VN Ren'Py Being a DIK [v0.11.1] [DrPinkCake]

[buggs]

At the start of each Episode (and I mean the very start before even the story recap), a random value between 0-4 is picked for the variable "pp_seed". That determines which Party Planner grid layout you get that Episode.

You can manually change it with URM or something though right up until the planner launches, which is what I've done for testing/guide purposes.

Regarding the Xmas layouts, for the most part I couldn't get past 6.5x or 6.75x either, except on one specific layout where I managed a 7.25x and one other where with Jello Shots I managed a 7.0x. Check the link in my post here if you're interested.

Damn you really know it all. GG

i mean if everyone was attracted to the same things everything would be incredibly boring......plastic surgeons would be making bank tho as they make everyone look the same....

Some of us actually like tall, blond, Scandinavian scientific/artistic, kinky Goddesses that can bench 250 and are the mature, healthy equivalent of Bella.

Yeah the number of beers seems a bit wonky. I often see it going down with 2 instead of 1 in just 1 throw.

In Beer Pong, bounce shots remove 2 cups instead of 1 if it goes in, but the defending team can try to swat it after the bounce.

Nerds are icing Sally out though, so perfect for MC to use her for revenge on the nerds

This is going to be peak entertainment if it plays out like this

 

[Hahn1900]

Just to contribute to the #17000 message thread: if you pursue Jill you get to tell her that Matt is cheating on Bianca, but if you're on Bella's route instead you never have the chance to do that even if you're also aware of it. This feels weird because you're still supposed to be friends with Jill and that should include caring about her friends and family too.

Its not weird at all, cause the MC doesnt meet Olivia and Matt, so he doesnt know who they are if you encounter them at Halloween. He only meet them at the sushi dinner with Jill, which only happens on her path.

If you are not on Jills path, Matt and Olivia are totally strangers to the MC, how could he assume that Matt is cheating on Bianca like that without knowing who he is and how he looks?

Little did they know the library was the worst place to have a private chat, I know signs lead to Micha leaving her gum somewhere at the dorm party ending up in MC's hair but wouldn't surprise me if Magnar's goons did it when MC and Derek were out of it

At least Ron got a Taste of things that might fall upon the rest of them

Dude that was a low burn for what they have done, look at what they did with Cathy. And this can get even worse

Oh yeah no doubt they've got a reckoning coming, imagine pissing off not 1 but 2 guys who could beat the shit out of their entire frat single handed

Gum is just drunken awkwardness, Magnar's and his minions does'nt seen to operate on childish pranks level.

I honestly hope we get to see more of Mona, Damn i miss that girl

Doesn't sound right to me lol you made me double check and each party is definitely in the 100,000 points range and they're all S tier parties.

Not sure which party you're talking about, but I haven't seen a "Pink Weiß"-less Halloween party with more than 7.0x, which led me to believe that its hard to overcome that crutch. If you do have one with 7.75 multiplier, you're really gonna fuck with my mind cuz I'm gonna spend forever trying to figure out what layout it was and how.

I thought this too, and then I tried to do the Halloween Party with the "Easy to Please" perk and it just wasnt beating the benefit of using no cups for beer. My score and even total happiness was lower.

I feel the opposite. Halloween party was very beer heavy with the Diks needing 14 of them and Thanksgiving was also beer heavy with the Diks needing 11. Christmas was the first one in which the Diks didn't really ask for a lot of beer with 4 needed by Jacob and Tommy and 5 needed to fulfill the MC's general task. Sure, DPC throws in the occasional "We need cups" or "we need trash cans" but like I said before I just don't think those compensate for the utility of being able to place those cups wherever you want if you need to, or not placing them at all if that helps you. I just haven't seen a better score without Pink Weib/haven't been able to do it.

Yeah DPC really fucked us on that one. Genuinely a dick move, especially after making the MC only at 10% happiness. Least he could do is throw us some extra happiness for him based on other decisions, but no...

yeah you're right, i was sure i guess i suck at counting numbers. And i obviously missremembered my multiplayers (guess that's what happens with 1y+ dev time). My best Haloween was 6.75 with 96635 and 6.75 for thanksgiving with 95694. (i also checked perks, i actually went for easy to please -> crowdfunding -> multiplyer)
I wonder how would your scores look like w/o cash cheat and if pink weiss is better, but even counting cheapest activities 7.75 should still better (but less rewarding storywise).
Sorry for the mix up and having you scratching your head, i must've been getting a shit ton of 6.75's and ingrained in my head that they were 7.75.
But still $ argument still upholds, pink weiss strains your bank a lot if you want to get value out of it, and it's hard to go for any econ with it, coz id assume it's just best to go for pink weiss + jello + mul + pricey items as upgrades (which kind of requires planning for future boards). Overall much less flexible build.
My total for christmas was 105924 and my overal total is 298253.

Magnar definitely wouldn't stoop to that but Ron did start the water balloon war on Derek first, either way it's going to a good time to see unfold



Whatever this Plan B is will most likely come into effect since Chad and MC are building bridges towards a common goal, Magnar seems confident it won't come to it but he's underestimated both of them

... This nerd shit is going to be another red herring isn't it...

We know that they are the authors of the letters sent to the jocks, and therefore that they had access to DIK's computer to retrieve the photos. So that's not a red herring.

But as for the photo of Katy, and the video of Jade sent to Burke, we don't have 100% confirmation that it's them. Indeed, between sending anonymous letters (but not so much because it's done in such a way as to incriminate the DIKs) and publishing a teacher's nude and sending the video of the MC and Jade to her husband, there's a big difference in objective and method.

Magnar's stated aim is for the frats to destroy each other, and that's what the letters are for. If that doesn't work, he talks about a plan B. I imagine that plan B consists of destroying each frat individually, for the jocks it's enough to make Chad's sexual orientation public, for the DIKs it can't be Jade's video because it's not canon (but must be able to find something else), and for the Preps it can be anything related to Tybalt.

It's not totally crazy to say that not everything is the nerds' fault. Maybe there really is a traitor in DIK...

She could be the Chekhov's gun we've all been waiting for

Josy and Nick competing to see who can rat out MC and Bella in record time was a true paradigm shift in the episode. If I have to choose between Josy and Maya to die in a burning house, I already know who I'm going to save.

All good, my reply to you actually inspired another user to reply to me and he provided some examples of very good boards for all parties without Pink Weib. I think he straight up got the best score possible (legally) for the Halloween Party using the DIK Party perk, neither Pink Weib nor Multiplier Madness. So at the end of the day your point was proven right

Here's the Halloween Party score I got for that 7.75x Layout with DIK Party.

If you wanna see some of the other parties, check out his other posts!

It's pretty funny. The kid thinks he's a genius and got carried away playing super spy, imagining himself as a CIA agent conducting a PsyOP. He'll be hurt when he faces reality.

Poor Bella screwed twice in 1 episode here, I want to give Nick the benefit of the doubt but on my Bella runs that guy is enemy #1, no lap dances or old folks home favours for you Nick, fuck your fish
