I hope the DC gang can find their way out of there! (Unfiction projects are quite the undertaking. I tried to run one in college for a class project, and it totally fizzled out!)

hi melonking!! I love your site!! I was wondering if the closing on monday thing is a manual patch you send out every week or if you have an automated system in place for it? I love the idea and was curious how the upkeep worked. Thanks for makin cool stuff!!

Thanks, your sites are really fun! Ok soo, so this site uses a weirdly complex automation made with Node.js - I made it really complex so it would be foolproof even if I was silly and updated my site while it was closed and messed everything up! However, later I also made a much simpler script that people can put on their site to get almost the same functionality! https://forum.melonland.net/index.php?topic=1502.0

thanks!! and THAT'S SO COOL!! definitely gonna look into this!! it seemed like it'd be so complicated to set something like this up, it's so awesome that you went out of your way to make an accessible script for people to use!

aaa thank you!! it's a lot of hidden stuff that might never get the payoff if no one ever finds it haha, so there's definitely some ups and downs to the genre. but it's also a great medium I've found for telling a BIT of story and letting the reader feel like they're uncovering something and trying to fill blanks. the nvrlyalone/lwam project was originally an unfiction project but I couldn't get enough eyes on it LOL
