According to their Facebook, the change is going to be, watch up to three ads to unlock 1 episode per ad. And it sound like the episodes are only unlocked for 72 hours. Tapas is now starting to sound more and more like Webtoon. :cry:

The video ad ink has not been available for me on the device that I updated the Tapas app on. Separately, the ad offers for ink have not been working for me at all since 10/30, but there have been times in the past when they have not worked for me for up to several weeks, but then have gone back …

Both, but I lean more toward historical fantasy not just medieval era. For modern fantasy, I prefer that there is some focus on how history has been changed because of the presence of fantasy elements.

Yea, that is my brain when I feel like writing something, but it is late enough that I only feel like writing the summarized version of what I was thinking.

Fan service is like salt, use a little bit not the whole bottle.

This one below looks like a Japanese manga. I would say as a reader that it is easier to read a comic in the format I expect and for English that is left to right.

I mean instead of clingy teenage romance you can have cute puppy love or whatever you want to call. That said I often prefer adult romances, in part, simply because there is a lot more teenage romance in anime, manga, and light novels.

Here is my 2 cents as a reader. Tapas does not have a great way of keeping track of where you are when reading something. One way to keep track of where you are in a series is to like the current chapter you are reading, but this method is not as useful if you liked every past episode. So, this c…

From the reader pov, I like it when hiatus are predicable and it is nice when authors have a built-in schedule for a break rather than a sudden announcement. I understand that is not always possible, but in those cases it is best to be open about it to the readers. Also for me, it can be hard to ge…

This list is in no particular order and I am only including anime I watched all of the series of. Also, I am sure I forgot some anime. Slayers Wolf’s Rain Crest of the Stars / Banner of the Stars Darker than Black ( only season 1) Toward the Terra Casshern Sins Chrono Crusade Fullmetal Alchemist…

Well, from the reader perspective, unlocking novels by episodes on Tapas can be expensive and quickly use up a lot of ink. For example, if someone wanted to permanently unlocked all the episodes available for “The beginning after the end” novel that would be over 90,000 ink. I have also found the ki…

You could try the .hack//Sign anime. Disclaimer, that I have not watched it for a long time.

It is sad that this kind of thing is happening on Tapas, I thought this place was suppose to be more creator friendly. And it reminds me that Webtoon has also sometimes not treated authors well.

A lot of people would go crazy, but not all at the same time. Grudges might work differently, because would you care that someone killed you 100,000 loops ago when 100s of other people have killed you since then? That said I would feel the worst for the people who are forced to have to repeat the…

In other news, my ink offers are now worth half what they used to be and one of my weekly free episodes was for a complete series I have unlocked all of the way.

Unless the rules have changed very recently, bonus ink that expires sooner gets used first. So, you should have +300 bonus ink left (ignoring that that date is the 20 not 19 for my answer). If you look at the total amount of ink you have, it will also tell you how much is bonus ink.

From what I have tested with a new series it is possible to unlock all episodes of a series except one if you unlock them while the WUF timer is still charging. However, the last episode will be stuck in an endless WUF time-loop.

Unfortunately, it appears to be permanent so far. If you look at the help section of the app it mentions the new 72 hour unlock for WUF.

I think we can divide up how people unlocked WUF series on the previous version into several different strategies or groups. People who did not wait for WUF timers and unlocked episodes on the day the series was released. This group is probably also correlated with people who like to make top co…

Hm, maybe rewarding yourself when you get homework done earlier would work better. Try reading this article it might give you some good ideals or a different perspective.

Sounds like you need to put roadblocks in the way of the instant positive feedback you get from looking at new or fun things. This can be hard to do. The simplistic thing to do would be keep all non school or homework related apps or web pages closed when doing homework. Only google school related t…

Do you drink caffeinated beverages? That seems to help some people with adhd focus without medication. I would find an area to regularly do you homework at and your cellphone and any other distractions must be an inconvenient walking distance away or at least not in arms reach. One question, i…

Yea, it seems like the new WUF setup is not friendly toward people who want to ignore it and just permanently unlocked all of their episodes with ink. Personally, I do not see very much benefit to changing the WUF model to this. I will not be spending more ink due to this, I will simply not be un…

As of version 6.6.0 of the app, WUF are no longer unlocked permanently. Version 6.6.0 only described it as new 3hr WUF product feature and minor bug fixes and did not say anything about the WUF change. To make matters worse, it only took them 5 or 6 days to force users to update the app to that vers…

Okay, I am posting on this again because it has not been fixed since I still experience this problem with most of my WUF series. Anyone else still experiencing this issue?

My WUF timer is activating for series that do not have any episodes available to unlock and I am now having to scroll past dozens of series on my list to get to series that have available episodes. It is getting to the point where I am not unlocking new WUF episodes because I have to scroll down ev…

Okay, I got the free episodes now.

Literally all I see under gifts on the app is the fortune cookie, the rest is a blank screen. Anyone have the same problem or know what is going on?

I assume these are not legit kindle book postings by the original author, especially since I have not heard about The Villainess Is a Marionette getting an ebook.
