I hate how early stores start setting out Christmas decorations. I miss old-fashioned Black Friday celebrations.

The main reaction to the original advert (see the first 15 seconds of the below video) for the Girlfriend (Beta) mobile gacha game was 'ha ha, Chloe Lemaire says her name in a funny way' leading to so many meme videos it was worth making a 'top 50 Chloe Lemaire videos' ranking video (nws in parts)

I think most people got it out of their system then, though there was a smaller reaction to her saying 'Chloe Lemaire desu yo' in the anime.

Depends on the version. JP has little markers on your cards now, I think, but for EN, you'll just have to seek her in the Album and check if the idolized form is available to view.

For the EN version, the least painful way is having a second one. When you go to special practice them, if the result is displayed, rather than an outline, you have already done it. Otherwise, you have to dig through that album and check that way, which is miserable.

Why even give the cards numbers if they're only in the damned album you can't even filter by type?

This is my current method, which aint great because I'm trying to clear space in my inventory. Got like 5000 friend points but I'm too drat arsed to use them due to the menu switching of pull > special practice > practice > pull > etc ad infinitum.

If a recruiter asks you to become a nuclear sailor.. you say no
The thing is, I tend to dump my friend points for random pulls since I play this game for maximum idolized form (and I have pulled a decent amount of rares from friend points, and fuel for the SR/R idolized forms otherwise (So close for the snow Halation setup)

Yeah, they just included every video with the right tags so unsurprisingly that was the most watched/commented/mylisted one.

Last score match I spent around threw stones to make sure I'd get the points for one copy of the card. I didn't care about tiering for a second copy so can't help you there.

if you're reasonably good at not wasting LP, pretty decent. No matter what, don't spend any loveca until the last day of the event. That'll keep you from spending any unnecessarily, and you're gonna level up during the event, so loveca at the end will get you more LP than it will now.

You can generally get a first copy of the SR in an event by playing competently on hard difficulty and using all of your LP. Since this event is shorter than average, you may need to spend a couple of gems at the end to make up for time lost while you sleep/work. The cutoff for the second SR usually requires about twice as many points on EN, though some events were significantly more competitive.

If your average result is 4th place and S rank score (196 pts / 15 LP), then you need to spend 1,920 LP to get the first SR at 25,000 points. This is exactly 8 days of accrual (1 LP / 6 minutes = 240 LP / 1 day), which coincidentally matches the length of the event (at 7 days, 23 hours). You will rank up at least once in the process, which provides some additional buffer. This calculation ignores any additional LP that you had at the start of the event.

I've been playing Derestage very lightly, and was surprised when I reached 2500 star gem crystal things.

And then this happened.



Does this game hate me, or love me? I can't tell.

The game thinks you could do a better job brushing, I think.

e. Speaking of scouting, does it seriously not let you have over 10k heart points? It refused to accept any more from my present box until I'd used some. What a strange restriction.

Everything else is limited, so I'm not really surprised. At least you can burn them off relatively easily, hopefully getting 9999 of any of the special lesson items will continue to be a very long way off.

It says it's 1.5%, which is pretty weak odds when you're saving up 2500 star jewels over a period of weeks but probably not so bad if you're paying them money.

It strikes me that I have drawn as many SSRs in IM@S as I have in SIF, and I'm pretty sure I've been playing that since its english release… So surely the SSR rate can't be that bad, although it does help that you can't roll 10 and just get 10 R's, I guess.
