Do the opponent's cards scale with your level or what? I think I didn't spent enough money on cards and now even the cheap dates are all outleveling me with their cards :(
Yes, in 0.08 and prior, it does scale with you but in 0.09, the upcoming update, we've overhauled the SMS system so that levels don't scale with you, instead you gain stars through the star rating system (how well the date went) and use it to unlock harder levels, so even if you feel too underlevelled, you'll be able to go back to easier dates and grind from there at your own pace.
The other one is also in her bedroom, the pillow riding one is actually the later one and the first solo one is her just flicking the bean on her bed. Keep trying until you get it but there's a chance there's the bug where it'll always play the solo scene you see even if the game has chosen to display the first one. That has been fixed by the current version, just forgot when I did it.
Is there anything anywhere that explains what the seasonal/weather bonuses actually do? I figure some effect card types by however many the symbol is, but it's not obvious and I couldn't find anything in the tutorials or help windows that explain them.
If you go to the 'web' app or the 'wikihow' app on the phone, there should be a section that says 'How does the weather work?' That section should also explain seasons.
Basically; -A sunny day gives +1 to ROCK -A windy day gives +1 to SCISSORS -A humid day gives +1 to PAPER
-Autumn gives +2 to ROCK cards -Spring gives +2 to SCISSORS cards -Winter gives +2 to PAPER cards -Summer gives no buffs, it's like the neutral season.
I feel like I'm missing something? I know you have to give gifts to increase affection but I don't know how. It's greyed out for me when I select a girl. Haven't really gotten any romance scenes for awhile either. No date options for the other roommates besides Juliet yet either
Ah yeah, that's true. That's actually something I can add into the game, since I've been seeing a handful of others forgetting that that a gift needs to be equipped first.
The card game is meant to be pretty simple. We've added the weather/seasonal buff mechanic which does incentivize players to build a deck around a certain card type over another. (Eg. Winter gives +2 on Paper).
When you say dating, you mean like taking the girls out on a date to level them up? We've thought about how much gameplay to add to it and we're open to adding a little mini-game for that kind of thing but we don't wanna make it too complex and content heavy as more characters and date locations get added, it kinda adds up.
Thank you so much for the feedback and enjoying the game otherwise!
Este juego es demasiado bueno espero ver cómo será cuando este terminado el único problema que tengo es que no se inglés y si se me dificulta un poco algunas cosas pero pues por lo que las como 4 o 10 horas que lo eh jugado me parece un juegazo espero algún día alguna traducción al español por ahora me tocará esperar 👍
¡Muchas gracias por jugar el juego! Las traducciones estarán lejos en el futuro simplemente por lo mucho que cambian las cosas, es difícil hacerlo a medida que avanza el desarrollo y es mejor hacerlo en grandes partes.
H-scenes are replayable when you unlock GF mode aka when you finish their storyline. You'll be able to do all the scenes in various other rooms and in front of other girls too.
yes, there is definitely luck involved, we've also added BIRD cards and the ultra sense system, as well as the power value and the weather buffs to add strategical elements into it but overall, we wanted a card game that was very simple and easy to understand and do without thinking too much.
Your stats play a big part in how much tips you get on SMS dates but also a big part on how much exp you gain with the girls to level them up. We've also rebalanced the reward unlocks in 0.10B to make it easier but for 0.08, I just suggest investing in your stats, that being in the health app and your outfit.
there should be an objective smack dab in the middle of the screen in giant letters that says whether or not you've bought enough packs. The X unlocks when you've accomplished that task.
Oh, that's because you bought packs that weren't "Bronze I", you have to specifically buy "Bronze I". You bought a Bronze II pack or something because you have cards with power of 4 on it. My suggestion is to redo the intro and only buy the first pack 3x. Also to note, don't sell any cards until you've done the objective. It probably messed up the calculations the game is doing.
Okay this game looks AWESOME!! It's super silly but I'm stuck at the very beginning- At the end of the first day I wanted to go to sleep but the protagonist said to check the mirror in the wardrobe first but I can't interact with the mirror? I tried to change clothes and all but the dialogues repeat itself... I don't know what I need to do here 😥
It's pretty simple, the game requires you 2 things; to open the wardrobe, and to visit Juliet. After all that is done, you're free to sleep and any other activities.
Oh my God thank you!! :') I reloaded a save file because I messed up with the gifts thing so I think that's why I got a little lost afterwards ahah I really love the game so far, great job!
Bird cards are cracked, that's all I can say about gameplay.
As for bugs, quite a few odd ones I cannot recreate yet, one with the futanari video on the Hub where it keeps replaying the scene regardless of progress, kinda bootlooped
Another is with the VIP girls, where they repeatedly ask you over and you'd be stuck doing old tasks with no benefit for half a day, well into night for Lilith
Another is a golden dragon statue where a missing texture kills the game's last few steps, ie force roleback
As for sound design, I know it is early but it would be easier to folly a slow sound then speed it up with pitch adjustment than to slow down sound with or without pitch adjustment
As for interface, please make it so the save & load section are moved forward 10 at a time, not the actual save selection
As for writing and scenes, lovely, just lovely. Characters are nicely done and have uniqueness and vim of their own. Scenes are nice, I'd love orgies but I know it's very early !! :)
Thank you so much for the feedback! Most of those have been fixed or updated in the latest Patreon version, including the h-scene sfx which got a nice overhaul.
I'm not sure what you mean about the save & load section though, I don't know what "forward 10 at a time" means. Forward 10 pixels?
For the BIRD cards, I'm unsure how broken they are but we've overhauled the SMS date system in 0.09 which adds static levels, zones, and a 5 star system that you receive based on how well you've succeeded. Those stars are then used to unlock stronger zones and you can only really get full 5 stars if you take- I think it's 10% of your health in damage or less. BIRD cards won't be able to prevent incoming damage.
The dev team has to decide if the focus of the game Sugar Service is supposed to be the card game or the story. If its the card game, then the game seems way too repetitive and simple for how long you have to play the game. If its the story, then the card game is way too grindy and should take up less percentage of playtime .
For sure, totally get that. As more content is added, we wanna offset that by allowing said content to be accessed easier through rebalances. We're definitely on team 'story is the main focus', which is why the card game at its current stage is very simple and we totally hear you about it being less grindy.
sell cards you buy and try to enhance your rizz (really) by clothing, then get better cards from shop and try to make a better assortment, after that make sure the season is right and weather is right, those have buffs
read the questions in the written out on the phone's browser
If you go to the web app on the in-game phone, there's a whole bunch of explanations on the different systems. Basically the stars are the times you successfully gifted and hungout with them, you'd need 3 of them (successfully gift and hangout 3 times) PLUS the heart icon to advance the story.
You could always leave a donation on itchio or simply by following the progression of the game, rating it 5 stars, and sharing it with people who also like playing these types of games
You can ignore any error333, as long as they dont crash the game, it's just there to let me know that players are accessing places they arent supposed to somehow but isn't game-breaking. Are you on the latest version of the game?
If you have 3 stars and a heart on the gift icon and the chapter isn't available, it probably means you need to visit her at another time, some chapters are room/time specific.
You can send it to the game's discord, the discord link should be on the page here.
Is it like a story-hangout or like a talk to her while in the bathroom hangout? Because she doesn't have a shower scene, when talking to the girls in the bathroom, they'll usually yell at you to get out, I would def need more context on what specifically is going on.
Did this game has inc$st? I think i getting very h0rn¥ while playing inc£st game…That becuase i dont have sister…so i imagine i want to have sister in game
I got myself my first bug. First time playing the Linora solo masturbation scene. After the scene ended the moans kept playing over for the rest of the game, no matter if I do other activities, dates, or reload the game. Hope to find some help
I've only played this for an hour, but that's for good reason. I really wanted to like this game due to NSFW games rarely having any gameplay elements, but man, do some of the decisions here suck.
The most noticeable thing is the absolute incoherent gameplay loop. While there is a tutorial at the beginning of each gameplay element, knowing what to do and when to do it is very hard. The player is supposed to memorise what each icon on the phone does, memorise what do from slight dialogue expressions since there's no way to find out after the fact, and also needs to figure out what each stat does.
The second turn-off is the part I was excited about, the gameplay. The card game thing. And while I do like it to a certain extent, it feels way too random to enjoy, especially considering how often you need to play it. By defintion, there is a 33% chance to deal damage, or 100% if you use the bird. Same applies to each round, and there's no logic that could help it, which means the game is complete RNG that prioritises bird cheese over actual strategy. It's similar to roulette, where you're taking a gamble on each turn. The difference is, in those games you can at least discern what has been played and what there is yet to be plaid. For instance, if there was a restriction of say, two cards of each type, it would be possible to predict the next move at least to a certain extent. Because then if the opponent has played two rocks, the rest of the cards can't be rocks, therefore paper cards are useless. The fact that the only way to disambiguate that is either through sheer luck or taking damage twice, is a major oversight. Fun concept, but horrible, horrible execution.
And listen, nobody likes hand-holdy games. I'm not asking for that. But at the same time, playing games blindfolded without a guiding voice is even worse. Just... Try to make this game a little more playable for new players. You're doing good, but for these two reasons, I just can't play it. Sorry.
Hey! Really appreciate the very thorough review and totally get your personal criticisms with the game at it's current public version stage. I understand your issues with the card game and it has evolved a little bit over time, with the introduction to consumables that allows players to better swing things into their advantage, and the weather system buffing and debuffing certain card types to give players an incentive to run certain decks over others each in-game season. I'm also currently trying to figure out ways to see if I could implement more systems that give player more information on the field and strategic agency without it being a clear; if x occurs, always do y.
Ultimately, big fans of TCGs would definitely be disappointed at this card game's shallowness and that is the choice I decided to make as that isn't the core area of game that I wanted to put all my energy and resources into. It's simply used as a means of pacing the dating-sim aspect out with a simple gameplay mechanic that everyone could understand and plow through if they so wish.
As for the apps and just what to do in general, we've been adding more and more 'notes' in later updates about what the objectives are meant to be and especially in 0.08, we've added the web app that goes over many questions and aspects of what the different systems in the game are and how they interact with each other. Your point about getting lost in the phone and not knowing what everything does is valid and we will look into adding toggle-able app names and introductory messages on what the app's function is when first opening them.
I keep on giving gifts for everyone, but for some reason Linora and Willow is not making advancement in their stories. I do have the three stars when I check in the phone contacts app, but it is not triggering anything. Do I have to keep on giving them gifts, or did I run into a bug
I dont have proof of this, and I dont know if its intentional but while sleeping with willow after inviting her, for some reason results in having sex with lilith, and i can repeat this action, and I haven't even unlocked anything with Lilith.
Yes, thats a morning sex bug where lilith's morning sex content isn't properly implemented, I'd avoid asking anyone to sleep with you for the time being. It has been fixed for later versions.
i am loving the game, but unfortunately i keep getting a message saying "error: [name]333", name being lillith, or maggie, etc. is there any way i can fix this?
there's nothing to fix, it's just a message to tell me that you're accessing an area you aren't suppose to. As long as the game's not breaking, just ignore it. I've fixed it for later versions
Hey, this bug occurs when you're trying to redo her boss battle in that particular chapter, it doesn't happen when you first do it. The bug has been fixed for later versions and I'll be releasing a new PUBLIC version in a few week. My suggestion if you're able to is to reload back to a save point before you first talked to her in that chapter.
Unlikely but very not impossibly no. We're mainly targeting a hetero demographic with some queer content so if there is enough demand for mlm/gay content, it could be done in the far future as DLC. We currently do have a nonbinary character, Quinni with a penis (though the genitalia is based on player choice).
How do i progress Juliet? isn`t 13 lvl enough to just try to give her presents? I can`t understand how to progress anybody. The present icon is grey all the time
You need to have 3 stars with Juliet. To give girls presents, you'll have to first equip the gift in the inventory so that the gift icon is in the bottom right of the bag. The lack of stars on the gift option tells me that you haven't given her gifts yet at this stage. This gift giving is the core part of progressing with all the other girls too. Leveling her through the management is more so about unlocking new outfits and gaining higher profit every week

Do the opponent's cards scale with your level or what? I think I didn't spent enough money on cards and now even the cheap dates are all outleveling me with their cards :(
Yes, in 0.08 and prior, it does scale with you but in 0.09, the upcoming update, we've overhauled the SMS system so that levels don't scale with you, instead you gain stars through the star rating system (how well the date went) and use it to unlock harder levels, so even if you feel too underlevelled, you'll be able to go back to easier dates and grind from there at your own pace.
Where do I find Willow's second solo scene? I've only seen the one where she's riding the pillow.
The other one is also in her bedroom, the pillow riding one is actually the later one and the first solo one is her just flicking the bean on her bed. Keep trying until you get it but there's a chance there's the bug where it'll always play the solo scene you see even if the game has chosen to display the first one. That has been fixed by the current version, just forgot when I did it.
I'm on the latest version. Is it just random which one plays? And do you need to do something and come back to re-trigger the randomness?
it is random every time you enter the room location but I do remember a solo scene having both A and B triggers go to the B scene.
Hi, this game has some belly bulging due to MC's cock size?
It does not.
I'm just in the beginning stages so far, the story is fun but the gameplay is a bit grindy. Is there any futa on mc content? If not you should add it!
We have Quinni which has the option for penis or vagina
Does quinni take the, shall we say, dominant role?
Both characters are vers but she's definitely the dom in the literal meaning.
I did a move on Maggie, that caused us both to have negative hp, and the game crashed
I'll try and find it, that seems to be a pretty rare instance. I suggest just redoing that boss battle and try not to end in a draw. Sorry about that.
no need to apologize, I thought it was a funny bug, and decided to report it.
Is there anything anywhere that explains what the seasonal/weather bonuses actually do? I figure some effect card types by however many the symbol is, but it's not obvious and I couldn't find anything in the tutorials or help windows that explain them.
If you go to the 'web' app or the 'wikihow' app on the phone, there should be a section that says 'How does the weather work?' That section should also explain seasons.

-A windy day gives +1 to SCISSORS
-A humid day gives +1 to PAPER
-Autumn gives +2 to ROCK cards
-Spring gives +2 to SCISSORS cards
-Winter gives +2 to PAPER cards
-Summer gives no buffs, it's like the neutral season.
I completely missed that entry somehow. Thanks!
I feel like I'm missing something? I know you have to give gifts to increase affection but I don't know how. It's greyed out for me when I select a girl. Haven't really gotten any romance scenes for awhile either. No date options for the other roommates besides Juliet yet either
Have you equipped the gift in the inventory? The game doesn't know what gift you wanna give.
Thanks! I had no idea you had to equip the gift. I figured it would just pull up a menu after hitting the button.
Ah yeah, that's true. That's actually something I can add into the game, since I've been seeing a handful of others forgetting that that a gift needs to be equipped first.
The card gameplay is so fucking hard holy shit
Sorry to hear, could try a different deck build? Utilize BIRD cards more or try and hoard some consumables to swing things into your advantage.
Pretty good so far.
I'm fine with the rock, paper, scissors core cards, though I would like to see it branch out to allow for different types of decks to be built.
I also hope dating gets expanded on. Feels like it should have more to it gameplay-wise.
The Art is fun, and I like the little references also!
Definitely a game I'll keep my eye on.
The card game is meant to be pretty simple. We've added the weather/seasonal buff mechanic which does incentivize players to build a deck around a certain card type over another. (Eg. Winter gives +2 on Paper).

How do I access an H scene with a character after I've unlocked it? I only see the masturbation ones
H-scenes are replayable when you unlock GF mode aka when you finish their storyline. You'll be able to do all the scenes in various other rooms and in front of other girls too.
At what chapter is gf mode?
After chapter 10, aka the end of the story.
I'm trying to complete Juliet's chapter 10, but nothing happens. I've got 3 stars on her gifts and ive hung out with her several times
Might have to trigger it in a specific room or a different time, a handful of chapters are like that.
the rock and sissors style isn t funny, it just luck over all
yes, there is definitely luck involved, we've also added BIRD cards and the ultra sense system, as well as the power value and the weather buffs to add strategical elements into it but overall, we wanted a card game that was very simple and easy to understand and do without thinking too much.
it's still luck, and isn't funny, deck building isn't funny too because of lack of mechanics with cards
What is the fastest way to level up a character? It seems so slow for me
Your stats play a big part in how much tips you get on SMS dates but also a big part on how much exp you gain with the girls to level them up. We've also rebalanced the reward unlocks in 0.10B to make it easier but for 0.08, I just suggest investing in your stats, that being in the health app and your outfit.
I can't play IT on phone, when i open the pack i can't go back bcs there isnt aby X to exit that pack opener or deck
there should be an objective smack dab in the middle of the screen in giant letters that says whether or not you've bought enough packs. The X unlocks when you've accomplished that task.
The game does'nt register that I bought the packs needed (I bought the max amount of my money)... Pls fix
I don't know what there is to fix? Unless you give me a screenshot or a video, it seems to be working for everyone else.
It does'nt register that i bought even more that 3... And if i sell some cards the number goes back
Oh, that's because you bought packs that weren't "Bronze I", you have to specifically buy "Bronze I". You bought a Bronze II pack or something because you have cards with power of 4 on it. My suggestion is to redo the intro and only buy the first pack 3x. Also to note, don't sell any cards until you've done the objective. It probably messed up the calculations the game is doing.
Okay this game looks AWESOME!!
It's super silly but I'm stuck at the very beginning-
At the end of the first day I wanted to go to sleep but the protagonist said to check the mirror in the wardrobe first but I can't interact with the mirror? I tried to change clothes and all but the dialogues repeat itself...
I don't know what I need to do here 😥
It's pretty simple, the game requires you 2 things; to open the wardrobe, and to visit Juliet. After all that is done, you're free to sleep and any other activities.
Oh my God thank you!! :')
I reloaded a save file because I messed up with the gifts thing so I think that's why I got a little lost afterwards ahah
I really love the game so far, great job!
Glad it's fixed and working now! Enjoy
Bird cards are cracked, that's all I can say about gameplay.

Have you equipped the gift in your inventory yet? The game probably doesn't know which gift you wanna give.
Thank you!
Very interesting art style but the grind on this game is insane. These level up thresholds are crazy.
We've rebalanced the game in future versions and will continue to rebalance based on content amount.
The dev team has to decide if the focus of the game Sugar Service is supposed to be the card game or the story. If its the card game, then the game seems way too repetitive and simple for how long you have to play the game. If its the story, then the card game is way too grindy and should take up less percentage of playtime .

We're definitely on team 'story is the main focus', which is why the card game at its current stage is very simple and we totally hear you about it being less grindy.
how to win the card game against Juliet and other characters. It's so hard
level up and have stronger cards, like pokemon.
sell cards you buy and try to enhance your rizz (really) by clothing, then get better cards from shop and try to make a better assortment, after that make sure the season is right and weather is right, those have buffs
read the questions in the written out on the phone's browser
How do the "relationships" of the stars over the hearts work/work? And how to develop them?
If you go to the web app on the in-game phone, there's a whole bunch of explanations on the different systems. Basically the stars are the times you successfully gifted and hungout with them, you'd need 3 of them (successfully gift and hangout 3 times) PLUS the heart icon to advance the story.
How can I support the author of the game if I'm from the CIS, I can't top up paypal
You could always leave a donation on itchio or simply by following the progression of the game, rating it 5 stars, and sharing it with people who also like playing these types of games
this has happened twice, but I have given Maggie a gift then there's the talking and afterwards it says "Maggie error:333" is the supposed to happen?
You can ignore any error333, as long as they dont crash the game, it's just there to let me know that players are accessing places they arent supposed to somehow but isn't game-breaking. Are you on the latest version of the game?
Im on the latest free version, i just wanted to make sure there wasnt something wrong
yo where does Lilith's story end?
If you have 3 stars and a heart on the gift icon and the chapter isn't available, it probably means you need to visit her at another time, some chapters are room/time specific.
i cant hang out with Linora when she is in shower
when i press hang out it directs me to the balcony(im in mobile device and idk how to send video)
You can send it to the game's discord, the discord link should be on the page here.
Is it like a story-hangout or like a talk to her while in the bathroom hangout? Because she doesn't have a shower scene, when talking to the girls in the bathroom, they'll usually yell at you to get out, I would def need more context on what specifically is going on.
YU NARUKAMI!?!
LMAOO yeah, this is his story after persona, after graduating.
I should put his outfits in the game.
Oh dang- thanks for reporting that. I'll have a hotfix out soon to fix it.
A patch (0.08B_b) is up that fixes that
Any chance for preg?
Very very unlikely. Don't hold your hopes out for it. It'll kinda make it a logistical nightmare for the content we have planned out in the future.
its cool, just checking
Did this game has inc$st? I think i getting very h0rn¥ while playing inc£st game…That becuase i dont have sister…so i imagine i want to have sister in game
This game does not.
I can help you find those kind of games it's not hard to
is the offer still standing?
Definitely you paying money? (JK) (Unless you want to 😂😂)
I've been looking for games with that kind of content but haven't found any good ones, if you have a recommendation I will gladly take it
Is there a way to get ahold of you?
I got myself my first bug. First time playing the Linora solo masturbation scene. After the scene ended the moans kept playing over for the rest of the game, no matter if I do other activities, dates, or reload the game. Hope to find some help
Hey, I'd just suggest back tracking to before the masturbation scene and avoiding it that way. That bug has been fixed for future versions.
I've only played this for an hour, but that's for good reason. I really wanted to like this game due to NSFW games rarely having any gameplay elements, but man, do some of the decisions here suck.

As for the apps and just what to do in general, we've been adding more and more 'notes' in later updates about what the objectives are meant to be and especially in 0.08, we've added the web app that goes over many questions and aspects of what the different systems in the game are and how they interact with each other. Your point about getting lost in the phone and not knowing what everything does is valid and we will look into adding toggle-able app names and introductory messages on what the app's function is when first opening them.
Thanks for trying the game!

Spanish?
Maybe in the future? Translations a bit iffy to implement unless it's done in large batches so I'm holding off for now.

Bueno gracias
I wanna marry all the characters and the dev too.
wow buy us dinner first
thank you~ I'm glad you like the game
Omgg!11!1!!
I keep on giving gifts for everyone, but for some reason Linora and Willow is not making advancement in their stories. I do have the three stars when I check in the phone contacts app, but it is not triggering anything. Do I have to keep on giving them gifts, or did I run into a bug
Did you run into the 'end of the story' message? It may be the end of their story.
No, I did not. In the phone app it still shows on the counter that there are more content.
Those could possibly be outfits and H-scenes. There's a lot of outfits to unlock.
I dont have proof of this, and I dont know if its intentional but while sleeping with willow after inviting her, for some reason results in having sex with lilith, and i can repeat this action, and I haven't even unlocked anything with Lilith.
Yes, thats a morning sex bug where lilith's morning sex content isn't properly implemented, I'd avoid asking anyone to sleep with you for the time being. It has been fixed for later versions.
Alright will do, thanks for replying.
How to sleep
Fixed just had to not instant play card battles until night
Yup! Glad you managed to fix it, I've fixed it in later versions so it's impossible to card battle until you've unlocked the ability to sleep
Help!! How do I leave the card deck screen! There's no X button anywhere :c
Hi, the game literally tells you to buy some packs before you can leave.
I realized that shortly after I asked the question 😭
No worries, I get asked that a lot but later versions I literally have the task ON the screen so it's like absolutely clear
I wish we could dress the other characters
You can. They have to be at at least chapter 3 and in their rooms/house.
i am loving the game, but unfortunately i keep getting a message saying "error: [name]333", name being lillith, or maggie, etc. is there any way i can fix this?
there's nothing to fix, it's just a message to tell me that you're accessing an area you aren't suppose to. As long as the game's not breaking, just ignore it. I've fixed it for later versions
gotcha!! makes sense :) thank you!
I'm getting a bug when trying to do the 3rd Linora scene
Hey, this bug occurs when you're trying to redo her boss battle in that particular chapter, it doesn't happen when you first do it. The bug has been fixed for later versions and I'll be releasing a new PUBLIC version in a few week. My suggestion if you're able to is to reload back to a save point before you first talked to her in that chapter.
Do you plan on adding gay content?
Unlikely but very not impossibly no. We're mainly targeting a hetero demographic with some queer content so if there is enough demand for mlm/gay content, it could be done in the far future as DLC. We currently do have a nonbinary character, Quinni with a penis (though the genitalia is based on player choice).
alright. Also amazing game so far! Keep up the good work!
How do i progress Juliet? isn`t 13 lvl enough to just try to give her presents? I can`t understand how to progress anybody. The present icon is grey all the time
You need to have 3 stars with Juliet. To give girls presents, you'll have to first equip the gift in the inventory so that the gift icon is in the bottom right of the bag. The lack of stars on the gift option tells me that you haven't given her gifts yet at this stage. This gift giving is the core part of progressing with all the other girls too. Leveling her through the management is more so about unlocking new outfits and gaining higher profit every week
I really like the unique gameplay of this game!
Thanks! Glad you do :D
