What is 4tw btw?
duck bastard
4tw is 4thewords! It's a writing game website, a little bit like a RPG. There's a big ol' main storyline ("save the land from this bad thing"), places to travel all over the land as you unlock parts of that storyline, and various sidequests in all those places!
duck bastard
Plus, regular events, like the nano event that the site/app is running right now!
Hayley
huh... that's actually kind of neat!
duck bastard
Basically, it all revolves around defeating monsters, which is basically writing x amount of words in y amount of time
duck bastard
my referral code is EMPDK52646
duck bastard
if you ever want to give it a try
duck bastard
the only downside is that it requires a subscription of $4 a month, but you do get a whole month free to try it out, to see if it helps you! Which it does for me, because the combinbation of goals and a time limit keeps my brain on track
duck bastard
It just started it's Nano event, so right now is a really good time to give it a go
duck bastard
It has a really neat organization system on the site on the writing side

duck bastard
various little RPG elements like weapons making it take less words to defeat a monster and armor giving you more time

customizable avatars with clothing items that are really easy to earn just by participating in events and such

duck bastard
and the various enemies you have to fight are all really creative, with wonderful art and various word/time lengths so that there's always something everyone can handle!

PirateTaiga
heeeeeyaaaa James... be a good bird and tell me how can i friend you on 4tw
PirateTaiga
(also yes, I am that dumbass that makes an account and ONLY then realizes he could have asked for a referal from people already in the game ... //facepalms at self)
duck bastard
If you go to your dashboard, you can scroll down to the friends section, and there's a tiny little "add friend" bar next to it! just type in "trilies" and that's meee
duck bastard
PirateTaiga
got it! request sent
duck bastard
I will accept after I finish dishes!
duck bastard
I've done the math and, to finish this quest line, I gotta do like 5k a day lmao....
duck bastard
pray for my dumbass soul
duck bastard
but listen this cape looks sweet
duck bastard
"james it says the chain is available after the event" i am a masochist, listen
PirateTaiga
it does look badasss, and i'll be last person to discourage you from ambitious goals...but it is insane, that's nanowrimo x 3
PirateTaiga
also 5k a day is like ... 2.5 of daily average so hahaha, if i will be able to do 1.5k daily i'd be happy
duck bastard
fight, win!
PirateTaiga
duck bastard
these events always have a ton to do, so you won't be lacking in goals or inspiration, lmao
duck bastard
my average REALLY RECENTLY has been, like.... 2 or 3k of words... so I just gotta push myself.... ;v; /fist clench
PirateTaiga
my average is more like 500 words before my attention span burns out ... soooo 1.5k is already a stretch goal, but welp
duck bastard
I hope 4tw helps you out on that then! I've found it's really good at that "just one more" kind of thing, and 500 words is exactly what you need to start and keep up a writing streak by the site's standards
duck bastard
the battle list thing has been really good for this as well for me
PirateTaiga
that's what I'm counting on ;-)
duck bastard
got 428 words out today.... gotta keep going [birdfight]
PirateTaiga
go go go, you're mighty bird!
duck bastard
duck bastard
I have a quest that I want to at least finish up!!! It was the one they just released yesterday on halloween that ties into this
duck bastard
the good news is that a lot of the monsters in it are pretty low word count, so I should be able to do it
duck bastard
856 now....
PirateTaiga
I'm still trying to figure out what's going with the quests and all ;-)
PirateTaiga
856 niiiiiiice
PirateTaiga
I'm sure you can at least get to 1k like that
duck bastard
If you have any questions, let me know! I know there's a small starter quest you have to do at the very beginning, but I'm not sure how that works with the nano event going on
duck bastard
one quest finished!!!
duck bastard
I can be satisfied with my new adorable space bat ears...
PirateTaiga
duck bastard
my next quest involves taking down foes that are 1667 words to beat..... rip
PirateTaiga
NaNoWriMo average :-D
PirateTaiga
btw where is the event because I'm just seeing some starter quest with bridge building but nothing seasonal
duck bastard
That's the starter quest I mentioned before! you'll want to complete that
duck bastard
I think after you build the bridge, everything opens up, and the event area should be on the map
PirateTaiga
ok, thanks! i just looked around and saw nothing else
duck bastard
They did a sort of "soft reset" of the site, with new story beats and such, and I know the starter quest was one of them... but I'd already been on the site by that point, lmao, so I'm still unfamiliar with it a bit...
PirateTaiga
ok, now it makes sense...
duck bastard
the only time i've dealt with the starter quest is when telling other people how to move through the starter quest XD
PirateTaiga
i know i need to gather wood :-D but that's all for now :-P
duck bastard
Yeah, I know that you need to gather some materials, and then you go to one of the shops to have the bridge be made, and I think that finishes the quest?
duck bastard
it's not that complicated, from what I understand... I think.
PirateTaiga
exactly, that's exactly what it takes
duck bastard
i've managed to get 3703 words done..... and now I just want to nap....
PirateTaiga
i got to 2715... and now i really need to go to sleep
PirateTaiga
congratulations on your almost 4k!!
duck bastard
grips ur hand.... sleep alliance
duck bastard
Did you manage to get to the event?
duck bastard
also.... victory....
duck bastard
time to fight again today
PirateTaiga
no, I have been defeated by catte being to warm, still clocked 2.7k words which is absolutely fantastic
PirateTaiga
today I try to at least reach nano daily goal and that should get me through starter quest
PirateTaiga
duck bastard
ah yes.... the struggle of catte
duck bastard
i have been bested by that many a time....
duck bastard
does a coin flip for a thing (coin)
duck bastard
keeps this as a reminder for myself too
https://imgs.plurk.com/Qye/Y8s/4eY2mO4ndjtVN2fNSJHK2RSXTRP_lg.png
duck bastard
19 minutes until team dawn is met!
duck bastard
vibrates excitedly
Meet: Team Dawn
duck bastard
20k more and I'll finish the first half of that monster quest that i started this plurk off with.... fist clench...
duck bastard
HEEEEY i leveled up while doing this, lmao!
