    Yes and no. I'm still not a fan of the format for Cheer. On the other hand, taking some lessons from writing Want and Bimbocalypse quest, I've been thinking of a re-write of the idea. I was thinking of calling it Cheer Squad.

    While I'm sad, that Cheer might be an abandoned project. I'm interested in it's spiritual sequence.

    I'd tried training a neutral network (novel ai) on a combination of Cheer and Role reassignment, but the results have been lack luster.

    From my understanding, current neural net AIs need massive amounts of examples to work with before they stop producing nonsense. You might have better luck if you had a sample size of 5-10 million words, but with only 100k or less it probably won't ever produce anything good.

    The novelai been useful in producing coherent sentences, and somewhat remembering past context. But it's ability to keep a plot going, and avoid repeating itself over and over is a problem.

    About a 1/3 of Watch the Pretty Coin Lisa was written by the NN. While on the more complex Go! Fight! Win! The NN was only useful about 10% of the time, and mostly for fleshing out the background.
