Doesn't everyone?

(Anonymous) 2011-12-24 01:15 am (UTC)(link)
I think everyone does that. Hell, people have admitted to replying to their own secrets and comments here at FS to get more interest.

(Anonymous) 2011-12-24 01:29 am (UTC)(link)
Yep, I totally do that. Am I replying to myself right now? You'll never knooow~

I had a feeling some of these anons were all the same person.

If it works, why not?

[identity profile] tasogare-n-hime.livejournal.com 2011-12-24 01:34 am (UTC)(link)
I've thought about doing that, but I'm way too paranoid someone will catch me...

[identity profile] cloud-riven.livejournal.com 2011-12-24 01:47 am (UTC)(link)
That's just sad.

But at the same time I can't stop imagining some random fellow donning cheap beards, extravagant hats, and maybe a frilly dress at different intervals to excitedly point out how great this "stranger"'s prompt is.

Ahahaha, this image is adorable.

I thought that was SOP.

(Anonymous) 2011-12-24 01:53 am (UTC)(link)
lol no shame. I do it too & it has worked

(Anonymous) 2011-12-24 03:55 am (UTC)(link)
I remember a very similar secret being posted a while back, so at least you're not alone. I do it too, and I noticed that after posting several comments (spaced apart by a decent amount of time), other people began to comment on the prompt too and the prompts I've done it with have gotten filled. I can't say for sure there's an actual correlation or if it's just coincidence, but it can't hurt I guess. Maybe when a potential filler sees a lot of comments seconding a prompt, they feel more confident that it will get a lot of readers and feedback if they post a story.

(Anonymous) 2011-12-24 04:54 am (UTC)(link)
I think your last sentence is right on the money. Also, a lot of people track memes, so several people seconding the same prompt means that prompt winds up in their inbox more than once. Maybe the first time they see it, they get an inkling of an idea, but forget about it later. Then another "second" means the idea creeps back a bit more forcefully. And then every time another "second" arrives, they're writing a little more in their head, until they actually open a Word doc to get the damn thing out of their brain! (Speaking from experience.)

I've done it.
