The long-prophesied day has come. Today I'm announcing a shift in the way Fuwanovel works. It's the big "leadership overhaul" I've been referring to, and hopefully it makes working on the site better for everyone. At the least it'll mean project leaders get more control and autonomy so I'm not in their way as often. We have a lot of projects going on in the community. Some are personal, which we're not going to touch, but others are done by or for the Fuwanovel community: social media, the blog, moderators, reviews, etc. Today's changes focus on that second category: projects which are meant to be by the community (like an official project) or for the community. I'm going to call them FuwaProjects for clarity's sake, to distinguish them from personal projects (which aren't co-opted into this program at all). The Short Version: The big change is that FuwaProjects are going to be made a lot more autonomous, and representatives or team leaders from each project will be gathered together in a board here on the forums called the "Leadership Council" (LC). The purpose of the LC is to give each other updates and feedback and discuss relevant site issues before any big decisions are made by myself and any relevant project leaders. If you are part of a project you consider a FuwaProject and it's more than a short-term effort, you are more than welcome to PM me (Tay) and request access to the LC. All project leaders are considered equals on the LC. Nobody pulls rank on anybody else, and discussion is meant to be constructive (since, after all, you can't force a project lead to run the project your way). The primary oversight over a project leader will essentially be me: we'll have periodic check-ins to refine the project's direction, goals, and reasonable activity requirements. The FuwaDirectory will list all of the active projects and project leaders on the site so you know what's going on and who to contact about it. A few more minor details if you're interested: There will be a few jobs in the LC itself to help it function well and make coordination more effective. These are being finalized, and will be included in the FuwaDirectory. I will continue to maintain a controlling vote on community affairs. If the day comes that this changes or I leave the site (on my own or by request), the community will be notified and any changes to site leadership structure will be explained publicly. Global mods are also part of the LC. As part of this change, GM rulings on rule-breaking and respect violations will correspondingly hold more weight. Appeals to the best-two-out-of-three GM rulings will generally be the last word on the matter, though GMs can elect to pass an appeal to me, instead. Final Note: The "Leadership" part of LC refers to the fact that those on the LC are community leaders -- they're running the projects making the community what it is (and making it better). It's not a decision making body, exactly, but it's meant to be the hub of site direction and planning. In the past we often confused the distinction between the real and on-the-ground community leaders, and the badges assigned by our forums software (like the "Admin" badge under my avatar). We need a paradigm shift: forums badges do not a site leader make. The FuwaDirectory shows all the folks working on Fuwanovel, and each of them deserve a corresponding amount of respect. Thanks for your time! Feel free to let me know if you have any questions or problems.4 points

So, I've been awake the past 36 hours. After saving the day, I need a rest. I will most likely see you all tomorrow. Hopefully Tay will come online to confirm the victory soon enough. I feel like we have a near-guaranteed victory but there's always the possibility someone or another will try and pull something on the senator's side, depending on how severe the vagueness of the rules caused us to head into other directions. But, I need to rest. Good day!3 points

School Days HQ
RickAshayz and one other reacted to SoulJustIn for a topic
School Days HQ Summary In the school the three people met. Their relation had been changed in the season, and turned into three love stories. Makoto has been admiring a girl he has seen on the train. That girl is Kotonoha Katsura, and he even managed to take a photo of her with his cell phone. Due to new seating in his class, he ends up next to Sekai Saionji, a nosy, but sweet and sincere girl. As she snoops for his cell phone while talking to him, she discovers his crush and vows to help him until Kotonoha agrees to go out with him. When Sekai finally gets them together, she realizes her own feelings after finding out that the person Kotonoha liked was, in fact, Makoto. While waiting for her train next to Makoto, who was waiting for Kotonoha, she has him talking about how he can repay her for all of her help. Before leaving for her train, she kisses him and cries when she boards the way home. Kotonoha happily arrives for her date with Makoto shortly after. With all three main characters carrying different expressions on their faces, the story begins. Ending Guideline / Suggested Route Order In School Days HQ, there's 22 possible endings for the player to experience.The endings are divided in: Main Heroines: Kotonoha (7 Endings) and Sekai (5 Endings) Sub Heroines: Hikari (2 Endings), Otome (1 Ending), Setsuna (1 Ending) Two Harem Endings And lastly 4 Bad Endings. The route order i suggest will be the: Two main heroines Kotonoha and Sekai Endings, Sub heroines Endings, Harem Endings and lastly the (infamous) Bad Endings. The Vn has Timed Choices , the player can also use right click to increase he countdown. School Days HQ also has built-in Flowchart , simply load and choose where you want to return to (only when you've been through the route). Flowchart Main Heroine Ending Guideline Katsura Kotonoha Christmas Eve Lust With Kotonoha To Kotonoha After the Kiss It Begins with the First Kiss All Hers Saionji Sekai I Love You With Honesty Bavarois Setsuna's Feelings Love Fulfilled Sub Heroine Ending Guideline Kuroda Hikari Everyone's Makoto Sexfriend Katou Otome Earnest Feelings Requited Kiyoura Setsuna I'm His Wife Harem Ending Guideline Two Lovers Goodbye Sekai Bad Ending Guideline Bloody End To My Child Forever Pushed Too Far Attribution This walkthrough is based on info attained on School Days vndb discussions and School Days ending Wiki with some adjustments made by me.2 points -
I really, really hated normal saber (blue one). I was all excited when she went "I'll be your sword", but damn, the girl doesn't know how to follow orders. And the #lolprideandmorality is pretty annoying too. Shirou partially takes the blame, but she wasn't much better as Kiritsugu's servant. If you're going to be a sword you kill your enemies without asking, not preach to the person wielding you. Red saber is much easier to deal with, though I still don't like it when people other than me act haughty She's a fun character. The best servant in this game is caster, no doubt. She's the weakest when it comes to combat, but her personality is great. Also, for the main heroines, I'd pick Rani over Rin any time of the day~2 points

This is a list of VNs that go above and beyond, where everything just comes together in an ideal fashion to create a superb VN. I'm listing those I've played, regardless of my personal tastes. Unlike the non-Ero list and some of my other lists, I won't be taking input for this from anyone who has played less than a hundred non-nukige VNs (make sure your vndb is updated, if you want to add to the list, lol). I know that sounds arrogant, but there really isn't any way a newcomer can judge on this issue. Not all of these VNs have aged well, and there is no such thing as a VN without issues, so I know for a fact that some people will disagree with me.

Millia -The ending (Released)
Deep Blue reacted to Millia Soft for a topic
Hi everyone! I’m the leader of a Vietnamese visual novel making group. We call our group Millia Soft. We plan on making great visual novels and become something big. Today, I’m here to introduce you to our first project “Millia –The ending-“ We are now on kickstarter, please check it here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/1803299001/millia-the-ending-visual-novel It's a story about a world that was cursed by its own goddess. Long ago, there are two goddesses with the duty to protect their world. But then, one of the two was angered by human and wanted to destroy the world with her curse. The other goddess had to sacrifice her body and power to temporary stop the curse then reborn again to continue fighting it. After 200 years of sacrificing and reborn, she met with Rize, the main character and also her guardian. Only then, she befriended with him and started to think the world how beautiful the world is. Rize was chosen by the world to become the goddess' guardian after the sudden death of his father. Rize met the goddess when he was young and befriended her. When he first knew about her role to fight with the curse, he found it ridiculous that she has to sacrifice so much. He told himself to do everything he can to help the goddess. Together with him is his little sister and childhood friend. The four became good friends with each other and share many happy memories with each other. But then again, it's time for the goddess to again sacrifice her body. The magic she used to fight the curse not only take her body but also her memory. And beside Rize, everyone is starting to act strange. The end is drawing close. http://i.minus.com/imN87Vq5YaNGW.JPG What will it be at the end of his journey, at the end of the road he chose?

Welcome to FuwaReviews
Gibberish reacted to solidbatman for a topic
Hey everyone, a while back I gathered up a few members to begin reviewing visual novels. Well, we now have our first review completed and published. FuwaReviews will post at least 3 visual novel reviews monthly. Our first review was written by Down, and he takes a look at a recent release. We are currently using free wordpress hosting until the server move takes place and we get our permanent home on the Fuwanovel domain. Be sure to follow the blog to keep up with all of our reviews as we post them. Our next review goes up on Thursday! https://fuwareviews.wordpress.com/1 point -

As one of the people doing the patching: No ETA. It's whenever I have a solid enough block of time to make progress. A single mistake can cost me an hour of work, and when that happens, I stop for a while so I don't smash a keyboard, as I've run out of spares.1 point -
