That 6.75 might've been mine
Yeah it was!
maybe can get something with space saving perks (but honestly I feel like they are a trap)
I get what you mean, but honestly I think differently. Sure, space saving perks can be counterintuitive because sometimes you need the cups or garbage cans anyway, but I don't think you're able to get the maximum multiplier for the first 2 parties without at least the beer cup perk. Not only do space saving perks allow you to not use extra cups/cans if you don't need to/want to, but they also give you more flexibility to put the cups/cans in random places if you do need to place them in order to fulfill someone's needs. So now if you need 5 cups, you're not locked into placing those cups next to beers; if you have an extra space in a random corner, you can just put the cup there! This can be helpful in certain situations beyond just avoiding taking up spaces.

I assume your strategy is to go for the 50 happiness bonus multiplier perk as early as possible? My feeling was that, especially on the early parties, this wouldn't be able to compensate for the higher multiplier you can get using the cups perk, however I don't think I've ever tested so I'm not sure. If you could get 7 DIKs to 50+ happiness by the end of Episode 9 that would be equal to .7 extra multiplier which is equivalent to 3 fulfilled needs. So theoretically you could miss out on 3 needs and still end up with a very similar multiplier. But can you get 7 DIKs up to 50% happiness while missing 3 needs? I don't know. Regardless, I still think other than that perk, the cups and trash cans perks are worth it.
What's your pp total?
I used cheats on my full playthrough so I can get the activities I want without having to worry about money, so my totals might not be an accurate comparison, and for some reason I picked Easy to Please instead of Multiplier Madness for the last perk, which I would probably switch looking back on it. But I had 122,705 on the Halloween Party (7.75x multiplier), 115,855 on the Thanksgiving Party (7.25x multiplier), and 97,233 on the Christmas Party (6.5x) for a total of 335,793. I may try a playthrough where I use the Multiplier Madness perk from the beginning to compare totals.

Yeah bad phrasing by me, didnt know how to call it... so i went with rumor, but its more like a vague outlook we can speculate about. And speculating about things is called rumor so i went with that... *shrugs*

Thanks for looking that post up, i wasnt in the mood to look for myself, cant even really say when and where he said that.
Ahhh I get you, yeah not exactly confirmation of anything, so don't know what to call it myself. Still speculating on things DPC is more accurate on some of the things fans said.

Still he said that in last year's Q&A, it's why I think the question to ask this year is about episode count, if it's still 14-16, I'd say he's being intentionally vague, possibly so when the ending comes it's somewhat of a surprise. I mean to me the I definately need 14 is telling, so what are the other two for? Filler? He says in the same Q&A he knows the endings so he must know how many he needs. I think at the time 14 was the proper estimate and the 16 was just incase he thought of something else to stretch it out.

But it's as I said, 14 and 16 are very different numbers, it's either 3 episodes left or 5 and with the kicker being "the last season being different" the smaller number could be 1 proper episode and 2 epilogues, which is fuck all on the face of things.

I got Jill's on my full on cheat route. However that was still in 11.0, so it might be that it shouldn't have unlocked for me.
I'm not sure on the requirements to be fair I always thought it was a gimme. But clearly not if it's not unlocked here. Someone said before it's cheat point dependant.

There are not many variables for her atm. I had a search very few. Nothing at all that point to any sort of relationship

Nothing really other than the fact a scene of her is locked if you spend time kissing girls in front of her. Make of that what you will.

In the report card? If so it's just like a default image if you aren't on one of the coded report card paths (in order, Zoey > MG > Quinn > Lily > Jade > Nicole, then if none of those apply, you get the lab render with "Cinderella".)

I was doing a new playthrough and now whenever I get to planning the BBQ party it crashes. I'm not using any mods. I have reloaded old saves to get to the same point (DIK/Neutral/CHICK runs all different choices) and it all happens when it's supposed to show the transition image.

I have updated Renpy, and I've downloaded both the PC and Mac versions of the current BeingADIK and get the same result (partitioned computer).Am I the only one with this bug?

Need to be a Patron for his discord, so I can't ask there.
Do you get an error/exception message? (screenshot please)

Do you have any .txt files generated in the base directory (the folder where the .exe is)?
traceback.txt
errors.txt
log.txt
...
*.txt
(Attach them please)

I just tried a couple things and looked into the code. As far as I can find it seems it should unlock every time if you're on any Jill's route and rejected Zoey. Gift list, cheat points or affinity doesn't matter.
