Lonelytree Tree other what stories are you translating right now?
Thriller Paradise is down again.
If you are willing to continue translating Thriller Paradise, what monthly $ is the goal?
I love the novel and I don't make much in Rl but I am willing to donate for it.
After Tales of herding Gods was dropped, I returned to this novel, damn it Webnovel!
I am frustrated as well.
I just wanted you to know that I really appreciate the work you have put on translating this and I am willing to support you, even thought the $ I can set aside monthly can't be too much for my income.
Lastly, cheers!

Warhand Thank you for your kind support. I'm still trying to work out a solution with Qidian. Hopefully something can be done.
As if way of the devil wasn't abandoned like 17 times already. Had shit release rate. Shit tl. Abandoned many times. Nice....
Aw man... this site seems to always drop good novels and go for the cliche and unoriginal ones, like honestly I've had enough of the same novel written with different names as MCs... :// Hope everything goes well on your side though! Big fan of your quality translations (hey hey drop that Patreon link if you've got one! def worth it) , and all the best

Tales of Herding Gods was dropped? What a shame.
Fck, what's wrong with you guys dropped many novel and then pick a new novel over and over again and then you just dropped it again? And this sht repeat so many times.
Just finished the goddamn novel first and then pick the new novel.
Okay, the situation is this. The virus has impacted the income too much and the payment for tling TP is simply not sufficient to keep it going. So if i am going to continue TP, they will still provide me with the platform but i'll be doing it technically as a fan translation. Meaning I'll have to survive on donation.
Lonelytree I thought websites would do better since people were bored at home. How did the virus mess it all up?
shelwyn People are not reading TP. Cause of the constant dropping, the 'other' translations and other who knows what.
People are bored at home but they are also losing jobs and reading is a luxury.
Lonelytree Drop a patreon and monthly goal, no idea how you should proceed, you know best yourself
Warhand I was offered to pick up a new novel working at a much lower price, Plague Doctor. I have no choice but to take it. That leaves me no more time for Tp. The site will still keep on posting until the chapter I've translated so there is still a long way to go. Perhaps if the book has picked up enough traction by then, the company will have me continue it. Let's hope.
Lonelytree They are picking up Plague Doctor?!
moodycrowl Still negotiating the contract. Will be basically working for pennies. But I am willing since so many of my readers want it to be picked up.
Yeah. Plague Doctor is very good but WN never picked it up.

Lonelytree The main reason traction hasn't increased for TP is because the ending of the current tournament arc is a major milestone for the story and it starts getting more interesting as the story progresses. Maybe if the author adopted a few more cliches or this novel was promoted more then the traction could have increased.
knytfury Too late now. It's already dropped
yeah, that sucks. I hope it gets picked up again and translated by you or someone who is as good as you. And if someone else decides to do it, I hope that he doesn't mess around with your translation. I had to drop omniscient reader because new translator decided to change almost every characters name and almost every major terms used in the story. I know the translator was trying to be close to the original work. But a lot of terms didn't fit in properly. And the characters felt different and I was so confused when they would mention character names. I was like who are they talking about. So, I just dropped it after reading 1or 2 chapters with the new translator.
