  1. I suck at flash fiction, but...eh, I gave it a shot anyway. 

     

    A small girl with thin, gangling arms clutches a pumpkin tightly to her chest as her bare feet patter across the cool grass and up the porch steps, where they come to a stop before a row of pumpkins, ranging in size. Her knees are smudged with dirt and her dress lies in tatters around her thighs, but her hair is twisted up into a neat bun that belies the damaged condition of her dress.

    The girl sets the pumpkin in her arms down and takes a seat beside it, her eyes bright as she looks at the collection laid out across the porch. She runs dirty fingers over the new pumpkin before leaning toward it and whispering "Welcome to my family."

    She picks up a pumpkin carving knife from where it lays on the porch next to her left foot, and after a few moments of running her fingers over the blade, she plunges it into the top of the pumpkin with violent force as images of her real family flash through her mind in dark, stuttering clips.

    A small, stilted laugh comes from her mouth as the knife goes in then out, over and over and over.

    Her mother's voice calls to her from inside, and the girl's movements stop immediately, the knife just a hair's breadth away from stabbing into the pumpkin again. She cocks her head to the side and stands up, wiping her hands--sticky from her pumpkin mutilations--on her dress.

    She nudges the pumpkin with her her foot, face impassive as the top caves in with a splat, and then she turns around and walks inside knife still in hand.

    Completing a run is not meant to advance you in levels. The levels merely determine which rewards you're competing for, and thus spending kobans is the only way to upgrade that.

    Well, that's good to know (though in this case, I feel the feature needs better instructions). But either way, the second run through didn't give me a reward at all, so there's still some sort of bug. Also, I don't even know if the first run through gave me a reward.

  3. So I started this yesterday morning, waited the seven hours for it to complete, and then hit the button to claim the reward. The button grayed out but beyond that did nothing, so I refreshed the page and it started me back at the beginning of level 1. So I started it over. It was still in the middle of it when I went to bed and when I woke up this morning it was like I had never even started it at all. Back at the beginning of level 1 again (didn't even have a button to claim the reward this time). So I've started it for a 3rd time, but I'm not really expecting much by this point.

    Edit: Ignore the part about being unable to level up, but I did at the very least fail to receive the 2nd reward (but also possibly the 1st reward). I did, however, get it the 3rd time.

    I just want to add one thing to what Chthugha and Čamuga said. HC had their 4th 5-star legendary girl before CH got their 3rd. So I think it's fair that they get a little more attention now. After all it's a slow game where a lot of things could take months, so in short term some things could seem unfair, but on overall scale it doesn't really matter enough to worry.

    Actually, it was know-how that didn't get a third 5-star legendary until hardcore got their fourth (Silver Lupa was the fourth hardcore and by that point charm had Fanny & Fione, Taria, and Ombresse; and know-how had Norou and Fabienne) and know-how is the specialty that has yet to get a reappearance since they've started adding a second 5-star girl during Legendary Days.

    There is clearly an imbalance here, so I think it's perfectly fair if some people are upset that out of the five girls that have been reappearances, four have been charm (which was all the charm girls before the second girl was added to these events), one has been hardcore, and zero have been know-how (especially with Fanny & Fione being here for the second time).

    Honestly, it would be super nice if Kinkoid could just have a consistent pattern for both the new 5-star legendary girls and the ones getting reappearances (like new HC with KH reappearance; new CH with HC reappearance; and new KH with CH reappearance).

  5. My luck for this event on HH has been absolutely horrendous. After 317 battles, I still don't even have one girl. Compare that to GH (with 30 fewer battles), where I've just started working on my third guy (I got a 100 shard drop on the 1st guy after getting 33 shards), and the test server, where I'm at about 50% on the second girl.

    I was hoping to come away from this event with Jennie, Arabelle, and Noemy, but at this rate it looks like it'll just be Jennie and Noemy. :(

  6. I am not receiving any points in either the legendary contest or the regular contest, nor is the prize tier that I'm in highlighted, like it normally is. I have won 15 league battles and most of the arena battles I've fought, though I have no idea how many that was, but I should definitely have some points. And I've done 28 fights against Jackson's Crew but that also shows that I have 0 points--plus, while I can't say 100% for sure, I'm pretty sure I DID have points in the regular contest until the legendary one showed up (which was somewhere between 2 and 4pm EST).

    Oh, and for the legendary contest, I've also received experience through the story and through completing all the daily missions (plus what I got from the league battles).

  7. When you compare the two images (your edited version and the original photograph) it's very clear that's not true. That's certainly not paper in the background; it's the background of the photograph with some sort of filter. Even if it what you said were true, when someone compliments things that you had nothing to do with (ex. the posing and facial expression) and you don't correct them and instead thank them and talk about the amount of work you put into it, then you are STILL claiming something to be yours that is not. So either way, you are being dishonest. 

    If you want to edit a photograph of something, fine--that can be considered art too (as long as enough changes are made), but to claim it as a drawing and not even mention the original is NOT okay.

    Nice detective work and good to set me straight, I totally forgot to mention that the last shared images aren't my own but these are my references to learn from and I thought it was a way to get a few more eyes on my own drawings... I don't know what I was thinking, should I remove them?

    Personally, I see no reason to have them here unless you've used one as a reference and you're posting it with the drawing you've made. As it is right now, it's just causing confusion to have them here. Even after you edited your post, someone still thinks you simply redrew the originals.

    That being said, it's up to you whether or not you want to keep them here, though maybe mention they're not yours in each individual post because if someone doesn't look at the post where you say that, it could lead to misinformation.

    But I'm just a rando person who's sensitive about stolen artwork because of issues in the past, so do whatever floats your boat as long as you're not claiming them as your own.

    Well simply redrawing a nice work is also a skill. I don't see why not praise him for it, even if they aren't his original work he still did redrew them well enough.

    He didn't redraw them and that's fairly obvious--not only are the artstyles drastically different, a quick reverse image search brings up the original images, which wouldn't be the case if they were redrawn by him. They're just drawings by other people that he posted here. He's edited his post to say that they're not his, but when first I posted, it was very strongly implied that he had drawn them himself.

  9. I will never understand how people get any satisfaction out of being praised for artwork they've stolen from others. Please stop.

    So out of this new artwork you've posted, the first and third were drawn by Xia Taptara and can be found here and here, respectively. The second one and fourth were both drawn by Rafael Navarro and can be found here and here, respectively.

  10. Haven't updated this thread in ages, which is extremely evident based on the dramatic difference in my art now. XD
