Okies, I figure I should probably start doing this. It's quite obvious that the prostitution scenes in Nimin lack a bit of finesse, judging by the amount of typos and grammar issues people have reported. However, it's too much work for myself (I have difficulty reading other people's works when I'm trying to get into the creative mood), so I'm looking for some help.

Basically, I need 1-2 editors to proofread and edit the prostitution scenes people submit to me. I'll still read through the scenes to see which ones I'd be putting in, and then I'll send them over to the editors to fix up before I put it in the code (I've still got a couple scenes in my inbox I've hardly looked at, since I've been meaning to get editors first). I'd also like to have the editors go through the scenes that are already in the game and spruce them up a bit, although they're all coded and you'll have to look "past the code".

A few people have offered up their services, so to be fair I'll give as many people a chance as I can. Though I don't wanna sift through hundreds of people either XD Post here and give me a sample of something you've written/edited via a link. I'll check it over real quick and if it looks good I'll put you into consideration. If there's still a lot of worthwhile editors, then I'll send out scenes that have already been inputted into the game to see how you'll fix them up. Hopefully after all that I'll have about 2 editors that I'd like to keep around.

Don't take offense if you're not chosen. In some cases I might choose somebody because I know them better and thus feel more apt to rely on them more. I don't know, it depends on how this turns out. For those that do become editors, you won't really get anything except for credit on the opening screen and maybe a special journal, similar to what the people who originally wrote the scenes get. If you want more, I possibly can, within reason, though don't expect much, considering I don't get much myself XD

In other news, when I woke up today, it took forever for my laptop to load up, as well as every subsequent restart thereafter. A few days ago I had a problem where one of the startup files got borked because the sector on the hard-drive went bad. I spent most of the day fixing it just to get it to start up again and scanning it thoroughly. I also seemed to have obtained a Firefox search hijacking thing, though after 3 different malware scanners and configuration file adjusting, nothing has come up as the culprit, and I don't go anywhere to obtain such a thing with my laptop. Upon trying to do another full system scan today, the hard-drive went kaput and the computer froze. The hard-drive also makes horrible sounds as it takes forever to find something, and really scared me when it made the same sound as well as a horrible error beep as I was running a checkdisk.

To put it short - after 7 years of having this laptop, it seems the hard-drive is failing. I can't seem to find any other reason for it's recent decent into death.

This... is really disheartening. I've been a bit prepared for this, as I've only been using my laptop for light web-browsing, a messenger program, and dvds (since the dvd rom is fine). However, I also do most of my writing on my laptop. I can be far more productive when I'm comfortably sitting on my bed typing away than sitting at my desktop doing it. It's how I coded more than 4/5 of Nimin. With it dying, I don't think I can code with it anymore (I'm not sure if it'll even survive another week...), which will put a huge dampener on any progress. I also cannot afford a new laptop, even something small just to perform the same capabilities, since I have pretty much no income still.

So... expect a slowdown on Nimin (even slower than usual XD), unless something finally goes right, which I doubt will happen.
