Crowd-controlled chastity
You choose the starting time.
Everyone else gets a vote.
Simply Locked lets you create a crowd-controlled chastity lock, share one link, and let other people influence your release.
They can vote to keep you locked longer or show mercy by moving your release earlier.
No account is required to start.
What is crowd-controlled chastity?
A normal timer answers one question:
When does this end?
A crowd lock gives that question to everyone with your voting link.
Instead of one keyholder controlling the release, multiple people get a smaller amount of influence.
One person might vote for mercy.
The next three might decide you are staying locked.
The final release emerges from the votes.
How crowd voting works
When your crowd lock starts, Simply Locked creates a voting link.
Visitors opening the link can choose:
Keep
Move the release later.
Show mercy
Move the release earlier.
The page shows what each choice will do before the visitor votes.
There is no need for every voter to become a keyholder or create a complicated shared session.
They open the link, make a decision, and see what happened.
How much does each vote change?
In Normal Crowd mode, the current voting rules are based on the duration you originally chose.
Keep
Keep adds about 2% of the original duration (up to 1 hour).
Show mercy
Show mercy removes about 8% (up to 4 hours).
That means mercy is deliberately stronger than Keep in Normal mode.
The crowd also cannot move your release indefinitely.
Votes can move release by at most about 33% of the original duration either way, with a minimum movement allowance of 2 hours on shorter locks.
The exact numbers are shown to participants before they vote.
What does that look like in practice?
Take a 24-hour lock.
Keep adds about 30 minutes.
Show mercy removes about 2 hours.
Across many votes, the release can move within roughly an 8-hour range on either side of the original release.
Longer locks scale the same way, until the per-vote caps kick in:
- 1 day: Keep about 30 minutes, mercy about 2 hours, bound about 8 hours either way.
- 31 days: Keep up to 1 hour, mercy up to 4 hours, bound about 10 days either way.
- About 3 months: Keep and mercy hit those same caps, with a bound of about 30 days either way.
The important part is that the wearer knows the boundaries, but not where inside those boundaries the crowd will leave them.
Three Keeps, one mercy
Imagine that same 24-hour lock again.
Three people vote Keep. That is about an hour and a half added.
One person shows mercy. That is about two hours removed.
Net result: the crowd moved you earlier, even though Keep won the headcount.
That is why Normal mode keeps voting interesting. Mercy is not a polite button. It is the counterweight.
Why is mercy stronger?
Normal Crowd mode is designed to be forgiving enough that voting remains interesting.
If Keep and Mercy were both tiny movements, many individual votes would barely matter.
If Keep were overwhelmingly stronger, a small number of voters could turn even casual crowd locks into much longer commitments.
Normal mode gives mercy enough strength to fight back.
Harder Crowd difficulty is available for locks that need a less forgiving version, with additional options planned for Simply Locked Plus.
How to create a crowd lock
- Choose your starting duration.
- Select I’m being locked.
- Choose Give control to the crowd.
- Complete the lock setup.
- Start the lock.
- Copy your crowd link.
- Put it somewhere people will actually see it.
The active lock keeps the sharing link available while the lock runs.
Where can I share the voting link?
Anywhere the community allows this kind of post.
For example:
- chastity forums
- Discord servers
- group chats
- friends
- an existing online audience
A post does not need a long explanation.
For example:
Or:
Or:
Can I leave a plea for voters?
Yes.
A short plea can sit on the Crowd Key page while the lock runs.
You can edit it later if the mood changes.
It will not stop a Keep vote. It only gives visitors something human to read before they choose.
Do voters need an account?
No.
Someone can open the crowd link and participate without creating a Simply Locked account first.
That matters because most people clicking a voting link did not arrive intending to sign up for another app.
They arrived because somebody asked them to make a decision.
The voting experience should get out of their way.
What makes Crowd different from a keyholder?
A keyholder is one person with direct authority.
Crowd mode distributes smaller decisions across many people.
Use an online chastity keyholder if there is one specific person you want in charge.
Use Crowd if part of the appeal is not knowing who will show up or how they will vote.
Can I start alone and give control to the crowd later?
Yes.
A self-lock can escalate into a crowd-controlled lock while it is running.
That creates a useful progression:
You start by choosing the time yourself.
Then, if keeping complete control starts to feel too easy, you can hand the outcome to everybody else.
Why not just run a poll?
A normal poll tells you what people wanted.
A Simply Locked crowd vote changes the actual lock.
The release moves as people participate, within the limits established for that lock.
That is the key difference.
The crowd is not commenting on what should happen later.
They are changing what happens now.
What happens if nobody votes?
The lock still has its original release time.
Crowd participation modifies the release. It does not require strangers to discover the link before the timer can function.
If you want participation itself to become part of the challenge, higher Crowd difficulty options are planned around stricter voter requirements.
Is Crowd free?
Normal Crowd mode is part of the free Simply Locked core.
Planned Simply Locked Plus features include additional Crowd difficulty levels for people who want stronger or less forgiving rules.
The basic crowd experience remains free.
How does the lock end?
When the final release is reached, the lock ends according to its current release time.
If you set a combination at the start, that is when it is shown on your private lock page.
The interesting part is comparing that final result with where you started.
Did the crowd save you?
Did they add hours?
Did one mercy vote rescue you from ten Keep votes?
The original duration is only the opening bid.
Can I use Crowd with an endless lock?
No.
Crowd needs a starting duration so Keep, mercy, and the movement bounds have something to scale from.
If you want a lock with no fixed end, use an online keyholder instead. Someone has to be able to decide.
