I'm not going to do a full walkthrough now, maybe later if I have time. However something I can do is list all the items/gifts based on the character who will like them. This should be already helpful for those struggling to get the endings.
Here it is, the first item on list is the one the character will like more:
Darren:
Kurt:
Ted:
Jeff:

Hi, I'm struggling a bit with any special/mystery ending and I hope it's okay if I ask here.
The first boy I pursued was Kurt. I've maxed out our relationship to 100, my zeal is 999 and my clue stat is also maxed out at 999. But I can only get the normal ending. How comes?

You didn't unlock all the mystery scenes then. Like with romance, you must not wait too much before investigating. You need to play all the 8 mystery scenes for the special ending to appear.

Um, before I actually play the whole game again, do you mind...listing the scenes for each guy and the mystery scenes as well? I kinda lost count everytime and end up getting the normal romantic end
Note: You said the game ends on 21st Dec, but it always ends on 17th Dec... And then I get the normal romantic end >< Shouldn't it end on the 21st though? There will be more time for the scenes to play right? @@

Well 21st is the "last deadline", then depending on how you unlock the scenes it can happen before. In general each scene happens XX days of distance, so you could have the 9th scene the 13 and the last one the 17 (some scenes requires specific days of week, like not in the weekend).
I think you simply need to raise the clues value faster - to get the mystery endings is better to reach the 999 clues sooner than the relationships values.
In practice there's the last mystery scene where you discover an abandoned building. If that scene doesn't play first, you get normal romance ending.

Man, I've played the game three times now and I love it, but I can't get anything but the Very Bad Ending. I've gone for Darren each time, 999 wit, 999 clues as early as I possibly can. I don't do anything but raise Clues and Wit from the start. And without help I figured out all the gifts and proper responses, but I still always get the Very Bad Ending. Each time I've gotten past the scene at the abandoned building too. And past the scene where Darren runs away. Do I just suck at (simulated) life?

No you're simply raising the wrong stat. Darren's associated stat is NOT WIT. Check the first post of this thread

It's affirmative. I suck at life. Yikes. Thank you for your sage wisdom.

Oh you're not the only one that raised the wrong stat, no worries

Just going to add my two cents here.. because I was confused by this myself.. if you do unlock the mystery ending with any guy, you will see the normal ending first. So.. don't panic like I did when you see "normal ending unlocked" and you've got all the right stats for the mystery ending, cause the game doesn't end there.. xD I'd say this game doesn't need a full fledged "walkthrough" I mean.. gifts, stats, and explaining that you should probably get clues up to max before maxing a relationship value seems to be plenty, and scenes unlock on their own with the right stats soo.. yup. Though as simple as that sounds, it still seemed to have caused confusion.
I only got one ending so far, but I'd like to write up my current thoughts about the game..
First I have to say I love Nicole, she has much more personality than most heroines, even if said personality irked me every now and then, hahah. I love her various outfits and she is overall a very pretty girl. I dunno about anyone else, but I love it when the heroine in an otome game is by normal standards, pretty darn attractive. Speaking of characters, I very much hate two of the four guys ^^;.. their personalities anyway, as characters they are pretty awesome. -cough Jeff and Kurt -cough- I also like how
Gameplay was smooth for me.. being the noob that I am though, I chose to play on easy. Just my preference, if I screw over a save file too badly, I'd like to not spend hours upon hours redoing what progress I made. x.x this is why I thought it was a wonderful idea to warn players of when the romance path was pretty much going to be set in the game, I did make a different save for that spot to go back and try for the other guys.
Writing was great, and actually made me laugh out loud quite a few times with the humor. Well.. your games are just getting better and better.
Seriously, keep it up~ same goes to the wonderful artist, loved this style in Always Remember Me, very glad to see it back.
So yeah.. had a lot of fun, looking forward to the other three paths.
