Damn man sorry to hear that...Nothing wrong with reading a good history book. What sort of writing style we're you thinking of?

**Bootsiuv** · 09-11-2007, 23:52

I dunno, probably more of a story-book approach i.e. from a characters point of view.

I just love reading history books....I can read them all day long, but I think I'm the exception, rather than the rule.

I think most people just aren't interested in history textbooks, and my story probably gave them flashbacks of history class. :P

Oh well, like I said, not all of us can be a, well, you. :)

Did you happen to look at the amount of views you have? Chirurgeon didn't get 1000 views in a day it was over the course of weeks.

I know....but usually a few people post after a new chapter....I took the lack of posting to mean a lack of interest.

I do these things for the enjoyment of others, and I was afraid no one was enjoying it.

I dunno, I guess if enough people are interested, I'll continue, I just figured it was too textbooky for people to really enjoy, but that's the writing style that I'm best at.

BTW, I'm not pouting or anything....so please don't take it that way. I'm actually in a really happy mood right now, due to some other factors. :)

Like I said, it's just A LOT of work to do an aar (and anyone who has ever done one with screenshots will attest to that fact) and I'm not going to continue if no one is digging it.

That doesn't mean I won't write another aar....I love to write too much to do that. :)

Whew! You had me worried. I can understand though especially with The Dreaded DIAL-UP!!!

I'll never go back now that I have broadband.

keep going, its good to see a bactrian aar they have a great mix of troops so its good to read the different tactics used against the other factions

You realize I put over 20 hours a week into my playing of EB and then did screenshots, stories, and friggin movies!! I know people appreciate it and realized only 4% of viewers left a comment...4%!! But those 4% are near and dear to my heart because I somehow affected them. If this was real life those 4% would be hanging out at the pub with me :) You have affected us. So dont worry about it. Im actually enjoying a break from writing, and enjoying reading other contributions. So close your eyes, put youself in Baktria, and let the words flow through your fingers and out into cyberspace.

Hmmm, I guess you are right about the % thing.

Perhaps I was a little disheartened when no one left any comments after 18 hours. I do know that most people are lurkers.

After thinking about it further, perhaps I over-reacted initially.

What the hell, I'll keep it going. For shits and giggles. :)
