I am so curious still.

On Sycophant Hex chapter 58 now has three hundred two hits.

Ten more than two days ago. It is averaging five hits a day. Who is reading it? What is going on? Chapter 59 is only up to 101 hits. Who has linked something to Chapter 58?

My obsessive-compulsive mind wants to know.

I think I know the answer to that, because the same thing happens to me.

Each time I upload a chapter, it seems to be the chapter before that goes up more. I think it is because a good few readers go back a chapter to refresh themselves of the context, to make the new chapter work better.

It figures, if you think of it, because I go back to the previous chapter several times, when writing a latest one.

Ah! That could very well be it. What a smart idea.

I do the same thing, and never even thought of it. I'm so used to fictionalley, where whatever chapter you hit on first is the only one that registers the hit, so I go to the newest chapter and then back up and read the older ones usually.

It's up to 312 now, and it hasn't even been 24 hrs.
