School Idol Festival (Love Live) is now out for iOS/Android in the US!

[Conqueror]

Well, I know Klab has singapore, japan, us, china, and philippines branches, and given that "customer support only handles inquiries in English" jp and cn can be ruled out. us can be ruled out because events regularly start at 4 am est or some godforsaken time like that. klab global website would suggest it's done in singapore, but uh, don't people in singapore speak reasonably fluent english, at least moreso than in the philippines?

[qMyon]

I heard that "KLab has Pinoy devs" again or something. Do they really? owo;I has same question as Juice Colored's. =w=

Well, from the website, KLab Global is based in Singapore. In the About page, they say

"KLab America begins the working process with the conceptualization, planning, and marketing direction for products. With this Western base being a ?melting-pot? of sorts, existent diversity provides for a variety of ideas and models.

The development phase is run by KLab Cyscorpions from the Asian Region. With Japanese management team integrating standards of excellence, KLab Cyscorpions? highly competent and dedicated local staff work tirelessly to release perfect products. From KLab America to KLab Cyscorpions, KLab Global completes the cycle with publishing and market distribution. "

And following the link to Cyscorpions leads to a Phillipines-based company, so, yeah, likely Filipino devs.

[Lloyd Dunamis]

Ooh, OK. I already saw that KLab Cyscorpions in my search before, but for some reason I doubted that it's a Philippine something. I am silly. :v

Meanwhile, a happening in the event ranks:
[attach=1]
It was only the Top3 ones before the event ended, but then top 5 followed suit. Top 4 must've been left out. :v
Anyway, I thought it was cute, them collaborating like that, at least for their names. xD

I started in the event late, still haven't had enough 捕まえちゃう！(Tsukamaechau!), or Cutie Panther. Oh well. >w>

[Massaca]

31782 pts. Rank 321 with pretty much exactly 3000 above the 1000th spot.
19 loveca, 6 level ups. First level up right when it started it from 85>86 lp. 8 loveca at 86, 6 at 87, 5 at 88.

2 draws. Didn't get my Nico but whilst she would've been alright for my team I'm not too fussed. Got a scond yukata Honoka and then the initial Ericchi who is completely useless to me. Oh well.
Need more loveca for the UR Maki draw coming up. Then it's just UR Nozomi mid Dec and UR Nico beginning of Feb far as I can tell I'll be interested at the moment.

[PX]

With Takaramonos here, we finally achieved the difficulty curve. Hard songs will actually be hard now! Can't wait for v2.0 where Takaramonos is the opening song. Also, burd score match next with EX,  Maki UR next, and expected increase cut offs :V

[yuyukos]

expected increase cut offs :V

KLab please, :ohdear:

[Aba Matindesu!]

I don't think anyone'd let me borrow theirs around the convention...and I don't have anyone around playing SIF. ;w; (influential powers not strong orz)

Anyway,there's still tomorrow. I still have time to warm up to the song before I try again.
Score to beat: (score of starred EN person is said to be max combo)

All these familiar names, and that guy is one of them :3

IIRC he got the Nozomi instead of the Honkers.

[Massaca]

I'm really weak willed.

I, uhh...am only familiar with my own mane, sadly. :ohdear:

Wait what, you mean you were there?? Aaaaaa we would've met and given you Deadly Huggles? over the event! @.@

Oh, so maybe they had the choice to pick after all.

[Polaris]

No brand girls EX threw me for a loop since we never had it as an EX song before hand but I managed to pull through and beat everyone else up with the power of my love for idols (lol)

This would be more impressive if I had full combo'd it on my first try but oh well

[PX]

Screw you Klab, increase cut offs or riot

[pineyappled]

Third-year scouting when?

[yuyukos]

Screw you Klab, increase cut offs or riot

We riot now. :derp:

Third-year scouting when?

I think it says the dates in the notice, but there's no guarantee SR on 10+1 year scouting right now anyway.

[hyorinryu]

There's no way to do the versus matching with friends, right?

If you guys use a clock on a website and hit the button at the same time, you can increase your odds but there's no guaranteed way

No, I've been living in the US for over a year now. There are just a lot of players on that list from the rhythm game (read: DJMAX Technika) scene in general. i would've loved free huggles though

Someone page me when JP has a Pure event, there hasn't been one in ages, right?

[Lloyd Dunamis]

Ah, I thought you meant "that guy" as you being one of those in the list. So you were just referring to me then? owo;;

Ack, completely forgot that "Guaranteed SR on 10+1 scouting", but I went and scouted 1st year with 10+1 using my 2nd set of 50 stock Lovecas anyway.
I, uhh...

Meanwhile, I'm enjoying Score Matches for the first time <3. No friendship points while doing it though.
Not liking the No Brand Girls song itself at all. Dat trollish last 3 drum beats tho.xD

Spoiler:

Title: Just break up!

Is there something you don't understand?
Nico sensei will teach you!
Oh, that's it. It's easy. Umm...

Huh? Oh, because of that... Thing!
That! That's why, um, it's like that.

Oh, I don't know why!
Argh!

...Huh?
Oh, that's right, yeah.
That's what I was saying.

Hmph.
Maybe they should just break up. Just break up!

a-amazing

You are literally the best.

[Massaca]

@Lloyd: Hah, nice roll there.

Personally I'm not enjoying this score match that much because

fuck bots

Of 52 Hard plays 19 have had 3 bots, 14 have had 2 bots and 12 have had 1 bot.
So almost two thirds have been bots -_- Just assuming I get bad times.
Also got a third yukata Honoka an hour or two before the last guaranteed SR+ draw ended.

Edit: Wait so you can get cool UR Kayochin even though she's not listed on the scoutable members page?
Huh.
Thinking of trying my luck a few times on the third years draw... if I can get some cards for 25% off.

How can you guys tell people are botting? I haven't seen too many bots, granted, my rank is rather low.

[Massaca]

Not people, it's just "____ Student" with 0 event pts. They fill in empty player slots if the timer runs out.
Unless there are actual botters and I've got the terms there mixed up.

Oh. Didn't know. If people aren't botting, what's so bad about them?

[Massaca]

It's just annoying and kinda boring/less exciting. Especially when they destroy me, lolz. I don't care about losing to people but losing to them it's frustrating. I mean they're not too bad really and I'm sitting just above my expected average (of 230 pts) but it just seems like random chance whether or not they're gunna destroy me >_>

[Aba Matindesu!]

The problem is less "bots" than "people with 9 evolved, fully leveled and fully skilled URs"... which itself was more of a JP problem.

Ah, I thought you meant "that guy" as you being one of those in the list. So you were just referring to me then? owo;;

That guy being Carl, the winner :V

I gathered that their score is just randomized based on how the score of the first person in the room. That's why you'll occasionally see a leaver and 2 bots have 0 while you win.

[Massaca]

So like some random percentage up or down? Now that you point it out it does make sense with the 0/0/0 ones. Just when something like this happens I think "how even?"
[attach=1]

Or the opposite (which has also happened for my Smile team which is about 4000 lower than my Cool and Pure.
[attach=2]

Guess it's just real good/bad luck. They certainly do make me scratch my head sometimes though. "How many UR's Klab?!"
*shrug*  Thinking back on it, it always feels a lot worse than it actually is. Keeping track this time to see at the end.

Edit: @PX that a new draw Maki?

[PX]

Yeah, they do have random points that seem based off a player in the room. They're not actually playing, just random points and combo thrown in to make you feel bad.

ALSO I JUST WANT MY UR MAKI AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
