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

[KPGAMING]

Does anyone have any pictures suggestions of their layout of the Halloween Party Planner???

So close...

I'm curious about the branching of Episode 12's science class. The second encounter with Cinderella is optional, as is helping Sally with her mission, and showing an interest in learning more with Nora asks. By default, we'll probably be stuck with Sally, but maybe we can switch partners again

I believe we are forced into pairing with Sally and hanging out with her, because she has a role to play in the unmasking of Magnar. But the helping with the mission or making out is optional, we are still going to become "friends" (for want of a better word), as she will be a valuable assist to the canon plot.

 

[TuckeredOut]

That's how you know it's happening

Wait, you protected Nick too? What the hell

The fact that it's being tracked means that if you don't protect him it'll just come back and bite you in the ass at some point in the future

But Milton, I want to "explore chemistry" with Cindy

I do my part by not badmouthing him after he leaves the DIKs—as MC of course, as Spock I say Nick can go fuck himself —but does he really deserve to be protected like that? The whole situation is Tommy's fault but that doesn't mean Nick should get a pass for fucking his gf.

Well it will not matter much anyways... only if it was sally with the outtage to reveal the camera for example.

Otherwise, it doesnt really matter how the dormies got their hands on the pictures, they were on display for everybody anyways. But if it would be Beth or so... i think it would have been revealed already in ep 11, the dormie revenge plot is pretty much done. So i think the outtage is connected to the camera. Just like it has beend said in the game, without the outtage, it wouldnt have blinked.

I've also thought about a technical angle but it fails at the same point the camera action fails. Neither the router or the camera is going to factory reset from a power outage. Router will come back up and reconnect, camera will keep retrying until it hits the router (or outside connection). So if the camera was indeed connected to the DIK router it would only blink until the router finished it's power cycle. If it's using an outside connection it would back up right away.

Of course all the previous is bullshit since BaK isn't a technical manual.

Yeah it could be that Nick had no direct involvement, or a minor role in it.

You shouldn't rat him out at the first chance but after he throws you under the bus and goes on a rant he's fair game.

In character for the MC, Nick hasn't really done anything bad to you at this point and depending on the run (Bella) he's even kept secrets for you up to this point as far as we know so not nudging him to talk is the right thing to do. In character of course.

Not to mention, if you are installing a spy camera, why the fuck would it have a blinking trouble light on it?

But I've been reliably informed bad writing doesn't happen. Or only when he can't find the proper assets.

But Milton, I want to "explore chemistry" with Cindy

And after our 'chemistry' proves successful, I'm moving straight to 'biology'.

 

[-d2d-]

I'm coming around to the idea that Nick is "innocent".

Obviously not completely innocent as he bangs Heather and outs all the DIKs secrets but innocent about the traitor accusations.

I am still, however, completely baffeled about the whole laptop debacle which I have been convinced is a red herring and that the real culprit for everything is just the obvious answer of Magnar and Co.

But WHY CAN NICK ADMIT TO USING THE LAPTOP BUT NOT THAT HE POSTED THE CLUCK! Even though I now believe that it is probable a red herring I still can't answer this damn question in a satisfying way. I've heard joke answers like jacking off to pictures of Heather and I've heard traitor theories like sending files to Magnar from the laptop to get back at Tommy and I've heard that Nick let in Vinny through a window who used the laptop to post the cluck but nothing fits satisfyingly in my mind.

I know it'll probably not end up meaning anything but this has been annoying me so much ever since release. Why did he have the damn laptop at the most suspicious damn time possible.

I played that lab scene a few ways but I can't figure out what flag controls a successful for not successful experiment. It's probably something obvious but I did try switching my affinity around and couldn't make the connection.

 

[Einarr the Red]

I worked in a house that was wired for 3 phase. Only one though, and that was a builder's house who had a lot of other hobbies.

Yeah, would be pretty rare. Hate to have seen his electric bill, that's a lot of current. Must have been some heavy duty hobbies, machine shop maybe?

 

[NadaMucho]

My only thought is he caught Vinny posting the Cluck and was trying to "fix" things. Probably wrong but it's my only feasible idea.

I agree with you, as far as I'm concerned Nick needs to end up here

 

[MiltonPowers]

It has to be something really bad (in his mind anyway), worse than betraying his DIK brothers.

When he'd rather be thought a traitor than admit what he was really doing.

 

[Chillout1984]

Then why is he seen in the library after the laptop was already found there? Was he as a coincidence in the toilet the moment someone else found the laptop?

"I didn't post the Cathy Cluck, I was only sending the nerds our files so they could fuck us over! See, I'm innocent!"

Did you let the concoction cool at the end so it changes color? That was fucking me over at first, I skipped over that last instruction.

 

[_jim_johnson]

That was the main thing. He was into cars quite a bit, and really liked the fabrication side or it.

We know that pictures are on the DIK laptop which suggests that Nick is working with Magnar to screw over Tommy. I can't help but think that this is a red herring though.

I just checked out the bella voice line in your sig and I wish i didn't have ears anymore.
