re: time yard pavilion it’s here for the long term, y’all

I recently reposted this q and a from @ms-loki-loves-nikki because she re-confirmed something I’d been wondering since the Time Yard Pav was first announced: 

The Time Yard Pavilion exchange in the Mystery Pavilion is a “long term pavilion”: in Momo, that means it’s permanent or, at least, here to stay for a loooooooooooong while. Like the other Pavs there we have for (every other) daily abuse. 

How do I figure that? I do my research. I mean, I trust Ms. Loki with my LN life, but I am a curious person as you know. So first, I of course analyzed EXACTLY what the official announcement said: 

From the Official LN FB Official Time Yard Announcement (LOL!)

This video shows the first event I'd like to introduce - Time Yard Pavilion. It's a long-term pavilion that will meet you after the Aprill 11 update. You will enjoy a time-limited 70% OFF from then until 27th. [...]  A free draw every 2 days.

So for Bold Part I of the above: I remembered something that was posted about Wish Court back when the Home feature was introduced like two months ago. 

From an Official LN FB Post (re: the Home Pavilion-- Wish Court)

This is our first perpetual Wish Court - House in the Forest. You can find it if you switch to the long-term tab. Long-term Wish Courts are similar to the Fantasy Pavilion, but for furniture and items. You will have a free and a half-price opportunity every 2 days.

Notice that House in Forest is the one that never goes away! We get time limited/ short term pavs there like that wedding furniture one (or does Cat Cafe ring a bell? It was in the Time Limited tab rather than in the “Long Term” one). 

Need more proof? That Bold Part II is going to ease your worries for the more science-minded (as opposed to the literary analysts) among you:

Remember when Ms. Loki answered this same exact question a million years ago and me, an Ancient Lit major, DID MATH to come to the following conclusion: 

1500 diamonds (cost of 10 Corridor of Clock + Porch of Misty) x 70% (the discount we were told we’d get until the 27th in, admittedly, a confusing choice of words) gives you 1050. 1500 - 1050 = 450 diamonds (the cost of 10 Time Yard pulls until midnight tonight). 

150 - (70% of 150) = 45!!!! ---> 150 - (150 x .7) = 45 (for those of y’all who want to try it yourselves lol!)

So put that logic in reverse to conclude that starting tomorrow, it will cost 150 dias to pull 1 and 1500 dias to pull 10 BUT YOU CAN STILL PULL.

Say it with me: 

Time Yard Pavilion is permanent, y’all.

A brand new stool in this case, is much better than getting a repeat of clothing pieces you already have 2539+ of

April Events and Updates List

This month is the 1st anniversary of Love Nikki’s English server. As of today, they’ve announced the arrival of 15 new suits coming this month! The three events in which you can receive them (and how to get them) are listed below, as well as the reveal of a new feature. But before that, here’s a kind of big update: 

On April 11th, the Double Diamonds gift for diamond recharge is going to be reset! Even if you’ve already claimed it, it will be available to reclaim again. You can only claim it once, but it’s kinda nice to get a second first. ^^

Now, without further ado, our upcoming events.

Ultimate Race

Event Dates: April 11th- April 17th

Suits: Track Blazer and Blue Fantasy

Extra Goodies: A background

Free or Paid?: Free. Collect Victory Flags with 3 Free attempts per day on an Event Map. (Can also buy Victory Flags directly in the User’s Shop.)

How it works: The Event Map has 5 stages: 2 quiz stages and 3 styling battles. Each time you play a stage, you’ll earn “Victory Flags.” Play those stages over and over again until you earn enough Victory Flags to exchange for pieces of each set. (How to obtain the background is still unclear, but my best guess is it could be a reward for finishing up both suits. UPDATE: We still don’t know for sure, but gonna keep you posted!) 

Collection Attempt Limits: There are 3 free attempts (per stage) per day. If you fail a stage, it does not count as an attempt. Unclear, but most likely, you can buy more attempts with diamonds-- or pay for Victory Flags directly. 

My Fave Suit: Blue Fantasy on the whole but love the hair and pose of Track Blazer!

Anniversary Lucky Bags

Event Dates: April 11th- April 27th

Suits: Ode to Glory, Flower Lyric, Time Flies, Bamboo Song, and Momo’s Adventure

Extra Goodies: A background with Ode to Glory; Diamonds Postercards (which contain diamonds that you can get from or give to friends/ association members)

Free or Paid?: Paid. Recharge diamonds directly from the Diamond Recharge to earn Stars. Use Stars to claim lucky bags (UPDATE: find them in the sidebar under Lucky Bag). 

HOWEVER, there’s a free-ish component, too. Diamond Postercards can be gained by purchasing diamonds ($4.99 tier or more), but also by signing in every day or receiving from friends/ association members--- and that’s a free guarantee! 

How it works: Buy diamonds directly from the Diamond Recharge to earn Stars. Trade Stars for Lucky Bags. Each Lucky Bag will contain a random outfit (UPDATE: YES. A full suit! My first being TIME FLIES!!!! EEEEEK!!!) from these 5 suits. Please note that Ode to Joy will DEFINITELY be in the last bag! However, it’s the world premiere of that suit, it has its own background, and there are guarantees that you will NOT gain a duplicate set from the Lucky Bags. In other words, buy five Lucky Bags to earn all five suits!

Collection Attempt Limits: There are no limitations on the amounts of diamonds/ Stars you can collect, but it is likely that there will only be 5 Lucky Bags in total, one for each suit. Will update as we know more! 

My Fave Suit: Time Flies. Is that weird? (Runner up: Flower Lyric. But it ain’t got no cat.)

Time Yard Pavilion

Event Dates: April 11th- April 27th (?)

Suits: Spring: Cloud’s Smile and Wind’s Whisper | Summer: Flute’s Thoughts and Lantern Wish | Autumn: Stellar Atlas and Galactic Classics | Winter: Warmth Nearby and Bond in Distance

Extra Goodies: 70% off until the 27th (this is why the end date is unclear lol!) and 4 backgrounds for the four seasons!

Free or Paid?: Freeish. Gotta start farming those diamonds because it costs the shiny shiny to draw.

How it works: This long-term pavilion is open until at least the 27th. Draw Karma Crystals with all of your diamonds, then visit the Pavilion’s Exchange Store to collect pieces of the girls’ suits and the four backgrounds. To claim the boy’s suit, complete the girl’s suit that complements it! UPDATE: Find it in the Mystery Pavilion!

Collection Attempt Limits: The only limit is the amount of diamonds you has in your life. For a how-to on Diamond Farming by Sailor Drew, click here (or get the quick version from Momo via sweetpinkstylist here). 

My Fave Suit: As a pair: I LOVE Winter and Autumn. Spring is super cute, too. But the girls’ suits are so lacking compared to the boys! For the boys, Autumn is the fave, followed by Winter, Spring, Summer (but I love em all). For the girls, Summer is my fave, followed by Autumn/Winter. Spring’s alright. (Basically, just give me all the backgrounds doh).

And finally... an update. 

The Time Diary feature will be available April 11th. You can see a map of Miraland. You can read the story without going through each phase (and find phases involving certain characters/ themes). AND you can earn rewards like free backgrounds! This is going to be a new fave of mine because it will allow a deeper look into the STORY part of the game. And that’s exactly what I’ve been looking to do! 

May Momo be with us all (or not, because seriously, that cat needs his eyes checked with his sense of fashion...)

[lovenikkilibrary]

So that’s where they’re hiding! Kinda excited because this is my first Story Suit event??? But also, this totally solves the great background mystery I had yesterday, lol! 

I guess I could’ve just checked the Time Yard Pavilion (because you have to get the backgrounds in the Mystery Pavilion’s Time Yard exchange store). BUT....
