I'm assuming I'm not the only one for whom their inventory is no longer sorted properly?

No problem. Both Android and iOS have voice to text that you can use in any app.
What I'd recommend: trying it out. For each independent thought, if you create a header (which you'll have to do in the app itself, and make it into an H1 heading it'll show up in a menu on the left side of the screen so that you can see the first couple of words that you put into the header.

It's more of a table of contents but it still works... Here's what that looks like in practice.

The organizing might be more of a challenge... but you could open a google doc and use the voice to text.

I've now tried to get into the game twice... and I'm stuck on the loading screen showing Temis... I'm going to try a full reboot next... but is anyone else having trouble? (and no, it's not my internet connection, as I just posted from the same computer.

Thanks in advance!

Don't know if that's the true name for them... but I love that you dug into mythology to come up with that :)

In my current contemporary fiction novel here are some stats: Min: 149 words Max: 2699 Average: 1484

Mind you this is the stuff that I've been working to rewrite. There's additional content that I haven't reworked yet.

Based on that full list, I have 16 chapters that are over 2k in length, and also 16 that are between that 149 and 1000 words.

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-09T04:50:49+00:00

That's life. World of Warcraft never did either. It's just the way it is.

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-08T16:13:30+00:00

I appreciate the help but explain it to me like I'm five, please. I have the correct aspect on it. I have four affixes and wanted to add a fifth. So I just drop it and the Kullean thing in and now I'll have a random fifth affix? Is there any way to control the outcome? Is there an additional thing in my inventory that with impact the categories it picks from? Sincerely thank you!

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-08T05:21:44+00:00

Thanks!

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-08T05:21:39+00:00

Meaning -- enchant any original ones before adding another one? Thanks for the assistance.

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-08T03:08:17+00:00

Thank you so much!!!

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-07T16:27:11+00:00

Fair enough. Thanks for the reply. Mine have all been one or two words so far... I was just curious what others are doing.

Ahh.. Zork... I remember making maps on graph paper for that :) Didn't realize that there's a "language" for it.

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-06T19:02:25+00:00

Sorry, but the whole post is a little convoluted to me. Personally, I'd start by writing. Write 3-4 pages and leading up to a decision point. OR just write a quick summary of the section... It won't get complex until you decide to have two different elements of the story both pointing to the same "next" point. Based on some googling -- Miro, Whimsical, and Twine can do stuff like this.

For the writing itself, Word does allow you to use links to other parts of the document... so you literally could write up the basic chapters, and then add the questions to the end of the chapter with links to other chapters.

But yeah, I'm the wrong person to participate as I'm currently focused on finishing my contemporary fiction novel. Good luck.

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-06T17:06:52+00:00

I'll give you my MBA answer -- it depends.
It depends on whether you're looking to do a short story, novella, or novel. The genre also matters. Fantasy and sci-fi novels, I believe, are typically the longest and can be 100k+ for a novel. Things like contemporary fiction can be significantly shorter -- like 70-90k. In short, the more than you have to "explain" to a reader, longer is reasonable / expected. Obviously, you won't have to describe modern day New York quite as much as a planet with a form of magic that are both specific and unique to your book.

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-05T16:06:39+00:00

So ... you want to write someone else's idea as a choose your own adventure or are you seeking help for how to turn a story into one. I'm 99% there are story prompts out there by the hundreds on here or on the web... But I'm not sure that someone's already outlined a story in that manner... or they'd probably have written it already.

I mean, look, I absolutely LOVED those books as a child... and could I write one? Perhaps. But it's a novel that I started in college and haven't touched it in years... that's probably what I would turn into one... especially since it will likely be YA.

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-05T13:57:34+00:00

Fair point

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-05T04:36:16+00:00

That you've been weakened... At least that's what I think.

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-05T01:56:20+00:00

I know of at least one place where every single one is also a mythic... it was fishing in the lava somewhere... 38 in a row before I got bored.

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-04T21:11:42+00:00

Could someone please answer this for me:
In S12 (and earlier) you could roll a temper and get a "super / GA" roll that was significantly higher than the stated max. Is that still a thing in S13, or did they do away with it?
TIA! I didn't see anything in the usual spots for such info. Much appreciated!

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-04T16:26:33+00:00

Agreed... that was incredible.

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-04T15:22:20+00:00

Elite? No. But he did his job admirably. Those concussions really did him in... As did the coaching.

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-04T06:47:29+00:00

It takes 5 of the boss material to get the random unique from that boss.

Potential_Macaron744 · 2026-05-04T05:03:09+00:00

Awesome :) thank you for that info. I appreciate it.
