Post #257,945 by ben_tilly 6/7/06 12:09:30 AM Reply	That advice is only good if... you're dealing with someone who knows that they want to read the series. But Laura doubts that she wants to read the series at all. Therefore it makes sense to start with a relatively independent book like Small Gods or Pyramids so she can find out that she does want to read the rest of them.

Post #257,946 by admin 6/7/06 12:23:20 AM 6/7/06 12:23:45 AM Reply	Depends. You're assuming that one, "The Colour Of Magic" isn't good enough to keep her attention in the first place (personally, I think it's a great book), and two, that she's not the sort of person who really likes to read things in the order they were written (like me). You gave me the same advice and I blithely ignored you, and I'm glad I did. ;-) Regards, -scott anderson "Welcome to Rivendell, Mr. Anderson..."

Post #257,947 by ben_tilly 6/7/06 12:48:02 AM Reply	Fewer assumptions than you think I'm not assuming that the first book will not be able to keep her attention, I'm expressing fear that it might not. While I liked it, I agree with Todd that it is a weaker book than the rest, and Meerkat stands as an example showing that this fear is valid. I'm also not assuming anything about how much she wants to read things in the order that they were written. I'm making it perfectly clear what order they were written in, and saying where I would suggest starting. Laura's a big girl, I assume that if she's anal-retentive about doing things in the "right" order, then she'll know that about herself and know to disregard advice that won't work for her - like you did. The fact that I offer advice doesn't mean that I expect that advice to be blindly accepted. If I did have that expectation then I'd just say, "Here's what I recommend." But I don't, so instead I say, "Here's what I recommend and why I recommend it." What to do with that advice is then entirely up to her.

Post #258,343 by broomberg 6/9/06 6:49:28 PM Reply	Needs a review panel for weighting #1 - Action speak louder than thoughts. If you really think you should get points for thoughts, fine, but actions should be weighted with a multiplier. #2 - Individual Yes No scores should not have the same value for wildly varying activities. Some things are much more "valuable" from a points perspective. So, we need a range of possible weighting factors, let's say 1-5. And it only applies to actions, not thoughts.

Kept eyes open while orgasming during sex? Were you looking in your partner's eyes? Used lingerie during sex? Used toys during sex? Used roleplay during sex? Had partner pretend to be person you'd rather be fucking? Was it someone you both knew? Pretended to be person your partner would rather fuck? Was it someone you both knew? Tried water sports? (If you have to ask what that is, you haven't.) Tried strangulation? Tried S&M? As top? As bottom? Suffered/inflicted injury during sex? (Accident OK.) Continued anyways? Intentionally did it again?

(Lechery included.) Cheers, Ben I have come to believe that idealism without discipline is a quick road to disaster, while discipline without idealism is pointless. -- Aaron Ward (my brother)

Post #258,307 by ben_tilly 6/9/06 2:13:01 PM Reply	Reading it more carefully... You're right that Barry's overall score is likely to be higher than yours. But my point was that he can't be missing much on any section, lechery included, if he got the score he did. So if unless you have close to a perfect score on that, Barry beat you on that section too. Anyways this is not a good way to resolve this question.
