Hello dear Agnostica citizens (are we "Agnosticians"?)Once again, thankyou for finally starting something up for dome discussion. As for the "Agnosticans",,,,,I have a lil something in mind to spark some debate on such matters coming up :DI'm sorry that there is so little attention and I myself had cut back forum time to be able to keep up the daily bimbo duties while real life demanded more time. I really like the idea to keep a wish list, but I am a little discouraged as to what actually will be done with it. My most important wish at the moment was posted by someone (maybe Ex Machina?) in the suggestions thread and actually I saw it several times: Reset all counters at the same time preferably midnight. Maximum of reactions to other bimbos and games take 24 hours from your last one and thus you start to miss opportunities because you cannot use them exactly the same time each day.
Secondly: I'd really wish for the achievements to be reworked, as numerous bimbos have pointed out, that some are ridiculously hard (funky gold) and some impossible to reach (diva gold, hipster gold).I had a couple more things in mind, but cannot recollect them just now.
You have to buy to get it to up, not just change it with something in inventory.
Going way back, when you bought some non-clothing things (may have been all non-clothing, I don't recall for certain, but I know hair and make-up) at the Beauty Parlor or hair dresser, it did not stay once you changed it to something else in a slot. So, if you changed your hair on an outfit, the hair was gone for later (not actual inventory), you did not retain it. if you had it in an outfit in another slot, it stayed there, but once you replaced it in a slot it could not be re-applied later without purchasing again. Then, some time a fair bit back, it was made so that when you bought something you kept it...which is nice. The problem was the prices were way too high to start out. it was probably 8 or 10 times what it is now...so spending 6500 on one hair style was the norm.
For some of us that have been around a while here we were obviously set back by this some....it took some time to tweek the pricing and such...but it got done. before that happened, it seemed that many, including myself, would get in the habit of setting up slots based on make-up and hair. so you would have all your slots with different looks in that area, and then dress around it. It was simply too expensive to do otherwise, and before that you didn't want to have to re-buy it later. Those two eras in the game are probably why you see lots many long-time players lacking those achievements when they have piles of other ones...habits from the old systems/eras of either it was not a permanent inventory item or it was very expensive.
For me, it has only been recently that I have started buying more of these...breaking my old habit. I have purchased hair and tattoos a couple days ago, and those achievements did indeed go up. I just purchased make-up and that did indeed go up. No, simply swapping it out with something from inventory will not increase your achievement...you need to buy something. it is old wording from the original system, and it should probably be updated. There are a few achievements that need updated wording actually.
SHAKER: go X times to a party
...this should be have FUN at the night club, or the night club should read to party instead of "Have Fun"
HIPSTER: make yourself X tattoos
...should probably say 'purchase X tattoos'
FUNKY: change hairstyle X times
...should probably say 'purchase X hairstyles at the hair dresser' if fringes and tufts count towards the achievement (pretty sure they do) then the wording should be changed to make that clear as well
DIVA: change make-up X times
...should simply say "purchase make-up X times" Perhaps better would be something like "Purchase X beauty/cosmetics products from beauty-parlour" seeing as there are 6 sub-sets in there now, each of which count towards the achievement.
I guess you could say at one point when you got your hair done it was actually like going to the salon...once you changed a slot to some other hair look, the old one was gone. Make-up was the same.
hope that helps and also provides some history on why it is all worded a bit confusingly (it made sense at one time with how it is worded now). Hopefully, some new wording will be used to clear it all up.I think this is but a small snippet of a grander issue....but hoping it can help get some discussion going
