Changes to Auctions[edit | edit source]

In rule "Phases", replace the text "The Bartering Phase" with "The Resolution Phase".

In rule "The Auction Casino" subrule "Prizes", replace the text "the Bartering Phase" with "the Resolution Phase".

In rule "The Auction Casino", replace subrule "Lots" with subrule "The Auction House" containing the following text:

There is an entity called the Auction House, also known as the House. The House can own items and holds the weekly Auction. The weekly Auction has a number of House Lots and a number of Player Lots. If a player wins a bid on a lot, the House gives the items in that Lot to the winning player. If there is ever a Lot that does not contain any items, that Lot is removed from the Auction House.

House Lots can contain only exactly 3 cards. If, at any time during the Resolution Phase, the number of House Lots currently in the weekly Auction is less than the Participation value of the Auction Casino, any player may generate a new House Lot by generating 3 cards to fulfill that lot.

During the Resolution Phase a player may create a Player Lot entity in the Auction House, clearly assigning the items to be owned by that Player Lot. The items assigned are transferred from the Player to the Player Lot.

If a Player Lot is won at the Auction House, then a number of chips equal to the value of the winning bid is transferred from the player that placed the winning bid to the player that created the Player Lot. When an Auction Phase ends, any Player Lots that have no Secret Bid Actions awaiting their revelation date transfer all items they own to the player that created them, and then cease to exist.

In rule "The Auction Casino", add subrule "Bidding on Works of Art" with the following text:

During the Resolution Phase, so long as there is still at least one Secret Bid Action awaiting its revelation date, any player may generate the bid of a Third-Party Auctioneer on a given Lot containing a Work of Art. The bid of the auctioneer must be generated as a random integer between 75% of the Value of the Work of Art and 150% of the Value of the Work of Art.

If a bid for a Work of Art is won by a player and the Value of that Work of Art is less than the winning bid amount, then the Value of that Work of Art is increased to match the winning bid amount. If a Third-Party Auctioneer wins the bid on a Lot containing a Work of Art, then the Work of Art is removed from its Lot and gets placed in the Gallery.

In rule "The Auction Casino" subrule "Participation", replace the following text:

"2 of every player who bid in the previous auction for card lots"

with:

"2 for every player that bid in the previous weekly Auction"

In rule "Phases" add a bullet point to this list after the sentence "The wealth value of an asset-owning entity is the sum of the following:":

The total wealth value of the items in Player Lots that were created by that player

Base changes to Tables[edit | edit source]

In rule "Tables" amend the following text:

"A player may sit down at a Table by announcing their intent to do so in the appropriate channel (#tables, unless otherwise specified)."

with:

A player may sit down at a Table by announcing their intent to do so in the appropriate channel (#tables, unless otherwise specified), specifying clearly which table they are sitting at.

and add the following sentence to the end of that same paragraph:

"If a player has been sitting at a table for more than 24 hours, they automatically stand up."

Supply names for Existing Tables[edit | edit source]

In subrule "Slots" amend the following line to the beginning of the subrule:

"Available tables: Raven's Quest, Klinko Plinko, Disciple's Revenge, Father Frack, Rose Garden, 9 Lives"

In subrule "War" amend the following line to the beginning of the subrule:

"Available table: The Great War, The Trojans, Attack on Trungle"

Add the Studio Table[edit | edit source]

In rule "Tables" add the following subrule:

The Studio[edit | edit source]

Available Tables: Haiku Night, Canvas Randy, Ex Nihilus, Zepho Studios

The Studio is a Limited Access Table that a player may sit down at once per week by announcing their intent to do so in #the-studio.

Works of art have the following attributes: A Title, a Description, and a Value.

While sitting at the Studio Table, a player may spend 50 chips to create a single Work of Art in their possession. To create a Work of Art, the player must post a message to #the-studio, providing a Title for the Work of Art no more than 30 characters in length and a Description of the Work of Art no more than 400 characters in length. A player's attempt at creating a Work of Art fails if they do not have at least 50 chips to lose.

The initial Value of a Work of Art is determined by generating an integer between 1 and the Participation Value of the Auction Casino when the Work of Art is created, then multiplying by 4.

Tweak Slots a Bit[edit | edit source]

In subrule "Slots" amend the following sentence:

"Values of the same kind must be sequential in the rolls to count."

with:

"Values of the same kind do not need to be sequential."

In subrule "Slots" amend the Roll table with the following table:

Roll	Value
20	♾
17-19	🔺
14-16	🃏
10-13	✨
6-9	🤔
1-5	🦆

and amend the Payouts table with the following table:

-Goals for this proposal include:
+== Changes to Auctions ==
-* Add art and  art/arbitrary user auctions
-* Add horse racing, see if we can make it fun for regular play.
-* Rework slots a bit. I'd like to see bigger payouts with a lower chance of winning, but similar averages. That way you win less often, but a win feels better than "yay I got 2 fukkin chips look at me"

During the Bartering Phase, so long as there are no existing secret or non-secret bids on any Lots, a player may take down an item they own from Auction in the Auction House, removing its Lot. If an item contained by a Lot ever ceases to exist, its Lot is removed from the Auction House. An item that is up for Auction remains up for Auction until it is taken down by its owner or until the Lot containing the item is won. If a lot containing a player-owned item is won at the Auction House, then a number of chips equal to the value of the winning bid is transferred to the owner of the item and the item is transferred to the player that placed the winning bid.

-In rule '''"Tables"''' add the following subrules:
-==== The Studio ====
-The Studio is a Limited Access Table that a player may sit down at once per week by announcing their intent to do so in #the-studio.
-Works of art have the following attributes: A Title, a Description, and a Value
-While sitting at the Studio Table, a player may spend 50 chips to create a single Work of Art in their possession. To create a Work of Art, the player must post a message to #the-studio, providing a Title for the Work of Art no more than 30 characters in length and a Description of the Work of Art no more than 200 characters in length. A player's attempt at creating a Work of Art fails if they do not have at least 50 chips to lose.
-The initial Value of a Work of Art is determined by generating an integer between 1 and the Participation Value of the Auction Casino when the Work of Art is created, then multiplying by 4.
-==== Off to the Races ====
-''Gosh this is long. We need to add a prize in general here, probably trungs for the winner to start out.''
-''In general, my conclusion is that players won't play with the "interesting" games unless they are additive to the economy in some way. With that in mind, we should also probably get rid of the 10% house fee.''
-Off to the Races is a Limitless Access Table that multiple players may sit down at by announcing their intent to do so in #the-raceway.
-After a player sits down at this table, but before the Race begins, that player must choose to enter a Horse in the Race. To do so, the Player must select a Name (consisting of at most 18 characters) and a card they own to represent their Horse. A player may not enter a Horse in the Race that has the same name or is represented by the same card as another Horse.
-When all players sitting at the Table have entered a horse in the Race, ensure that at least 4 horses have been entered in the Race. If there are fewer than 4 horses entered in the Race, then the remaining number of horses are generated by drawing that many cards. These are NPC horses. NPC horses have a name that is the name of the card drawn for them, and properties equal to the Suit and Rank of the card drawn for them. If an NPC horse has identical properties to a horse already entered in the Race, continue drawing cards until a valid horse is entered. Once the above criteria has been met, betting may begin.
-When betting begins, any player (including those not sitting at the Table) may place bets on the horses they think will win. When a player bets, they lose that many chips. A bet fails if the player does not have enough chips to place that bet. The total sum of bets on all horses is known as the prize pool. When all  players that have expressed interest to bet have done so, or after an hour has passed since the last bet was placed, 10% of the prize pool (rounded down to the nearest whole number) is removed, and the Race begins.
-The Length of the Race is equal to the number of horses that have been entered in the Race multiplied by 2. A horse wins the Race when they have a Position that is greater than the Length of the Race. The Race ends when one or more horses win the Race. When the Race begins, all horses in the Race start with a Position of 0.
-To progress the Race, any player with a horse in the race may perform a Race Action. The Race Action may be taken until one or more horses win the race.
-Race Action: Draw a card, all horses in the race that share a suit, rank or color with the drawn card increase their position by 1.  If no horses share a suit, rank or color with the drawn card, all horses' positions increase by 1.
-A Lap Action may only be taken if, at any time all horses surpass a given position for the first time. When this happens,  a Lap action must be performed once before another Race Action can be taken. Any player with a horse in the race may choose to perform the Lap Action.
-Lap Action:  Draw a card,  all horses in the race that share a suit, rank, or color with the drawn card decrease their positions by 1.
-After the Race ends, each player that had a winning horse in the Race receives an amount of chips as winnings. If multiple horses won, the prize pool is divided evenly among the winning horses (rounded down). The winnings each horse a player bet on is equal to (P/W)*B, where P is the amount of the prize pool allocated to that horse, W is the total amount wagered on that horse, and B is the amount of chips the player bet on that horse. If a horse wins that was not entered by a player, then the winnings for that horse are awarded to nobody.
-If a player stands up from the table before the Race ends, their horse continues racing, but any winnings that player may have gotten go to nobody. Play for this Table ends when all players have stood up, or when the Race ends and awards have been given out.
