Homestesque (Third thread is thread three!)

[Mikethehobo]

More than you think. /relurk

[Wandering One]

Now I'm curious: how many Homestesque readers ARE there?


+1

Lots of them/us?

[Omenofthelightning]

A poll should be held somewhere about that.
It'd be interesting to see how many a us there are who like Homestesque/read it.

If the view counter on MegaSWF works the way I think it does, and if the flash files are as hard to find without a specific query as I think they are...

The adventure's current readerbase is around 1,703 or more strong...

... Wait, WHAT?

Seriously? Wow, that's awesome!

*jealousy* (greened to reflect eyes)

I think Fieldstuck has around 20? Or at least 20 vocal viewers.

[TobiasMoon]

Wait, you didn't know you had that many fans???

That's pretty much your fault, you know. Just had to make something this engaging.

[karmicOnion]

Really, what were you expecting when you have a walking house and an eldritch abomination horse.

[Mikethehobo]

Called it.

[Crafter1300]

Thats the problem with this adventure, It's just so QUALITY and ENGAGING!!!!

[Murder]

Guys, please don't jinx it.
Or else it might end up like Housetrapped or Don't Name It.

Housetrapped? Don't Name It?
Are those supposedly bad fanadventures?
Because if they are, I think you forgot to add Albatross or whatever with all a those fantrolls engaged in that silly creepypasta-ish plot.
Now that fanadventure was just ridiculous, even if the flash games were pretty good.

But yes, PH, that's what you get for making quality flashes, quality characters and quality plots.
PH can take the last part in anyway he wants to. I mean, he /does/ have a fanpony.

They were pretty good. Ended early, though.

Yeah, that vocal thing is important. I've been reading Fieldstuck without commenting for a little while now...been meaning to comment but I keep reading it on my phone and forgetting about it when I get to my computer...

Anyway, there obviously aren't 1700 vocal readers for homestesque either. I think in general a lot of people read some adventures without commenting.

bad [...] Albatross [...] silly creepypasta-ish plot.

1. It's called Alabaster.
2. The author has stated that it had more 'crazy' characters for a good reason.
3. It's a joke adventure.
4. HT and DNI aren't bad, and neither is Alabaster.
5. It might be a bit ridiculous but it's really quite engaging.
6. Fantrolls aren't that bad.
7. The author of Alabaster is actually a real author, having written a book in French which has been nominated for an award four times.

[/fanrant]

Anyways, PH, you're an awesome dude. I can't wait to see [REDACTED] in all its splendor.

[Xindaris]

Even with all the respect in the world for your opinion, and without having read Alabaster, I have to scoff a little at the the bolded "Real Author^TM". Anyone who writes is a "Real Author," due to the definition of author; and thanks to postmodernism you can win an award for taking your messy bed to an art show. It's entirely a question of the quality of the work (which I am not calling into question here nor ever until I've actually read what you're talking about), no matter what the writer has or hasn't done in the past.

Anyway, I think the point of referring to DNI and Housetrapped was that the authors of those works were doing amazing work with an unbelievable frequency of update, but then completely and totally and permanently gave up (which I'm surmising based on DNI, which I have actually read, as opposed to Housetrapped, which I haven't).

[Matrix]

Well, Alabaster isn't a "joke adventure". There certainly are joke characters like Ophiuchus the Great and the Copycat, who are parodies of bad fantrolls.

[Murder]

I'm baffled that my attempt to convey the idea that "If you drop this adventure I'm going to come and do what my name says with you in your house" ended up making people ranting about other fanventures.
I've skimmed around those three fanventures a bit, but when I looked at the later part and saw that Housetrapped and DNI is discontinued I stopped reading.
As for Alabaster I stopped reading after it gets creepy and weird because I'm here on this forum to read ridiculous shits.

Oh. Wow. o_O

That was far more than I expected! Good job!

[Adept]

As far as I'm aware, I don't think Housetrapped is discontinued, just not updating frequently at all right now. Also another reader here that doesn't comment much at all.

[Killer-Squirtle]

Congratulations on 1700+ viewers

[Medinoc]

Indeed. When we get to 2,000 we'll pop the champagne.

[Destruction Dragon 360]

Yeah, this is pretty much on the Top 5 list of best Fanventures, and is probably one of the most original in terms of world-building and new mechanics. The problem being that I came in pretty much just before the hiatus is a bit of a pain and I haven't had much reason to comment aside from the huge party we had. But yeah there are a lot of people that read this if the previous shenanigans from before the hiatus are anything to go by.
