How does something digital, but not physical, get sold out?

They are NFTs, each one is unique and the supply was limited. Clear as water...

How does something digital, but not physical, get sold out?

its a FOMO trick / tactic..... the act now or miss out triggers something in the brain.

totem will put artificial limits on something we all know won't ever run out because its digital, but in limiting it, it will keep a ***** hold on those that got in on it and those desperatly trying to get in on it.

wave something "free-ish" infront of a group of people, those that jump at it first will take a majority and leave others to miss out, those that do miss out will try again and again some succeeding, some failing. a few that got in first will miss out next time and those that missed out the first time will get it next time (or not), turning it into a revolving door of winners and losers. indoing so will result in a consistant want, need, craving *cough* *cough* addiction *cough* for product i.e gift cards and jokers and totem knows what people want, and how to hook them in and keep them coming back.

I never even looked at anything concerning babydolz.
I seem to remember seeing that one needed an entire season to quality.
Has that changed? Or maybe I am mistaken.

I got to the linked page.
It is a part of istripper website.

I found that I get 0.2161 babydolz every day.
(for one limited card with a three digit serial number starting 1)
I see that I have 52 babydolz.
I also see my history.
It says I got my first babydolz on January 19 this year.

Thank you all for your participation and feedbacks !

So I updated my mac to the newest OS, and I cannot open the iStripper app anymore. I tried deleting, and redownloading the app. At first the app opened, but after installing the latest update, it reverted to not opening anymore. Is there a way to diagnose / fix the issue?

please upgrade to the very new version https://www.istripper.com/binary/versions/2_0_0/1019/setupmac-istripper.dmg

Gift cards and Joker cards are sold out on the babyDolz store https://www.istripper.com/market_baby_dolz

The beta version doesn't let me move the girls to my second screen like I could in the old version. How do I fix this? Alternatively, how can I go back to the old version? The option in the settings screen doesn't work.

• set the version to 'stable' in your advanced settings
• quit iStripper
• install version 1.2.552 from here : https://www.istripper.com/binary/versions/1_2_552/1005/x64/setup-istripper.exe

Thanks

It would be nice if the trading cards (the 'g' collection) worked with the linkset.

I am no longer 'premium' or higher. I have no subscription to the website.
I have never downloaded 4k resolution cards.
In fact, all of my cards are downloaded in either 720p or 480p.
I still see 4k as a filter option in my collection.

Thank you @Calgon for this beautiful scene. The girls haven't finished washing the window, with all that sea water. 😊

Merci @Calgon pour cette très belle scène. Les filles n'ont pas fini de laver la vitre, avec toute cette eau de mer. 😊

My mailbox was overflowing with one request for this scene.

It's a bit intensive on the graphics card but I hope you all enjoy it.

@WA

I really Spent a ton more credits than I should have, if I had Planned ahead a bit..

I know that feeling. Your analysis assumes that what worked last time will work again and that the rules won't get changed - and if there's one thing you can guarantee, it's not to take anything on here as guaranteed.

I was so intent on winding down my credits mountain I piled into the games and still ended up having to do a top-up to complete things and that then put me well over the 2000 ticket mark but I think I will follow your advise and buy the cards I want over the coming months. 3 months without buying a single thing from iStripper was a bit boring - though I did explore some subscription VR sites. You can see the effect of 3 months solid of VR from my profile picture.

Reward systems change and this is still a relatively new idea. However, not announcing that it was changing and just reacting when customers query what is going on seems a poor way of treating people.

@WAThanks for that analysis.....

Yes, I wanted to see if I could find a good roadmap to obtain the EX cards for Master and Elite members.
Next time, I will plan out my quests better, and I will probably hold off on One SEC card, so That I can use a Joker to complete that Quest.

I ended up needing just 29 more tokes / points
and had to Spend a ton of Credits trying to complete the last thrill spin Quest ( 5 loses in a row )
and after 30 minutes of that not working,
I Scratched 25 more tickets to finish that Quest.
That added 200 tokens/ points so I went over by 171.

Got some known scrolling issues and hidden NFT crazyness, but I don't recognize these crashes on my M1 MacBook Air

I just saw Anny Aurora from behind.
That rear of hers is beautiful.

I haven't this issue with the build 1018 under Windows 11 23H2. The entire GUI is showing in the windows.@gameplayer : try to quit completely and relaunch the app. Do you see this issue with the 2 renders CPU and GPU ?

I have tried that and the problem still persists.

what are all these people talking about, i have had no issues with the beta, think it could be their computers, maybe compatability issues, all good for me

@willyweekly Yes Ellie Leen is definitely up there don't know how I forgot about her. Also in my infinite wisdom I managed to forget Avery and Loren Sun two more stunningly perfect behinds!

@Lincy,
welcome

Also it's weekend. Nobody is working at Totems office right now, not until tomorrow.

"buy their full length erotic show and watch them as many times as you want."

You don't buy the show, you buy the right to watch the show and as long you have the files of the show saved, you can play them as many times you want to.
Even if a card is removed from the store, they are not removed from your collection. Backup the files just in case and you are still able to play the show.
Only new users are not able to buy the show. If you have the card not downloaded and can't download the files anymore it's your fault, not having a backup. You can always request arefound for removed shows and you will get your credits back.
I have many shows from removed girls and I have all backed up two times, additional to my normal install. I'm still able to watch them if Iwant to. Also there are removed shows that you still can download, even if they are removed from the store to buy.
Other shows were removed completely. It depends on the girl and what she requested.

I find it odd that no one from Totem says anything on this topic as it seems to be a deeply unpopular Event.

@Calgon 😆 I think you just answered yourself there - that's why no one at Totem wants to say anything - it's unpopular and a mess for sure. It wastes so much time for customers on these quests. Bet many would much rather just buy the cards without these games.

@Lincy,It is rare for the company to mention (first) about the removal of a model's cards, and then give us some time to buy them or download them.Here is one occasion from 2023: https://www.istripper.com/forum/thread/53065/1I bought her cards about late 2021.

Thanks for the info/link @JonC001.

Appreciate the company recognizes a life change. However, there is also a commitment between company and member that is not being addressed. When the member purchases credits, the company is being prepaid for future services. As the preview tab says:
"buy their full length erotic show and watch them as many times as you want."
The shows will only play with company software and this also requires the card files as well. Removal of files prevents "watching them as many times as you want".

I received two news updates on my home page and a email to notify me that I reached another membership level. But a card is removed and nothing is said about it in advance to make sure members back up the file? Or commented on at all so it's only discovered when the card no longer works or has disappeared? A notice should be sent in a news update that would clearly let a member know that a card is going to be removed. How is ignoring this issue an acceptable answer? This clearly isn't keeping the commitment with their members.

@WA

Nature made Sonya Blaze body to be perfect 💖 So for me she will always win 💖

@well_hung
Your post is off topic here.
By the way, the SEC can be exchanged with a Joker card or win in the TGIFs, just look at them. Some of the SECs can be obtainabled with the Advent calendar and sometime with a month pre-order of shows.

@poultry78bb I agree that was an appealing aspect of buying NFT cards. I bought all the seasone and spent considerable money on some of the harder to get NFT's. Of course, I thought I would be rewarded by getting a joker around one time per two months. Even faster if I kept buying into new full seasons. I just accumulated wnough babydolz to get a joker and then the jokers were gone. Naturally that is frustrating. It was ade worse by a lack of forewarning on the change in the reward system.

With all that said, of course I fully understand that reward systems do change. There are economic and fairness issues. Apparently, the current system exhausted the reward supply. So, a new system will be implemented to limit the rewards to a certain number per wallet. I am keeping an open mind and hope that the new system will work out as well as I thought it would when I first started buying NFT's.

I have all the ordinary cards in my collection except the special event cards.
I'd love to own all the special event cards.
How can I ever get to own these special event cards?

@philours resentment is a strong word. I never expressed any resentment at how this was done. Dissatisfaction (unhappy) is exactly what I said. I am speaking for myself and used the wrong "person". In my opinion, this could have been communicated bettter. Ultimatelky, I suspect it will all work out well which is why I said "wauting for the new rewards system to be implemented". I thought it was a simple statement and am surprised to get this sort of reaction. Anyway, peace and let's move on.

I use Last Posts in the forum, using edge browser.
I look fast over the posts, if there is something of interest and move on.
But I use iStripper Discord more then the forum today.
I use the app only for watching the girls, the forum in the app works worse then in the broewser.

Also I overlooked this thread until now, I didn't even see it in the Last Posts.

There are still some ***** issues with some of the settings screens with a cusomised theme.

An example. I wanted to change my storage folder. When I click that in settings, the whole UI goea an opaque white. On top of that the Storage Folder pop-up is an opaque white box with white writing. This means the text in the pop-up merges with the white text in the setting screen underneath. The only things properly visible are the cancel/apply buttons and the disk spaced used free which, sensibly, overrides my text colour choice and is in dark gray.

I like the customisable theme concept but, as in this case, it could be set to an unusable format. Possibly these pop-ups could ignore the theme and be in a ***** dark tewxt on a light background?

@Lincy,
It is rare for the company to mention (first) about the removal of a model's cards, and then give us some time to buy them or download them.
Here is one occasion from 2023:
https://www.istripper.com/forum/thread/53065/1
I bought her cards about late 2021.

Mostly read the forum threads. Still haven't received the newsletter despite signing up and emailing Sheeban here and on Discord. Since she left, who is the contact person for not getting the newsletter?

The posts about removed cards in particular bother me. Are we given any notice before a card is removed? So if we haven't backed up the files for said card, we're out of luck? There surely needs to be a better way of handling this. Wondering why they would request content removal when they were paid for their time. Unless the contract stated rights for a certain time period, wouldn't the company still retain the right to sell the sets? Seems an odd request.

I don't log into the program every day. I read the front page for the general information. This will tell me about the sales, games, new cards, etc.

The forum gives me an idea of other details to see and concerns other people have. I don't read every section of the forum. I don't have the time. I have posted in the sections I don't use, and by the time I get back to them, my post is burried and gone.

Here is an odd pairing forthe behind:
Aria Giovanni is a favorite.
Ellie Leen is a favorite.

They are quite different but they fit into "my favorite" section

he only things I dislike are the lack of the full png image showing

When you are in the Store view or the Collection View.
Top right of the view is an Icon with 4 Squares in it. This is Card view.
to the left of that Icon is a Standing Girl Icon this switches to Girl View.

Click on Girl View to see the Full.png and Fullhd.png images, of the Cards in the current View.

Use a filter and Sort before Switching to Girl View, will then only display the Girls from that Filtered View. and in the Sort order in that view.

Give it a try...

If anyone is interested, I did finally get to 2000 Quest tokens to earn the EX card.
I needed just 29 more tokens.
and there is NOTHING in the storte to buy.. I would have used a joker to buy just 1 card and get 50 Quest tokens..
But I already had all of the cards..

I played the Thrill Spins like forever, trying to get 5 loses in a row..
i got to 4 in a row, and then a win... Ugghhh..
That's all I needed... just that Quest..

in the End though, it was more cost effective to just use Crypto to add 250 credits and get 50 bounos Quest tokens..
Since I already had more than Enough Credits...
I opted to complete the Last Golden Ticket Quest.
play 25 more times
to make it a total of 50 plays...

I won 1 Joker in the process.. I won back 50% of the Credits I used.
and I got 200 Quest tokens, Putting me way over the top !

And Most of all I got the EX card...

here is the video clip of the last 6 minutes scratching the last 25 golden tickets.

@Celine
If, Totem / iStripper gave Master Level and Elite level Collection holders Back Credit for the Cards Bought in Between the 3 Months from the Last EX event.
That would be about 90 cards bought and award 170 Quest tokens in the Next EX event.
https://www.istripper.com/customdata/forum/2024-09-14/qjN74LKD.png

I have mentioned this before as a creative option for the Master and Elite Level Members.
and I think it is a Fair solution...

I downloaded the beta 2 version directly from the website, then installed it.
This is a report only, not a complaint of any kind.

I found the queue.
Yes, eleven cards I do not own had the demos downloads.
I clicked to disable the previews.
After this, I clicked the red button to make it green so that cards would play. One demo played. After that, only cards in my collection played.

I found the nfts.
I did not like the presentation, but was able to find those I own.

I found the collection.
Everything seems perfect there, except for the full image (*_full.png or *_fullhd.png) is missing. I have the files but the app does not show them.

I found the store.
All looks good there.

Clicking on a card brings up the card stuff.
This is actually rather nice. I could see everything without any problem, maybe a little scrolling. Scrolling is not a problem for me.
The clips list (through 'edit clips') is easy to see, even though it does not fit very well, so some vertical scrolling is necessary.

I found the forum. I saw a nice black screen with text visible. I did not stay there beyond some seconds, so I have nothing to report otherwise.

I did not bother with playlists or much else.

After closing the app, I deleted the eleven demos. I reopened the app.
It did not show properly. I noticed a complete blank space at top: 227 horizontal pixel lines below the Windows title bar, including 177 horizontal pixel lines below the next area. This is all above the line that shows the 'queue'.

I closed the app, and then reopened it. This time it was normal viewing. The extra 227 lines at top were not there.

The app did not download any more demos and in the queue, the previews were set to disabled. My cards played.

The only things I dislike are the lack of the full png image showing and the requirement of clicking collection or store everytime after opening a card details. I did not notice the left image of my skin. I did not look for it. Was it there?

I will continue to use the forum via the browser.
I am back to 12376, my preferred version.

So what does all of this Mean?

Like myself, there are other members who have a full collection, or almost full collection
and have no Cards to buy to complete the card buying Quests.

So we Need a path to get the SEC and EX cards.

seems an EX card is released every 3 months or 4 times a year.
In the 3 months between, there will be about 90 cards released.

at our level, Master / Elite we get a 50% discount, so 90 cards for us is
90 x 30 minus 50% = 1,350 credits.

then we need to spend about 2000 credits or a net spend of 1650 credits
for a total of 1,350 plus 1,650 = 3,000 credits

If we used Crypto to buy the 3,000 credit pack During the EX event
we Get 3000 credits, plus 1500 bonus token towards the EX event.
for $249.99

and After playing all the Quests to Get the SEC and the EX card
we will have enough credit to buy the Next 3 Months of Cards, 1 card each day..
and Not have to hold off making a Purchase for 3 Months...

If we don't use Crypto, and Instead Re-load 1x 2500 credits during the event.
it would cost $199.99 we still get the same 1500 bonus Quest Tokens.

and maybe have to play less of the Quests..
I'd play just 50 x 10 credits per spin at the slots...

and then Still Have enough Credits to Get the 90 cards
and 2 extra SEC cards released 1 x a Month.

So that is the Run down for a Member with a Full Collection.

• Re-Load 2500 credits for $199.99 during the EX event. get 1500 Quest tokens
• Spend 500 credits
• At the Slots Get 500 Quest Tokens. Plus win back Credits as you spin.

or

• At the Thrill Spin to Get 500 Quest Tokens. Win Back Credits

or

• On the golden Tickets to get 500 Quest Tokens. Win Back Credits and Maybe Jokers.
• You will have 2000 credits or More left.
• Buy the next 3 months of cards 1350 credits
• play the SEC events 650 credits left to use on the SEC events.

( you might need an extra re-load if you run short on credits )


It Costs $199.99 or $249.99 every 3 Months if you Want to get every SEC and Every EX card, plus all the regular Cards.
That is a budget of $66.67 a Month or $83.33 per month
on a weekly basis that is:
$16.68 or $20.84 per week for your Budget.
