Dans mon premier post, j'ai juste relater que sur la fin 2018, les SECs arrivaient sur le carroussel et que l'on pouvait uniquement y télécharger les démos. Et que dans la foulée (quelques jours peut-être) il y avait à faire une mise à jour du logiciel recommandée par iStripper. Et qu'à la suite de cette mise à niveau de l'application PLUS DE PREVIEW DE SEC!!! Le spectacle était terminé.

Entre nous:
On se fiche totalement des phases de développement du logiciel, ils ont juste adapté leur code pour que ce dernier bloque les SECs au niveau du carroussel et des previews, pointbarre. Et la génèse de tout ceci est purement commerciale.

P.S.
Perso, je repecte le business privé d'iStripper avec ses règles de fonctionnement, mais ici bloquer des previews, je trouve cela "PAS BIEN DU TOUT".😆

In my first post, I just related that on the end of 2018, the SECs were arriving on the carousel and that you could only download the demos there. And that in the wake (a few days maybe) there was to be a software update recommended by iStripper. And that following this upgrade of the application NO MORE SEC PREVIEW!!! The show was over.

Just between us:
Who cares about the development phases of the software, they just adapted their code to make it block SECs at the carousel and preview level, full stop. And the genesis of all this is purely commercial.

P.S.
Personally, I respect iStripper's private business with its rules of operation, but here blocking previews, I find it "NOT GOOD AT ALL".😆

Maybe ask here for help if the game is not working.

I have 4973 cards but my name isn't there. Is the ranking for premium members only?

No, Premium does not come into play.

What does count towards the total are currently available cards - so in your total you must have some cards no longer available because I can see in your account that there are still 24 current cards that are not in your collection.

As far as I am concerned "the topic" is whatever the users are discussing irrespective of what the original title of the thread may be. It should not be up to any individual to decide to shut down a thread becaise they think it has wandered.

We're way off the original topic

I've written that two posts above.
Please, come back on topic, or I will close it.
Thank you.

@TheEmu

It is less clear that there should always be a separate test phase - testing should be part of all the phases - though it is clear that it should be done and often there will be two or more phases dedicated to testing.

I also have spent about 40 years struggling to get the importance of testing properly acknowledged - mostly to get that importance recognised as part of the requirements phases rather than as an "add-on" extra phase at the end. Ironically, considering Sexy3DBoy's NASA comment, this was mostly in respect to ESA and NASA projects and they were both quite poor at it compared with what I had been used to previously.

We're way off the original topic, but I can't help chiming in. This has been a hot issue for me for about the same length of time. I'd phrase it a bit differently. Instead of testing, I prefer to talk about Quality Assurance. Testing is a form of Quality Control and Quality Control is part of Quality Assurance. The Six Sigma community believes that with enough quality assurance at the front end you can eliminate testing at the back. Although I don't buy that completely they have a point.

I have been convinced for a long time that testing is an inefficiently use of quality resources. I think peer reviews of requirements and designs are much more effective for finding significant problems. These days I do mostly enterprise level requirements work. From personal experience, the quality of my work products is directly proportional to the amount of peer reviews I can get from my collegues. I also know that the most significant problems I've detected in other people's work has been from review of their designs.

Here is a favorite quote of mine from Componsit/Structure Design by Glenford Myers, 1978, page 2:

"Programmers spend the majority of their time correcting their mistakes.

"Moreover they never finish. Examinations of typical programming projects will show that, over the dduration of the project, programmers spend over 50% of their working hours looking for and correcting their mistakes. The usual "solution" to this is remarkable. We try to solve the problem by rushing through the design process so that enough time is left at the end of the project to uncover the errors the were made because we rushed through the design process."

40+ years later and we still work this way.

This Hall of Fame there were 4970 cards in the Store
August has 31 days, so the next Hall of Fame should be 5002 cards
31 regular cards and one SEC, if the one SEC per month is followed.

So the Team has the entire month of August to finalize any plans they have for the 5000 Achievement badge.

Many Members have already reached 5000 cards in their collection, but this includes cards no longer for sale that are not in the store.
So as far as the Hall of Fame goes, it is as of yet, not an Official 5000 cards from the store.

Oui, vous voyez cette info sur la page de rechargement, comme le signale @wrightsayswow.
Je viens également de le remarquer car cette info n'apparait que si vous utiliser la méthode de recharge sur la page web.
Malheureusement l'info n'apparait pas si vous utiliser l'application !!😲

Yes, you see this info on the reload page, as @wrightsayswow reports.
I also just noticed it because this info only appears if you use the reload method on the web page.
Unfortunately the info does not appear if you use the application !! 😲

Oh well 30 cards to go to 5000.

5000 cards is a great course on iStripper. Unfortunately this step does not give any benefits or rewards. Not even an additional success (achievement) Sad 😭

To be honest for me it was just a bit of fun getting there.😎

Eh bien 30 cartes pour passer à 5000.

[citation] 5000 cartes est un excellent cours sur iStripper. Malheureusement, cette étape ne donne aucun avantage ou récompense. Même pas un succès supplémentaire (réalisation) Triste 😭[/quote]

Pour être honnête pour moi, c'était juste un peu amusant d'y arriver.😎

On the page where you buy the credits it gives the time in Paris (11am / UTC +2) - you'll have to adjust for your time zone and note @Philours advice.

And why we cannot see the previews of the SEC, only Totem has the answer. So, I propose to wait and see if the team will write a response to that point.

It's not the first time I asked such question... I am still waiting...

Unfortunately this step does not give any benefits or rewards.

With now more members getting to this level, perhaps that will soon change?

That's a relief 👍 we don't want the lovely ladies ***** themselves 😊

@WSW no worries..., there is a safety net ~ we rendered it invisible 😉

Interesting analysis gentlemen, but we are now far from the original topic. And why we cannot see the previews of the SEC, only Totem has the answer. So, I propose to wait and see if the team will write a response to that point.
Have a nice day 😎

@EverthangForever I like the FractalGarden117 and 118 - thanks for those 👍
117 for the pole dances and 118 for swings. Hope those girls on the swing don't mind heights 😄

@pickle1

No I did not forget it, I just didn't mention it. I said that there are always at least the three phases I mentioned - this being almost obvious to almost everyone, when pointed out, even for trivial cases such as

print "Hello world!"

It is less clear that there should always be a separate test phase - testing should be part of all the phases - though it is clear that it should be done and often there will be two or more phases dedicated to testing.

I also have spent about 40 years struggling to get the importance of testing properly acknowledged - mostly to get that importance recognised as part of the requirements phases rather than as an "add-on" extra phase at the end. Ironically, considering Sexy3DBoy's NASA comment, this was mostly in respect to ESA and NASA projects and they were both quite poor at it compared with what I had been used to previously.

During that time I have also struggled to get the importance of putting extra effort into the very early phases - those that precede the software requirements phase - in order to determine what the real user requirements are rather than what they say they are (unfortunately that requires extra work from the users which is hard to get). All too often the user requirements we got were rather vague.

Oh well 30 cards to go to 5000.

.Even the most informal software development (which the iStripper development is not) has at least the three stages of requirements, design and implementation - even if it is only a single person writing a very small program for their own use he or she will ask themselves "what do I want the program to do" (requirements), "how should it do it" (design) and "what code do I need to write for it to do that" (implementation).

Typical - you forgot the fourth stage - testing to ensure that the code met the requirements.

I spent damned near 40 years in IT fighting that battle!

Climbing so far so good, up to #8, which suprised me. Jokers seem to be very hard to collect. Gift cards are easier but still expensive. Oh well 30 cards to go to 5000.

J'essaie d'en arriver au point où je peux avoir une *****ée entière d'iStripper "gratuitement" pour ainsi dire (c'est-à-dire sans dépenser de crédits).

Cela n'arrivera jamais. Totem trouvera toujours un moyen de me faire dépenser😊

Ha O.K. @Number6, c'est une idée 😊 Vous pourriez y arriver ! Si les spectacles VR vous intéressent, ils sont toujours payants. Une idée serait qu'ils soient échangeables avec des cartes cadeaux (Pourquoi pas?). Quand aux ventes aux enchères...Peu de solutions existent pour vous 😢.
Bonne chance alors 😎😊

Ha O.K. @Number6, that's an idea 😊 You could do it! If VR shows interest you, they always pay off. One idea would be for them to be redeemable with gift cards (Why not?). When at auctions ... Few solutions exist for you 😢.
Good luck then 😎😊

I am not 100% sure if I want to buy some credits at the moment... When will the extra credit deal stop?

As I wrote in another post (maybe not on the right place),

I use iStripper on my mobile
It's a good player for strip shows
Thanks to Totem for this good product

I think it could be interesting to introduce augmented reality in it by being possible to use the camera of the mobile to associate the show with our real environment. With this the camera of the mobile could take the picture of our room in real time and associate it to the show as a background picture. WIth this we could imagine that the show is in our home.

What do you think about that?

I could have used a wildcard,

Amazing to see the members collecting jokers. I see a few

I collect giftcards as well!😎

Incroyable de voir les membres collectionner des jokers. j'en vois quelques

Je collectionne aussi les cartes-cadeaux !😎

@tigerblue300
You can win the Milena Ray SEC with the progression bar. This bar will progress when you play at the Wheel of Bargains, you don't have to purchase the cards.

To speak about Windows 11, please use this thread https://www.istripper.com/fr/forum/thread/48081/1?post=718408
I close this one.

J’aurais pu utiliser un Joker,

Etonnant de voir les membres faire la collection de jokers. J'en vois quelques-uns 😊 A quoi vont-ils servir?😕
Seraient-ils vraiment accro aux jeux? 😊
Ceci étant dit, chacun fait ce qu'il lui plait 😉 Mais surprenant!

Sonya and her pink friend ?! This is going to be a lot of fun, I can't wait😄

#05 and climbing. Old timers are slacking on the SEC's it seems :D

Mainly because we cannot take part in the "Wheel of Bargains" because we have all the available cards. Therefore there is no way to win the SEC until the game changes next week.😰😰😰😰😰😰😰

I could have used a Joker but I am not really that worried about having the SEC or what position I have in the Hall Of Fame. She wears that uniform in her VR Video and I have that.😍😍😍😍

#05 and climbing. Old timers are slacking on the SEC's it seems :D

;-)

I would like to request Tatiana Coco all day sucker for mobile. Or amy other card by her.

I tried iStripper on the insider build of win 11 and it's running really well. Does anyone know if the visual upgraddes for games also work on istripper? It's running better than i expected.

This is the july 2021 iStripper’s Hall of Fame !

• Collection award Rewards the 3 members who have purchased the biggest number of shows during the month.
• Full Sets award Rewards the 3 members who have completed the biggest number of full sets of models' shows during the month.

These members get a decoration on their profile picture for one month! (Make sure you have a nice avatar picture on yours!)
You will also find here a ranking of the top 250 active members with the largest collections of shows. If there is equality between members, they are sorted from the oldest to the most recently registered.
Congratulations to all!

@Manue is it possible to win the Milena Ray special event card on wheel of bargains? And do you have to purchase the cards to increase the progress bar or just spin the wheel? Thanks

@Sexy3DBoy

This is getting silly. The point I was making is that the decision to block all uses of the preview clips prior to purchase could have been made as a deliberate policy by the management and the development team then had to do it (in which case it was a requirement) or the requirement may have been a weaker one but it was decided to do it that way anyway (in which case it was a design stage or implementation stage decision) rather than a requirement.

If the decision was one of basic policy for SECs then it is less likely to change than if it was a pragmatic one made later relating to how things are programmed.

Even the most informal software development (which the iStripper development is not) has at least the three stages of requirements, design and implementation - even if it is only a single person writing a very small program for their own use he or she will ask themselves "what do I want the program to do" (requirements), "how should it do it" (design) and "what code do I need to write for it to do that" (implementation).

I was more particularly thinking about which point in the software requirements/design/implementation development cycle the decision was made rather than at what time it was made.

Je t'invite gentiment à revenir sur terre, on n'est pas à la NASA.😆

I kindly invite you to come back to earth, this is not NASA.

Pour moi, ce n'est pas de la censure mais la politique commerciale de Totem.

Evidemment que la cause est commerciale mais c'est pas le sujet. La censure, elle, n'en est que la conséquence.😆

Quand le mercredi je peux voir les previews d'une SEC afin d'être incité à jouer et que le lendemain je ne peux plus voir les previews de ladite SEC, et bien j'appelle cela de la censure et rien d'autre. Et pour revenir à l'objet de ce fil: à quoi peuvent bien servir des clips de preview si ils ne sont pas visionnables dans un contexte de Teasing dans le monde sublime des jeux olympiques chez iStripper?.

Le clip de preview est un invariant concernant les cartes à vendre et celles à gagner. Sauf qu'ici le système des previews est complètement biaisé.

Of course the cause is commercial but that's not the point. Censorship is only the consequence 😆

When on Wednesday I can see the previews of an SEC in order to be encouraged to play and the next day I can't see the previews of said SEC, well I call that censorship and nothing else. And to get back to the point of this thread: what is the point of preview clips if they are not viewable in the context of teasing in the sublime world of the Olympic Games at iStripper?

The preview clip is an invariant concerning the cards to be sold and those to be won. Except that here the preview system is completely biased.

I wondered off again into the world of the Classic sampler cards. Found Jennifer Max in her 0057 card enjoying herself with her feather boa - she certainly looks very happy with it 😍
(In a least 3 clips but not marked with the accessory symbol)

Hello, I have over 4979 cards what to do to receive Special Event cards, all the games like the wheel of Bargain I can't enter.
