AUGUR REWARDS (KARMA).

AUGUR REWARDS



Augur Shop



Simulation Shop



COMPLETING AN ACT: What does this mean?
A square is "checked off" when a thread reaches its thematic focus. For instance, the moment a character is blindfolded. Additionally, players can choose to submit threads-in-progress for small reward, or completed threads for larger rewards. These thread submissions will be separate from bingo card submissions.

Good things happen to those who smang. You can request items from home, changes to the world, or other mysterious things.

What counts as a smut thread?
Any thread where eroticism is the focus. There doesn't have to be penetration or orgasm. A striptease? Sure. Sexting? That's fine, too. The criteria here is very lenient, because the intent is to get characters intimate in any way the players are comfortable making it happen.

When is a thread "complete"?
When a thread reaches a point of natural conclusion. A few comments could still happen after or players may fade to done, but when the story (and kinks) in a thread has concluded, it counts as completed.

Explain this "karmic reward" stuff.
Karma can go towards individual rewards or community rewards. You can trade a karmic reward for "finding a house with a roof" or "finding a motorcycle with a tank of gas," or you can pool rewards to "renovate the community center so characters have a place to congregate."


TYPES OF BINGOS AND MULTI-KINKS
What types of bingo can we submit?
  • Row - Any five kinks going across
  • Line - Any five kinks going down
  • Diagonal - Any five kinks going from a top corner to the opposite bottom corner
  • X - Two opposing diagonals crossing in the center
  • Plus Sign - The middle horizontal and the middle vertical line crossing in the center
  • Border - All kinks on the outside of the card are completed

What is a multi-kink thread?
You can also acquire something unique for a multi-kink bingo thread. A multi-kink is when you cross off a specific arrangement of kinks from your card in a Single Thread (however, only one of those kinks can be permanently checked off on your A5 card).
  • Postage Stamp - Any 2x2 box of kinks (4 kinks) in one thread
  • Row/Line - A horizontal or vertical combination of 5 kinks in one thread
  • X - Two opposing diagonals' worth of kinks in one thread
  • Plus Sign - One horizontal and one vertical set of kinks in one thread

Are Bingos and Multi-kink threads the same?
No, a Bingo involves Five squares fulfilled by Five threads. A Multi-Kink thread is four or five kinks on your card in ONE single thread. When making a request, please be sure that you are following the guidelines for the right type of reward.


REWARDS: So, what do I get?
I'm glad you asked! These are only examples. You can request the specific reward and a mod will approve or tweak it based on this sliding scale.

An in-progress thread may include a week's worth of non-aphro food rations, a small appliance, or the luck of scavenging a new outfit. You could also get paper or a small amount of hygiene supplies.

A completed thread might be a vehicle or mecha (without fuel), a pet, or the return of a type of plant or animal to the world, or a private safe haven. A weapon request requires a completed thread, but will be limited. For more advanced weapons or a large amount of ammunition, a multi-kink bingo thread may be requested.

A bingo reward might be that robots finish constructing a building to make it free for public use, taking a prominent role in a gamewide plot, or the development of new or existing powers. A full bingo or multi-kink bingo would be sufficient for asking for large scale personal safe havens such as a mansion.

A multi-kink thread is worth more than a completed thread. A player used a multi-kink thread to request a day of sunlight for the game. Another player did the same for our brief winter season! Personal power upgrades and new special abilities also fall under multi-kink bingo. Here are some more setting-specific options..

A general scale to remember is that incomplete threads are tiny rewards (food, paper, hygiene items). Complete squares are bigger rewards but limited ones (such as one animal returning, or vehicle or mecha with no fuel or weapons, a few new books in the library). Multi-kink bingo threads are larger rewards (a mansion, large businesses, or effecting the weather) or a few smaller rewards in one. A complete bingo is a larger scale reward for yourself or to influence the entire game (such as the amusement park).

Also please remember that requesting magical artifacts for a character who does not have magic may be considered a power upgrade and require a multi-kink bingo thread (depending on the power of the item being requested). There is no limit to what can be requested within reason, but within reason is the focus here.


What about requesting a Business?
In regards to businesses/locations requests, the Augur assumes it will do the work for these businesses with its robots unless you request otherwise. If you would like your character to run the business themselves, feel free to ask! A small business is one complete square. If you would like to request a personal business for your character then the requirements are as follows:

1 completed square is enough to have a building set aside, cleaned up and get basic supplies for a business if the character plans to do the rest of the work themselves to get ready for opening.

1 multi-kink bingo thread would be enough to get everything done by robot helpers (similar to using a multi-kink bingo thread to request a large house or laboratory). If it is a very large and extensive establishment, then a full bingo or two multi-kink threads may be requested. You would still need squares for continued supplies as time goes on for either option.

Businesses with robot helpers may be used as a setting for events. Due to our varying schedules, we won't be able to accommodate requests to give business owners a "head's up" about upcoming events. If you would prefer your business not be used for events, feel free to opt-out in your rewards request here, or at any time by contacting the mods.

Hi, mods. I'd like to submit a completed thread (bites/bruises) and request a beautiful large strawberry garden for Percival and Siegfried's house.

I'd like to cash in a completed thread (hurt/comfort) to open up her own office for private investigations and photography (of a voyeuristic nature). Exposure will require the necessary equipment, like a printer, photo paper, regular paper, business cards, pens and shit, to supplement the laptop and camera she arrived with. The office will occupy the first floor of the building in which she already lives. If that's all cool with you, that is!

If that's too much, change it to cashing in the aforementioned completed thread for the supplies and a second completed thread (bondage) for the opening of the business itself? Whatever's most fair.

Turning in a (fairly tame) completed thread (kissing) for some base supplies for luxury bath items. He has a lot of flowers and such but he needs carrier oils to make perfumes and soaps/shampoo/conditioner/lotion to add said perfumes to.

Or a couple books on how to make things from scratch and a bunch of oils would work too. Lorenz can do high level magic formulas the boy can handle some basic chemistry lol

Cashing in some completed threads!

Turning in chastity; virginity for a generous amount of supplies for canning, drying, and curing food: sealable bins, glass jars with lids, drying racks, rolls of cheesecloth and string, and curing salt.

Turning in bondage for an expanded wardrobe: multiples of her guild uniform (let's say 5 sets?), plus extra underwear and socks

completed thread for simple wardrobe of a few basics (nice coat, some shirts, pants, etc), including two sets of lingerie for fun. Also, a pair of simple red ear studs for future use to fill a square.

Cashing in a completed thread (age difference) for Ozpin's selected ruin at the edge of the woods to become cozy and livable: mend the holes in the roof, get the indoor plumbing working, etc. Caveat: the home is completely overgrown with white roses, which may have whatever fun effects you'd like to recommend.

A new character, a new day... for way too many requests.

For this completed thread (bites, bruises): Char has been living in the '70s since the '70s, so let's expand his wardrobe with some nice clothes.

For this completed thread (oral sex): Char is a bit too proud to ride a chocobo and so would like a horse to get around town! Along with some basic supplies for its care, such as a saddle, appropriate feed, a small space to keep it, etc.

For this complete thread (begging): Let's add a firing range to Palau! Along with a modest collection of guns and ammo.

And so noted on the stable, I'll work on that for later.
