Old thread was dying! Very sad, folks.
Here's a new one, complete with plenty of fun links to various interactives (and my dumb commentary on them)
http://www.writing.com/main/interact/item_id/1856959-Buttercombe-Academy-for-Growing-GirlsAbsolute classic. You want girls going to a school and getting fat and stuff? IT'S LIKE MY JAPANESE ANIMES BUT WAY SEXIER WITH LOTS OF FLABBY BELLIES
http://www.writing.com/main/interact/item_id/1819934-Alice-the-Fat-Cheerleader/action/recent_chaptersHey, what's the first fatty story you ever read if you're an old fuck like me? PROBABLY ALICE THE CHEERLEADER BY THE EVER PRESENT MOLLYCODDLES
http://www.writing.com/main/interact/item_id/1708920-FGAL-Deleted-Scenes-Nikkis-SweatpantsFat Girls ARE Life, if this chan is anything to be believed! And FGAL, if you're reading this: I miss you <3
http://www.writing.com/main/interact/item_id/1910371-Your-Expanding-SisterI wrote in this one, one time. I'm not sure why because incest ain't my thing, but there's an entire thread devoted to it, so there ya go.
http://www.writing.com/main/interact/item_id/1213992-HesperHESPER! What if you and everyone you've ever known got so ridiculously fat that it was, in a word, ridiculous? Well, that's this. I'd say it's a 70/30 Male to Female split, but still worth a read.
http://www.writing.com/main/interact/item_id/1856570-Gluttony-and-Glory-Adventuress-WGI'm in the middle/final stretch of writing a fantasy-based, old school inspired fatty game. This interactive and it's various spawn are part of the reason why.
http://www.writing.com/main/interact/item_id/1946278-Dragons-Crown-Female-WGThe Barbarian from this game is fucking amazing. THAT IS ALL
http://www.writing.com/main/interact/item_id/1167851-Your-Fat-FamilyArguably the O.G. writing.com story that every fat aficionado has read at some point. Some of the storylines are straight up fat babies, which is… A thing. :I
http://www.writing.com/main/interact/item_id/1933610-Office-fattyIF YOU'VE EVER WORKED IN AN OFFICE YOU KNOW THE ONE LADY WHO LITERALLY EATS GARBAGE AND GAINS WEIGHT AND THEN WHINES ABOUT IT AND THIS IS WHAT THIS GAME IS OKAY
http://www.writing.com/main/interact/item_id/1943345-The-Jock-and-the-CheerleaderThis interactive has one of my favorite fat descriptions ever. CAN YOU FIND IT?
http://www.writing.com/main/interact/item_id/1833921-Tiffanys-World-An-SSBBW-TaleFGAL, seriously, come back please.
https://www.writing.com/main/interact/item_id/2041198-Super-Sized-the-Mel-Carlyle-StoryBasically a love-letter to FGAL's stories, and my current favorite thing to write in.
OK, I'm sure I forgot a bunch so feel free to post them <3

There's currently a line of stuff being made for a pregnant/fat interactive called Gluttons(a sequel of sorts to RenaGlutton), sadly, while it's a good deal of writing, it feels kinda shit with all the sumo shit involved.
I do not like Sumo, well, in my fetish stuff I mean, it's an alright sport to watch.
https://www.writing.com/main/interact/item_id/1939554-GluttonsSeriously, the Vanilla storyline, it deals with a pregnant woman who's a sumo, the WORST job for a pregnant woman…
32305 No.1422
>>1421Briefly checked this story out. Seems pretty "Anime" in it's writing, which is whatever.
Naming something "Gluttons" introduces fun ideas, having it immediately involve a series that most people had a weird Waifu crush on from 99-200X is risky, and having it exclusively include a 'Mon from that show, and then have it get into… Sumo Matches… I guess????????
I dunno, seems doomed for failure. But that's just my opinion.

32305 No.1483
>>1462Trust me, dude. "The Fattest Town" in it's own right has had many iterations in my scrapped story album. It's a fun idea, and one I'm playing with more and more in my "GAMES" that I have grown less and less interested in- Hell, I haven't touched my latest one in almost 3 weeks.
But yeah, "The Fattest Town" had a lot of potential that was killed by people of any sort of writing merit going "Well… I'd rather write in an interactive that actually has people ACTIVE in it."
I may have to write a story about that in the future, if my own self-loathing doesn't get in the way.
>>1476no, u.
>>1477All jokes aside about everyone sitting on a fig (You'll wish you didn't)
What do you want to see in this particular arch?
I (briefly) lived with two stoners, and I MEAN the title "stoner" in ever sense of the word. One ballooned and gained over thirty pounds in three months, and was absolutely flabbergasted at this fact.
This was because they ate Panera Bread at least twice a week because it was "healthy", despite getting a bowl of mac and cheese, an entire sandwich, chips, and a massive coffee drink to go with it.
Point being, Bobo has thrown out a healthy loaf of manna that should be happily munched upon.
I'm finishing up a chapter now, but I'm curious for input for the future <3
84bca No.1490
>>1483Stoners are fun! I've been meaning to acknowledge the fact that Mel and her friends partake in the Devil's Lettuce for a while now, I just finally buckled down and did it.
I don't INTEND on it being an all the time plot point, but I wouldn't be adverse to it being mentioned more often.
There are a couple of things I'd like to work into this arc specifically, like Mel teaming up with her friends to make Brooke fat or Donna slowly chubbing up in a way that's less "obvious" than how I tend to write stuff, but other than that, my slate's blank.
I'm with Jerkster! Any suggestions or things you guys might like to see?
8065d No.1492
>>1490Personally I'd like that little detail mentioned a bit more as well. Also quite like how the three (Donna and the others) all have somewhat differing views on being fat and whatnot. Would like to see more of that and the whole conflict.
I'd like to see other chapters fleshed out a bit more as well sometime if y'all don't mind. Sure, we got a bit of Mel and Hannah in Buttercombe, but I feel like there's much more freedom with this interactive since they're young adults and not stuck at the academy and surrounding areas.
Another arc I feel like needs a bit more is Rhonda and Sally (either them dating or already married/both aunts wise)

I'd kill for updates on the Hannah-as-Ashley-Knight's-TA storyline, as well as the storyline where Ronnie puts the screws on Alice and makes her massive.
6c0af No.1728
>>1723There's a slight problem there in that a) Dugtriet left and b) it's quite a convoluted story chain, involving about 4 teachers - most ways you look at it, at least as far as I can see, each storyline needs a Maria chapter or two before Hannah goes back to Ashley
That said, I'd definitely be up for adding a bit in future

Damn, the DC Comics interactive and most of Buttercombe (except for the cheerleaders line) is pretty dead.
e3685 No.1759
>>1723>>1757If you want the truth, the biggest reason for my drop off in Buttercombe is that as I'm getting older, it's harder and harder for me to write for girls who tend to gravitate around the age of 16. I created that interactive when I was 18 and fresh out of high school, so I can't help but feel a little out of sorts when I try to go back to that mindset.
THAT BEING SAID, I really want to get back into the swing of things. I'd love to get back to writing for Ronnie's Alice, and I've been gravitating towards Jen Walker lately.
At any rate, I'm always around! If you're up for a collaboration or just want to spitball ideas, you can always email me on my writing.com account!
6c0af No.1760
>>1759That's totally understandable.
That said, the TA storyline is quite good for that, though as with most Dougtriet storylines it's gone a somewhat perverse path… not that there's anything wrong with that.
There's also that Mia Underwood storyline iirc
79dfe No.1762
>>1759I'd love to see more added onto Mia Underwood's storyline. Just more different branching paths and maybe a conclusion or continuation on the weight war between her and Polluck.
Jen Walker could use a bit more branches as well. Personally would love seeing the one where she is promoted to Polluck's head chef added.
I feel like Adeline could use alot of fleshing out as well (pardon the pun!) She's barely gotten anything.

deb17 No.1927
I haven't cared much for most the SSS storylines since I feel it's just a quick easy way to remove conflict in the characters lives. At least this one's well written.
abba4 No.1928
>>1927it's way more interesting than just a quick way to remove conflict. It's a fun world building element, it also injects some interesting story elements into threads that didn't really have anywhere to go, and it allows the characters to get fatter without their life just becoming utter hell.
I really like those regulus chapters because they introduce a bunch of other buttercombe characters. Although I was a little dissapointed with how 3 of the 7 are trampltum's characters. I just don't care any more about cerys and arisa, there are so many other good buttercombe characters.
39a7e No.1929
>>1927The mary-sueness of the characters is what's starting to bug me. Arisa's the fattest and Zahara's the greatest cook ever suddenly. It's getting annoying.
6d30f No.1932
honestly theres just been so many chapters with people just talking and nothing else I've forgotten what's going on
say what you will about 'mary-sue'ness, but at least the recent SSS chapters are about fat characters getting fatter, instead of two thousand sequential chapters of build up with no payoff in sight

I'm just happy Ms. Polluck's getting more chapters. She's barely had any before and there was a huge gap in time where the older characters storylines just stopped all together. Older characters (both the teachers/staff and as in time of creation) could definitely use more stories or continuations. I'm getting sick of the new bland girls always getting chapters

Yeah, I've given up on Writing.com. I am not going to pay just to read shitty writing, and with all respect to my peers in this thread, who are all very talented, the majority of writing.com is shit and always was shit.
I know it's not so easy for the lot of you, who invested time and creative energy to these projects, but the writings on the wall. Eventually there won't be any free memberships at all, that's the logical conclusion to this.
If DA suddenly decided to charge us all, would we still stay? Hell no.
4863a No.2273
>>2270Yeah. At this point, it seems like interactives are paid-customers only.
It's timing me out for somewhere around twenty minutes every six chapters.
Considering the vast, vast majority of the writing on the site is, "How about X? Yes, or no?" or low-effort filler… there's just no way to actually read anything with the five or ten chapters you're allowed to look at in a session.
Even if the content currently on the site were worth $20 a year, locking everything behind a paywall means new or casual writers won't be adding anything.

It couldn't possibly be that hard to start our own, could it? A website just dedicated to interactive stories. If you make it very bare bones I would guess you could keep the costs down. You don't need any fancy features for something like this. The transformation website The Changing Mirror (formerly known as Forever Changing) has interactive stories, maybe it could be modeled on that.
Or maybe we could just use that, I dunno.
2e3bb No.2323
>>2321Maybe, but I think a site geared towards fat fetish interactive stories is in order.
6c0af No.2326
One problem with "start our own" is that Writing.com has a lot of "legacy" stuff - admittedly, much is crap, but stuff like Your Fat Family or Alice is huge, and in many places pretty good.
Speaking of YFF, I've had some chapters on an immensely slow back-burner, but I swear the story is barely ever updated - does anyone else have any interest in it any more?
I'd even take requests/ideas for storylines you'd like to see get some love if I thought other writers would add as well.
713c9 No.2327
>>2326That may be, but in cases like this you have to deal with the hand your given, and the hand we've been currently delt is the good stuff and our archives are behind a paywall.
Maybe some brave soul would sacrifice the money and time to archive the entirety of Your Fat Family, but that would be a waste of time, considering how much crap is also in an otherwise great Interactive.
No, we'd just have to restart the story. Rewrite it. And the thing about writing, the rewrite is always better than the first draft. We could create better chapters now, and not be bogged down by continuity either, we'd be start from scratch.
I don't have any technical website building know how, so I can't do it, but I think it's a valid idea and one worth pursuing once everyone else's resolve breaks and we collectively say fuck Writing.com
713c9 No.2328
Sorry to double post, but I want to make a further point that "legacy" doesn't matter because at any given moment stories like Alice or YFF could be deleted.
The fact of life on the internet is that content comes and goes, sites go under and in some cases a decades worth of content is wiped out just like that.

So, just a thought, but why dont we pool together the $20 for a yearly membership between us for one account? It would at least allow people to view the stuff, and if they wanted to add on their own, then they could get their own, as it is now.

Its come up recently in Buttercombe but it applies everywhere. It is y'all not ya'll. Y'all is a contraction of "you all," ya'll would mean "ya will? More importantly y'all is not used in functionally any singular cases. The exception is an informal way while speaking with a representative of an organization. Like asking a solo cashier "Do y'all have pickles?" Technically it is to a single person however the question is referencing the store as a collective entity as well. Outside of that, when y'all is used it means you AND at least another.
So when trampledude writes "“Well if ya’ll don’ believe me, let’s get ya to a mirror!” Ellie Rae replied, taking Xo…" there is a typo and at least one to infinite more fattened up girls being led to the mirror.
Thanks.

I'm an enormous fan of Hesper as written by Spaghetti Westerner and Adipose Rex, but it seems to have petered out.

https://www.writing.com/main/interact/item_id/2141026-Packing-on-Pounds-the-Piper-Black-Story/map/14513And I thought Pink Lightning couldn't get any more dreadful. Some of his chapters have been at best alright, and by that I mean alright as in "meh, I've read worse". But here is one of those that is just plain awful. Poor narration, generic dialogue with no real emotion, and trademark shoehorning romance with no proper build up all while clearly shifting the story to suit his vision of what good is, in which the bar must be pretty low on that. Read any chapter by Pink, and expect characters to start hooking up for no reason besides obvious degrading appeal. If you're gonna pair characters together, at least make the effort not to rush it. These things need actual development.
Who the hell is Max? Piper's pot dealer, apparently, and oh right Sam's girlfriend. So Max exists just so Piper can be the single one in the group. To say nothing that the chapter route said it's just Sam, Jay, and Madi. Shoving in one dimensional characters that exist only to establish characters in a relationship.
And yet that doesn't compare to the atrociously cobbled mess that is his route on Piper and Mel being roommates. Apparently, a bodacious blonde has to be Mel Carlyle, so there goes any potential fresh start with a new character. And surprise surprise, on his most recent chapter on that, they banged. There's no real writing appeal here. Just stereotypical badly written fanfiction.
Also that tap space with every new paragraph. Yeah we get it Pink, you fancy yourself a professional writer. The written work is still low quality, so I don't see the appeal.
2ce32 No.2456
>>2454Hey fun police, I liked them.
I've been down really lately, and Pink's a good friend who wanted to bump my chapters up. In fact, I asked if it'd be cool to do that Piper and Mel story. Who do you think wrote the chapter choices? They're two of my favorite characters, and Pink was being a good sport and cheering me up.
Point is, these are free chapters that people post. Don't be a douche.

Honestly, the reason that I'm stopping is that I haven't heard back from Molly. I've asked her a couple times about notes on the characters that I'm working with, as well as the direction that I'd like to take the story, and she just hasn't responded to any of my notes. So without any feedback on these characters, I'm kind've at a loss as to where to go.
I'll admit that it's a dumb reason. It's pretty disheartening if you want the truth! I really like what I've done here, but I respect Molly's authority and input on her characters.
TL;DR, I do what I want.

>>2555Quick couple questions, and I probably already know the answer to this but:
When do you ever really feel like adding onto your own interactives, either of your own volition or from the few write nights you post asking for suggestions? Seems once in a blue moon (though I understand getting burnt out on the same content and wanting something fresh)
And, have you ever thought of stockpiling the suggestions from those write nights so that you might have some stuff as backup when you want to write but don't know what about?
2ce32 No.2567
>>2557>Okay, this actually turned out WAY longer than I intended. Sorry!I'm not going to lie when I say that it's definitely me getting burnt out. But it's also a weird mix of my own crappy luck and my demanding job-college-girlfriend schedule. I just don't have the time to write like I used to!
I've been writing for Buttercombe Academy for more than six years now, and in the meantime I've also been doing stuff for Mel, Daven's Port, and various other stories. Since Writing.com's policies have changed, a lot of the people that I've worked with over the years have turned away from the site (though thankfully not their support!) and part of the fun is bouncing off of everyone.
I believe I said it earlier in this thread (or was that oldbbw-chan?) a few months back that I find it harder to write for teenaged characters these days. The restrictions in storytelling that I put on some of these stories are a bit hard to get around sometimes when I'm just not feeling it. Not so much Super-Sized, because I have a lot more freedom to do what I want, at the cost of a "constant" cast of characters to play around with.
H O W E V E R, I do my best to stay up to date with everything, and I'm actually working on something of a Capstone story about Buttercome Academy. I still try to write original stories about characters where there isn't quite so much lore like my Life of Haley series on DeviantArt.
So I guess the reason that I like writing for other stories lately is that I feel that I don't have to prop everything up. It's just sort've there and I can jump right in.
2ce32 No.2568
>>2557Sorry, forgot about the other half of that.
Anyway, I do store most of the suggestions on a word doc that I look at when I get dry. I look at it every time I sit down to write on something other than my serious work. A lot of it is stuff that I really want to get to, I'm just lacking motivation and/or creativity to do it.
But it's all there and saved!
