When spending time with Freddy on Mondays my MC says there is nothing left to do but talk to Larson to setup the NCHDL but I haven't done/started either Tamara or Derek's quests to get them to join. Is there a way to reset the NCHDL stuff with the console?
I have the same problem. Can someone answer this question?

What happens is when you are on one faction mission, the game presents multiple faction mission options. If you take an option for a mission you are not on, it screws up that resolution. If you are careful and only pursue options for your active mission, it seems to work OK.
How it is possible to do so? Most stuff starts automatically. I see no way to prevent starting the other faction missions.

I am finding it quite impossible to get the club started by November 4th, I have tried five times with all of my effort and yet it seems I am cursed to not have the club the first year...

Derek and Tamara's option to join the NCHDL depend on your progress tutoring Tamara. I'm not sure what the exact trigger is but if you tutor Tamara twice a day every school day starting from the first time that option is available you should be able to recruit both of them even if you start the timer as early as possible by immediately inviting Freddy home every Monday. Also for Tamara make sure to ALWAYS tutor her on Mondays until she joins because her option to join only happens on a Monday even if you meet all of the other qualifications. It also helps if social is your primary stat because that affects how many relationship points you get with Tamara for tutoring.

If you're trying to get this part done as fast as possible I would wait to talk to Larson about Derek until Friday daytime after having tutored Tamara twice a day every day that week. That will ensure you have enough tutoring sessions with Tamara for the soccer option to be available for Derek. Also, focus on getting Derek to join first. I think Tamara requires more tutoring than Derek does to meet her requirement.

Typically you get asked "Do you want to follow up now?" For example "Should I follow Kelly?" Say no.

mental. not a social. when you first met with them(derek, tamara and freddy) there is a choice and if your answer is "pretty much..." then it`s [natural mental] when tutoring tamara. other choice gives 1 favor per tutoring.

I am finding it quite impossible to get the club started by November 4th, I have tried five times with all of my effort and yet it seems I am cursed to not have the club the first year...
you actually can start a club without tamara. start investigation on derek, have a lunch with him. and when you find out about derek`s problems with sport you can solve it with principal (derek joins) after that is possible to pull a favor from principal and have her secretary sing in as member.

This, I will try this, this is probably what I did wrong

I give up, I have tried changing the values for Tamara and I have guaranteed gotten Derek, I have tried getting the Principal to get on board with a favor, I have tried it all and failed... And I do not know why. I am using a cheat mod [Better Experience] and nothing seems to be going my way. Can I either get some truly in depth guidance or a downloadable save file with the club started before November 4th?

Mega link for hotfix 2 infected by
Trojan:Script/Wacatac.B!ml
I tested the file and it is ok. Your scanner's heuristic setting is maybe to high, which is trying to find still unkown infections.

You need only hotfix 4. All hotfixes have the same file in it and you just overwrite them.

My system said the same, in fact I had to override a lot of security because it was deleting the zipped file and not allowing use of it.
Check if you can set the heuristic scan/analysis lower. Your scanner is looking after viruses which does not exist by scanning after suspicious code. It is a nice feature, but this creates sadly lot of false positives. If you can't set if off, I would suggest using Avira Antivirus or AVG Free (both are free). They do a good job and their heuristic does not recognize everything slightly suspicious as a virus/trojan or whatever.

Either start with mental as your primary stat or use influence at the institute to bump it up to level 3 before the beginning of week 3. Spend the first 2 weeks getting tutoring to make sure your grades are at 100 before the end of week 2 for the 100 school influence and to unlock the rest of the quests. Invite Freddy home with you on Monday of week 3 and tell him to follow Derek. Sit with Derek at lunch as soon as Freddy talks to you about Derek at school. Starting in week 3 tutor Tamara twice a day every day except for Friday of the week you had lunch with Derek. Waiting til the end of the week will ensure you have enough tutoring sessions in to recruit Derek. If you do it earlier in the week you might not have enough yet.

Just before school is out that Friday talk to Larson about Derek and you will have done enough tutoring of Tamara by then for her to agree to let Derek be the soccer team goalie. Keep tutoring Tamara twice a day from now on until she joins the club (especially Monday). Invite Freddy home every Monday until you see an option to take a trip with Tamara instead on Monday. Now you have both of them in the club and don't have to tutor anymore, although Derek won't do missions with you unless you build favor with him first so you might want to tutor him a bit.

So you should be able to recruit Derek by no later than Friday, October 13th.

Hello, I'm having problems with "Fear". I expected the - Terrorize option, to generate fear. But instead, it generates anger, willpower, - love and -favor. Aura of dread generates +3 fear from the first meeting of the day, and insult / brag (about your power) might generate +1 or two fear. Is there a way to raise this faster? Also, why does coercion or blackmail(the puppet icon), need +Fear and +Love? Are the any options outside of - mind control, that allows you to dominate them into submission, like a evil supervillain? Thanks

There should be a "Wait" option in combat. If you are going to have abilities require a combat timer cooldown, then it should be possible to wait for a certain amount of time rather than force Billy to choose an action.
