Todays Atributes For Ring Fantasy Are Gorgeus And Pure

We won the war last time and we'll win it again this time with the power of edgelords and teenage rebellion ÙwÚ

I have a feeling that the "bad guy" team is going to win in this event

The bad guy team always wins because they’re “hot” or something sksksks

I borrowed @sanctuaryofstars for this image because we were having some late night LN conversation

The original caption I wanted was "Me and the crew getting our magical girl powers so we can go save Flynn Love Nikki" but obviously that was not gonna fit. Curse you Love Nikki and your 50 character limits.

So anyway slightly off topic but I finally got enough shimmer stones to finish Orlando's dream weaver and

when is the boy coming home;;;; when will Flynn return;;;; save our boy;;;;;

Please

Hey

What the fuck?

Is this Volume 2??

This is just flat out attempted extortion at this point. I really miss the older days of LN when you could get a suit for 800 diamonds, we had actual breaks in between events, and even a new V0 player could afford to play them. Nowadays I just feel... really bad for new Love Nikki players who have no idea how expensive this game has really gotten.

The fans are on fire and, I mean, tho I usually understand the devs' actions this one time they've kind of earned the backslash.

The Adventures of Unamused Boy part 7-1

Wow I'm still trying to do this, huh? Yep. Yep I am. Anyway here we go. Part 7.

Also I am confused as to why my nikki doesn't show up as my avatar in my own style diary anymore buuut whatever

Also also this is 7-1 because I wanted to post the captions seperately from the full images as seen below but hey guess what image limit yay

So this part will be in two parts and from now on I'm not doing this again because tumblr is picky

Also for a 3rd also the 50 character limit in SC is killing me

we all in that struggle nikki

Yes

Join us we shall take home victory once more

@maplesweater and I talking about how to prepare for the war.

Join the night order. We have Sephora and teenage rebellion!

Okay so I am really disappointed with how the dawn front event went down. I am not „horny“ for shade and i find it dumb that salty players reduce us to that. You’re freaking ace and I’m on the spectrum too. We’re not salting about people for picking their queen kimi either jeez. Let people allow to pick characters they want, its not hard.

Ya know what me too

((RANT INCOMING BOIS))

Like I'm sure there are some people who picked Flynn bc "he's hot" to them-and don't get me wrong that's perfectly fine-but just assuming that's the only reason anyone would ever pick said character is just honestly kind of rude to everyone who chose him. As if he doesn't have his own story, personality, motivations, etc. that might make him an appealing choice to players. No he's just an edgy uwu animu boi fangirl bait design right?

Thing is we're only having this discussion because we won. If the majority of night order players flocked to Shade but the dawn wings ended up winning no one would give two shits about who chose Flynn or why. Lemme tell y'all something. I chose Flynn because as an aspiring author I found all of the good guys boring and stealth has always been my shit. Yes all of them. Louie is barely a character as of right now, Orlando is fine but he's so typical morally just man in a suit. Kimi is overrated imo and don't even get me started on Bai Yongxi. I know we have a dreamweaver for this guy but I still feel like I've never met him before. So then, what about the night order? We barely know Reid and the guy he teamed up with so that choice was out for me, and Nidhogg's abrasive personality just wasn't doin it for me personally.

Who does that leave? Flynn. Shade. The secret weapon. The assassin with two names.

Ever since I was young I've always found sharpshooters, assassins, ninjas-basically anyone who could outsmart their opponent with not only tactics but agility and speed-cool. I'm a small girl and I was never very strong, so that kind of thing was the kind of stuff I idolized-and part of what lead me to develop my aesthetic the way I did. THAT's why I picked Flynn. It was my personal opinion and preference.

Do I expect anyone to know that? Of course not. Only my close friends know about my childhood. However, I'm not the only person who picks characters based on things other than "how hot I find them," clearly. I'll admit, Flynn's character design is aesthetically pleasing to an edgelord like myself. But if that was the only reason, I'd just go with anyone who remotely resembled that sort of style.

Not to mention the psychological aspects of it all. Morally grey characters are always more interesting from a psychological standpoint, as they present as more human-more relatable to the average person.

I'm getting a little bit off topic but my point is that there's more than one reason Shade won the war. Something else I need to mention is the pre-war salt.

All over the facebook, amino, reddit, etc. before we even got the event implemented were people salting about losing last time and making passive aggressive comments about how they'd lose to " Shade's thirst army" again. Now I had already made up my mind to choose him again, but think for a second about how a new player would feel seeing all that. Do you really think new players would want to join a team full of passive aggressive people who can't let the fact that their fave lost essentially a fictional popularity contest go after a full year? Because I sure as hell wouldn't. That's an extremely unwelcoming environment right there.

So what do I have left to cover? The morality speeches? Yeahh.....

So listen. I saw this mostly on the facebook, but I'll mention it here.

Fiction and real life are two separate things. People are allowed to like problematic charas so long as they understand that said chara is in fact problematic. Supporting a character who's done morally wrong things does not mean said person supports said morally wrong things. If you sit there and try to guilt trip people who just wanted to pick their favorite character in a fictional event that effects nothing ever because they like a specific character and tell them that means they support murder or whatever, I'm sorry but you need to go back to elementary school or something because that's not how anything has worked in the history of things working.

Now with all this said I want to stress that not everyone is like this of course. There are people who remained silent. There are people who know how to make jokes about their loss, and I thank those of you who have done so-you're bridging the gap, my friends. Of course I don't believe everyone is like this. But the sheer amount of people degrading others and belittling them because of a character preference both pre and post event is astounding.

In the end this whole event was basically just a popularity contest. And you know what I see? I see people who can't handle that not everyone shared their character preferences. I see people who don't understand that just because someone favors one character over another doesn't mean they automatically hate the other character. I see people who are so petty that they'll go out of their way to make excuses as to why they lost. Yeah, it was a population imbalance. But you know what? That's just how it happened. If the population imbalance had favored Kimi, or Orlando, or Bai, or Louie, would we be seeing this level of garbage? No. This event effects nothing. Not the story, not real life, nothing.

But you know what does? Unbearable amounts of salty people pointing fingers and yelling "thirst" to the point where I've started to wonder why I got involved in this godforsaken community in the first place. Let people enjoy their dressup game, ya watery salt cubes. You'll get another chance next time around, and I'm just saying-maybe you'd do better if you focused a bit less on yelling about how it's other people's fault you lost. Yea, losing sucks. But in order for there to be a winner, someone has to lose. That's how competitions work.

I feel like I had more points but I'm just so done with this garbage. Whatever. Point is let people like the characters they like instead of getting salty that everyone doesn't worship Kimi as much as you do. It's not that deep.

I'm done here. This stupid. Sorry to anyone who isn't contributing to this who had to see this. I appreciate you. So much. Oh and by the way, I have nothing against Kimi stans, so long as y'all don't do this kinda shit. Everyone has the right to have whatever character be their favorite no matter which one it is.

Me and my one diamond vibing waiting to see what the devs are gonna throw out next

Alright y'all I've seen enough people complain about this by now it's starting to get annoying

Yes, we all know these two skin tones are exactly the same. And I'll admit, I was upset about it too when I first saw it.

So why have it? Why did they give us this useless skintone?

Simple, suit completion and server demands.

We all know that the skin warm ray is exactly the same as this new skin. But what some people forget, I think, is that warm ray is already part of a suit, and therefore can't be applied to another. What does this have to do with anything? I'm sure you've noticed by now that there's no default skintone makeup in this suit, which is something people have been asking for; dark skin exclusive suits and makeups.

Well, if they wanted to be able to give the dark skinned makeup and only the dark skinned makeup as the server keeps begging for, they'd need to be able to give it in the default pose version without it looking like Nikki's doing blackface or something. So they'd need a skintone for it.

So then, they could just make it a new skintone, right? Wrong.

If they did that, people would complain because there's a high chance they'll never use it again, like they did with the suits that go with hacker's secret and heart of ghost.

Guys, they're trying their best, here. But there's no way to give only the dark skinned makeup and have it versatile with preexisting skintones unless they do this, or don't give a default pose version at all. Otherwise, they'd have to go back to giving the default skintone as the default pose version and have the dark skinned makeup be a completion prize again, which many people complained about.

I'm in no way on the devs' side about a lot of things, but this one case in particular just feels kinda dumb to me.

Anyway thank you for coming to my TED talk. Please, let's just all enjoy Barbie's birthday celebration event in peace? This is our first ever collab, and we should just try to enjoy it. Having an extra "useless" skintone ain't that deep.
