I've got a two questions regarding the magazines upload and maybe a suggestion if it has not been implemented yet.

Firstly, one of the rules/info about the magazine states:
After all chapters are unlocked, the whole magazine will be available.

My first question is: When all the magazine chapters are unlocked, would there be a new download link that would contain all the chapters in 1 rar/zip file? or would we still need to download each chapters separately?

Secondly, when I click on a magazine, the chapters that have yet to be unlocked mentions that if I have 10k points and above it would be shown. (Which lead me to believe that pretty much once you have 10k points the whole magazine would technically be unlocked for that user).

My second question is: Similar to the first question, but if I have 10k points and I unlocked the whole magazine, like the question above, would there be a download link that contains all the chapters in 1 rar/zip file? or would we also still need to download the chapters separately?

Now, I'm sure this system has already been implemented or talked about, but in case it has not: I think it would be great to have the full magazine download in 1 rar/zip file when all the chapters are unlocked or when someone has 10k points. IE you could put the full magazine download link at the end of the last magazine chapter and have it unlocked in two different ways: whether you have to wait X amount of hours after the last chapter is unlocked or it's instantly unlocked when the last chapter is unlocked.

There will be a single RAR archive containing all pages (excluding the ADs).
This will be instantly unlocked along with the last chapter.
However as you know these are 2500px scans the size is quite big.
It may be split into part1,part2,part3 etc.

The 10000 points wording was amended yesterday to "locked by a timer" to better represent our intention.
It is a function of the Discuz forum that allow content to be hidden unless X days has passed (which we have changed to hours) OR the member has sufficient points. At the moment we do not believe there is any user that can reach 10000 points which is why it is set this way.

We are only using the timer part of it, so that the unlocking is done automatically.
This is part of our re-upload discouraging measure, which was successfully used on our game releases.

Thank you for your support.

Ah, damn. Should have checked here first. I'll delete my other posts so I won't be some sort of spamming idiot.

Anyway, might as well throw my question here too. What magazines are you guys planning to scan? I was hoping to see Unreal here too, but Comic Lo and Pizazz are more than enough for me.

Thanks, and more power to you guys!

There are several issues of Comic天魔 from 2012 that have never been scanned. Do you know if you will be doing those?

Comment

提督  I have checked with our scan provider. He said most of them have already released 单行本 so there is no point to scan the old ome.  Post time 2014-6-13 09:54

Does your team plan on scanning tankoubon, taking commissions or fundraising?

We have substantial amount of old unreleased tankoubon and even VFB in stock. And there is no difficulty buying new one to release.

However if we release those old one, or buy new one, they will just get copied by others instantly.
Unlike magazine which we can try to make a name by splitting in chapters (which seems like they don't bother to copy), this method cannot really apply to tankoubon.

Regarding fundraising or taking commission, there will be problem where there will be "uploaders" looking to infiltrate the group. It isn't hard for them to spend 1000 yen worth of "donation" in exchange for 100000 yen worth of scans (excluding the time spent by our staff in the process of scanning), then earn back 1000 yen by releasing just a small portion of those content.

It is just one of those bee hives that we don't want to stir just yet.

While there is money to be made by using paid hosters, we use those earnings to support our servers or buy original content for release. We also try to release in a way that minimize damage to publishers, by delaying release for a reasonable period. So people who really wanted that game or magazine, will have a higher tendency to buy the original, knowing that it is less likely they will be immediately available after the release date.

Therefore we dislike "transloaders" who are really benefiting no one but themselves.
Such as providing duplicated links, or worse, messing with the source content like recompressing jpg so that it becomes bigger, adding site name to all the filenames, etc. Many of these "transloaders" will leak private released content given the opportunities.

Manga cost substantially less than games (which we made our name already). If there are less people downloading from those "transloading" source, I think there should be enough money to buy all tankoubon and magazines. Such that commissions or fundraising should not be needed.

Nevertheless, if you want know enough people interested in fundraising, we will surely consider.

Okay, I apologize if I missed and answer somethere but well I have an important question. Do you guys take funding for magazine scans -OR- if I can provide service if I am able to provide raw scans that need to be cleaned?

Kind of curious because currently I'm in possesion of two raw scans that need to be cleaned and I don't have to do it.

One of which is this http://www.mujin-ti.net/toguti-masaya.htm and another being the latest issue of Comic MILF.

//poor wording here, im in a hurry.

I see that this site has just started not too long ago. I just have a few questions I want to ask to clarify things a bit.
So my question is,
--Will the site expand and make new sections for Doujinshis and Tankoubons? (Seems like you will eventually though.)
--All the contents (including VIP contens, Magazines, Tankoubon, Eroge, etc,...) in Mikocom will eventually be released to the public right? Or will there be a section where only trusted members and VIPs are only able to access?

I see that this site has just started not too long ago. I just have a few questions I want to ask to ...

Doujinshis
- Depending on staff availability

Tankoubons
- We are not well known enough to the manga scene to startour own scan yet.
- Our scanner is already overwhelmed by the amount ofmagazines. We have another scanner available, but the ADF machine needs arepair (very costly)
- We do have roughly 9500 old tankoubons one we collectedelsewhere, that we plan to upload for starter
- We also have about 600 scanned tankoubons that we neverreleased. A lot of them probably already been released elsewhere.
- There are already plenty of groups scanning Tankoubons, atthe moment we don't see the need to join in.

Magazines
- Similar to what we do with games, we hold the magazinesfor a period of time to encourage sales in Japan.
- We will keep roughly 21 magazines in the VIP section +roughly 9 in the public section releasing in chapters.
- We use any earnings to cover magazine cost plus the maintenancecost of our ADF machine(s).

Eroge
- Japanese uploader Justice / He117 / (゚∀゚ヘ)are now uploading most of the releases.
- We tried purchasing all games for 2 months. It places avery heavy burden on us (both financially and staff hours) but with negligiblebenefits either to our community.
- We welcome other people to buy games and share, and wouldsuggest them to do it responsibly, i.e. don’t try to ruin the Japanese sales.

Eroge Tokuten
- We will at the very least, match release all contentuploaded by Japanese uploaders.
- If we have any unreleased bonuses, it will be held for atleast 21 days. We will unlock one bonuses of a day. During the 21 days, thebonus can be obtained by VIP "access" credit.
- All the bonuses will be available on Mikocom @ Nyaa,Mikocon.nya, 2DJGAME, Orenogalgame blog only.
- This will start from August releases.

Anime-*******
- Except matching Japanese uploaders, we will not post exclusive bonuses on Anime-*******.
- We are trying to move away from there, as the uploadersthere have no intention to ever, credit exclusive contents from us.
- We are under no obligation to provide content for otheruploaders to copy, let alone notifying them.

I'm not sure if this is the right place to post this but I had a concern about the recent massive attack on piracy in japan. I was wanting to become a vip member  but I'm really scared with how they are attacking every single site. Do you think you will be safe?

We are not even on that list of the most notorious sites. Not to mention we fully comply with all legimate DMCA requests received.

There are plenty of ways to bring down a website so I wouldn't say we are absolutely safe.
If in any doubt, use Bitcash / Webmoney that is anonymous. At the very least you will be safe.

Thank you for your reply. Another couple questions if I may.
1: I was planning on getting a Uploaded (Ul.to) premium account to help you out. I'm not sure what is actually required to buy from your site though for any of your listed file hosting sites.
2: I was choosing Uploaded (Ul.to) because it is the highest return at 55% but I noticed that you don't seem to upload any of the public releases to ul.to . Are there any plans to  fix that so that I could actually use the premium account for something lol.
3. I'm guessing the 55% is of the subscription price correct?  1 month $13.99/55% =769 clearance?)
4: how are the VIP files hosted? Your releases are usually quite large so I'm curious if I would need a premium file hosting service to download them anyway.
5: Lastly I;m not really sure what happens at the end of the lifetime access if you say get another month of a file hosting subscription or donate again. Does it reset the 20 months, or start a different counter?
I was wanting to help the site out and also get quick access to the public releases at the same time. I'm pretty sure I would have to both buy a premium subscription and donate to get enough clearance to download anything though.  Sorry for the huge amount of text.

1,2. Uploaded = Ul.to
3. $13.99 x 100 x 55%
4. VIP files are pasworded and hosted on one of our VPS using HTTP download. Just click the link and download the file, no special attention needed.
5. Say if you renew another month, you get 76900 Lifetime and 7690 Limit added to whatever value you have now. The 20 months is how long a typical single donation / premium lasts. It follows the same formula so there is no such thing as "reset".

Wow sorry I'm a complete idiot. I just now saw that for public releases all 4 links are provided. I only saw rapidgator and uploadable links because of the bright yellow/blue.
How do you actually buy a subscription from your site? I can't see you as a reseller.
So if my math was right $13.99/55% =769.45 Clearance? You mention "76900 Lifetime and 7690 Limit".  I seem to be missing something that's adding a 0. From reading the VIP membership page I'm kind of confused what the difference is between clearance and clearance limit. I just thought that (Clearance) Limit was the max it would grow to from the 15% monthly accumulation. So the max would be 769x10 so 7690 but still only an initial clearance of 769 from the $13.99 subscription. Am I doing my math totally wrong?  From what you posted it would be 7690? Sorry again if I'm being stupid.

You start off with 769 Clearance, and then it will increase by 15% per month, until it reaches 7690 (the limit) and goes no further.

On the other hand, every month when access is given out, it is subtracted from your remaining lifetime access. Once your lifetime access runs out, you do not get any access.

It is similar to an annuity plan.

You can send a Bitcash or Webmoney code by PM to me, or by purchasing premium account from any of the 4 file hosters we use. For details please see the VIP information area.

I'm not sure how to buy from your site though. Do I just purchase a  premium account from one of your links or is there another step?

Hi I have a quick question.

I found the game cg for [141128][エレクトリップ] 逆転魔女裁判 −痴女な魔女に裁かれちゃう−  here.
(http://r18.eroan.xyz/?mikocom/forum.php ... &extra=page%3D1)

I think you normally rip the cg from game by yourself, right?  I wonder if you have the actual game, and any plan to upload it later.

Thank you~
