I know that universities in the USA (where the game is set) start in August and the term exams are in December, so the ingame timeline is correct.

Although in the UK and Europe in general, the semester starts in September and ends in December.
Yea, the in-game timeline is correct. I'm saying the guy who thought 6 months had passed in-game since he talked to Bella about Zoey might not realize that because he might be thinking that the terms start in different months. For example in a few Asian countries, their school years start in the Spring rather than in the Fall/Autumn. So if you think about it that way, he could essentially be confusing the start times and it makes sense how he arrived at "6 months". What I was saying is that may be a reason why he arrived at the weird timeline because I can't think of why else he'd think 6 months had passed in-game.
As a side note: Yea that's actually pretty similar to US schools that do quarters rather than semesters. They usually start in September and have two quarters, then end in December. I'm guessing BADIK is set in a school with a quarter-system because they have courses that end before the end of October (Jade's class).
Also, my bad if my first comment you replied to was confusing. I worded that kind of weird. The "he" I was referring to was the one who thought 6 months had passed in-game and I was trying to work out "aloud" how he reached that conclusion and where he might have gone wrong.

Hear! hear! Quinn is an awful human. No sane person should touch her without a stick! Shes one of the most interesting characters though because we have yet to find a deeper motivation for her actions. Money yeah but money is just a means to an end. Seems unlikely at this point but IF she ends up being just a common druggie pimp ill be fairly disappointed with DPC.

You got me wondering how many people actually fell for that broccoli shit as if its romance, its cute but cute doesnt make up for the shit shes done and continues doing. The MC is dumb as bricks and SHOULD know better. The veggies (her past) made her more interesting, a more human abuser than the run of the mill queen bitch we had before, nothing more.

That's why you should read carefully. Sarah says "anyway." That's why it doesn't just refer to Chad.
She doesn't say "anyway". I've checked the exact quote before posting. If you're going to give advice, maybe start with following it yourself?

edit: What she says, verbatim:

We deny it.
If she thinks that we're sluts and she ends up hating us...
Fine! I can live with that. It's just for less than a year; then, she'll be gone.
This is strictly a conditional referring to situation with Chad discussed in this very scene.

9 months to almost a year there is no big difference either. although now that I see my comment I meant trimester not semester o_O
Alright now I'm confused so I'm just going to ask directly. What month do you think the school year starts? (In the game that is, which is based in the US)

ok, so, a lot of comment after I posted about not being able to get the Jill path.
Yes I have (or now had) DIK status when some major stuff came up so that's where I lost her, I did go on the picnic.
Trouble for me with all this is that the title is 'Being a DIK' so I assumed that being that was the target of the game, seems to me the game should really be called 'Being a CHIK' as that seems to be the status that gets you more of the content (or at least the content I wanted to see).
I've downloaded the gallery 'opener' and am stunned at how much I've actually missed out on by trying to get content and walk that line of not going too far, but there are SO MANY places where you add to your DIK stats and once on that path I just found it difficult to get back to the other side. I guess in a lot of cases I went with how I personally would play it, but then in real life I'd have wanted Sage (after learning that Josy&Maya were a couple) so I guess I got what I wanted. I have no intention of re-running the whole thing or trying to work out where to go from to just get certain content or routes...If Sage is NOT possible through the rest of the game then I will just give it up and accept that that's life.

I've now got the 'Interlude' and I must admit am a little confused...so the whole thing is just about Zoey and you are playing her!? Not sure what status I'm supposed to aim for though or where choices are going to lead me...I see the +/- notation in the WT (mejoress one) but I'm not sure how that affects this part of the game or how it would affect PT3 when it comes out.

in the Interlude, do the +/- d cause any difference in the story or issues with EP3 when it comes out.....I still can't see a WT for specifically the Interlude apart from one I'd need to pay for on Patreon or buy a coffee (which I can't do as I'm unemployed)

Remains to be confirmed if it will influence anything S3 onward, but to me, DPC didn't do that for nothing, he has a reason for Zoey to have a DIK/Chick affinity gauge, I suppose if you played Zoey the total opposite of the MC, they could see they drifted too much apart, but if you played the same way, they'd have way more affinity.

Something like that, but that's just speculation on my part, still, again, there's no way DPC did that for absolutely no reason, he has a plan with that.

It depends if you are a repeater and the school is the school and the university is the university, that is what the SAT is for and many people lose a month preparing for those exams because I don't know that you are a repeater
And it usually starts in August and ends in May, in short, seven months and some other universities are up to eight months ,But not all universities are the same ...There are those who measure studies in semesters, other quarterly periods and others in trimesters.
Not to mention that there are people who start their studies in July with the summer session.
If the game is based in Pennsylvania the start day is July 2nd for the summer session. But normally it starts on the tenth of August. :cautious::devilish:

This Being A Dik game discussion page goes a mile a minute so I don't see the harm in asking for some help with this one game's name.

Mild femdom if that's the right word. MC goes to a party and likes this one woman. She makes him cum with her foot if I remember right..Anyway he agrees to be her little pet haha. She phones him up in the middle of the night to perform this task..Meet a girl in a park tomorrow. Sure why not. :) That happens and he performs his duty...goes to college and guess what..his professor is the mistress and is she ever perdy dressed up in her school clothes. WOW!! What's it called? It's about six months old with one update. I had two teachers in school that I was head over heels in love with. Mrs. Soberg and Miss Ellis A Swede and an Auzie :eek:

yeah, I guess my worry is that in the story line for pt3 you need some sort of affinity...I ended up neutral somehow (due the the permanent penalties I believe).....so I guess I may run through the interlude fully one way or the other and then do one that end in the middle. No idea how that affects the Interlude gameplay, but without knowing what the point of the Interlude is it's the only way to play it.

Don't worry too much about it, there's only one decision that really sets Zoey's affinity, not going to spoil anything but once you've played through the interlude once you can take other saves through to ep 9 with just a single decision.
