If you want to go in blind, play the game now, read later!</p>\n <p>&nbsp;</p>\n <p><strong><em>~~&lt;[Blog Creation]&gt;~~ </em></strong><br />\n <strong>Money</strong>: Used to pay bills.<br />\n <strong>Time Speed</strong>: Time in the game matters. Every 24 hours you lose money and the time in-between posts influences how many views you&#8217;ll get.<br />\n <strong>Blog Name</strong>: Doesn&#8217;t matter what this is, just make it whatever you like (It&#8217;ll change the fake URLs in the game).</p>\n <p><strong><em>~~&lt;[Characters]&gt;~~ </em></strong><br />\n <strong>Webmaster</strong>: He owns the server your blog runs on. You pay him money and he helps you with your website.<br />\n <strong>Hackers</strong>: They&#8217;ll try to hack your website to steal your Fans, Subscribers, and Money! The more Fans you have, the more likely you are to be threatened.<br />\n <strong>Fans</strong>: Fans have a 60% chance to view your posts.<br />\n <strong>Subscribers</strong>: Subscribers have a 90% chance to view your posts. They also pay you every time you post!</p>\n <p><strong><em>~~&lt;[Posting]&gt;~~ </em></strong><br />\n <strong>Buzzwords</strong>: Attract new users to your blog. Fans won&#8217;t like a ton of Buzzwords, though.<br />\n <strong>Length</strong>: The longer the post, the more likely Fans will want to stay Fans. Short posts will make Fans leave.<br />\n <strong>Quality</strong>: High Quality posts will make random visitors more likely to become Fans and Fans more likely to become Subscribers.<br />\n <strong>Time</strong>: If you don&#8217;t wait and just constantly make new posts, they won&#8217;t get many views and will most likely scare away Fans and Subscribers! The least amount of time you can wait for the maximum output is 2 in-game hours.<br />\n <strong>Views</strong>: You get money for every View. You can see a graph on the top right of the past 20 posts and how their view count compare to each other<br />\n <strong>Posts</strong>: You can go back and read through all of your posts whenever you like.</p>\n <p><strong><em>~~&lt;[Skills]&gt;~~ </em></strong><br />\n <strong>Level/XP</strong>: You gain XP for every post you make. If you Level up, you gain a Skill Point.<br />\n <strong>Skill Points</strong>: It costs the current Level of any Skill in Skill Points<br />\n <strong>Advertising</strong>: You earn money off of advertising on your blog. The higher this is, the more money you make per View.<br />\n <strong>Posting Ability</strong>: This augments your Views as well as the chance you will gain more Fans and Subscribers. It also has a nice aesthetic affect that changes the font of new posts as well as allows pictures to appear for posts.<br />\n <strong>Bandwidth</strong>: This limits the number of views you can get per post. By raising this, you&#8217;ll raise the number of possible views you can get for every post.<br />\n <strong>Security</strong>: Lowers the chance of being threatened by Hackers as well as lowering the chance that Hackers will be successful.​</p>", "time": "August 23rd, 2015 9:29 pm", "title": "Finished Just in Time!"}
