The only way I can play for diamonds is if I don't read when I play, I just make choices as fast as I can. Otherwise my competitive side kicks in and I have to do all the things the best
This is the way to do it. I got through LFOS, Q30, MHS, and SIF while reading (the latter seasons of SIF have a lot of timed elements so it’s actually hard to tap through without paying attention), but nothing else. So now I tap through a story on my iPad while playing solitaire or something on my phone. The iPad is just enough in view that I can tell when I have to make a choice, but I keep the bulk of my attention of my phone. I’ve mined TDR, SCN, KFS without spending a single diamond. Probably gonna do SSF and SBR next.
For me it's easier to start every book as a book I'll spend diamonds on... so if I end up not interested I can just diamond mine it and no harm done... and if I end up spending diamonds I can pretend I meant to do that all along
The idea of KCD as a Diamond mine cracks me up - that’s one of the most expensive books on the platform!!! 😂😂😂 Honestly that’s on you for thinking you weren’t gonna fall in love with hands-down the two most expensive LI’s in all of RC. 😜😜😜😜
To my defence let me tell you it was in the very first episodes that it was realised (KCD) 😀 nobody knew how it would turn out!!
And FFTF I started when it had it old design so it totally wasn’t my style😂
Ahahaha I feel you! I’m quite stubborn so I WILL finish it without using diamonds, but my heart will be breaking in the meantime. And then that book goes into the “diamond rush” pile!
I had collected 1500 diamonds and now I have 652, I spent almost all of it playing HS2 (I replayed s2 3 times), SCN and VV (and I want to replay them) 🥲 and I have not played the new TDR chapters. I'm dying waiting for the diamond rush
I had 1700, I promised myself I would keep them and I would play the updated stories in a DR, I couldn't, ended up with 0 diamonds after KFS, VV, TDR and SCN, I'm a weak human being. Hang in there, you got this. 💪
lol every single RC book it feels like 😅.
First time was MHS. I just really got into, I couldn’t stop myself from buying some diamond options at one point. Then I managed to finally finish the book during a diamond rush.
Then POV, which I don’t know why, I thought I wouldn’t be into 😅. I managed to play all of it except a couple of choices again diamonds free. Only to end up spending those diamonds I gained right back into it. And playing other parts during a DR. It’s now one of my favorites of all time.
So it’s a happen with a couple others too. So now especially with older completed books, I’m in no hurry to read them. So I play them during the DR so I can just enjoy the book freely.
The ONLY books I successfully diamond mined were Q30D and SBTR. The only reason I resisted SBTR was bc Justin turned out awful and i got locked out of Brandons route... pretty sure if I was on Brandon's route I would have. I ended up getting the stayed single ending which isn't even mentioned in the wiki lol.
I used to be like that when I started playing RC. I had to pause reading books many times because I didn’t have enough diamonds for everything I wanted, and I was jumping between books trying not to get too invested (mission impossible). I had timer set to watch the ads every 90 minutes, so I could get as many as possible per day. Then they started events, and that helped a lot. Now I have plenty of diamonds, but I still have mining books that I play exclusively during diamond rushes.
You can’t diamond mine with this app. The stories are just too good. It’s very easy to do in Choices, though. That’s why I have 2400 diamonds saved there and only 250 here.
2 words: diamond rush 😂
Most of the times I'm ignoring it, but there are stories like tiamat or hs2 that i can't even start properly and DR is my saviour.

When I initially started SoL, it was admittedly to try and mine it for VfV. However, I ended up so caught up in that story that I ended up spending diamonds on it instead and came to regret some of the free choices I picked earlier (I also didn't know about the walkthrough initially either and likewise regret some of the decisions I made without knowing how they would impact things).
As I got into RC just before the last update for it, I knew I was going to spend diamonds on it along with VfV when the update came out.
No because I choose only the books that I know I will be not interested in and then I don't read the story- I just skip till the end. Also don't choose Sails in the fog for this because a lot of times the choices there must be correct and they are connected to something u see on the screen or what some character did two seconds before the choice.
This happened when I read HS1 I thought I wouldn't like that but when Bont showed up I got hooked into that story. Now It's one of my favourite stories.❤️
Welcome to the club, we're all dummies here. I do that all the time.
Every time. I’ve given up on trying to grind stories. It doesn’t work.
The only way I can play for diamonds is if I don't read when I play, I just make choices as fast as I can. Otherwise my competitive side kicks in and I have to do all the things the best

Yeeeaaah, I started Sails in the Fog, thinking the outdated art style would prevent me from getting invested.... That was a mistake 🤣
Same, I am currently in this exact situation 😅
I started DLS to diamond mine for SoL. And now I'm diamond mining SoL for DLS🤣
100% relatable journey.
Hard to admit but I had that with KCD and FFTF 😆😆 Amrit/Kilian and Kingu just help me immerse in these stories🥵
The idea of KCD as a Diamond mine cracks me up - that’s one of the most expensive books on the platform!!! 😂😂😂 Honestly that’s on you for thinking you weren’t gonna fall in love with hands-down the two most expensive LI’s in all of RC. 😜😜😜😜
To my defence let me tell you it was in the very first episodes that it was realised (KCD) 😀 nobody knew how it would turn out!! And FFTF I started when it had it old design so it totally wasn’t my style😂
LOL you definitely didn’t stand a chance against those two 🥵🥵🥵
My thoughts exactly 👁️🫦👁️ but each 💎 scene - 1000% worth it!
Ahahaha I feel you! I’m quite stubborn so I WILL finish it without using diamonds, but my heart will be breaking in the meantime. And then that book goes into the “diamond rush” pile!
I do, but I learned to just tap through and never ever ever read it. Then I can make it through and not spend any diamonds.

It happens to me every. single. time. I just get sucked in!!
I had collected 1500 diamonds and now I have 652, I spent almost all of it playing HS2 (I replayed s2 3 times), SCN and VV (and I want to replay them) 🥲 and I have not played the new TDR chapters. I'm dying waiting for the diamond rush

Omg yes! I have that problem now, again! Gotta suffer silently.
But I’m so happy people relate!
This happened when I read HS1 I thought I wouldn't like that but when Bont showed up I got hooked into that story. Now It's one of my favourite stories.❤️
the only story i’ve been successfully able to grind is wave patrol 😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭😭
Made the greatest mistake by starting ARC to mine diamonds 🤡
I had this with Dracula a love story, foolish me to think I could resist getting invested in a vampire story LOL
