And if the key is that Jade ticks all the boxes (public sex, teacher, married, bad consequences), then why do comparatively mild things like defending yourselves against jocks or partying at the Pink Rose ALSO manage to count?
Just partying does not count, but paying for services, lap dance, or sex(prostitution) does count. You can still party at the pink rose whilst staying at chick route.

Is there any hint that Sage knows about free tuition deal?
Free tuition not sure, prostitution no. Remember how Quinn asked them to hush when Sage walked into the pool? Was that about the tuition or the side-job?

Besides being his closest friend, Riona is probably the most active girl in the prostitution stuff. It's mentioned several times, she's well known for her "blowbjob skills". In Ep1, Quinn even said the prostitution activities were easier last year thanks to Riona. So I suppose, Quinn goes easy on her with drugs because she's a very valuable asset.

Furthermore Riona's consumption would probably not be such a problem if the alpha didn't stop buying pills and if Quinn wasn't so cocky with the new pledges and the free tuitions.
Employee of the year! Reward for employee of the year? Free medical benefits from the pharmacy!

For me, it was one of those wait what? moment Quinn said that Riona was going through a lot more but if money has been an issue for Quinn why would she allow that? she's letting the merchandise go for free with Riona. But going easy on her despite knowing she's got to make that money back at first I thought Quinn had a good business plan but it's not good if you let your employees have a free for all with all the stock without paying.
I am assuming here that she is running two business model. The restaurant with education benefits and the pharmacy. Like Riona said maybe Quinn tried to expand the restaurant too fast by recruiting too many girls and now the liabilities are more than the profits. I think it's not just Riona claiming her medical benefits too much (it's true or not is another matter), it's Quinn hoping to use her pharmacy's profits to temporary cover the restaurant's expansion until the girls are self-providing that's causing the imba in the balance sheets and backfiring now. Mixing the two businesses is big no no.

how to fight with big guy in episode 5 ???
Mini game or non-mini game? If mini game just follow the arrows, if non-mini game you have to search for the answers among the theories some 50 pages back.

Using my amazing google-fu I learned that in american colleges you pay in advance of each semester or pay the full year at once but either way, it's cash up front. That would create a cash-flow problem if several new pledges are coming in believeing free tuition is available without the knowledge that it is paid for in kind.
Wait, isn't that the same everywhere? Although I know in some places the education is free.

Quinn (and probably Riona) are dealing with drugs to fund their lifestyle (using drugs).
We don't know if Quinn was honest to Tommy or if she just used Riona as a scapegoat. We only know that she needs money. (She tried to get $ 2.500 from Rich in first try, so that might be roughly the amount she is short.)

I wonder how the "free tuition" story will continue.
Quinn's motto is :
qu "Loose lips, sink ships."
qu "But loose hips, get tips."
So she directly hints to Mona and Maya (in the pool scene) that free tuition is a secret and connected to Quinn's business (light prostitution).

Is there any hint that Sage knows about free tuition deal?
If Quinn is short on money, how can she (or the HOTs) pay all the tuitions for active sisters and new daughters which are due now for the coming year?
"Light prostitution". Tell that to Mona (or Ashley).

Many of these major choices aren't even all that bad either, so why not being nice to Steve or smoking weed should somehow tip the scale of the MC's personality when he's potentially been a generally good guy is a bit odd.
Purpose of choice with Steve is not just single action, but the way to shape MC what kind of person he is. Is he generous no matter who in front of him, even an asshole like Steve. Or he will try to be nice only to impress someone(fuck her).

I guess it will all come down on who the dealer is if Quinn can't pay perhaps she will use other methods the menu for example and send one of the girls to help her pay off the debt just an idea of course but then again if she is to get away with that then she could always use that excuse and withhold any money she has brought in.
I am out of likes, so (y)

I still don't get that I know Riona is a close friend and everything but why is Quinn letting her use up most of the drugs without paying for it?
Maybe because Riona is the daughter that brought in a lot of profits the previous year she gave her some special benefits, except she didn't expect her to use up MOST of the drugs?

That's what it's all about for Quinn the Hot's means everything to her and we know she will go to any length just to see it succeed I think that's her main driving force.
Well she's the VP, and the main candidate to be the prez after Sage leaves. Her own tuition might be riding on the HOT's success. Of course she wants it to work. I've been in that position before so I know (not fraternity related).

I think the first tasks were handjobs, blowjobs and an ass job through a glory hole. That Camily took it in was for her own pleasure. So they did only "prostitution light" compared to regulars with full vaginal or anal sex.

The exclusive special offers with Sarah or Riona (+Quinn) later were something different.

The only person that is qualified enough to be sent into the lion's den right now is Riona.

Does that mean Riona is overworked, because she has to serve Asian food, if you are implying that there are "normal" prostitution to her restaurant services? I cannot remember how the exclusive came by, but the Big Breakfast was a special promotion to entice their biggest customer (both in terms of size and usage?) to spend more in the future.

Now that I think about it, I am not so sure about her pimping out her girls so openly, especially in a party that Sage has a hand in organizing.

Well, no matter the circumstances it's no good for business if you are letting your friend have a free ride. Or has Quinn underestimated Riona's addiction to the drugs?

Her eyes are red a lot, just like Riona.
I think that's always been a thing? don't think I've ever seen them with clear eyes?

It would seem so. Speaking of drugs, how does the addiction work? Does it kick in after the first taste? Anyone knows?

There's a disparity here between the two different metrics when you have a vast majority of choices being made which directly affect the relationships with certain characters being outweighed by fewer choices that may not accurately the reflect the sum total of those minor choices. It's like if someone were to devote their entire lives to doing good in the world by helping the poor, raising money for charities, giving back to their community, etc, but because they once used an illegal drug in their teenage years that suddenly makes them a bad person and negates everything else they've done. Many of these major choices aren't even all that bad either, so why not being nice to Steve or smoking weed should somehow tip the scale of the MC's personality when he's potentially been a generally good guy is a bit odd.
That's why I said system (affi+status) will work better later on. And why you're talking about bad/good metric? That would be quite boring and not exactly correct interpretation of DIK/CHICK system. I'd say even in both polar cases he's somewhat party colege handsome boi but it's up to him how exactly roll, or should I say "roll with whom". That's why I'm not having problem with DIK-affi MC get rejected by M/J (good riddance) as well as with inability to make gated behind DIK-affi actions by CHICK/NEUTRAL MC (why would he?).

Also, while we're talking about affinity and even recognizing that RP system is basically insignificant don't forget about other game's variables i.e. the fact that some choices which are not related to any of these systems could also matter in the future. That's why affinity is more like a roleplay tool for me - not everything will be riding on it.

Hey guys I've reached the scene at the library with Josy and Maya but I'm only getting 2 options: ask for something more or friendship. Is there no option to tell them to stay away (at least Maya) or am I missing something?

No drug kicks in so hard on your first use that you are then a slave to it, that is a myth which needs to die. People have problems in their lives and look for escapes, drugs just happen to be a particularly effective one but you could also sink into alcoholism, sex-addiction, chronic workaholism, a self destructive work out regime or, in the extreme, becoming the 45th president :LOL:

In all of those cases, the solution is to remove the problem, not the addiction which is, in most cases, a symptom of the underlying issue. I'm drinking too much because I'm fuloughed and bored but I'm not an alcoholic because on the days when I have something to do I don't even think about alchohol, let alone consume any.

DPC's drug may work like that but if so then he's not as good a writer as I think he is.

You just described all the characters in the game, and some not in the game. :ROFLMAO: The game hasn't tell us much about John boy, Elena and Heather to know why they need to escape though, maybe just recreational use. Tommy on the other hand is just a true addict, using someone's money to buy drugs for his own use.

In DPC's defense, we can smoke weed the first time and reject Riona the second time so there, not an addict just like you said. Come to think of it, I tried smoking and drinking but they didn't stick, but gaming is another totally different monster all together :LOL:.

So all in all, we need to save Quinn, and cut her off from her supplier (Since we don't know who it is, let's give a codename: Vinny!)

But paying for services are separate decisions. You can choose to party hard and not buy any lap dances.

Also, consider the interaction with Lily in Chapter 5. Asking for a personal stripper or making out are minor DIK choices. But paying Lily for a blowjob has no effect on anything. Sure, she'll agree to give you the blowjob for free if you're CHICK enough, but you need to ask her for the freebie. If you just fork over the money, that's a neutral act for some reason. So in this case, paying for sex is *less* egregious than partying.

Confused yet?
