Thanks for the series, I've done the first 14 sessions.
I like Audrey Bitoni and her friendsand I like the teases and ideas! :thumbsup: :clap2:
The length of each tease is good, not too short. The best series I've ever tried.
I like the fact that Audrey not humilates me so hard. She seems a teasing, but caring person.
1. In day 14 the video on youtube no longer exists.
Perhaps in the future authors could write the name of the video and/or length in the tease.
When it comes to stroking to a Audrey Bitoni Tease with the same length could do the job, when the link don't work and we don't know the Name of the video.
When we know the name of the video, we can search at google and watch on another website.
2. I had sometimes a problem to understand what to do.
3. For tease 14 and all other teases.
As a general idea, perhaps can you add a ~ time of the tease, ae. 30 - 60 minutes or 5 - 15 minutes.
Sometimes it's frustrating when I start a tease and it ends after 5 pages and 6 minutes.
Thanks again.

Yeah, it was to be espected. when links are abused etc by others they get disabled. that is what probably happened

I've been hoping Ritz would update them at some point, or post a list of video URLs here, but this would clearly be quite a bit of work so I understand this not being that easy....

Pity for such a great series to be left gutted tho

Actually, the issue is that the entire vb.ly domain was axed by the Libyan government (who control the .ly domain). I don't know if the folks who run the site will make an effort to recover the links, but it has certainly made a mess of these teases.

Aha... well, hopefully Ritz has an overview over which vids were used where

Hey all... I noticed the vb.ly site is down as well... unfortunately I don't have a list of what videos were linked to the shortened urls. Obviously that puts a major damper on a lot of the series. At some point I may go back and change them... if I get the time to do that, I'll post it here. I've been a bit more motivated to write a few new teases then fix up the old ones, but I suppose I should get to that considering the effort that went into the series.

On an unrelated note, I enjoy writing quality teases- I typically write ones that I would enjoy doing myself, and I'm open to suggestions for future teases.

Thanks Ritz, good to hear from you.

I can completely relate to the fact that it is more fun and rewarding to write new material than go do maintenance on older teases, but in this case I for one strongly urge you to try and find the time and motivation to do so at some point - for the single reason of that tease being the best series ever produced on this site and it would be too much of a shame to see all that work diminished due to broken links :-D

I'd recomend you to write the duration of the videos next time - so even if something is missing - players always could find substitution. :-|

That's very kind. I'll get to it within the next week or two, and I'll post when the changes have been made.

Even on video-hosting sites as xtube or youporn (they were used if I'm not mistaken) video sometimes gets deleted for different reasons.

But yes, it's another option - to have a page in a tease (last one?) where all the links are given with times. ;-)

Yeah that's a good idea Nez - either as a page in the tease itself, or as part of the initial post of a feedback thread here on the forum, like this one.

I'd prefer the latter I think, since you can't copy&paste from flash teases (the only remaining drawback for flash teases imo)
