Have a good day, everyone~

Doggo update: Owners found. The phone number was of their relative, who has no dog... still doesn't make much sense tho... The dog slipped out through the open gate and went exploring. She was happy to see the owner and now she's home. Thanks everyone for being supportive...

[BSmatic]

dog was sent to you on purpose. To get that orange or a duck... It successfully infiltrated your household and planted some bugs probably.

[Azifri]

She was happy to see the owner

That's a good sign Hope she won't run away again.
Still, the phone number part was weird, but people can be weird.

[Nail]

Can't believe I forgot about this...

Still, the phone number part was weird, but people can be weird.

I can only assume that they had that number as their own (and they got the dog at that point) and then just landed the sim-card to their relative who had no idea about the dog... To be honest the woman that came did not made 100% impression of highly responcible owner... But the dog was happy to be reunited and although all this time she felt quiet comfy staying at us, yet still she was constantly looking forward to go and search her home.

did you missed something

Hey! That's another franchise! The spider dude brand is not established enough to do crossovers with other universes. I worked at marketing department of a confectionery company for god sake! I know what I'm doing.

[BSmatic]

let me talk to the manager...

[nostalgicroxas]

so the way ive uploaded my novel chapters in parts, to tell them away from other things updated on tapas that people might like, is i use an alphabet system

chapter 11-A
chapter 11-B
chapter 11-C
chapter 11-D

which was fine so far. but i have a chapter, that's not even my longest, thats all the way to the letter O

WHAT THE HECK DO I DO WHEN IT'S THE LONGER CHAPTERS AND IM LOOKING AT Z IN THE MIRROR?!?! DO I DO AA BB CC DD OR DO I START PUTTING IN SYMBOLS LIKE #

[Nail]

I obey so strongly, you don't even know what to command!

[BSmatic]

Why not Chapter 11 (Part 1)?

[nostalgicroxas]

I'd have to edit over 166 updates to follow a different format besides 11-alphabet

Another series I'm putting up here uses numbers: Chapter 06.1

similar to a game's patch numbers

EDIT
mostly this issue arose because if someone hits to LIKE an update, it says which one it is, but this notice doesn't say WHICH STORY it's from

which is why i cant name them all under the same system

[BSmatic]

Without tedious edits it seems it is inevitable to just continue to make things even more complicated...
Chapter 11-A.1?

[Kelheor]

which is why i cant name them all under the same system

You can add names for chapters, I mean, you made some really complicated system for no reason
You can finish with 166 updates in a few days, readers won't say anything bad =)

[nostalgicroxas]

They are.... named? That's how they're named stuff like Chapter 1-A and Chapter 1-B in each update? I'm confused by what you mean

[Kelheor]

Like the name name, with words, not a letter and a number But yeah, it's not chapters, but parts problem. Still, if you will go all the way up to Z and then start naming them Chapter3-AA it would be more confusing for everyone.

[vothnthorvaldson]

If tapas handles other scripts in titles (I don't know) there's that option (after the Z). Greek is usually used in this case.

[nostalgicroxas]

It's not a problem of if so much as when considering chapters get longer after #72 (the culprit that hit the letter "O"). I mean, ch99 was too big for a single post on dA because of their 64kb limit on literature uploads @_@ Long chapters are just part and parcel to this novel since a while ago.

I wonder if I could do something like::

Chapter 3-ZA
Chapter 3-ZB

that way it's obvious that it carries on after the letter Z (other than you know the order they're uploaded in lol)

@vothnthorvaldson - Tapas the website might in that PCs at large can handle a lot of non-US english scripts without special fonts being installed. But if a mobile phone can do the same is questionable ..........

Today I re-watched recording of discussion of math stuff in zoom from the last week.
Laughed from my face on that recording:

(That was just complicated moment to understand XD XD XD)
