One. If I can reach _just one_ person, then my work is done.

> _Any_ replies are good enough for me. I tend to post OPs in MPSIMS, and they’re often meandering, barely coherent ramblings. I should be so lucky as to get very many replies. Heck, there’s one on the front page right now, sinking like concrete battleship. Most of the replies are from the same two people, and I’m one of those people. Plus **Kyth**. But that’s what usually happens - a handful of views, some replies, mostly my own, and then… plummet. However, they are often referred to down the road by people who say they enjoyed it, so I’m thinking that my style of writing isn’t very inviting of replies.

Apparently, we must work on our street cred some more. I’m reaching the folks ovah heah _points to pie chart_…but I’m just not quite getting these folks heah _points to smaller area on pie chart_.  
Okay, maybe I need to work on my street cred.

Funny, I was talking to Manny just this morning and that’s exactly what _he_ said.
