Favorite writers: My dA peeps.# About me
This account was created by SilverInkblot , with the help of copper9lives , for a literature experiment - I aim to test whether deviants can distinguish the writing styles of each other without a name attached to the piece. No deviation submitted here is mine.

When I get enough pieces; right now, I'm one more submission short.

Hey, just wanted to stop by and say that this game is a really neat idea. I've been way too busy to throw my hat into the ring, but I've enjoyed seeing how it's been playing out so far. I'll try and remember to point people towards it when I can.

Hi there. Can you fill me in on what this is all about? Looks fun!

The long version is over here: Rules Revamp! The short version is that authors send me pieces, and I upload them to this account, where players hunt through the provided list trying to match the piece with the writer. As the account name suggests, the game is all about discovering how distinct an authors style is, and if they can be identified without their name attached to the piece

This looks really fun! I was a bit confused at first, but I really like this idea

Just jump in and start guessing if you like

Also, I think it might be worth your while to say that the pieces are 'submitted by their author' rather than 'submitted by another deviant'. It gives the impression that these are snippets that might have been borrowed from others' galleries without their knowledge, and it's a bit confusing when you get tagged even if it's obviously not yours!

Good point. I'll be sure to rework the wording in the next round!

*guessing and analysis intensifies*

i say really up the experiment a notch and leave out the poems title until correctly identified. that way you can eliminate the variable of reverse searches

I don't see how that would change anything - the pieces submitted to the game are all new and aren't posted to dA until after the guessing game, so there's no way to reverse search for them.

ah, sorry , that information wasn't readily presented (though i did find a little blurb mentioning it after 5 or so minutes of looking around for it)
so i am to assume submission is not a pre-requisite of being listed? (since i've never submitted anything and was named a possible author on a piece)
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Not at all - in fact, it's the opposite. I can't accept a piece that's been submitted to dA cause that would defeat the whole purpose of the game

i was not asked permission and i would actually prefer to be left out of this. please take my name off the list. if my work appears in your gallery i will report it. thank you.
