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

[TrainHardnett]

There the third category that came out of that "game" that most won't talk about, the outliers you could call them (ones that don't play pecking order). Its the ones that started the age old "its the quiet ones you got to watch". Young Mc falls into this category (once he fought back). Its the ones that have a long fuse and a horrible temper. But will return to a lower key behavior. Essentially the lone wolf (a form of a alpha in its own right). Even smart alphas are hesitant to fuck with. (Once lone wolf snaps). Dumb ones try and fail or it ends up bad.

I can testify to this, unless they are dumb as a brick and do it for shits and giggles to see what happens when the "quite" one finally snaps.

any chances the update will be dropped this week? or 23rd more probable one?

Probs next week. If we're super lucky and everyone made enough ritual sacrifices to their pagan gods, maybe this Friday.

Sage is before you graduate, that's true. But she has a responsibility to find a worthy successor as president for herself. Until EP6, Sage sees Quinn as a worthy successor, but Sage knows nothing about Quinn's side businesses. And that's where I think Heather comes in. For me personally, Heather is hard to judge. She has the potential of an alpha female, but not the place in the hierarchy of HOT's. Heather could only get that if Quinn is discredited and given a higher rank in the group by Sage.

Melanie I think will not be Chad's fling and Arieth just wants her fun.

There's another that I think could turn out to be a contender. Granted she's new, but kinda is a mixture of both sage and quinn (without the "questionable choices") and thats lily. And could be something similar to mc's role in the dik hierarchy if it plays out. Granted she may just end up being an antagonist to quinn, but could easily quickly move up the ranks within the hots like mc did with the diks.

 

[derek.is.the.key]

define what is the DIK attitude.? No deny that it was Vinny who showed them a path, but he affected the others with his bad influence. The Diks were fucking leechers, freeloaders. All they did was enjoying Rusty's money or more properly his Dad's money. once it was gone, we saw what kind of peoples the Diks truly are, , a bunch of loser. That is the Legacy of Vinny. The first real trouble real obstacle breaks them.

That's Why we have a direct comparison with MC and Vinny. Vinny was the bad way, MC is the right way. What the DIK attitude will be, it will be define by the MC , by us. at least that's what I think

Good point. Lily could turn out to be a positive alpha woman. She has all the makings of one. (self-confident, proactive, committed, self-reliant and self-critical).

The term "alpha animal" is used as an animal metaphor for humans.

The term alpha animal is derived from alpha, the first letter in the Greek alphabet: Alpha animals are therefore the "first" (i.e., highest-ranking) animals in their group. Accordingly, the animals immediately following them in rank are called beta males or beta females, and those in last place in the hierarchy are called omega animals.

Tommy is not an omega. Tommy is a beta who personally thinks he is an alpha. Alpha's are challenged by Beta's, which is why there will be disagreements between MC and Tommy.

dali you just described an omega, i did say omegas act like betas. betas normally arent seeking power or leadership roles. omegas are the guys you usually see as lieutenats to an alpha. alphas use omegas as right hand men. the ones who help keep the pack in line when the alpha isnt present. so yeah tommy is omega. currently in a beta role. but his interactions with quinn, clearly suggest to me, that in a future reveal tommy is seeking to usurp rusty, just as quinn is seeking to usurp sage. in quinns case, its gonna happen regardless when sage graduates. but in tomy rustys case, they grasduate the same year. so something has to change for tommy to usurp him, perhaps a photo of cathy nakid cluck on the dik laptop will put the omega in charge

in batman the joker was omega until he usurped grissom, makeing the joker the new alpha but yet still omega, cuz his crayons always color outside the box.

khan from startrek typical alpha.

in warriors the bad guy/villian was prolly omega as they come.

batman poisen ivy, very omega. kills her alpha and colors outside the box extremely well but seeks a new alpha in mr freeze

Sage is graduating soon so Quinn is in line for taking over but that's if she doesn't get caught for running a prostitution and drug ring. No way does that end well for her. All the rotten shit that's happening is going to have fallout to varying degrees. We already see that with Cathy's resignation since she apparently can't live down the image that got posted of her and Mona's removal from the college's computer system (that's going to bite Burke in the ass at some point). Seriously, just look at DPC's first game, that says everything about what is intended for how this one is going to ultimately end. I'll honestly be shocked if nobody dies. I also suspect Arieth is smarter than she lets on, knows she has crabs and is intent on spreading it to every guy she possibly can on campus considering how she wants to know who Josy and Maya had the threesome with so badly. Then there's Melanie who is obviously the one that Chad was cheating with that Sage is going to flip her shit over since that effectively breaks the HOT code, once she finds out about it. I could keep going but we all know these things, all in all, most of the characters in this game are royally fucked in the head to some degree and are going to get some harsh life lessons. This is why i'm seriously considering starting a new save and actively avoid all interactions that could potentially lead to trouble just to see where that path might lead.

there are a lot of choices to be made with care because they will bring consequences .. for example to go or not with bella, cathy and / or jade .. if burke gets everything practically you can recreate the laptop gate .. it all comes out and becomes a scandal .. punch tybalt or just go with tommy to the strip club with the fake IDs ... in my opinion there is a lot of trouble in these too .. since the beginning of the game they try to put the MC by force in matters as a scapegoat .. they succeeded with chad .. at some point all these choices will surely ask for the bill ..

Bro, while I agree with you that we havent seen much of Heather yet, everything that we have seen, is the exact opposite of beeing an alpha.

1) When she is in her wheelchair she is outraged at Tommy - he tells her to beat it and the quietly rolls on.
2) At the pool Quinn puts her in her place and she caves.
3) In the Prep Mansion bathtub, she says she doesnt wanna look at MC, girls tell her to do it, she does it.
4) Same place she says MC doesnt turn her on, girls tell her it should, she starts rubbing herself.
5) Movie night Quinn starts the anal/blowjob/threeway game, Heather becomes super insecure.
6) Sage route, MC catches her on the sofa, she gets bitchy, you put her in her place, she caves and appologizes.

I think the most natural successor - if its not Quinn - is Sarah, however, nobody knows what will happen to her if Sage finds out that she knew about Chad all along.

i agree heather is no alpha, very insecure, but she seeks sheltering relationshipa with alphas. willing to follow orders says she is beta big time. not a successor, not a leaderr. i dont see her replaceing sage.

Omegas do not behave like betas. Omega's are last in the hierarchy and have to earn or fight for the rank of a Beta. Tommy is definitely a Beta with Alpha ambitions. (Star Trek Voyager was about particle physics and not about humans).

Since Rusty has no financial support from his father, Tommy could have tried to challenge Rusty's rank. But then the MC showed up, who in my opinion is or will be the strongest Alpha on campus. MC, however, has the bulk of the DIKs behind him. Tommy definitely recognized that and as a beta who thinks he is an alpha, Tommy will put his attention on MC.

Quinn is a negative alpha female and Sage is a positive alpha female. There are different theory on whether Quinn wants to be president of the HOT's or not and both theory have good points.However, since Sage has the power of the presidency behind her, Heather could play a special role. I would also imagine that Heather is not stupid. She knows full well that Sage will be graduating college soon and the Vice President will be Sage's successor. So it's easier and more clever to discredit Vice President Quinn and take her place.

on a different topic, tri alphas has essentially lost the hots at this point im betting. even the hots enjoy being the girls for diks. so with this all sewn up. what are the tri alphas doing for girls? i mean they have arieth, but who doesnt. but other than that no girls, and yeah im sure chad has a secret hot girlfriend, but hes no longer a tri alpha. the tri's are deffinately flying solo now. somethings gonna blowup to bring them back in the light.

HAVE the jocks lost the HOTs? If anything, after Tommy/Quinn's fallout and the DIKs not being able to host parties while they fix the house, I feel like the jocks are actually in a better position with the HOTs now.

Good point, but I think Dawe beeing president now and Chad breaking up with Sage means the HOTs would rather sit on a fence post than hang out with the Jocks. They all HATE Dawe...and not just for pissing in their pool.

i might have to go back to that scene, i thot it was just an argument, not a fallout. but ill look at it again

Tommy is super pissed off at Quinn. He mentions the no HOTS thing even after his punch up with the MC. Saying that they don't need the HOTs to party, and that partying with other girls was how the DIKs started out anyways.


EDIT: Kind of wonder if this why DPC chose to introduce Becky and her crew now. Since the DIKs might be partying with the other girls on campus.

EDIT2: Although, we've already seen MC hanging out at the HOTs with that Sage/Quinn/Riona teaser, so I dunno.

The Tri-Alphas are in the process of splitting. Dawe and Anthony become opponents. Caleb, however, will influence this decision. And I'm leaning towards Warscared's assessment of Caleb. He'll be a good guy who will defend his brothers, but won't want to be taken advantage of. The one, Dawe or Anthony, who has Caleb on his side will sway the decision in his favor. As for the HOTs girls, Anthony already has friendly contact with Ashley and Dawe has a repulsive contact with Lilly.

Bro I think it wil largely depend on the route you choose, if you go full Sage I think it'll be enough to pull the DIKs and HOTs back together, but if you dumped Sage after promising to help her and went on the date with Jill, shit might fully explode.

Have you ever played a playthrough refusing Sage at the 2nd guitar lesson ? Cause if so, when the MC then meets her at the PREPs Mansion she is very impressed with him basically saying any girl he dates is a lucky girl because he is so loyal and principled. So I think MC and Sage will happen quickly - if one chooses that route, their Chemistry seem already through the roof and the rest will follow with them.

Jill route however ? Different story imo, there could be a more permanent rift between HOTs and DIKs in that case.
