Qidian needs to have a separate powerstone thing for Original Novels, I need all mine to keep my favorite translated novels up on the rankings.

I get it that they’re trying to give bonus rewards to support the authors. But power stones are coming from the readers, so what’s in store for us?

Promeo Even authors need to pay the bills if you expect authors to put in the time needed to create good quality works money has to come in somewhere or else you will only get unfinished, unedited hobby projects that belong on fanfic sites.

    Cobyboy that would be good to me, atleast i`ll have a chance to catch up!. they already got alot of followers, cus they made their books 3weeks before me! , if i get to top 10 in the first day, i could atleast get new viewers!

      Quhon it would be a lot of work for you, if you write it in your language, i respect your decision but i would suggest a more effective way, if you have enough time and money to spend, just write the chapters in english and hire an editor or you can ask any expert in english to voluntarily help you, if he does help you than you can just enjoy writing your chapters the way you write and leave the grammar work to your editor, if you can't find an editor i suppose you can just do whatever you want...everyone shall respect an author's decision. :thumbup:

        Cobyboy I don't think anybody can cross that mark. Not for another six months at least. This could only be possible when original move become more mainstream. But for now it is just as ridiculous as the 120.000 word count required or the contract.

            Anone It is hahaha as far as I'm concerned, the WN team wants to surprise themselves if someone could actually reach that mark, "I bet 200$ that they wouldn't reach 15k within a week" boom, prize money... hahaha

                Cobyboy yeah. But I guess the idea of a price money has everybody going insane.

                    Why bother a separate PowerStone System? Up Till now I didn't reall Care about PS as Top Translated Storys mostly stayed at the top. But now with Original Novels the PowerStones have gained new Value for me (supporting favourite Author/Story),

                    But yeah, the more Storys come in ... the more you want to Support ... The less you can actually distribute ... The Numbers keep getting thinner and thinner, but maybe, this is a good Thing. It might become easier to reach the top but also increase survival of the fittest.
                    What I have also realized is (maybe Just Imagination) that Storys that came since Day1 are more popular or Storys that came later or come in now, have it harder to get recognized. I think that is Natural as older ones could somewhat establish themselves, while newer ones need time (more chapters, Story Progress) to get "Discovered" and recognized and then maybe comes the jump through the DragonGate

                    WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL The Power Stones goals are a bit over the top for the Original novels. I’d recommend revising the current system to allow each user was eligible to vote Power Stones on 2 different types of novels; once a day for the “Translated Novels”, and once a day “Orginal Novels” with the Power Stones of their level. For example: a level 4 user receive 2 Power Stones daily, that level 4 user will be eligible to vote Power Stones two times; 2 Power Stones on Translated, and 2 Power Stones in Original. This would give more authors at least more of an incentive to write.

                        WEBNOVEL_OFFICIAL Hello. I'm the author of The Witch CEO who ranked 3rd last week. I was not able to accept the discord invite that was sent to my inkstone account. Unfortunately, the invite has expired before I could accept it now. I would like to request for a new discord invitation. Thank You!
