    Title drop.

    I haven't had a good opportunity to. Contrary to the title's appearance, I don't think it would lend itself to a name drop easily either.

    Writing style...

    "The example you've show isn't large enough for me to get a good grasp on what you mean." Laccoff_Mawning scratches his head in confusion. Then continues speaking, clearly unmoved from the argument. "Like, what's the difference between this post here and the style you've given at the top of...

    Which of these fantasy creatures would you have as a companion?

    Spidey. Nothing will ever dare mess with me.

    Should the prohibited content rules for Scribblehub be ammended to include Illegal Monetization?

    Hmm. I like the idea of putting it in the rules/guidelines, but not actively enforcing it. Maybe some suitable warning notification can pop up when an author creates a new story, but that would be about it. I feel like responsibility would first fall on patreon (or whatever platform the...

    Can't decide between two common tropes

    If you choose to go for option #2, consider the following: Dies -> meets God -> reincarnated as a baby, but with an immediate time skip to adult life. That way you don't need to bother with the fusing memories thing. (To me, this would feel more natural that some fusing of memories, but idk if...

    Some tropes that I am uncomfortable reading

    Hmmm. Maybe time travel? I feel like it's possible to do well but most authors fail to actually pull it off properly. For example, a lot of the time authors pull out stuff like "alternate reality" and "this 'you' isn't that 'you'." when using time travel. I think this concept could be cool...

    This junior seeks a punishment for his terrible wordsmithing!

    I think your paragraph lengths were fine. If I had to nitpick, you probably had a few too many one-sentence paragraphs. You're right in saying that short paragraphs are impactful, but too many of them cause a loss in impact, if that makes sense.

    This junior seeks a punishment for his terrible wordsmithing!

    I didn't notice any spelling mistakes or grammer, so you can write English properly. That's always a good start. It's too early to really state anything about the story as a whole, though.

    Trolley problem. Just that.

    Thats correct, x' = A w cos(wt), so you can substitute that in to get 5 = A w, and solve for the amplitude of the motion. That would give you how far the spring compresses, but it's not necessary if you just want to work out the time taken for the motion.

    Trolley problem. Just that.

    To find the time taken for contact with the spring: m a = - k e 4 x 10^6 x" = -100,000 x x " = - x / 40 x = A * sin( wt) + A * cos(wt) , w = sqrt(1/40) x(0) = 0, so x = A sin(wt) The time in contact with the spring is half an oscillation, so wt = pi (velocity here doesn't actually matter...

    What Is Your Type?

    Chibi style is nice. Obviously this wouldn't work for all genres of story but that's just the story's fault for being the wrong genre.

    Do games have to be fun?

    I'm not a fan of overcomplicating a simple matter. I'm even less a fan of overcomplicating a complicated matter. If the word "fun" can work to define all types of enjoyment that we get from all different types of games, then let it. Sure, we can use the term "engaging" if we want to emphasise a...

    Pizza vs Noodles

    I never thought there'd be a poll so difficult. I think though if I could only choose to have one and never have the other again, I'd have to choose pizza. There are a lot of different types of pastas, so losing noodles wouldn't feel as much of a loss as losing pizzas.

    Is everyone a moron?

    This is true. This is false.

    Karmaa is a bridge!

    I sometimes do this to see what comes up if I search my novel. The results? Other novels with similar names to mine appear. Mine doesn't appear. At all. :blob_teary:

    Why not make this, poll for which you like more

    I like the idea of throwing a pokeball and having my butler Sebastian appear in a flash of red light. When emerging from the pokeball, he would greet me with his usual "Your orders, sir?" When I order him to use tackle attack, he would respond with "Very well, sir."
