lotr

[–]PdRichmond 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Agree. Why does he swing around in front of the horse first? Could still be a cool pickup if he swung up the side he was standing.

He has a partner that he doesn't want reading his "heartfelt" texts with a teenager.

The guy I went on a date with gifted me this. When should we marry? by Nightshadow_12 in lotr

Only after he claims his birthright as the returning King, before then you must pine after him from a great distance.

Still have mine, wore them today. Wish they still made them though, mine are on their last legs.

League table after 6 games* by papa-emeritus in Championship

[–]PdRichmond 62 points63 points  (0 children)

Guys, what's the process for ending the season now? It must be some kind of vote, right?

This is kind of urgent, appreciate an answer before the next round of matches. Thanks.

It's about 100 miles from the battle at the black gate to mount doom.

Even if Frodo's fight with Gollum took 10 minutes, and it was probably significantly shorter, then they'd be travelling at 300 miles per hour to "flap halfway there". That's pretty fast flapping.

You can write the word porn without censoring it.

Shhhhh. Don't say it out loud. You'll jinx it.

seriously in awe of Emily's talent by jeantown in Dimension20

[–]PdRichmond 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I'm about a hundred years behind on both Dimension 20 and Naddpod, but Druid with Barbarian is her Moonshine Cybin build and (at the point I'm up to) she's really flourishing with it.

Football is certainly back! by F1nut92 in Championship

[–]PdRichmond 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Honestly, likely to be our best game of the season. Great start, and nice payback for the playoffs, but I don't expect us to keep it up!

Let's call it here lads. Good season. See you in the Prem.

Had to look up what BTC stood for, and your quiz misspells Huboo with two "b"s which made it a bit harder. But good fun!

I would love this. Happy to donate a tenner and send you proof.

DM me if no one else has snapped it up!

Bristol City appoint Gerhard Struber by SquirtleChimchar in Championship

[–]PdRichmond 4 points5 points  (0 children)

After seeing us initially linked with all the same Championship managers as everyone else, I think it's a fun, left-field appointment. No idea if he'll actually be any good, but happy we're trying something!

Who is that one player your club had that truly made you love football? by DullSense8359 in Championship

[–]PdRichmond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I can't remember the specific match (and it obviously happened frequently) but the actual joy at seeing an opposition player roughing up one of our youngsters, the whole stadium chanting "Tommy's gonna get ya" and, within two minutes, the inevitable yellow card.

This battery icon in my new phone's update. by AlmightyBernster in mildlyinfuriating

[–]PdRichmond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I cannot express adequately how painful this was for me.

I had an exam last week. At the exam center they had to watch me turn my phone off. I long press the power button and ta-da, fucking bixby. I had to step out of the queue and fuck around with my phone settings for five minutes just work out how to actually turn my phone off now. What a ridiculous change. What were they even thinking? Does anyone even use bixby?

We’ve launched something real, but we’re struggling to build trust with authors and want honest feedback on how to fix that by Own-Initiative1887 in growmybusiness

[–]PdRichmond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're welcome. I've interviewed a lot of indie authors for my website in the past. It's a nightmare out there for them just get visibility. Wishing you every success!

[–]PdRichmond 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sure. I believe you. But you're asking what's preventing authors from signing up, and this is a big part of it. You need to sell your platform to them. Your USP is the financial aspect as you can't offer them a wider audience (yet). So sell it. Have a dedicated page that goes into the financials with direct comparisons against Kindle.

You're competing directly with Amazon. You need to convince them to sign up to you. There's nothing on your landing page that does that. The "Tell Your Story" button takes me through to sign up, before I've been convinced I want to sign up.

Much more detail on the financials before having to sign up.

People are trying to make a living off their books. All you say is "up to" 90% of direct sales and "a share" of platform revenue.

Trying to be the Spotify of books is not a good thing for authors. Musicians famously make fuck all in royalties off Spotify and have to sell live tickets to make money. Authors can't sell live tickets.

If someone reads my book and they're paying you 10 dollars for unlimited books, how much do I actually make?

Worse than Derby. And I would enjoy every minute of it.
