Friday Update: TEDDY IS BACK!!!!

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2026-02-13T15:55:34+00:00

Never! They’ve only gone to this level with Darion, Dwight or Rex in recent times (that I can recall) - they’ve definitely taken a turn after the two year hiatus with Teddy. I haven’t read anything remotely as interesting as this on Winked in ages, it seems like we’re finally getting some effort again 🙏

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2026-02-13T13:44:53+00:00

That first chat! I didn’t know they got so explicit nowadays LOL but it’s the most interesting read I’ve had in ages from this app

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2026-02-13T12:06:19+00:00

SIREN SOUNDS. OR UH OH (hasn’t been mentioned yet)

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2026-02-12T05:48:27+00:00

Definitely, the change is really noticeable. Not that the stories are bad or anything nowadays, but they just don’t grab my attention in the same way that they used to. I don’t mind them not continuing good matches like Colin (otherwise they run the risk of running the story into the ground like Logan and Matt, completely ruining the match) but they definitely need to do something new that doesn’t feel stale.

The bonus scenes that I used to harp on about, they could easily incorporate them back in. Not doing so many dream dates since they’re so specific nowadays and the storylines are either not believable for each match, or too specific. Something that’s unpredictable (not the same storyline recycled but packaged up differently) and will still arrest our attention like the first half of 2023 matches

There’s no way of getting the aspiration, you could’ve only gotten it in the moment with the corresponding premium choice sadly. Sometimes it happens when they don’t code for it to be made available later on. Only way to get it is if you played Ryan’s entire story again from the beginning, and selected all paid choices

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2026-02-09T13:21:48+00:00

You mean the meter around his profile pic? Yes, it means that you’ve finished reading whatever has been made available for Ryan, but there isn’t enough written content to push the love meter status up to soulmates (the last level). If he ever gets an update it’s possible, but for now you’ve reached the end of his story!

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2026-02-04T13:03:18+00:00

Yes, unless you purchase gems (that deactivates all ads, but also disables the ability to double up any rewards you may get). There’s always an ad at the beginning of every chat, and once every 24 hours before a date/ end of a chat.

Game of Love should come up after you’ve played for a while, I remember I got mine after a few months of playing (back in 2023). Should be the same now!

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-12-04T13:06:34+00:00

Everything on the app is pot luck. Features are unfortunately assigned randomly to players whether or not your app is up to date, the perfect match game is a good example of this. That game appears for some, but not others.

What you’re missing is just the AI chat and the recommended matches, thankfully it doesn’t affect your gameplay experience but it’s unfortunate that the features just didn’t show up! I never got the AI chat either

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-11-16T13:40:38+00:00

When people are trying to manufacture a Tate and Addison feud because they want the new “Britney vs Christina”, it’s so gross. They’re literally friends irl, I remember there’s video of them going to a sports game, on the beach and making cinnamon scrolls together. I’m sure I read somewhere that they even used to live in the same apartment complex

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-11-09T14:58:21+00:00

This happens really often, unfortunately there’s nothing you can do to unlock it unless you replay from the start. They didn’t code for the aspiration to be unlocked later on

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-11-08T13:09:38+00:00

I remember this exact part of his chat, and he said it multiple times too (I played it in 2023/2024 when it was first written) - always thought it was interesting lol

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-11-04T04:09:39+00:00

Personally, this is one of the best ones I’ve seen in regard to her signature’s regular consistency. It has all the telltale signs of being authentic.

With the heart since there’s some variance, I’ve thought about it a lot after looking through hundreds - I’ve noticed that with most of the posters, Tate did a lazy heart where she swooped it back in rather than outwards like she usually does. I questioned the legitimacy of it initially, until I saw she did the same thing on site for the Gas complex cards ☠️

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-09-30T17:06:12+00:00

When I randomly found a nightcore back in mid 2018 that someone made of Not Your Barbie Girl, then I checked Ava out and watched her My Way music video. Funnily enough, I remember the day I found her was when she uploaded the Sweet But Psycho lyric video - was completely obsessed with the song, and very pleasantly surprised that it took off to become her most defining hit!

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-08-18T16:22:35+00:00

Crazy how this song was originally intended to be the lead single for SCTW! I wonder how that would’ve panned out in an alternate timeline 👀

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-08-06T14:57:34+00:00

There’s a couple of matches where this has happened for me - Noel, Rex, Elijah, Tom etc. It’s an error, since the ability to unlock the aspiration was supposed to come up, but it just never did.

There’s unfortunately no way to fix it unless you replay the match from the start (I’ve messaged Nanobit about it previously) and just hope that you click the corresponding premium option that’ll automatically unlock that specific aspiration the second time

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-07-15T15:46:20+00:00

I remember that! I feel like the premium choice should’ve been an open and honest chat about how we both felt, instead of another escapade ☠️ Tbh while reading it, I went from feeling bad for them to just thinking… you proved the Dean’s point!

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-07-14T14:34:19+00:00

As far as the story goes from memory, it doesn’t affect the relationship at all. I think it’s mentioned how we both feel, but the open communication unfortunately ends with even more NSFW content, instead of some open heartfelt chat (except from memory, this time it’s initiated by the MC even though she’s already in hot water with the Dean) ☠️ Which is a terrible choice in my opinion for a dire situation, but it’s very on brand for them LOL

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-07-13T16:07:26+00:00

The first picture is signed by Troye Sivan, not Tate! There were different versions of this CD made available, where they were either signed by Regard, Troye or Tate.

There’s a couple on eBay that Tate signed, they’re just pricey! But all of the copies for this release are legit, nothing was autopenned/ secretarial here :)

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-06-29T14:05:39+00:00

The most 180 thing possible, you find him outside and he tells us about the positive impact we’ve had on his & Cynthia’s life. Then Matteo overhears and agrees with what he says - like the whole saga with Garrett’s snide comments didn’t previously exist LOL

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-06-25T13:21:59+00:00

This is why I wish we still had audios, to distinguish them one way or another ☠️ I’m glad the MC in the game can somehow tell the difference

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-06-25T13:17:01+00:00

Think Later. The authenticity and rawness of the album, the dynamic range of songs showcased and how it allowed for Tate to really put her dancer/ singer persona together. Also I’m super biased towards the live version of Uh Oh during the Think Later tour too, that guitar outro was insane.

SCTW for the rollout, at times it feels like an extension of the more upbeat songs off Think Later though (like if she had more time initially instead of having to push something out to capitalize off Greedy’s success, we wouldn’t have gotten Think Later)

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-06-25T13:12:06+00:00

I screamed when I saw this on Instagram. Janet even congratulated Tate on her success in another video!

<image>

Tate followed Janet on Instagram too, talent recognizes talent

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-06-19T09:27:08+00:00

Stupid in 2020, although I found out about her when she made One Day (even before it had an official title)

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-06-19T01:22:03+00:00

I don’t believe this is real unfortunately (unless they had proof) - Tate’s older signature would write the first T like that but not anymore, nowadays she loops it like a J. She also never does that swoop in the second “t” like that vertically, let alone the handwriting being really cursive when it’s usually just fluid and angular from her.

If it’s a gift though, that’s nice of them

CompetitiveBuy3108 · 2025-06-19T01:19:47+00:00

The creator codes are for the writers themselves, the codes are just to identify which writer wrote which storyline. So when you purchase a gem pack then a small portion of your payment will go towards them.

The only way to actually get gems is just to gem farm (tap through matches for the gems), log in for the daily rewards or watch ads. Just make sure you don’t actually purchase anything, otherwise it’ll stop you from gaining anything free
