A few months into my findom journey, I started realizing the value in numbers. All of a sudden, numbers became sexy.
The addition of sends, the negative balances, the overdrafts, the transition of funds from one account to the other. All of it was proof. Proof of submission, proof of desperation, proof of usefulness.
I wanted my subs to know their numbers and see them increase. I also needed a way to praise my subs on their performance. If you already know me, you know that I am big on positive reinforcement. I’ve always found it to work well when trying to mold or teach someone something.
So I created my first tracker, which I titled “Tribute Totals.”
I had about 10 or so steady subs, and I was already starting to forget people’s names and their amounts sent, so I needed a single place where I could organize everything.
That worked for about the first six months, but I wanted a way for my subs to feel special and have a better sense of purpose. There’s something intriguing about seeing the progress of my first sender vs. a newer sender. I get to ask myself questions like, “Was my approach different in the beginning vs. now, and how may that have impacted the relationship?”
So I looked at my tracker and asked myself: what if each submissive was known as a number? What if they had an ID attached to them? Something they could call themselves that was just theirs and no one else’s. Something they could even use in public while keeping their identity hidden.
That’s how the idea of a Fag ID was born.
Starting quite simply, my first sub would be known as #1. And no, I didn’t get this idea from Stranger Things. I hadn’t even seen an episode of Stranger Things before I started my findom journey.
I experimented with this with my subs and assigned my existing subs numbers. To my surprise, they enjoyed it. I have to admit, I also got turned on by referring to subs as numbers.
That’s what they became: numbers.
No name needed, no handle to remember them by, just a number. All numbers, working to increase their own numbers, to add to my numbers.
It was all so numerical and, fuck, it turned me on.
#1 reaching a goal. #10 working on chastity. #3 relapsing.
All like cows in a barn.
They are cows.
Cashcows.
With the change to using numbers instead of social media handles, I created a V2 of Tribute Totals called “The Leaderboard.”
This tracker would be made public for viewing, so subs could track themselves against their own goals and see how much of their money I’d accumulated. Only I would have edit access to the new Leaderboard.
This worked great for over a year. Tracking my numbers, of all sorts. Referring to my subs as numbers was very arousing.
Up until a couple of weeks ago, I had no issues with the Leaderboard. Then I had my surge.
This surge was a turning point and resulted in me onboarding many new subs within two weeks, practically doubling the number of subs I had before the surge—but in two weeks as opposed to two years.
This came with a new set of issues.
I simply couldn’t remember who was who.
Thank goodness for private comments in Google Sheets, where only I can see a comment attached to a cell. That solved that issue.
Now I face a different problem: simply being timely and remembering to add the sends to each sub’s total as they come in. Sometimes multiple sends come in from multiple clients at the same time, and I miss something.
This is not something I want to make a habit of, but sometimes it just happens.
I need to figure out a better system.
I can’t rely on Throne since a lot of people send anonymously, and I can’t rely on people putting in their correct Fag ID since some subs send quickly and forget to use it.
I’m definitely open to ideas regarding tracking. Maybe a dedicated sub who wants to take on the job and has excellent secretary skills or is good with numbers?
You know how to find me if you have a good idea.
