Erfworld Thread X: A Series of Unfortunate Cliffhangers

[Welf]

Splitting book at pg 141, reminds me of a YouTube WH40k video where the Emperor of mankind says - we'll split the book into two parts, for double the profit.

Yep, feels right.
Death to GamesWorkshop! Also money!

And I'm not reading Girl Genius. I guess it might be ok if it's one of those 2 book 1 book, like GoT or Harry Potter (IIRC).

So the defense is, everyone is awful at it, so it's ok?
My points was things in Erfworld story structures/overall experience have degraded.

I agree with that. Page 141 could work as end for a book. I don't like it if books end on a cliffhanger, since it doesn't resolve something. But page 142 doesn't work as first page. Maybe a few extra pages are added in the book version to make it feel more natural or at least less artificial.
