Four ex cards so far.
Atlantis Deep, Kelly Collins, Lilly Mays, Shelena.

It seems the SECs have reached their peak.There have been thirteen released each year from 2021 to 2023.This year only ten so far.(I expect two coming soon, leaving one short)

There have been 3 Ex cards though and another one to come.

Personally they have become too expensive for me. There are currently 6 SECs in the store that I don't own and there are 2 of the Ex cards that I don't have.

With the Ex cards it isn't just the cost it is also the convoluted way of obtatining them. It is too boring for me.

make these SEC purchasable (even at 50 credits for example) after a period of time of maybe 1 or 2 years.

Some of the games allow you to get Joker cards. If you play enough games you get a feel for how many credits on average it will cost to get a Joker. So there's no need to really change things if this works for @Totem.

Le FGA400 est la nostalgie de « 2001 » et le FGA402 utilise une bordure noire.

The 1000 credit pack is a much Better Deal.
4 times as many Credits for only 3 times the price of the 250 credits.

Each Credit cost just 9 cents each if you get the 1000 credit pack
so a single card is $2.70 each
You save $0.90 per card. Save 90 cents per card.

if you by the 250 credits, each credit is 12 cents each
a single card is $3.60 each

and then once you reach 10 cards, you become a Silver level member and start getting 10% savings on every card you buy.

make these SEC purchasable (even at 50 credits for example) after a period of time of maybe 1 or 2 years.

If that ever happened,
Members would be demanding their Credits refunded for all the SEC cards that they spent 100's of credits to obtain.

Alissa Foxy is... dangerously sexy. 💖

@P12465 yeah enjoy the journey here, plenty of R&D for you to do here 😉

@astro14 the cashback is indeed one of the better offerings. You can pick the cards you want and yes get the cheapest one of each five you buy for nothing in effect. This offer will end at 9am Paris time, so you don't have long to make use of it.
The Black Friday we have no idea what that is yet, but it will most likely involve more spending, and on possibly cards you might win in a game that you don't particularly want.

..

The matter is very simple. This is most likely one of the systems with which Totem Team will grind out more profits.

Those users who spend a lot of money to get these Cards are the same ones that allow the system to stay afloat and economically stable, allowing the rest of the users to pay "only" 30 credits per purchase.
From this point of view, the system makes perfect sense.

The only change I would make without being "destructive" towards the monetization model currently in use would be to make these SEC purchasable (even at 50 credits for example) after a period of time of maybe 1 or 2 years.
This system would unite the two worlds without excessively damaging either.

Hi! Should I buy 250 credits before next Friday to be able to use the cash back or wait for Black Friday?
Or any other recommendations for a newcomer would be welcome.

Could I please have my account deleted? I have emailed support but also read that it might be better to ask here.
Thanks.

@P12465 , as @Manue said ... Hello and Welcome 😊.
There's a lot to enjoy here 😈 and you have started well.
Have fun.

@P12465 Hello and welcome ❤️ 😎

Hello everybody ;-)

Alissa Foxy is a .... Goddess 😍.
Pure perfection.💕

and Lily Mays is hot🔥

The Silvia Wise one was really really hot. Thanks for the rec!

Definetly both are tops! (and I'd gladly be a bottom for both too!) 🔥💖💕😍

Great shows, all of them! Not surprised at all that these three top the list 😍

I love Alissa Foxy.
I also really like Lilly Mays.

Mina is hotter than ever in this new show ! Rush on your headset and enjoy your journey in her deepest fantasies and pleasure !

Cosplays, costumes and splendid ladies... this top 3 seems so "natural" :)

Once again, Alissa Foxy gets an amazing place in this ranking... such a beauty is just supernatural and she clearly cast a spell on us all!

And what great idea we had to invite Lilly Mays again!
Her performance for Halloween is exceptional and really deserves this second place !
Special mention of the studio crew for the amazing costume and staging work!

Thank you all for your answers!
Believe it or not, I only have the cards I like so far in My Collection. Over 3000 cards selected one by one.
I don't like the hidden part, as long as I only want the cards I like in My Collection.
I only use hiding for the cards that are no longer on the server, so that I don't delete them by mistake.
I would prefer the unpleasant cards to be deleted from My Collection even without the cost being paid back.

The Team puts up the Outfits used in the Production of the cards on an E-bay Auction.
The Auctions last for a couple of days, 2 maybe 3 days.

Here is an Example

They are usually advertised in the Home page in the News.

Comon' give it a spin !

As already stated above:
when you purchase the Advent Calendar, you Pay in advance for ALL of the cards included, Minus any cards you already purchased at the time you added the calendar.
Up till the 24th of December.
But do Not Wait that long.. I would make sure to purchase it by the 23rd to avoid any technical issues that have seemed to happen in past years on the 24th and 25th.

... I'm referring to the fact that I don't want to open a door in the Calendar ...

You DO NOT have to open the Advent Doors, but that Door will automatically be opened before the event ends.
and that card added to your collection.

You can always move a card to the Hidden collection if it's one you don't want to see displayed in your collection.

The main advantage to purchasing the calendar is that you get the SEC released on the 25th only included with the purchase of the calendar.

The Minimum Price is for 24 cards at regular price of 30 credits, or 720 crdits.
Their could be one or two cards at a higher price of 35 or 40 credits, and that will also be factored in to the total Price.

Then you also get your Level Discount.
from 0% up to 50% depending on your current Level.

If you are Free or Bronze level
Then you might want to purchase cards one by one till you reach silver to get your 10% Level discount on the remaining cards.
The same is true if you are just about to Level up and need fewer than 24 cards to obtain the next level.

Also Stated above:
The regular card released on December 1st is NOT part of the Advent Calendar.
The card for December 1st must be purchased separately if you want ALL of the cards from December.

What is in the Calendar?: You will get 25 cards in total. 24 regular cards and the SEC card.
You will receive the 24 cards Released from December 2nd, including the card Released on December 25th.
But because you Own the Calendar, you get to receive these cards one Day Earlier than Non-Advent Calendar owners.

So on December 1st you get the card that will be released on December 2nd. You get it 1 Day Early.
On December 2nd you get the card that will be released on December 3rd. You get it 1 Day Early.
...
On the 24th, you get the card that will be released on the 25th, You get it 1 Day Early.
Then on the 25th, you will get the SEC card.
25 cards in Total for the price of the 24 regular cards.

Can I skip a card I don't like in the Advent Calendar?I'm referring to the fact that I don't want to open a door in the Calendar, so that I don't take a certain card.

Assuming it follows the same format as previous years then no, you cannot skip a card.

Normally the calendar consists of 24 shows (the cards from 2/12 to 25/12) plus the SEC.

To take part in the calendar you have to buy the 24 shows. If you don't want to buy up front you can buy the cards individually and if you decide you want the advent calendar (to obtain the SEC) then the cost of the shows you have purchased will be deducted from the balance you have to pay. If you do this it is prudent that you do not leave until the last minute as it may not be possible to rectify any technical glitches that may prevent your transaction from completing.

If you don't open a particular Window then the card will automatically be added to your collection at some point. This is so people who are away during the holiday do not miss out on the cards they have purchased but are unable to open at the time.

Also please note that the card officially released on the 1/12 is not part of the calendar and has to be purchased separately. The card for 2/12 will be released on 1/12 for those that purchase the calendar.

Can I skip a card I don't like in the Advent Calendar?

Nope, you buy the whole calendar, 25 cards. Open a door and I think they start downloading immediately.
You will not know who until you open the door, unless you do what Number6 has done and note all the dates.

And we have a Black Friday and probably another EX card to get through before then I think.

Can I skip a card I don't like in the Advent Calendar?

I am not a fan of the Special Event Cards.
However I look at like going to a bar and shots of vodka are half price. An offer is there, but since I don't like vodka, I will pass.

I do love my beer though.

I forgot about the "least expensive will be refunded" rule. Makes sense then :) Thank you for your quick answer!

@Morritz89I think you should have like an opportunity to just buy a joker card once or twice a yearThis feature exists : sometimes in the year, you can buy Joker card with the Babydolz you own with your seasons of NFTs. Just check the annoucements of the team.

Well that's not exactly fair on those of us who don't use/don't want to be a part of NFT's.

Although I would prefer even more to just have the concept removed as a whole :D

Same here.

Just been looking at the Coming Soon and currently the releases are scheduled for 1 per day including Saturdays and Sundays so this would seem indicative that there will be an Advent Calendar as this is the normal release schedule for the Calendar.

EDIT

This refers to the current releases scheduled for December not the November releases.

No problem then, @EverthangForever. Just a suggestion.

I, for one, will continue to include both framed and unframed scenes.

Obviously it's important that you take all PC performance into account.

Thank you very much. Keep up the good work. 😊


Pas de problème alors, @EverthangForever. Ce n'était qu'une suggestion.

Je vais pour ma part continuer à inclure les deux scènes avec et sans cadre.

Évidemment il est important que vous teniez compte de toutes les performances de PC.

Je vous remercie. Continuez votre excellent travail. 😊

@ComteDracula

Quelle est la performance informatique du membre moyen ( ?) aujourd'hui est une question très intéressante.
Par le passé, je me suis appuyé sur des membres tels que vous, @Philours et @DANO70, pour me guider sur les shaders à rejeter dans les scènes, car ils peuvent être trop exigeants pour les systèmes moyens dans la mesure où ils affectent les performances du modèle.

J'ai remarqué que certaines de @Calgon scènes provoquent des bégaiements des modèles sur mon ordinateur et c'est avec moi n'utilisant que des cartes 3K et non 4K.

Je me demandais si, dans les futures éditions, vous pourriez inclure les mêmes scènes avec et sans cadres, pour ceux qui n'ont pas de problèmes de performances.

À l'heure actuelle, je suis ce que @TheEmu faisais, c'est-à-dire : (taille réduite / bordures noires) mais son PC était encore moins puissant que le mien aujourd'hui. Avoir deux vignettes identiques dans ma page de scène peut causer plus de travail et dérouter les utilisateurs.
~~~
@ComteDracula

What is the averge member's computer performance (?) today is a very interesting question.
In the past I have relied on members such as yourself @Philours and @DANO70 to guide me regarding which shaders should be rejected in scenes because they may be too demanding for average systems to the extent that they affect model performances.

I have noticed some of @Calgon 's scenes cause stuttering of the models on my computer and that is with me only using 3K not 4K cards.

I was wondering if, in future editions, you could include the same scenes with and without frames, for those who don't have performance problems.

At this time, I am following what @TheEmu used to do ie: ( reduced size / black borders ) however his PC then was even less powerful than mine is today. Having two same thumbnails in my scene page may cause more work & ***** users.

Thanks @EverthangForever.

All the scenes work well for me. I've kept the scenes with the frames, but I've also included these same mofified scenes without the frames, since on my PC, these work fine.

I was wondering if, in future editions, you could include the same scenes with and without frames, for those who don't have performance problems.

Although for my part, I have no problem modifying them myself.


Merci @EverthangForever.

Toutes les scènes fonctionnent bien pour moi. J'ai gardé les scènes avec les cadres, mais j'ai aussi incluses ces mêmes scènes modifiées sans les cadres, vu que sur mon PC, ces dernières fonctionnent bien.

Je me demandaient, si dans les prochaines parutions, vous ne pourriez pas inclure les même scènes avec et sans les cadres, pour ceux qui n'ont pas de problème de performance.

Bien que pour ma part, je n'ai pas de problème à les modifier moi même.

@Morritz89

Although I would prefer even more to just have the concept removed as a whole :D

Completely agree

@stefnev1

This feature exists : sometimes in the year, you can buy Joker card with the Babydolz you own with your seasons of NFTs. Just check the annoucements of the team.

... and for us who only use iStripper?...
As the team has said several times, BabyDolz is a totally different product from iStripper, so it doesn't seem very fair to me not to give this possibility to us too...

Hi team,
just wondering if there are plans for a 2024 Advent Calendar.
I always look forward to one of those every year!
Thanks in advance.
