Hey everyone,
This is the first story I've written, hopefully it won't be awful. I'm usually a lurker on these forums but I've had this idea for a story and I wanted to see how it goes.


Here, have a logo for the story:


David was a 22 year old man who was not stunningly handsome but he was at least attractive. David, like so many other men his age, was adventurous, had a high sex-drive and was not thrilled by the idea of commitment.

These traits had caused David to get into the casual sex scene. With the help of an app on his phone he could find other singles in his nearby area who were in a similar situation to him, and from then it was a simple matter to meet up and satisfy each other's needs.

This was a convenient way for David to get some relief, but after a few short months it was starting to get boring. It was perhaps for this reason that when he checked into the app one day he did not immediately close the unusual advertisement that popped up. Well, it may also have been the fact that the ad had his name on it. Literally.



Potentially getting paid to get laid sounded a bit too good to be true for David, but he was bored and the ad had piqued his curiosity and so he decided to check it out.

After downloading the app and putting in his code, David watched as the app quickly ran some tests on his device.



He was starting to get an idea that maybe this app was actually for real, and for the first time in at least a month he began to feel some excitement not just in his head but also between his legs.



That's the first part of the story for you, sorry it was a little bit of a boring start but I need to set the scene. I'm not sure when I'll post the next instalment, but I'll do my best not to abandon the story if people are interested.
Feedback is very much appreciated, especially if it's positive feedback

I know that some of you guys love puzzles, so I've prepared one for you. There are two answers, the first two people to each reply with ONE of the answers will become a VIP. What are the benefits of being a VIP, you ask? Well, if I get stuck and I'm not sure how to proceed, VIPs will have the first chance at making suggestions. It's a small reward, I know, but it's all I have to offer.

Anyway, the puzzle is this:
There are two more hidden codes, just like David's, in this post. Find them, reply with one of them before anyone else does, get VIP. Simple.

Hope you liked the first instalment, good luck with the puzzle. Enjoy!

I think it's an interesting concept. It would be interesting if this turned into a choose your own story type thing.

Couldn't find the hidden codes but I'll keep looking!

Interesting idea. I'll do my best to allow for that but I already have the story fairly well planned out so I'm not sure how flexible I can be.

Keep trying with the code, good luck! If you can't find it don't worry too much, there will be at least one more chance to get VIP.

The app changed to a new screen with text at the top and two buttons at the bottom, Accept and Reject. The text read:

> You must read the following terms and conditions carefully as they are legally binding and vital to your safety.

Ugh, do I really have to read these? thought David. He decided that given the little he already knew about the nature of the contest he probably should. He clicked Accept. The Accept and Reject buttons remained at the bottom of his screen, but the text changed.

> I verify that I am 21 years of age or older.

David pressed accept.

> I verify that I am free of any STIs (sexually transmitted infections).

Initially surprised at the forthrightness of the question, David quickly rationalised it with well it's a contest centred on casual sex, obviously they'll want the participants to be safe and pressed the Accept button.

> I give any involved parties the right to photograph or film me for the duration of the contest.

Ah, so that's the secret behind the competition. It must be for some porn site or something. David had never been filmed before and so this made him nervous, but curiosity about the contest got the better of him and so he clicked Accept.

> I agree to not cause permanent injury to any other contestants.

Probably just something to legally cover the organisers in-case someone gets hurt. Accept.

> I agree to not brandish any firearms or other lethal weaponry for the duration of the contest.

Wouldn't the organisers notice if someone brought a gun into the event? Again, David assumed it was just a legal safeguard and so he hit Accept.

> I understand that while I can leave the contest at any time, I must give 3 hours notice first.

Woah, how long is this contest going to go on for if it takes 3 hours just to quit!? David began to have second thoughts, but he could smell the reckless scent of adventure in the air and so against his better judgement he clicked Accept.

> I agree that I will not disclose details of the contest to anyone. This includes law-enforcement agencies.

It was only at this point that David realised that the contest may not be exactly legal. After a long moment of thought, David decided that he was already too far in to back out now and so hit Accept again.

> Finally, I recognise that all disputes relating to the contest will be resolved through private channels. I will not contact the police about anything another player does but will instead contact The ARGasm Team. I acknowledge that these conditions will be enforced by a private security team.

Without really thinking about the ramifications of this, David hit Accept one last time. The screen went black for a few seconds, allowing him to think about just what he might have gotten himself into. He did not have long to ponder this, however, as the screen flickered back into life.

Hope you enjoyed the second instalment, sorry again that it's a bit of a slow start but hopefully there's enough to tantalise you. Not sure when I'll post the next section, wasn't really expecting to have this section up so soon but I got bored. If, by the time I make the next post, nobody has found a code, I'll give out a clue.

I really like where this is going! Keep up the good work!

Come on, where's the rest of this!? You can't just leave it there.

I'm sorry to say that there will be no more story. My girlfriend said she isn't comfortable with me writing it, so that's that. At least the story didn't progress far enough that I had to stop writing it at an interesting part, hey?

EDIT: Is there any way for an admin to mark this story as abandoned or something?
