Testing if true

I never said I was stopping. I’ll keep doing the updates, but currently I am at the gym. Thank you.

Imagine

>>19570927
Anyone can have a say, at least when only one person modifies it shit stays in some control. Imagine five different versions circulating here.

>>19570852
I am here, I exist. I’ve been doing work as I have a 9 to 5 job and I had to get shit done afterwards and soon I’ll got to gym. I’ll update the chart later.

Excellent bait.
Every mention of Terry Goodkind is just a meme to bait and troll. I suggest you don't answer these posts

>>19569600
I am starting to like this Terry Goodking meme. Someone might ACTUALLY try to read his books and waste his precious time. Other than that, I think chinkshitter hates every book that isn't MTL web-novel.

Reminder that these replies exist in the previous thread.

You've made your point already.

>>19569259
I go by the recommendations, I have not read China Mieville. As I have have said, it is an iterative process. There is no reason to get angry, or false flag.

>>19569260
Also no need to samefag, please see the list in >>19568857

I am not sure what kind of VPN campaign Moogy has just launched. How about of instead of resorting to ad hoc you give some change recommendations.

>>19569271
Dont look at OP, see >>19568857

>>19568943
I made up the class descriptions 15 minutes after waking up, if you wanna modify them, please give feedback. Otherwise, we might just move Silmarillion to 3.

Bros... We were wrong.

>>19568867
Excellent bait.

Go back to sleep, Moogy.

Alright, another round of update. I will keep to the 5x5 chart size and will have at maximum six books per slot. As you can see, there are some slots that are already full. If you want to suggest a book or a book series, and the slot that you want to put it is full, you'll have to either recommend moving something from that slot to somewhere else or otherwise explain why your book is more relevant to take over some other.

Some (directional) explanations on the classifications:

D
>Low literary merit
>Unoriginal
>Uninteresting

C
>If you like fantasy or sci-fi you'll probably like reading these
>Solid books, nothing out of this world
>Original works

B
>This is why people read speculative fiction
>Books that almost everybody can agree are good

A
>Trend-setters, Trailblazers
>Better than B tier but not worthy of S tier

S
>Books that change the way to look at the world
>Everybody can agree these books are amazing works of fiction

1
>Easy to get into
>No previous reading required
>Middle-schoolers can easily understand

2
>Probably should not be your first choice to read if you are a novice but its doable
>Will increase in complexity in story, characters, or setting compared to 1
>Some thinking is required on the reader's part

3
>Complex prose or books or a long series
>Complex setting
>One may need to look at dictionary

4
>Challenging works to read at times
>Dictionary may be a friend for ESLs here
>Many things shown in the books is not explained and will be up to reader's interpretation

5
>Most times require intensive reading and rereading to understand
>Checking online wikis almost a necessity
>Have your dictionary at hand

TL;DR
>Help me make the chart better
>You may also want to give a better description of the classifications

>>19568681
I do indeed. The lower D series is looking quite empty still.

>>19567069
>>19567968
So the threads were better before? For the love of God Almighty we wouldn’t want people to discuss various books instead of shitposting and false flagging. It’s almost like this good discussion is trumping all chances of chinkshitters to do their squatting.

I am actually a Europoor so I'm going to bed now, expect no updates for at least 10 hours.

>>19564866
managed to write 975 words today, feels good

>>19566198
Sorry you suggestions didn't make this round yet, but I'll try to take them into account.

>>19566168
Any opinions of The Silmarillion?

>>19566198
>>19566193

I'll just carry on the post from the previous thread here so it can gather replies here as well

>>19566048
Goodreads seems to think Water Margin is not fantasy.

>>19566127
Excellent take.

>>19566017
I guess I'll just juggle between the two slots until someone tires of it :)

>>19566044
He is blind.

>>19566048
Maybe. I've even considered having Three Body Problem. As long as its not degenerate anime/wuxia you know what I mean.

>>19565890
Another round of edits. I am always open for moving or adding. If there is some clash of opinions, some additional info on opinions is appreciated.
