merchandise booth (regains)

[stagemanagers]

So what is this?
The Concession Stand located in the eastern hallway also sells show merchandise! This is a place where characters can obtain items, both strange and familiar! ICly, characters will wake up to find coins deposited on their vanity from time to time. These can be traded here for a randomly selected item.

What are these coins?
ICly, they’re just unmarked coins of no recognizable origin. OOCly, coins are awarded for every five comments from your character in a thread. Multiple increments in one thread for multiple coins ARE allowed up to five, or 25 comments!

Any threads between player characters that do not take place during investigations, trials and motive announcements are eligible for a coin. Threads with mod NPCs such as the showrunner are eligible for coins as well, but the one catch to this is that private conversations and letters do not count – the thread must take place in public

Why should I buy your weird merch?
What, besides cool new stuff? Well, okay.

This is where you have the chance to get those five regains you put down in your app. It's all up to the RNG, of course, and you may even end up getting someone else's belongings instead. You’ve got a 10% chance of getting a regain, yours or someone else’s, with every coin submitted, so keep those threads a-comin’!

Renewable items?
One out of your five items can be renewable – that is, they have the potential to come out of the booth more than one time. They can be consumable things like food, candy, liquor or cigarettes; they can also be things like yarn, socks, whatever you like!

Do coins expire? Do my coins have to be from this week?
Eligible threads don't expire! For example, you can still submit week 1 and intro log threads after week 1 ends.

My threadmate turned in our thread already. Do I have to turn it in too to get a coin?
Yep!

The character I was threading with died. Can I still get paid for interacting with them?
WHY NOT. Dead characters can no longer redeem coins, but you living do whatever you want.

I have a thread with an NPC. Can I submit that too?
Yes! As long as it's in a public post (ex. a weekly log or afterparty) those are acceptable.

What’s this I hear about song rewards?
Excellent question! Threads which include a song can be redeemed for one additional free coin! Only song participants get this bonus, so if your character didn’t sing, the thread will be worth the normal amount of coins. On the other hand, all song participants get a bonus, so a duet will result in extra coins for both performers!

When you have a thread long enough to be redeemed, comment below with a link to the thread. Please include the number of comments and, if possible, number of total coins from your character in each thread you submit. The mods will respond with sweet loot accordingly.

1. Sandbag: A small sandbag. It only weighs a few pounds. 

2. The Lizard and I: A small green lizard. Yes, it's alive.

3. Amber Chunk: A gnarled chunk of amber. It is incredibly hard and impossible to break by normal means.

4. Efron Poster: A framed poster of Zac Efron. It doesn't say his name, though, so most of you probably won't know who he is anyway.

5. Opera Glasses: A pair of old-fashioned opera glasses, like little binoculars with a stick. They look antique, but still work well.

6. Grammy: A small medal on a pedestal. Congratulations; you've won!

7. The Lyin' King: A soft lion-skin rug. Take a load off, have a nap, watch out for wildebeests.

8. Rainbow Fantasy Jacket: A coat of many colors! It is red and yellow and green and brown and blue...

9. Doctor's Costume: The package says it's a doctor's costume, but what kind of doctor dresses like this?

10. A Law Textbook: A law school textbook, still in the plastic wrap.

11. Red Vines: Share one with your new best friend. Red Vines- What the hell can't they do?! 

12. The Ultimate Treasure: A pair of tickets, apparently to a show called Hamilton. The vending machine slides them over with an odd air of reverence.

13. Pom-Poms: A pair of red and white cheerleading pom-poms. Hurrah!

14. Black Hat: A pointed black hat. It's really sharp - and you know what they say. Black is this year's pink!

15. Chocolate Strawberry Oasis Pie: A silky, bittersweet chocolate pie topped with fresh strawberries. It tastes heavenly.

16. Singing Ginseng Tea: Ginseng tea that really sings! Don't let the tea bags fly away.

17. 76 Trombones: Seventy-six trombones fall out of the merchandise booth. Fucking rip.

18. Maglite: A pen-sized flashlight. For some reason, the light inside is blue.

19. Green Elixir: Have another drink, my dark-eyed beauty... A green liquid in a small bottle made of frosted green glass. Drinking it will reveal that it is 1) very tasty and 2) straight absinthe.

20. Black Mask: A black domino mask. Great for hiding your identity.
