Sorry, not sorry for the wall of text.
I'm a word slut. Everyone on this thread knows it, so ... I apologize for nothing!
(If it TRULY offends you, write me a mini-set and have one of the girls punish me. That may or may not get me to rethink my position.
)
Everything that is specifically targeted to individuals is in spoilers. Anything that "might" be interesting to the "average" HMC player is not ...
@Bjorn: When did you graduate from "novice" to "HMC thread edgeslut veteran?"
Like, the last time I looked at your rules, they were simple, and now, you got all these "modes" like Misty!
Are you still in like the 30 edge club, or has playing all these sets gotten you into 50?
Or higher!?
I'm just curious. With rules like this:
If there is a strapon or butt plug; edge ones for every visible nipple, pussy and ass in the picture.
you can rack up like 15 edges EASY in like three pics, and a photo set of three lesbians with one strap-on ... you could EASILY surpass 50 edges in a SINGLE scene ...
Whenever I'm designing a set, I *try* to keep the person's limits in mind and "budget" my edges. So, if I know how big my edge budget is going in, that will help me make decisions about how many scenes and what photo sets to choose. Mostly, I'm commenting here on being pleasantly surprised at your growth as a stroker and wanted to give you an "attaboy" ... but, I'm also curious about your stamina, because I eventually WILL make a return set for you, and I don't want to break you when I do it ...
Honestly, I think everyone should include their edging stamina—or at least a rough range—in their rules. Without knowing that, it's hard to gauge.

Ohh, you have a lot of caught up to do... yes you do!
So, I USUALLY do a good job of NOT peeking at sets—because I LIKE to be surprised (though I usually read the "pre-set instructions" as soon as they are posted), but ...

I was VERY happy to see that teaser pic of Kaleesy.
Originally, I saw the "try to be honest," and I thought, "Okay. Whatever the girls ask, no matter WHAT your cock says or worrying about hurt feelings (if it's a story/role play situation), you just GOTTA be honest with them ... which is kind of scary in a way, because, yeah ... THAT'S when the girls can REALLY get you!
Now that I know it's Kaleesy, and I want her to move in SO BAD to the Village ... yeah. It's gonna be rough!
By the way, that last set for Chabo you made ... I STARTED it the one day, but, then I was in the mood for something "short", and I was like "Ummm, this ain't gonna be short." So, I stopped after like a scene or two. At SOME point I'll go back to it, but ... if THIS set is LONG set compared to that one ... Last month I joined the 100 edge club. It was NOT due to HMC sets but something else and it took me like 4.5 hours, but ... I'm pretty sure I'll be able to handle it ... I'll just make sure to budget a LOT of time and maybe rest the day before I play it!
PoetBird wrote: Wed Jan 19, 2022 6:20 pmFatt's comment about being tempted to peek at Helequin's set got me wondering if people would like to be able to give others permission to see or play what they're version of my "8 Files" game looks like. Just a thought.
Oh, I play and read through other people's sets ALL the time!
I peeked at Helequin's because I was curious about the format and story. It seems interesting. I know you like hunting for pictures, PoetBird. Making a nice template and then customizing it based on model preference ... I think that's a pretty good idea!
I'm ALWAYS looking for wants to "write sets more efficiently" ... I might steal that idea some time ... like, maybe in August of 2024 when I finally catch up with everything.

you are REALLY busy now. I just look at your set status' from time to time and there is SO much... Jesus
@Misty: I mean, I AM and I'm NOT ... I'm behind on playing two targeted sets. The rest of the "Need to Play" are everyone sets, so ... there's no rush there ... For set construction, #1 far and away is Ecik, #2 the every one PoetBird return set. Return set for Bjorn will probably sneak in to #3, and probably “Correcting Village Anomaly” set for PoetBird ... the others are more back burner. And the bottom two are SUPER back burner ... and I'll probably do a "game show" before the "Village Premier" set—which will be LONG and ... after THIS ONE ... I'm sort of burnt out on writing long sets for a WHILE!

This was a fun one and showed that mostly ‘random’ images can still be a lot of fun.
I appreciate you EVERY time you write this, Hele.
Just because I go CRAZY writing sets does NOT mean that should be the EXPECTATION for sets on the thread. I've enjoyed creative writing since middle school. This thread has become an outlet for my creativity and an excuse to get back into writing and "telling stories." Every time you write this and I read it, I think, "Okay, Fatts, you don't HAVE to go crazy long writing your next set ... it's FINE to keep it simple ... unless you really ENJOY writing it ..." and then the set goes off the rails!
At this point, the current WIP feels more like a project for work than it does a "tease for fun." But, it's too late. I've already decided to go "full dynamo" on the set, and I refuse to back down and let my artistic vision take a hit!
There are pages of just text at certain points—not for sex teases, but in between SOME of the scenes for the story. THAT'S where MOST of my time has gone ... In that regard, it's almost a hybrid between a sex tease and a short story ... more like a sex tease with some story breaks, I guess? Idk. I'm curious about how people will like it once it's finally published
...
Just curious: Was the term "scene" in use for a while BEFORE I joined the thread? I'm pretty sure I picked it up from some post I saw here, but ... I've been using it CONSTANTLY since I joined, and other people have been using it more. Was it
already in use, or did I help to popularize it?
I seem to be starved on ideas for the moment, so no set from me tonight
If you want to write but have no ideas, you can always try your hand an an everyone set Game Show set like Ecik and Bjorn did a few pages back!
I laid out a game "template" for the format in this post:
Not sure how much they followed it, but ... that's also not the point, as seeing how each person "makes the concept their own" is part of the fun!
. (0/1 sets) (All rules are halved for pictures with a man in them)
.
, and made me think is not a great idea to overlook rules 
. At least I managed to hold myself for Toxic I guess
