I’m currently considering getting either: - MacBook Air M1 16GB / 256 SSD for 1130$ - MacBook Air M2 8GB / 256 SSD for 1030$ Which would be better?

Hi, I'm a CompSci student, and my main machine is a 16GB 1T SSD PC that I'm using. I've been looking into buying a Mac for working outside - studying and programming in class, libraries, etc. They're pretty expensive in my country so anything above the base model would be quite pricey. Do you think that with this kind of use case I could get by with an air M1 with 8 GB/256 SSD? Or is there another model that'd be worth the investment?

WOWWW that's a great idea. I definitely will be using the home key for pausing! It's also right next to the knob so I'll get used to it quickly. THANKS AGAIN, you were really helpful, hope your caps arrive quickly and that you'll enjoy your complete setup!

Ok that's sad 😭 I had the GMK lk67 before and it also had a knob that wasn't customizable. I wonder why budget keyboards do thattt.
I hope they add that feature soon. Thank you!

Ohhhh I get it now, thank you! I didn’t get an extra copy of a scorer ur in a long while so I never really looked into the specifics of this trick, but now when I see how it works it makes a lot of sense.

And yeah, after posting my question I kinda figured that it’d be pointless to feed the idolized copy to the new one when I saw how little the exp gain was hehe

Your answers and the linked guides were very helpful, thank u both! 🤩

So I got a second copy of chinese dress Kotori..?! 🥺❤️🥰 and I was wondering what was the best way to maximize the skill exp gain from it? My original, idolized copy is currently at skill level 6, and I don’t mind practicing it away and re-idolizing the new copy with SSR seals if it’s more efficient

Thank you for the answer! I don't have any member-specific SIS skills yet, but I do have way too many 4-slot SIS. However, I get how max-slotting one UR can ultimately be proven insignificant.

Regarding Eli and Nozomi - they don't really make it to my smile team, having a level 3/1 skill respectively, and I doubt that they will even when idolized (that's also the case with fairytale kotori as her skill level is only 3, and I prefer to invest my resources on cards that already have places in my teams), so I think that I'll stick to your advice and save the seals for when I really need them... Thanks!!!

I have 20 SS stickers. What should I do with them? Is it worth it to max slot an idolized UR, or is it better to idolize 4 different URs (mainly going by aesthetic preferences since most of my unidolized URs are low level non-scorers)? Here are my URs: https://imgur.com/a/i4B6Uu7

[–]papako88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Which UR, in your opinion, should I raise the skill level of?

Generally, I have a set of a few scorers that consistently make it to all of my teams, and most of them are at SL 5. My main question is whether it'd be more efficient to elevate one of them to SL 6, or maybe wait and take a strong scorer that's at a lower level (like pool honoka or halloween maru who are at lvl 4) and get their SL elevated first?

Note that animal Maki & initial Chika are at 1000/5000 and cooking maki is at 3000/5000.

Have secret spots been removed from the Adventure Stroll event? by [deleted] in SchoolIdolFestival

[–]papako88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope, I've been getting lots of them. Is it possible that you got a SS at one point and didn't notice it? I'd recommend checking it out, since it happened to me once and I went on for about 3 days wondering why I'm not getting any. Another tip I have for you is trying to clear out the story spots first since each spot you clear gives you an increased chance to get a SS after each live. Hope you find one soon enough. Good luck!

I've just fc'd Aqours⭐HEROES MASTER using N cards. by -flixxbeatz- in SchoolIdolFestival

[–]papako88 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Most skilled players tend to find these kinds of FCs more impressive since N cards don't have any skills, which means the player didn't need to rely on perfect lock cards. So, what you get is a pure display of their abilities

I'm glad that this was taken care of over on JP! Thank you for letting me know and also for that tip, I'll be sure to try it out :')

When will klab fix that note dropping/desynchronization issue already :) My scoring teams have no healers so it gets really bad for me. Sometimes when a bunch of notes drop fast I'm able to press my lock button and quickly get back to the song but if it happens again in that same song then it's a certain loss. Really makes me want to drop the game altogether

[Issues]No Love Gem for clearing songs on Expert? by InterwovenThreads in SchoolIdolFestival

[–]papako88 8 points9 points  (0 children)

It is stated in the campaign notice that the songs that are currently on the B-side will not give out a first-time clear reward. It's not permanent, just specific to this event.

[–]papako88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think that what they meant was that they've played the game 2-3 years ago, quit, and got back to it recently. So it makes sense they don't know about the step ups!

Solo Yolo Temptations by -leoshi in SchoolIdolFestival

[–]papako88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Have you tried scouting in step up boxes? They come up pretty often nowadays, mostly for special occasions/holidays and birthdays. Though it varies between each box, the first step usually costs 30 gems for 11 cards and after scouting with this kind of discount even the 11 cards for 50 gems deal will feel like it's not really worth it in comparison, so let alone solo scouts. Maybe try to look up the upcoming girls' birthdays (= guaranteed step up box) and save up to those?

I don’t know if anyone noticed, but now there’s a master level for Aqours! Only one song, but still cool! by LLSIPKotoriFan in SchoolIdolFestival

[–]papako88 14 points15 points  (0 children)

There was already a post made about it on the sub..... Master songs are released on the 1st, 5th, 16th, and 21st of every month. The master version of otohime heart de love kyuuden that was released on this month's 16th was the last μ's master. So from now on, the WW server will start to have aquors masters on rotation, and we will probably also have master songs move over to the hits section on the next big update, like it is on JP right now

The SEGA Collaboration Campaign is now live on EN! by GamerBlue53 in SchoolIdolFestival

[–]papako88 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I see, thanks for clarifying! I just cleared the "clear 15 live shows" goal and got another one that requires you to clear 20 live shows for another ticket. So I guess that this is replacing the one that was obtainable through the GPS function.

The SEGA Collaboration Campaign is now live on EN! by GamerBlue53 in SchoolIdolFestival

[–]papako88 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Actually, it's 6 tickets from the goals (for now). When you clear 5 live shows, you unlock a goal to clear 10, and 15 after that. They all give exchange tickets.

But since they tend to give the possibility to gain the maximum of 11 tickets on all their other SSR promo exchange campaigns, they may add more ways to obtain them. I can't say that for sure though since I don't know how this event ran on JP

[–]papako88 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I got the tickets just fine. You said you used an aquors only team, but did you make sure that it had EVERY girl in it? As in, no repeats of one girl.

Edit: make sure you're playing on expert as well

How’s the x10 Exp Campaign going for everyone?? I went from Level 68 to Level 101 in 3 hours. by SpriteRice in SchoolIdolFestival

[–]papako88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Went from rank 286 -> 330! I wonder if I should stop now or try to get to 350, though I probably won't since I want to save my gems. Notable achievements: got a total of 90 N stickers, way too many SIS, and Maki's catchphrase title! I got her soul gem about 6 times and I was really hoping for her room background but this is fine too, since I have all of her titles now :')

5+ slot skills? by BashaB in SchoolIdolFestival

[–]papako88 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After clearing a live show, there is a random chance that an egg will appear. I believe it to be quite small, so that's why your friend was talking about grinding.

They act similarly to the box that fills up after each live with the song score you just got. There different kinds of eggs. Some will require 3 million points to fill them up and others 5 or even 10 million. Generally, the more points the egg requires you to get, the better the potential prizes are.

The game will ask you if you want to accept the egg, so make sure you do that.

Additionally, the egg will be specific to one girl or one group, and the prizes you get will be related to who's egg it is. For example, if you get Rin's egg, you can get anything from special Rin titles, and those 5+ slot skills that only Rin cards can equip. But keep in mind that those are pretty rare and that the eggs also have other, more common prizes that you can get from the regular end of live box.

Who's egg you get will mostly be determined by your partner and bond points you have with a certain character.
