Any idea about this book?
This is one I haven't yet found a match for anything on literotica, et al.
Good one! Thanks for the share.This is one I haven't yet found a match for anything on literotica, et al.
Sounds terrificThis is one I haven't yet found a match for anything on literotica, et al.
I don't get why they're longer. I guess this "author" is creating their alternate endings and continuations? Like FinishTheDamnStory used to do on literotica?Two new ones.
Powered Surrendered is from NauticalTwilight's "The Rule".
His is 88K words, Duffy's 133K words.
By the Lakes is kenkx's "A Trip to the Lake"
His is 11K words, Duffy's 30K words. So again substantially longer works.

It would appear to be stolen from kenkx's A Crack in the Fence.
How do you find out where the story has been copied from? What did you search for? Since the book’s title is different, how did you figure it out?It would appear to be stolen from kenkx's A Crack in the Fence.
I don't have Duffy's book to compare word count, however, Amazon states it's 63 pages long.
I did a quick comparison for two of Duffy's other books that I have copies of and compared the page count from what I got when I opened the epub in SumatraPDF.
The page count in SumatraPDF was about 68% of what Amazon cites.
I downloaded Kenks's version with FanFicFare and that comes out at 33 pages in SumatraPDF, so using the 68% rule, that would give an expected 48 pages to be listed on Amazon.
Amazon lists Duffy's at 63 pages, so this wouldn't seem to be all that much longer than kenkx's version.
For comparison, Duffy's The Hotwife is 184 pages in SumatraPDF and jawanaut's Mary and her Lovers comes in at 90. We know the word count for both works and Duffy's is over twice as much, so the page count in SumatraPDF does seem to track with word count.
How do you find out where the story has been copied from? What did you search for? Since the book’s title is different, how did you figure it out?
If i were to do it.... as a programmer i would probably take all the paragraphs of every book and put them in a single source (and reference what book/file it came from). I'd probably all upper/lower case and strip html (and probably remove non-letters).. Then md5 hash all paragraphs separately. I'd Remove any that are too short (say less than 30 bytes),
Matches should then be manually checked, but if a whole paragraph matched there's odds other paragraphs matched (though replaced names may result in different hashes, so it would be paragraphs where no names are present).
I used the technique KidneyCracker describes. It sometimes takes multiple tries to get a hit, especially now that Duffy has done substantial editing of the stolen work.How do you find out where the story has been copied from?

If the work is substantially edited, which Duffy now typically does, then you won't get many matching paragraphs, if any.If i were to do it.... as a programmer i would probably take all the paragraphs of every book and put them in a single source (and reference what book/file it came from).

at least they're working a little bit for their stolen money. hahaIf the work is substantially edited, which Duffy now typically does, then you won't get many matching paragraphs, if any.

I know this is discussed in some detail in another thread, but I don't recall where.how do you find which stories they plagiarised from?Do you have specific search parameters?
