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.

Hello! I haven't done rewards for...a while. Ahha.

(SORRY YES, HELLO. I have edited this on 10/26 after rereading the FAQ and realizing that Safe Haven is Sim City only and that the apartments are now the thing in Nameless City. Please let me know if I still haven't gotten it right. :))

I would like to request a private safe haven using this thread: Public Square. Basically a one-room hunting-cabin-like place styled like it's from his home universe (with a substantial-sized bed :>) with a kitchen area and sitting area/table, sort of like a one-room apartment. Just to move with the Sims and be in a different location than the UC.

To Mingjue's apartment in the Nameless City, may I add a (discretely accessed via some sort of nonsense trap door or magic array) an expansion using: Anal Square . Could it be a 'random addition' (not IC requested, just OOC requested) and be appointed like a sex dungeon with some miscellaneous dungeon equipment (at your discretion, perhaps?). :) To add into this, I'd also like to toss this square: Blindfold Square, for just...jamming it full of sex equipment/toys that will definitely make Mingjue question his life choices.

Using this thread here: Wrestling Square, may I also had a larger bedroom (and/or a second floor with a balcony, idk how much this covers) to his apartment in the city so I can have room to put The Bed (from my previous reward request) and his boyfriend?

Using this thread: Possessive/Marking Square, may I ask for some kind of hunt-for-meat prey species to be reintroduced to the island so when Mingjue goes hunting he has something he's properly hunting for and can provide to other denizens? I'm drawing a blank on fun ones, but if you have something in mind from another canon in game? Otherwise I'll pick something interesting!

A false moon pendant (to give him werewolfy form control) using this thread: Incomplete thread~.

Eskel's A5 Card.
So, Eskel has a workshop that was his original transformed safe haven. But with it being a separate building from the apartment and stables, it's kind of an odd-one-out now so to speak. It consists of a forge and leatherworking/butchering area (bottom floor), alchemy workshop (second floor), and a rooftop greenhouse for alchemy-related plants. The FAQs states that the size of the apartment can be modified with Augur rewards. Would it be possible to move the workshop in parts to Eskel's apartment? I'm hoping to streamline this for all of our sake's lol.

Hello, mods! Turning in the middle row bingo for an event idea I have partially written up:

Using the maid cafe party room, PCs can be put on display with shibari and nyo/nyantaimori around and on the tables, or can be one of the partygoers who appreciate the scenery and gamble on games like seeing which of the displayed PCs comes first (with fucking each other and/or fucking machines). Using winnings from their wagers, partygoer PCs can place bids in periodic auctions on the displayed PCs through the night.

This would require permission to write some robot NPCs to handle matters like escorting participants, arranging and preparing everything, masquerading as anonymous partygoers, and hosting the games/auctions. (Maybe a roomy car for robot escort to pick PCs up or drop them off.) They won't be needed after one in-game day. Whether it's a game event or a player post, either is fine by me!

Edit: Oh also, if possible, I'd like to include a small selection of fancy prizes for PCs who get high auction prizes (slightly elaborate fantasy clothes, things like that)
