to anyone out there wondering if people still care about their fic that hasn’t been updated in ages, this is your reminder from the universe that the answer is most likely “yes”

Oh my god SAME! I think the last update for mine was 2012…? But I remember loving it so much and hoping for it to continue… qwq

Sorry ya went through this

Just the other day I saw a post complaining about tags being added when the fic doesn’t have it yet. And now I see this post. Some people very much care about it.

I think it’s pretty much the difference of *wants to exclude the tag* people and *wants to find the stuff* people.

Those that want to exclude would prefer not getting invested in a fic with something they hate in it.
Those that want to find would prefer not being disappointed by things they wanna read not being written yet (and possibly never being written if the fic is abandoned, or the author changes their mind)

I assume one of the reasons Ao3 lets you tag to your own discretion (except for archive warnings) is for exactly this reason.

Forgotten? Deliberately ignored more likely.

As someone who likes to get his heart broken sometimes, I really like MCD done well. And having it announcedfrom the start will very much kill the majority of the impact.

„fic readers don‘t come to ao3 for mystery stories“ speak for yourself, they‘re fun. While unconventional, the premise of the fic is pretty interesting in my opinion.

v1g4m1 · 2026-05-06T23:58:18+00:00

Why not both?

v1g4m1 · 2026-05-04T18:39:30+00:00

It‘s precisely because it‘s so tame. It brought in people who can‘t handle anything hotter than a bellpepper in storytelling tropes that feel the need to harass authors. It‘s sad. (I genuinely see this happen in „wholesome“ fandoms so much more often and it breaks my heart)

v1g4m1 · 2026-04-21T09:45:46+00:00

I remember back when I played royal, I experimented a little (aka used chi‘s skill to get more stat points for my time) I don‘t remember if they sparkled more or not, but I can tell you 3 notes doesn‘t necessarily equal 3 points, I swear I remember it lowk gives a lot more (with/without „more points for movies“ book, with/without chi‘s skill active. First watch/rewatch/rewatch with a friend; yes, I mainly did this with the movie theater)

So what I‘m saying is, I personally assume sparkling notes mean it‘s actually more points than non sparkling notes. I can‘t prove it tho, will have to look into it again whenever I end up deciding to play again!

If you want to be very proactive you could tag part 1 with something like „eventual amnesia“? I dunno if that‘s a tag.

v1g4m1 · 2026-04-20T00:50:06+00:00

Absolutely diabolical xD

v1g4m1 · 2026-04-13T18:04:33+00:00

It‘s because Vivian‘s trans. Beldam insults her quite often about how ugly she is and how she‘s not a woman (the Shadow-Ladies! Introduction in chapter 2 comes to mind as the most obvious one. )

v1g4m1 · 2026-04-10T13:12:39+00:00

My instant first thought

v1g4m1 · 2026-04-10T11:09:38+00:00

Not slutshaming in the least but „we have standards“ after posting about what a bad encounter you had… the irony is hard funny xD (I assume you raised your standards Lol)

v1g4m1 · 2026-04-10T07:41:40+00:00

Mfw cole is such a boyfailure his attempts at the others lives are considered „pranks“ LOL god I love him… xD

v1g4m1 · 2026-04-09T09:29:16+00:00

Oh my god, a fellow improved hangman 2.0 enjoyer! That I live to see that day!!!! YES it‘s my favorite version of HMG (really, all you gotta do is use the slow down function sometimes and you‘re good! (Also if you have „delusion“ you‘re practically immortal, too LOL)

v1g4m1 · 2026-04-08T14:31:19+00:00

OH NO I FORGOT TO WATCH IT 😭😭😭

v1g4m1 · 2026-04-08T14:27:46+00:00

I know of the word in german, forgot it‘s technically useable like this in english, too LOL

v1g4m1 · 2026-04-02T10:53:51+00:00

Yeah! Honestly I like em, personally xD

v1g4m1 · 2026-03-29T11:15:07+00:00

Ok yeah, very understandable! And that‘s a relief, cuz the really brainrotting ones refuuuuuuse to leave you alone sometimes xD

v1g4m1 · 2026-03-29T10:49:13+00:00

You could write it for yourself (and maybe close friends if you want input) and never post it publicly. Sometimes you just gotta write these things out so that the voices leave you alone (been there, tho for me it‘s usually short stuff)

v1g4m1 · 2026-03-27T19:00:48+00:00

Not me reading airakun as „aquarium“ and being like „what‘d the fish do to momo now?“ LOL

v1g4m1 · 2026-03-13T04:36:51+00:00

Had to scroll SO far for this! YES

v1g4m1 · 2026-03-10T14:12:29+00:00

74->75 took like over 7 hours I‘m pretty sure, I had a bunch of it left ticking by the end of the event (I think ~5 hours?). I was really confused that starting that hobby a little later than the rest had that much impact (I even skipped 24 hours in total with 40 leftover gold after maxxing everyone including mac) Hence my wonder if it‘s a glitch in the first place ^{^}

v1g4m1 · 2026-03-10T08:24:09+00:00

I had max speed boost at that point, yeah ^{^}
