Get Braun twerked on

Reblog to Braun twerk your followers

[webnovelfiend]

I'm making a socmed au for Brown and Soleum because I think they deserve it but I got stuck right at the start-

Like, Brown is a talk show host so he has his own Twitter acc. And the only username that makes sense for him is his name and surname since that's the most professional option.

... But what the hell would his surname even be????? Would Brown even be his real first name or is that more like a stage name???? If that's the case what's his real name?????????? Help????????

Getting cash in KakaoPage for chapters

I'm sure this was already covered by someone out there but it's always nice to post stuff like this more than once.

I'll be using the daily challenges advertised by the app for that

(Step by step below)

1. Get the KakaoPage app

This doesn't work on desktops so phone it is. It's both on the Play Store and App Store so u can just install it straight from there. You'll need an account from this point forth so just screenshot the pages and use your favored image translation app until you reach the usual "email and password to sign up" part.

2. In the main page, go to the notifications tab

When u get in, you should see the usual bell icon that stands for the notification so click there. Side note, the main banner (the one w the blue-haired kid w wings) also has events that you can take advantage of!

3. Pick one of the challenges on the page

Take a screenshot of the options here, translate them, and pick one! I chose this one cuz it only asks to read 1 episode from smt so that's easy enough. Watch out for the time limit though.

4. Pick one you haven't read yet and click the first chapter

I'm pretty sure I've used all the other titles there for other challenges so I picked the one w the kid. Just click it and go for the first chapter, u don't even need to actually read it, just click to open it and you should be good to go.

If you choose another challenge then it might ask you to read 10 chapters instead so remember to screenshot the notification and the page it takes you to if it isn't the main one like in this case.

4. Go get your prize!

Return to the notification page and you should have the new alert with the gift icon. Click it and spin the wheel! The amount it lands on is how much cash you have in your Kakaopage account.

5. Go to your desired piece of media and get the episodes!

Now, with the cash you got go to the page for the piece of media you want to get chapters for (obvious pick here-) and click the "Recharge Ticket" button I circled. Then choose the first option, buy the amount you can with the cash you got and you're good to go! Just click a chapter, confirm the option and BOOM Korean raw chapter for you ✨

To translate the chapter ppl go about it in different ways. My phone lets me select stuff and just drag it to a different space without copying so I can put that directly in Google Translate, but you can always just take a screenshot on your computer or open it there and use your phone to take a photo to then translate.

I went about it this way but apparently, it doesn't work for everyone... Maybe it's smt that can be fixed with a VPN or creating a whole new account I'm not sure- a bit of a messy explanation but I can't do much without my computer rn 😔

Wiki: GSGW or GDCG

So, I think this is something that needs to be addressed, not only related to the wiki but also to the whole fandom.

I wanted to explain the thought process that we had when making this decision though, so that we're all on the same page. That information is below the cut, but the TLDR is:

Me and Sami (the admin for the original wiki) talked it through and decided that the wiki in Miraheze will be titled GDCG.

(explanation below cuz otherwise the post would be too long)

So, the situation is as follows for those who are a bit confused:

The source material, 괴담에 떨어져도 출근을 해야 하는구나, is a Korean novel that got an unofficial English translation. Now that the fandom has grown quite a bit, we noticed that we truly needed to create a wiki to serve the community with all the information that is required.

But we face a choice, giving it the title GSGW (the acronym used for the English translation) or using GDCG (the acronym for the Korean title). So instead of creating a poll that might simply be an echo of the chamber my account has become, we observed the pros and cons of each option and reached a logical conclusion. We hope you respect that.

Naming it GSGW/Ghost Story Gotta Work, the fan translation title

Pros: It's undeniably the most recognized name for the English side of the fandom since it's English and it comes from an English-dedicated source (the unoff tl). It's efficient and gives a straightforward idea of what the novel is about. Most of the readers of the unoff tl are incredibly used to the name.

Cons: Ethically, it's not the best option, since the unofficial translation is, at the end of the day, a non-legal product, and legitimizing it like that wouldn't be respectful to DS.Back. If the novel gets an official tl (or, more likely, WHEN), having Ghost Story Gotta Work as a title could get confusing if the official translated title is too different. Lastly, part of the circle of English-speaking raw readers is STRONGLY against the fan tl, and I'm not exaggerating- the last thing we want is to create friction between the two sides of the fandom.

Naming it GDCG/ Goedamchulgeun, the Korean Romanized title

Pros: Being the Romanized version of the Korean title, it's respectful towards the author and avoids any legal trouble. When an official translation is released, the titles won't clash and cause confusion since they'll both be accurate, one in English, the other in korean. Avoids creating an unpleasant situation with an important part of the community, especially since they are the ones more likely to contribute to the wiki, considering that reading the raws means they're ahead in the content.

Cons: Factually, most fans simply do not recognize the name. It simply isn't widely used by most of the English fandom. This means that, when most fans search for the fandom they'll search for GSGW which won't lead them anywhere. Besides that, it could potentially put off newcomers who feel intimidated by the fact that it's in Lorean.

Observing the two options, we reached what is somewhat a middle-term. The Miraheze wiki will be titled GDCG, avoiding legal risks and the rage of the raw readers. To help with discoverability, the unoff translated title will be stated in the first 100 words of the main page, since then it'll still be somewhat prioritized by search engines. A page with the unoff tl title will also be added, explaining what it is and as a redirect page towards the main page of the wiki, so even if the first 100 words aren't prioritized then, at least, this page will appear. The differences between certain names for characters, items and, ghost stories will also be mentioned in the dedicated pages and will also be redirect pages themselves.

This was our decision and we'll be going ahead with it when setting up the wiki. Thank you for reading so far and I hope you all respect the decision since it was made with the entire fanbase's best interest in mind, even if it feels like we prioritized raw-readers a bit...
