I don't think that's the case, Ayane doesn't remember anything from the reset so she's very unlikely to actually do anything with it
with Maya suggesting a shopping "date", and remembering that Himawari was the one selling the scarf to Akira, I think it's much more likely she's trying to reforce the event we saw in chapter 1
On top of that, Nu Maya didn't comment on the scarf at all when Ayane still wore it, despite Alt Maya suggesting that giving it to Nu Maya might shock her back to reality. This implies that the current relevance of this scarf to Maya is perhaps gone with her old memories (or via some other unknown mechanisms), and Himawari keeps the scarf for now to perhaps wait for the most impactful time to deliver the scarf (just like what she did before, as you suggested) since now that Ayane not only can't remember Alt Maya told her that, but she also can't remember the fact that Sensei once bought Maya Prime the scarf in the main timeline.

The post below me replied to two file leaks, mega and gofile.
Is that a new record?

No obvious images in the patch look like happy event levels of fucked up Bingo is probably right.


I have no idea how you lot handle this, unless you're saving in between every event. I like the game but not THAT much.


I've had a bad night so I'm not putting in the normal effort I'd normally do. When Sel started making the game, he posted it here where it got a TON of exposure (and people pledging) to the point it's probably still the largest source of income the game has to this date. It's never gone viral elsewhere (to the point that a reaction image from the game went 300k retweets viral on twitter a month ago and we were wondering if something interesting would actually happen due to it)

During these days he was an active poster and was generally pleasant and helpful, like Moonflare today would be. But once he started making better than 'real job' money from it he started getting more hostile about content leaking here. After he made care packages and they started leaking here he tried getting the game removed from the site by highlighting how Chika was 16 years old, and trying to get the game banned from the site using site rules, inciting hate raids from the discord of his dicksuckers to mass report the game for it. I think this is a link to this thread when this was happening. There's a statement by Sel where he defends why he spent weeks attacking the site instead of making the game and a lot of long posts pointing out the hypocrisy

iirc this merely got his f95zone account banned. Then at some point he outsourced some save deleting DRM which would wipe every LiL save from your computer if it detected a care package was installed. The DRM being hidden in gui.rpy and a random image from the dorms (imagine savedeleter.exe renamed into a jpg but it also displayed a usable image.) Apparently that one got the game shadowbanned from the site (Which is why it doesn't appear on the update queue. The only new people who show up in this thread basically lurked long enough to be recommended the game from other people, or in my case very specific tags and arranging by game score). This probably stopped any new income coming in from f95zone's audience so good job mr dev I hope you're happy.
I wondered what that drm thing was. Is it still being uploaded on the site and should you be using the disable drm patch? And yeah, I found that Chika thing. Think that's part of the reason why I said he was talking badly about the mods. Honestly this whole thing just sounds like massive greed alert. I mean that's obvious, he got most of the success from here after all. Not sure what else to say about the situation but it is what it is.

So are those >3000 love events supposed to be just Easter Eggs or actual canon events for people who data mine (i.e. check URM or code)?
I haven't checked those out yet, but without having spoiled myself too much, at least this one seems rather insightful, I suppose?

Because if they are actually relevant to the plot, I'd find it a bit annoying to hide it behind something that you would only find out by tinkering in the code and also only realistically achievable by cheating.
I don't fucking know.

I have been worried about this all the time, I want to make sure there is always a true save to fall back to, but I have no idea if Ayane's easter egg flags are a trap or meant to be achieved. I don't know if Selebus is trying to create pre-update flags that can detect if you checked a box before implementing something new and punish you for using DRM or tinkering with the game's files directly. This would in theory, have been Sensei-Quest's job, but I find it much easier to fix this than having seen an easter egg.

this is going to taunt me forever but I do not regret my decision. she fully and truly did not want what she asked. I don't think I'll ever go back even if I keep the save. fuck whatever potential "true" "green" ending. I'm not putting her through that. how could I go back when she was shocked by having it be turned down. this game has been getting me trapped in my own head but being faced with that choice shook me free... partly. I can't stop thinking about it but that's probably the point. It made a statement, loud and clear. and that event will stick with me for a long ass time probably.

From what little I've seen, none of the hidden Himawari events set any flags. At least not as it is now.

Which events have the ayane Easter eggs, and what are their requirements? Been following game for a year and a half now, and this is the update that pushed me towards the green path.

When it isn't heavy handed, I enjoy how the various narrators can be interpreted as referring to the reader as well as the characters. I think that in this update's Imani vouyer scene most of the narration is targeted towards the reader as much as Tsukasa. Sel's ability to obfuscate the intent of the author is a huge chunk of the appeal of this game, especially in recent updates where he's seemingly shown some of that intent, or maybe what little narrative security we've been given is just fuel for further confusion.

Which is doubly strange because the importance of the scarf stems from the "first time you told me you love me" story.

This happened before the resets, so New Maya should remember it, but clearly doesn't even though she says that she vividly remembers her past with Akira. So the importance of the scarf has been erased from her memory, just like it was for Ayane and Sensei (who didn't recognize it as Maya's scarf after the reset).
This part confuses me too. I have to intentionally dance around her words and arrive to a very stretched conclusion that this green scarf was maybe something Maya already owned before she met Akira. From the looks of it, it was Akira that gifted the scarf a special meaning (or a new meaning?) after they met and fell in love, but since the item had a history that went earlier than tutor time, all memories related to the scarf got purged. I personally don't like to interpret things like this, feeling like overexploiting words.

Or, maybe the importance of the scarf to Maya has been erased from everyone's mind due to reason unknown and by entity unknown, and that's an additional ruling on top of New Maya only remembering the time after she met Akira (at first I thought as least Sensei remembered, hence asking Ayane the scarf question right after reset7. But upon revisiting that event and judging from the lack of reaction, I have to agree with you that Sensei also didn't remember)

Edit: though my take on the "nostalgic scent" is different. I thought it simply means that Ayane, Himawari's mom, was wearing it just seconds ago and that was the sole reason why Himawari had a fleeting thought of keeping the scarf for herself.

This update: last main event; need 3k Ayane love points.

Edit:
Before this update:
Scientific Research - 2k needed
Miserably Ever After - 3k needed

Exactly, not as it is now.

All it takes is for the game to be coded in such a way that getting into ayane's Easter egg is considered a "chain" without triggering any actual flags and you have a completely different reality in your hands.

Worst case scenario, I change the program
