The scoring system is going to be changed

Approve "Pickle" you cowards.

Unrounded view numbers are now available below each story for authors

I still just see the read count as before -- real number below 1000, then decimals.

All the scores have been replaced by a flamy thing and 0. Is that where the like number will appear eventually?

Click into your story and scroll to the end, but before the scores.

I like the new 'Interactions' thingy- thank you for that.

Nice to be able to see again what friends have been up to, even what they were up to long before I joined LUSH.

Hello, is the heart (like) plus the star (favorite) gonna equal the flame (score)? When the system finishes calculating stuff??? Or am I confused?

there's a flame score? now who's confused. :)

Okay, got it. I was expecting it to show in the story list, so I didn't have to open every 1000+ story. Luckily, I don't have many, so no biggy.

All the rest of the data fields show 0 on all the stories, so I guess it will take a while to work through, as you say.

Not for you -- you're already too hot to handle!

There is something that looks like a flame to me at the top of the list of 'scores' at the foot of my 'in production' story.

That's the idea :)

Just to clarify, yes there's currently a problem with page pagination. This has been reported, but it might be tomorrow before it's fixed, thanks.

Story scores are being updated in the background. There are a heck of a lot of stories here going back 16 years, so this will take a bit of time to complete.

Your likes and favourites are also undergoing a change, but this should be sorted soon.

There have been no suggested changes. The feedback I get consistently is usually along the lines of “Dani, no.”

I think you’re all afraid that Pickle will change the course of Lush story submissions as we know it. You can’t hide the truth forever. Pickle will have its day, I tell you!!!

Hello, me again. Please look at below. People with no comment have suddenly popped up in between my comments. What is that from?

I noticed it too when my comment counts doubled. I did a question under Help below.

It doesn't happen on newly published stories, Kis. I think it must be people who voted on stories before the change. Maybe I can figure out who gave me the '1's now. Ha!

Yep, that was my thought. Funny how I always got a down vote soon after publishing and the same name keeps popping up right then with never a comment...

Well, at least the real view numbers are available somewhere. It's an incredible pain in the ass to have to click and scroll every single one to see them.

Whatever the templating excuse for truncating the numbers in our main list is, it's insufficient as far as I'm concerned. If necessary, give us a private list that shows ALL the raw numbers in one location so nobody else has to see that "bad design" except the author. That would be a step toward restoring list sorting capability anyway. The excellent new series code already has the base elements of that in place. If it's going to continue to be paginated, we need searchability and/or sortability by any statistic as well.

We need to be able to find a specific story and see the numbers in a reasonable amount of time.

had someone do this to my stories, ugh

let's see how the new scoring system goes for my recent submission lol

Hello, it's looking good! Numbers are filling in and adding up. One thing ... comment count at top of story is right but still 0 down in stats when I had 2.

Profile updates have still to come. They were postponed while we made changes to the overall story experience.

Update: comments number at bottom are no longer 0, but double comments number at top. It looks like bottom stats counts my replies as a comment.

Hello, another update. Everything appears to be working as designed now. Thank you, developers 😊

That's pretty cool! chef's kiss

Thanks, Mods and Devs!

everything you like about the new system, btw, was my idea. everything you hate was Jen's. just wanted to make that clear.

All of you missed out on me blessing you w/ 1's.

I don't know if this is a corollary of the new story rating system but it appears that authors now have the option to delete comments thoughtfully provided by readers. 🤔

That came in with the move to Lush2.
