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

[Cndyrvr4lf]

Perhaps it's some sort of inheritance and the MC is to get it when he reaches a certain age that's why the letter has been sent so close to his Birthday.

Seems weird at 19. Most I know of are at either 18 (age of majority) or 21. If it's a partial release they normally go with incremental numbers 20, 25, etc. etc.

He's referencing when MC attempts to buy Bella lunch and Quinn walks out of the bathroom with the glory hole

Actually had to go back and check that, and yes, MIkedante is indeed correct that Quinn was there and may have heard. My apologies, Mike.

This game just has so much in it it's easy to forget certain things.

Your English is not that bad. I’ve seen much worse than this. And it’s surely better than my French .
I’m afraid the letter about MC’s mother is not going to be revealed in the next episode yet. There are too many other things going on that will have to come first. Like the Cathy cluck case. Quinn and her business issues, Mona leaving, just to name a few things that we already know almost for certain will take place in EP6.
MC’s birthday is not in the coming days so it (and the letter) will have to wait. Testing our (im)patience and leading to even crazier theories and rabbit holes..

The birthday and the letter will probably cap off season 2 as the cliffhanger. The texts between him and his Dad make it seem as though it could be a few weeks away.

Cameras have zoom functions, also she's looking down with her hair covering her eyes so she wouldn't see anything in her peripheral vision.

So much for hoping no one saved a copy!

That's like blaming me for murder if someone steals my car and run's someone over. Your car = your fault

It depends a lot on if you can prove your car was stolen. At the moment, the DIKs have no such proof, and it seems unlikely (though not impossible) they will find it by Monday morning.

I'm not saying B&R should throw the book at the DIKs; if nothing else, posting surreptitious nude pictures is a lesser crime than vehicular manslaughter. But absent actual evidence that someone else deliberately circumvented their security and hacked the account, I think some sort of punishment is in order.

If they want to have an official Rooster account, it's on them to make sure it is not misused. Their security was so lax that not only does the whole fraternity have access to it, they honestly don't know who else might as well.

Seems weird at 19. Most I know of are at either 18 (age of majority) or 21. If it's a partial release they normally go with incremental numbers 20, 25, etc. etc.

If it is some kind of automatic inheritance kicking in at this age, then it's another plot contrivance because 18 is considered a more landmark age than 19. Also, if his Mom's totally split from her family as seems to be implied, why would they have some sort of auto-inheritance/trust fund set up for him, especially when they probably don't even know he exists? I suppose it could be the Mom's own money that was tucked away somewhere unbeknownst to her family or even Neil, but that still gets back to the plot contrivance of it kicking in now.

This is why I think it feels more like his family have become aware of him because he's attending B&R and they want to meet with him to make amends for how they treated his Mom by welcoming him into the family and offering him money.

I agree with you about the security but you cant just look at one aspect of a crime and ignore the rest. Who took the picture? No one even seems to care about that. Who posted the picture? Again no one cares. Social media website accessible by all DIK's posted the picture? Rusty's fault. "Game logic"

 

[Lolzi]

f'me the renders in this are awesome. Probably worth paying for individually...

and I'm compiling myself an OST out of this...

 

[hakuna-matata]

If she could get away with that then yeah I just hope she doesn't take a ride. But I wonder if Camila can keep her mouth shut?

Mona needs to refuse all car rides.

I would roll with that too. His grandfather being loaded may or may not imply that he could be possible a donor for the college too and make economic deals with the rich kid gang there? The Royce, The Burguermaster (sorry, i can not spell it otherwise).

I trust DPC when he said it won't have incest, so i won't have thoughts going that way. I will trust it until it falls on my head like a house on fire.

This is DPC world remember, although it could just be the Mothers side of the family reaching out.

Well, Rusty is the president of the frat, so the buck stops with him. But with regards to those questions, the DIKs do want to know the answers and I'm sure the staff councillor group do too, but right now they only have the DIKs as suspects so it will be up to Rusty to plead their innocence and the MC has also helped with that.

The MC being Rusty's cousin is still my prevailing theory. It's just ripe for some delicious drama, plus it would piss Tommy off and that's the sweet cherry on top.

Yeah, they are treating it as if it was the same situation with the Jocks. But it's very different.

The Jocks situation? All Chad.
The DIKs? Rusty's the president? Whatever man, he's not the only one with acess to a phone and their main account.

Depends on where you are. Even in the US its rather a broad spectrum. Misdemeanor all the way up to subcategory felony depending on state.

That's not how innocence works, or well how it's supposed to work. Not sure about other countries but here in the US it's the prosecutor who has to prove you guilty. Granted sometimes the evidence can be awfully flimsy but still......

That's certainly fair.

If we want to be as generous to the game as possible, we don't know what actual investigation the school, or even the DIKs, might have been conducting in the meantime. After all, Rusty to told the MC not to let this ruin his Hell Week, so it's not like he and Derek would be getting updates if minor clues have been found.

But now that I've advocated for the devil, I'll confess I'd be flabbergasted if either of those parties have actually bothered looking further into this than noticing the Cluck was posted in the first place.

Sorry for that, but it seems to me pretty strange to talk about the MC's age "cause I am quite sur we don't know how old he is.
For example, in France, before to go to college, a lot of kids are generally under 18 years of age. We graduate from high school at 17 years old. If we don't flunk before, of course.
Are we absolutely sure he'll turn 19 ?

No worries. I love DPC's writing until he tries to go all drama orientated. Normally he get's so in depth that the People and scenes come alive until he has to Plot Force something and then its like we enter "The Twilight Zone". Drive's me nuts

We know exactly how old he is cause they told us.

 

[RonnieBoi]

Yeah, I think so. A sixth sense.
I, for one, only have two. Touch and Taste. It's quite enough .
Other sens are useless to me

Totally agree but now you have touched on the subject of sixth sense that women apparently have,
I remember that some pages ago there was a long and heavy discussion here about the game mechanics and how badly the dik/chick affinity is implemented. Because it is based on decisions that they (the LI’s, all women) could not possibly know about....
Well, surprise! They (women) have an unusual awareness of things they can’t know according to male logic.
MC has DIK written all over your forehead even if he just thought about beating up Troy / Jocks / Tybaltz etc.
And of course they have incredible memory capacity to remember even the smallest details forever and ever while we (men) normally fail to remember what we said and when, but that’s another story...

 

[Youven]

[xsssssssss]

Seems completely realistic to me that college authorities are only going to care about where picture was posted in this sort of instance unless there’s obvious evidence clearing the group that posted it.

Then you would blame the whole Frat not just the President. You don't see the AAA's being disbanded because of Chad's actions. Why blame Rusty for the DIK's actions?
