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

[Walter Victor]

If the van " might be " nothing at all then THIS is nothing at all as well Conclusion : both are placed there specifically to " mean something " even though it's just a guessing game now what it actually is... Anyhow most of the folks haven't even picked up on such little things coz as it seems growing number of " players " are hitting the TAB or sleeping on the CTRL...

Exactly. There is no doubt in my mind that DrPinkCake has placed these breadcrumbs deliberately for us to ponder/speculate/worry about. Whether they are significant or just more red herrings is unknown to any of us. Oh well, the speculations do liven up the board though.

As for those 'players', the one who took the cake was the one who complained using false information, then after being called out, whined that he couldn't be bothered reading the details.

What is the name of your MC ?

[nyrek]

What is the name of your MC ?

except in summer's gone. that guy is so cringe I had to restart the game to rename him. he's not worthy of the Fuckface name

Riona's stalker shoes do not match the shoes on the van. The shoes of the stalker have a black stripe in the sole, which is missing from the shoes of the van.

Good catch! But that doesn't debunk the theory that this stalker's reason for watching Riona is not what he said it was. What the hell IS he doing on his cell after fleeing from the MC?

 

[FreshRevenge]

She already did... glad you played the game

was this in the interlude? Becais

Once again, someone who only looks at BaDIK's pictures.

I replayed it again, I think what happened was after the whole Emma jealous rage with phone pictures, I felt it was not interesting. So I probably skipped over some of the dialog.

I thought the whole abrupt jealousy act from Emma came out of nowhere. Unless that was her whole motive for taking the pictures. Because after that Zoey just lost all motivation for surfing and living there.

I do hope they dont't force Zoey to be the LI for the MC. I get that she is back and thinks things are going to return to normal and the MC is going to drop everything that he has going. Personally I feel she is going to be a thorn in his side but will have to wait and see.

Which only confirms what sixart and dalli_x said.

The moral of this is that one should not make statements when they don't know what the %!&# they are talking about.

I have previously suggested that Emma had been jealous of Zoey for months, and had planned out the whole beach-pictures scene in advance, to do exactly what she did.

As for Zoey being forced as a love interest: aside from the fact that she already is one and has been for years, DrPinkCake is not going to force you to do anything sexually with her or anyone else. But she will be there, doing whatever DPC decides she should be doing. What your MC does with her will be completely up to you, though.

the plot has requirements that cannot be avoided.

DPC probably won't force the player to do anything sexual with Zoey (and would that be good news? ) but it will almost certainly force us to watch in amazement as MC and perhaps the LI we chose in chapter eight have their next crisis of conscience.

"go talk to her!!! you need to rid your heart of any doubts before you build our love nest of rose petals and cotton balls!"
"please put your underwear back on, I can't...I need to clear up with Zoey first, I haven't heard from her in months, but in a corner of my heart I've always hoped she'd come back!!!"

so might as well get over it, MC will be shocked by Zoey (as we can already see in the interlude when Neil tells him about her arrival)

The van actually proves that it is a law enforcement agency. It would be stupid if the police wanted to observe someone and used a police van for surveillance.

Only slightly less stupid than using a massive van, when a single person would do.

To #1: They parked out of sight, only Riona got too close to the van. That's why someone is hiding there when they get out.

So you claim, but even that would never ever happen, they would have eyes on her and before she would be able to view the van, it would move. Again, their biggest advantage is the person not knowing he or she is being surveiled.

To # 2: Maybe they also have a room in the dorm.

Possible, however unlikely. It would be a giant waste of ressources for 2 college girls dealing drugs, just imagine the newspaper article "after a months long investigation, including surveillance and undercover assets, the 2 suspects were finally arrested. 2000$ cash and 1000$ worth of drugs were confiscated" ... people would literally tear the police HQ down.

To # 3: Of course the same van is used every day. It must be routine. The van driver goes to the college cafeteria for lunch every day and is constantly hauling boxes to and from the van. This is unobtrusive. But if a new van arrives every day, the surveillance will be uncovered in 2-3 days.

Its a VAN, not a sports car, they are not pleasure rides. When a Van, that doesnt belong, frequents a small area it draws attention. Like why use smth the size of a Van when a fixed 360° cam would do.

To # 4: A van without windows can be used for many things. Maybe there is a cop in it, who controls a surveillance drone.

I agree, it could be delivering goods or picking them up, or maybe its the tour Van of Van Halen. And yes surveillance drones dont seem too excesive either ...

To # 5: Read again to # 1. Besides, he got out unnoticed by Quinn and Riona.

An informant, CI or UC would never ever risk that. You dont risk compromising your asset for kicks, he or she would stay away from any surveilance craft like the devil from holy water. He/She would prob have weekly meetings with a contact or his handler and a phone number for emergencys, but one doesnt just casually stroll into a surveillance vehicle when being undercover.

Well my LI was Sage so yeah, that is enough drama to deal with but throw in the ex girlfriend who left to be a surfer comes back. Yeah I can see MC is going to have a ball of a time mopping the floor.

We shouldn't forget that drug dealing is not the only thing that Riona is mixed up in. The misuse of funds that are supposed to be used as charitable donations and might have been diverted to sex with coeds would be a federal offense. The FBI, the Treasury Department and the DEA could all be interested. So, perhaps it's not just Riona that is being surveilled but the entire campus, and Riona is just the only one who has noticed it.

Zoey is fine with me as a distraction.

the other diversions used so far I have not liked almost nothing, she can only do better

p.s. with Sage there isn't a single drama scattered in the story that can't fall between your head and neck suddenly
Jade? the video of Jade? Quinn? the restaurant? the hots?
all landmines that for the true believers will go off at triple the power.

But that's exactly it, if there is a surveillance operation going on and it would be much bigger than just the drugs, they would use a much more sophisticated way than a Van parked on a street, especially if, god forbid, the FBI would be involved. They brought Mafia families and drug cartels down, they wouldnt make PI mistakes.

 

[TimHawk]

My good man.

DPC set it up so that someone is standing behind the van hiding. And the scene shows us so that Riona and Quinn did not notice anything.

We see the van and behind it Riona is selling something to horny black haired Joanne (Hahaha not Carolyn). Riona doesn't seem to pay much attention to the van. So if it is a surveillance van, the supervisors at BaDIK have done everything right.

Actually, no one at BaDIK is worried about the van. Maybe it is also Leon's grandfather's van.

But what professional would even risk getting caught ? Most certainly nobody who was trained for the job. They cant know if someone looks or doesnt, they just remove that option altogether by being smart.

Come on! What better way to surveil a college campus than to park a van right outside in the same place every single day. Are there any buildings nearby they could be hiding in? I don't recall any. It's called hiding in plain sight. Inside the van could be both audio and visual equipment, plus someone who could be communicating with an operative (or operatives) on campus.

And the guy stepping outside is perfect. A guy making a delivery would appear perfectly normal to anyone watching. "Hey, there's the guy who delivers the coffee milk packets and bananas to the cafeteria. Hi, Joe!"

 

[AchedCroissant]

the ex girlfriend

Who?

but that's the point

the van is there so we can see it, a perfect surveillance operation would be narratively boring and useless, you have to warn of danger, otherwise it would just be random twists and turns

The authorities don't want small fry like Quinn and Riona. They want the backers or women.

Who says they only let professionals investigate on campus? I've already brought Jacob in as an informant. Jacob was arrested walking around campus naked. He gets a deal and in return he has to provide information. What if the destruction of the mansion in EP5 was a police raid? Then a few dildos are set up and alpha letters are sprayed on the wall. A room is left alone. All a nice distraction to keep an investigation a secret.

Guess why there are security camera's on campus. The question that always comes up for me with this picture is why Derek and the MC get off scot free. Are the security cameras turned off or are they being protected by someone? Another question is whether the sex of Maya and the MC in EP8 was also recorded by the security cameras?

 

[sixart]

Phew... this is gonna be a long one Perverts... take a break !

Because after that Zoey just lost all motivation for surfing and living there.

Nope ... I really do wonder whether or not you actually played this game... she ran out of money... and ofc she misses Fuckface

What your MC does with her will be completely up to you, though.

I really DO HOPE SO... something feels weird about this Zoey injection... I hope it's not a mandatory stuff coz that would fuck up the game in principles

Maybe the stalker was supposed to be investigating the DIKs, but flunked the Cum Petition and was then sent after Riona. In EP8, he is on the phone with his supervisor to file a report, but is interrupted by the MC. To avoid being exposed, he says, so he stalks Riona.

I don't think that tosser is an operative... I think HE REALLY WAS stalking Riona but that doesn't mean the one who " investigates " is caught in fact !

In principle, we may already decide in Interlude how it will go on with Zoey and the MC.

Definitelly... the whole structure of the game ( and ongoing ) screams for " if - then " scenarios approaching

Maybe it is also Leon's grandfather's van.

I only mentioned Leon as the " culprit " because it makes no sense and is an actual " SURPRISE MODDAFUKKA !!! " moment if it comes to reality

The question I have is whether or not Stephen Burke knows about this. If so, he is probably cooperating with the authorities, if not, the authorities will investigate him.

What Derek said in EP1 is interesting.
Derek: "I mean, how can the HOTs afford to pay the tuition for the freshmen?"
Derek: "Why do the security guards treat some people differently?"

What if the security staff knows that the investigators are on campus because they are investigating HOT Tuition?

" Outsiders " can't get involved in an ongoin investigation such as " security " sooo... I don't think ANYONE from administrative point is a person of interest... maybe from the investigations side !

was this in the interlude? Becais

 

[shazba]

"please put your underwear back on, I can't...I need to clear up with Zoey first..."

WTF!
