All i see is romance novel

euphy_megumeru Lol, almost half are male fics though. Maybe your eyes are just spinning due to the long list

JiaLi Directly messaged the TLs, they are the ones who have full rights and control of their release sched.

This week is pretty balanced. And it's finally a decent list of discounts. Looking forward to it

Discount for The Beautiful Time With You when it's not even being updated anymore

Finally, a lot of REAL (5 or higher) mass releases. Thank you, translators.

CKtalon We appreciate all extra and mass releases. Please don't be demoralized by the opinion of a single person. T.T I'm sure many love seeing the long list of mass releases since it means more variety and chaps to read.

CKtalon any chance for discount to buy SS ? Or maybe more bonus SS ?

GegeSadewa There might be one soon.

CKtalon NB I am talking about translations here coz I know the situation for originals is different. There was a time when mass releases were at least 5 chapters and some novels had regular releases that were 3 or more so yeah, my standard was set by how webnovel was before. Gradually they lowered what they called "mass release" and I remember commenting about that before too. If you find that demoralizing, then that's sad, but like somebody said, it's one person's opinion. I'm sure it won't keep you up at night. Webnovel likes lowering the standard little by little, probably counting on the newbies to be happy with how things are since they don't know how things were. Oh well.

ace_cap Gotta be content with what we have right now. Translating or writing originals, whichever it is, I don't think it's easy to continuously pump up chapters after chapters every day. Anyway, what other sites can offer authors or translator that mass releases weekly.

ace_cap That was when 5 were on top of like 1-2 chapters a day. Now that the base release has been increased to 2-3, it's naturally harder to actually provide more.

CKtalon

I am of the opinion that a mass release is like 10 chapters. I guess it depends on the chapter length but when FMHM had a 5 chap mass release and the content is like 5 pages you start to question if it is worth it to "Mass Release".

Is_It_Out_Yet So the alternative is nothing? It is a release beyond the usual release, and en masse.

CKtalon Interesting. I did not notice any increase in the regular release rate. If anything, it has gone down for several novels. In any case, what you said is an excuse, but it still doesn't make 3 chapters a mass release, especially for those romance novels that have really short chapters. It's more of a mini release. A mass release implies you can binge read. Nobody's saying it's not worth releasing 3 chapters, just that it's not really a mass release.

ace_cap The several novels you talk about are just like 10-20 books over 300 translated books. Overall, there is a rise in release rates. There will always be some books that will have trouble maintaining a speed due to variety of problems (real life issues, etc). And if a book returns to normal, there will be bound to be another book that will have problems later, and that's what keeps your attention that MANY books are having problems, when it's just a handful for a period of time. Once the issue is fixed, things go back to normal, but that is often conveniently forgotten.

Years, ago it was 3 chapters a week, and 2 years ago, it was closer to 10/week, now it's almost 14/week for the longer male chapter books, and about 21 for female books. Together with the nearly weekly mass releases, that raises some books to 17 (longer) chapters/week.

WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL positive praise for another nice Mass Release week round up :thumbsup: :grin:

Thank you authors for your extra work this week. :hearts: :heart:

CKtalon Not here to argue about what "several" means or the release rate of novels. When I joined, the release rate was more like 14-21/week for the regular releases, and mass releases were 5-10. For at least one novel there was a mass release till the end. Calling 3 chapters a mass release after all that sounds absurd regardless of the explanations. I can understand your reasons, but I still think real mass releases are 5 or higher. Three chapters are just extra releases. I'm sure readers are thankful, however, there are certain expectations that were set by precedents for what mass release means.

euphy_megumeru ikr

WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL when will they have comic discounts and prom9s

WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL Can we ask for a mass release on Mr. Major General please!!!

euphy_megumeru all i see is faggot novels.

WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL cool

Why no mass release of trial marriage?

wow..

Another useless dicounts

Sharonmyoui Hehe~

ace_cap Mass releases, although the term 'mass' does seem unsuitable, but is a lot more bonus chapters than the regular release rates. Say a novel gets 2 chapters per day. 3 chapters in a mass release would be added on to the 2, equaling 5. Definitely better than the usual. Plus... it truly seems you don't realize the work going into translating. I bet this is just a side-job for them, and that they don't have much time. 98% of all the novels I read just a few months back weren't on Webnovel (some are here now), and were being updated whenever the translators have time or felt like it. Some took months or years, and some were completely dropped. Although I miss how Webnovel used to be, but this is still relatively new internationally and will definitely be prone to change (albeit a little too much than necessary). But no matter what, I'm thankful whenever a novel I like is added to Webnovel because the translators get more monetary support and update more regularly. The difference is very noticeable

ooow hell yeah

YulongYuXianTaiyin The bone of contention here is the terminology, not about how difficult their jobs are. Anyway, you guys can keep talking about how difficult it is, still, back to the original point that cktalon took issue with -- 5 chapters or higher are what I consider a real mass release. That's all I'm willing to discuss, not the non-sequitur about how hard it is to release chapters. Scolding me for my opinion won't change my mind.

Btw, I do know how difficult the job is because I've done it myself. You'd be surprised at how big the stockpile of some translation groups/translators are. The new "privilege" system should clue you in. I'm not gonna go enter any discussion about this, however. Anyone wanting to talk about this can just check out any of the threads about the new system.

For a new novel, I recommend 'Mad God' (it was originally published by Qidian).

JiaLi yupp...im agree with u...

WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL Thanks for once again releasing the list of discounted books on this post. When it was just the other page/app link not all your customers could access it. Adding back this communication channel on discounted novels is very useful to at least some of us.

@GegeSadewa Thanks for filling in during the last hiatus. There was no benefit for you doing so, but you still shared this information anyway. Much appreciated.

WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL what about the trial marriage husband....
