  1. Is Slacker Malina only in there temporarily or are you always using such a terrible choice as your beta girl?
  2. Yeah, they tried to fix it yesterday, but Kinkoid's own servers seem to have some weird caching issues themselves, so not everybody necessarily sees the fixed files straight away, independent of their own local cache status (although that can definitely play a role, of course). When I log into Nutaku which uses a different content file server than HH.com, I still see the pachinko banners from last year even now, while other users are seeing the updated ones, and some players see the Gay Harem files (which I never got there, only on HH.com).
  3. Based on the posts above, I guess I drew the short straw here this week since my bracket has 103 players: Yuzuru KH 457 6 wins Superboy KH 454 5th place x2 viking1437 HC 450 2 wins pifffo KH 449 4th place x1 Grovdar KH 448 8 wins Tempter555 HC 448 5th place x2 трактор Ch 447 3rd place x1 darkf3rr3t HC 445 1 win Gergly HC 443 13th place x1 ... juju Ch 441 2 wins bloodwolf Ch 439 1 win Lazar KH 438 3rd place x8 (!) Taishigi KH 420 3rd place x1 That looks like a pretty likely top 4 and an extremely unlikely shot at winning. Wouldn't surprise me if @Grovdar takes it despite the 9-level gap to Yuzuru. The lower levels: Median 410. I'm the sole player at level 426 for the 27th position, again pretty similar to the last two weeks.
  4. About the average result of what could have been expected in that field: Second week running with a new personal best score (22.56, in total 4 points more than last week and with less RNG luck on crits here), but not nearly enough. Pyth was nice enough to rush to the finish line (22.66) with almost two days to go, at which point I knew I could no longer win the whole thing since I definitely didn't have enough points left to score to beat 6797. Got about 10 points closer to him in the end than I thought I would, but obviously 30 points of difference is still sizable. wong7lee's first career D3 win didn't surprise me that much - scouring the forum I found that he was still HC class as late as July, and since switching to KH he did a 22.72 in one of Slynia's brackets last month, so his 22.76 here was a caliber of performance I had to expect. I tried to track his probable average through the week, but that's rather difficult for players who just spend their league tokens whenever rather than those who do complete opponents (i.e. players whose points are increasing in multiples of 3 battles). It did seem to indicate pretty early that I wasn't going to beat his score, even with the vague assumptions I had to make about his battling. The top 3 players by level (wong7lee, Pyth and Ichimatsu) were actually all from the same club, but I don't believe any of them intentionally weakened for the others. I was lucky to find wong7lee beatable at all...he was usually boosted with 2 Gin + 2 Cor, but at some point in the middle of the week he suddenly showed up with 2 Ginseng only, and I took my shot at the time even though it only yielded 17 / 17 / 16 points. Even more weirdly, on the next snapshot he only had 2 Cordyceps instead, even though I never saw him without the Ginsengs according to the live stats in his profile... (Maybe all that was actually an intentional weakening, I dunno.) After that episode he was max-boosted (and max-bugged) permanently again. @MICK69 decided to demote, I guess, which made my path to the top 4 a lot more clear early on, and allowed 4th place to be claimed by a relatively lucky player averaging just over 22. Besides the winner there were two players I never saw unboosted at all, level 416 NARDI who just sneaked into the screenshot above, and a lowly level 372 Charm player. The top 15 were (in order): KH, KH, KH, Ch, Ch, Ch, Ch, HC, KH, HC (with KH alpha), KH, Ch, HC, KH, KH. Not a super-competitive bracket and an average of just under 20 was still enough to get into the top 15 ranks with 5981 for 15th and 5950 for 16th place. Edit: Forgot to mention that this past week marked the 6-month anniversary of my move up to D3. 2x 1st 8x 2nd 6x 3rd 3x 4th 1x failed top 4 (finished 6th) 6x intentional top 15's
  5. Why should event plans be changed because of what some players might have done in the Mythic Pachinko?
  6. Public Service Announcement: Wanda and Jade are currently not available from the Event Pachinko, only the Epic. This will presumably be rectified at some point. Edit: Has been fixed.
  7. And there are even two hints about the dwindling number of girls remaining, since the Draft button already gets disabled when there's only one girl left. (And then the girl rewards icon disappears altogether when it's zero, as jelom noted.)
  8. It's because natstar's mind is stuck firmly in 2018 on everything game-related and he doesn't realize that Finalmecia hasn't been a late-game boss anymore for a long time. I wonder how many newish players that have actually just reached Finalmecia are in a position to afford spending kobans on two LD girls at once, let alone players who are even newer than that. Kinkoid could put the two LD girls on Dark Lord and Ninja spy, but what's the point? And of course, as Fiel noted, the goalposts were promptly moved from "girls should be on lower bosses" to "girls should be on all the bosses". Hurray for a game experience that is as challenge-free as possible.

    New Girls

    No, your social media account of choice is the place to share your opinion. A forum is a place for discussion, and that entails expending at least a modicum of effort to check if maaaaybe the highly original topic on which you're requesting other people's thoughts has already been discussed to death for the last, oh, 11 months or so. (That this thread was originally misplaced in "Suggestions" was just the icing on the cake.)
  10. D3 with 101 players again: wong7lee KH 453 2nd place x2 Pyth KH 449 2 wins Ichimatsu Ch 447 2nd place x2 MICK69 KH 447 1 win overload100 Ch 445 4th place x4 Madcap HC 441 9th place x2 Ashura62 Ch 440 2 wins Minime HC 437 5th place x1 Filoufix KH 436 7th place x1 malbone HC 436 7th place x2 ... Sex-motor KH 435 4th place x1 DanDugstar Ch 434 2nd place x1 B.I.T.E triumvirat Ch 434 2nd place x5 gocouille HC 429 3rd place x2 Harley Ch 428 3rd place x1 NARDI KH 415 4th place x1 This could be anything between 1st and 5th+ for me... wong7lee is not only the highest-level player, but also heavily bugged (more than +4000 points right now). So that'll be a guaranteed loss for me if I can't catch that player unboosted, while the level 440+ players will probably be able to win those battles anyway, which would be an extra ~15 points I'll need to make up elsewhere. We'll see. I suppose I'm actually joint-most winning player in this bracket with 2 D3 wins... The low levels: I'm one of two players tied for 26th place at level 425, nearly the same as last week, but the median is quite a bit higher at 414. And d'oh...I just realized that I had posted my results from two weeks ago in this thread rather than where they were supposed to be (the other league thread, of course). Sorry about that.
  11. I don't usually duplicate screenshots by other members, but since we've moved on to another page of the thread and it's kind of a special occasion... With thanks to @jelom whose post of last week's results showed Zerodyme with a fairly pedestrian average of 22.12, which gave me some confidence that he might actually be beatable despite his 3 D3 wins and the 23-level gap. 22.27 for him here, but with a big and likely inefficient rush at the end - with 12 hours to go he was still sat at only 5300-odd points, barely in the top 15. New personal best for me at 22.54, using my usual booster setup with 14 ginsengs and 6 cordyceps throughout the week. Good RNG week though, with something like 20 more points through crits than I tend to get on average, so that wouldn't necessarily have been 22.50+ if we replayed the same league again. Similar winning margin of just over 50 points as in my first league win 4 weeks ago, but this one felt a lot less nerve-wracking. Kind of a weird set of recent leagues for me: win, top 15, top 15, top 15, win. KH players almost all the way here, down to 11th place the only exceptions were HORUS in 5th and WorM in 9th, the two highest-level HC players in the bracket. The best Charm player only finished 12th this week. (And he was the only one up there; 13th to 15th were all KH again, although one of them was using a HC alpha girl...) All in all quite a lucky league draw for me, I guess, with over 40 KH players in total but none of the really big boppers. I suppose the top 4 spots ended up the way one would have expected them to go, at least player-wise if not the exact order. Apparently there was a rush of players trying to get back to D2 after promoting involuntarily due to PoA league play (I guess), as my bracket finished with no less than 20 zero-point scores, and I heard similar things about several other leagues during the week.
  12. Hentai Clicker was recently rebalanced, which has made it hard-to-impossible for new players to reach stage 3000 anytime soon. Consequently the Mizuki promo has been taken offline for the time being. I don't believe there's been any further communication on the issue since these comments by Magrat two weeks ago, so I don't know if/when Mizuki will become available again through a revamped promo.
  13. @DvDivXXX Would you mind re-opening this thread, please? There's some pertinent information which isn't covered by your or natstar's response.
  14. No, it was never officially acknowledged in any way.
  15. The club harmony bonus only applies to harmony derived from level and market stat points, and to direct harmony points from equipment (not via the tertiary stat).
  16. Bump. Today's weekly rewards were again a repeat of those from two weeks ago.

    Ideas Main

    You asked for a way to turn money into other resources, and that's it. Nobody said it would be an option 24/7, nor did you state that as a requirement.
  18. Just out of curiosity, how many distinct artists other than Ben have you recognized so far?
  19. Until today, nobody ever reported getting more than exactly 100 shards from an x10 battle, though, indicating that the obtainable shards were capped. That appears to be no longer the case, based on EpicBacon's 222 (and another drop of 102 that was also shown on Discord earlier today).
  20. Very close decision for the top 3 spots among three of the serial winners, and an excellent 4th place by my clubmate @Daniele narrowly beating out the fourth player with a history of double-digit D3 wins. Fairly on point this week with an average of 20.81 and only 120 points above 16th place. "Thanks" to PoA even more boosting than the previous two weeks with 4.5 days on boosters plus some refilling on Wednesday before reset while I was on legendary cordyceps for the hardest opponents. (The refills paid for themselves though, 266 kobans spent, 300 won.) Total boosters used: 6 legendary chlorella, 6 legendary cordyceps, 2 rare cordyceps.
  21. Technically the judge changes happen one minute after the full hour. Edit: I don't think that's possible (the bolded part), since it's not individual leagues being snapshotted, but rather individual players. That process doesn't always finish in the same amount of time, though it's been pretty consistently between 11 and 13 minutes after the hour on HH.com in recent months. As far as I can tell the updated values appear for all players on the server simultaneously; you can sort of verify that via your current set of arena opponents, some of whom may also be showing new values after that moment.
  22. I have that beat with only 45 Sanita shards from 150 battles. (I was on 13 shards after 2!) Yeah, that's certainly way below average for both of us, should be around 75 shards for 150 combativity.
  23. 101 players here: WorM HC 454 9th place x1 La source KH 449 2nd place x3 Zerodyme KH 447 3 wins HORUS HC 447 1 win OrgeZer0 KH 443 9th place x1 Chacals KH 442 13th place x2 seeh HC 441 18th place x1 fabi37 KH 439 17th place x1 Thaura Master Ch 439 3rd place x1 ... Dmitrii KH 438 1 win jadult KH 438 3rd place x1 Daniel KH 435 2nd place x1 El fornicator KH 430 1 win Pavel KH 421 3rd place x1 Looks like top 4 should be possible here. The low levels: Median 409. I'm one of three players tied for 25th at level 424, which I believe is my highest position to date.
