You want the gift codes, but only want them when you want them, and where you want them.

A day before is too early.

Too early, and you complain, worrying that you might forget.

You complain about multiple notifications, which verify the code (despite worrying you might forget).

There'll be multiple notification regardless, and not from me.

Can't please everyone.  Too much bureaucracy.  The complaints contradict the complaints.

I didn't bring it up for my sake. It won't matter where you post the premature codes for us forum dwellers. We'll find them. 😜The Gift Code thread is used by regulars and casual visitors. They use the forum on their own ways. Let's make it as friendly as possible.

Not sure which mod is supposed to have posted a dupe code? Not me, I don't think.

Ravi, I think it's fine for you to post the code in advance, but ideally here rather than in the Gift Thread before it's confirmed to be active. I have no issue at all with not knowing what the reward is initially, and then I can add it by editing the post once it's know, as I've done many times.

My main issue with posting them in advance in the main Code thread is that sometimes a code will show "not yet valid" but never become valid, either by going straight from that to "doesn't exist" (replaced by a different one, usually) or it simply sits forever as '"not yet", as a euphemism for "Soon TM".

For instance, I've noticed this one about 3 months ago (it's a French porn game link/review site that already has a banner for HH), and it's still "not yet" valid:

image.png

I'm still checking regularly because when/if it does become valid, it should be one of those big koban codes as we had with a few other partner sites in the past. But I haven't bothered posting it (until today) because it's not useful now and I can't even be sure it'll be useful someday or it's just a typo and it should say "expired".

It's just the somewhat predictable but not always nature of the redeem codes Kinkoid comes up with that makes me a bit reluctant to bump the thread early for codes that may or may not end up working.

In any case, I feel this isn't as big a deal as some seem to perceive it as in this discussion.

And to be extra clear: Players bumping the Gift Code Thread for no good reason, including for reposting the code that's right there in the post above the one they make (as I've had to remove 3 times lately, further to Ravi early posts) are the ones not paying enough attention and bothering every follower of the thread with an unnecessary bump. I wouldn't blame it on Ravi if people can't read and/or think before they make a dupe post. And this kind of things keeps happening regularly, though not as often as it used to. Ravi's recent early posts didn't change that trend at all.

To be honest, I'm more surprised (and a bit disappointed, even) that people give Likes and Thanks to such reposts instead of booing them or reporting them to us mods:

Spoiler

Edit: If you're even more curious about the process: the first bumper after Ravi at least brought some additional info to the thread (which I credited him for by quoting him in my edit of Ravi's post), so I hid the post to avoid clutter but I didn't give a warning. That's typically what we do with this type of posts. The second bumper however, was just a pure repost and thus got a warning.

I'm not sure if some people are fishing for Likes with these, but it's a bit puzzling that we still have to enforce this common sense rule even after years of reminding folks of it regularly (and removing the reposts and other unneeded bumps every time).

To be fair to @raj1993, drwho post was hidden hours before his. He probably thought he was helping by revealing the gift. His post was the one I first read about the gift. This is one of the reasons why I think that premature codes are better posted elsewhere.

Sorry i didn't noticed that it was confirmed before mine. My bad. I will try to be careful next time.

Btw, that was my first post in the thread, and i got a warning for that 😅😅😅

Edit: @DvDivXXX after reading your post and seeing the screenshot you attached i think it was a misunderstanding, not totally my fault, because you hid the previous post, so i couldn't make sure it was a double post.

I did hide the previous extra post, but not before I made my edit to Ravi's post, adding the info. So Ravi's post was then complete: it had the code, the gift and, de facto, confirmation that it works. No further post was needed. The post yours was a duplicate of what Ravi's, not drwho's.

Anyways. Thanks for your consideration.

PS: @OmerB Troll post not approved. If you haven't guessed the code is available in the relevant thread (or seen it in my screenshot above), I don't know what to say. ^^

Something I learned a few months back is that some of these codes are only intended for new players and they don't work if your account is more than a number of days old (maybe 2 weeks, don't recall exactly). The error message older accounts get wasn't very accurate although I don't recall that exactly either. I think it was either 'expired' or 'not yet valid'.

Quite possibly you know this already, but just in case...

Please approve my post on CxH's legendary days thread.

Dude, please understand that mods get around to the approval queue when they get around to the approval queue. There's no need to ask me to approve specific posts. I'm notified whenever anyone whose posts must be approved by a mod before they appear makes a post attempt. Getting through them is part of my routine, when I do my routine.

Also, I don't actively moderate the CxH forum. That's mainly Finder's thing, and I think he's the only forum mod left who still plays CxH. He's away for now, so there's less manpower on that forum. I keep an eye on it just for big problems, but I don't moderate it tightly as I do HH EN. Regardless, your intended posts for CxH end up in my approval queue anyway.

Cheers.

I didn't know. All of these big koban codes were made primarily to attract new players, but the ones we got our hands on so far were usable on any account. This makes me curious; almost enough to make a test account and see if that code works on it. ^^ Thanks.

This actually does make sense, and it solves most of the problems.  I'll try to do it this way from now on.

Alright, I'll take note of that uber koban "JeuxPornoEnLigne" code, just in case, lol.

I figure if the code is one directly related to a future event, it's likely to be legit, and gift something.

The next one I'd try is legcontest#34, on March 19th.

There used to be a code for KC too. I think no one figured one out in awhile (either that or they stopped making them). Here's a list of past formats that have been used, in case it inspires you to try and guess the current one:

KC: kinkycumpetition21, #kinkycump24, kinkycum31 etc.

There was a huge cry about this event, but compare it to MD or LD -

MD and LD are stupid events, where you click as much as you can, without thinking much, and you need to burn thousands of kobans in addition in order to get the girls, but we got used to it.

On DP, you can get the girl without using any kobans, just using your natural gain of resources carefully.

I got the girls on all three games on DP on the 3rd day (24-48 hours before the event end), almost without using kobans, just by using my natural gained resources carefully. I never got any LD girl on the other hand (only got few recently with SM coins).

So in my opinion, DP is a much better and more interesting event than LD (where in both you can get 5* legendary girls), while I get other types of goodies in DP. It is true that on LD you can just relax and do some villain fights now and then, while on DP you need to be more alert and on-line.

The matter is what game you're looking for, one that you can open for 10 minutes twice a day, or one that you actually play.

DP >> LD

Mod edit:

This was an attempt at a necro spell on early February's DP event thread. And no, thank you. Not allowed and very unnecessary. Cheers. Div*

Edit: Ok @DvDivXXX, this thread suits this post, although I thought that original DP thread suited it better.

If by DP you mean the Double Penetration event, yes, I agree.  Yes, it does require careful management, but we are largely flying blind without being able to see what the next task is (unlike with PoA).  I managed to get Lora last time, more by good luck than good management, but next time I'll follow your hint and be a lot more careful.

Legendary Days is worth participating in because of the chance of getting one of those prized x100 drops.  Every LD event I've managed to get a girl in this way in at least one account.  As for MD, I simply can't persuade any of these oh so gorgeous girls into my harem which makes me the Eliott Rodger of the Haremverse.  I don't even bother to participate any more.

I get your point, but if we're talking about just getting the first "free" L5 girl, then it's valid.  But 7.2k kos for the "premium" L5 is more expensive than an LD, and almost as much as an MD.

It's true that the DP's difficulty went down, once I knew which resources to hoard in advance, after stumbling the first day.  It also became easier on the other two games CxH and PSH.  I was able to get the free L5s despite being a below lvl 200 noob.

The problem is it alternated w/ the Boss Bang, which actually costed nothing for an L5. The DP costed as much as a PoA w/o any notice, and required a lot more time invested, than 100 clicks.  It was jarring to F2P players, that didn't have it in their plans, or koban budgets.  Now, I'm missing an L5 from a surprise event, that I couldn't prepare for.  Melodic Amelia, who happens to have rare black eyes too.  She didn't appeal to me, but there might be a premium girl that I like in the future.

The randomness of it is also a problem, which was thoroughly detailed in that thread, about the same tasks appearing over and over, even if skipped, causing progress to be locked for a day.

What's better? Getting it over with cheap, quick, and cleanly (Boss Bang), or spending all of your resources, and getting frustrated over slow progress (Double Penetration), for the same L5?

I suppose I like it more than the PoA, PoV, and PoG, all of which I skip.  At least the girls are L5s, and useful.  That's why I'm planning in advance to have enough kobans, if I like the girls.  MD girls take priority of course.

The next DP should start on April 10th, about 3 weeks from now.

The time has come. My second year is over:

 

image.png.d3726fc58541088c62b8271fa34af6c4.png

  • + 97 player level (due to recent changes the progress is much faster now)
  • + 474 girls: much more in the first half of the second year, the progress after the PoP change (less orbs) and a dramatically reduction in girl drop rate in pachinko the progress is slow now (for my last 3 girls in mythic pachinko I needed 500-600 orbs, I'm not tracking this very accurately)
  • 10 mythic girls, but I changed my focus to get every mythic girl now (hard but I hope possible). Annoying is that I only managed to get 99 shards for Finalmecia and I'm happy if she finally has her comeback
  • constantly in Top 15 D3 now. My best result was a #3
  • reached lvl 700 with the first mythic girls today

Another year past. Time for some personal statistics after three years. I think I have achieved a good progress.

 

image.thumb.png.4faae97a6d06905851c27b3d3620738e.png

  • finally reached lvl 500 somewhere after 2,5 years
  • +455 girls. Epic pachinko is cleared which offers some strategic advantages
  • like mentioned last year my plan was to focus on mythic girls, after some time also on the L5* girls.
  • I have now 26/28 mythics. I failed with Moe Bunny during her revival and she is waiting with 97 shards. At least from koban perspective I can consider her as done. My biggest miss is still New Year Estelle
  • I have 113/129 legendary 5* girls. The biggest source for the missings ones are the seasonal events and legendary days. LD's are not a real problem because we have those revivals and at the moment I focus also on them so I should be able to catch up. Seasonal Events are just not possible for F2P
  • I progressed in D3 and end up pretty often in Top 4 which is important to follow my plans in catching up with the strong girls
  • I also managed to score a few D3 victories
  • every world boss has reached its max stage. There are still some girls missing but leveling up the trolls took a really long time. At least now I can work on the girls in times we have no events or events without girls (which is often not the case)

Looking at the girls level/gem usage I have following situation:

  • 59 L5* have lvl 750
  • 23 mythics have lvl 750. I just wait for a good opportunity to level up the other 3
  • I always have an eye on the weekly blessings to level up the most needed girls more or less instantly. Usually I have good teams every week
  • the script says this is my current gem need to level up all the 5* and 6*. So quite a big amount is still needed and the 5* are coming in pretty fast lately
  • image.thumb.png.b2b47701f2c324a818aea122274159d7.png

Looking at mythic equippment this is still a weekpoint. Leveling up a few sets would be no problem. I have so many items and enough money (I stored items after the first signs for needing them to level up items were shown - I think my first mythics were leveled up with lvl 375 equippment), but I get only a few per month so this is a problem

  • 46 in total
  • 14 fitting to my class. 4/6 from my current set provide me an attack bonus 
  • I had an eye on it if it is worth to switch my class, but that is not the case at the moment.

Next plans are pretty obvious

  • getting all mythics (hopefully we see a better revival mechanism)
  • getting more of the missing 5* legendary
  • leveling up more to 750
  • have a full mythic set with attack bonus
  • finally catch up with the story to the latest chapter (I did not focus on it, so I'm still behind)

I'm puzzling over where to place this, so I decided to put it in Chit Chat...

As I mentioned in the EP thread, in my Peregrine Took account I have recruited all currently available haremettes from EP.  Furthermore, I have no more girls to rescue from villains (except to waste my time and/or kobans on trying in the current Mythic Days revival).

Currently, I have four more level increases (or 40 more villain performances) to get the chance to try for Kioko from Karole so I think I'll take this route.  At least I might get a few handy gems in the meantime.

One thing really puzzles me though... Recruitment from EP in two other accounts is, frankly, awful and I have yet to get any of the available five-star legendary girls from these accounts, in my case, Sia Siberia, Amouranth and Nikki Benz (the last not recruited in one of them).  Just how random is the RNG?  And does it also include one's account over the entire duration of an event?  Take classic and Orgy Days events... For Orgy Days, for example, in one account I might recruit a girl within two days, but fail to recruit any of the girls over the 5 available days in another.  This has happened for as long as I can remember.  In the next event, there's often a swap around with the previously poor performing accounts now becoming good to average recruiters and the previously well-performing accounts now becoming awful.  This lasts for the entire duration of the event.  I might be a conspiracy theorist here but it does seem odd.

Yeah. Because you're not looking at what is actually happening, you're telling yourself a story based on little chunks of it that make no sense taken out of the context of the whole.

Random is random. Your lucky streaks and your bad runs are all part of the same continuous thing. Events or any other specific limited sample are not individual stories with a beginning and end. If you want to measure these things correctly and see the bigger picture, you need to zoom way out and check all your results over months, indiscriminately. The longer you do that, the closer it will get to the expected average. Differences between your accounts or from event to event will disappear as you notice the variance in your results don't match either lens and transcends both.

Cheers.

The EP drop rate used to be 8%, and then was halved to 4%.  Is it possible the account that has cleared the EP might've been older, benefitting from a drop rate twice as high, than the other accounts?
