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.

As a reward for Zechs' Hurt/Comfort square - https://lusi.dreamwidth.org/59863.html?thread=10628823#cmt10628823


Zechs would like to request a photo album from his world, that would have numerous photos taken of his friend's kid.

Baby pics, toddler pics, recent pics of her with Une and Dorothy, etc. Cute things that maybe the father would appreciate having since he never knew she existed before.

I have returned, at long last...

For this completed thread (oral sex): as a present for Julieta's birthday McGillis would like to request a meteor shower on the night of December 20th.

For this completed thread (masturbation): McGillis would like to upgrade his kitchen so he can impress his senpai. And make food for his lazy fiancé.

For this completed thread (exhibitionism): I have noted your discussion with Oran about spells that can remove curses and conditions and accordingly, I am submitting a square so McGillis can learn something similar to this. With any limitations or stipulations that you see fit, it's all gravy.

Why hello, I'm here to cash in a square or five.

Teasing (Completed) for a masterbath upgrade for Even and Oran. If it's possible to extend that upgrade to the guest room on the same floor of their tall, narrow townhouse, that would be swell.

Competition (Completed) for a D&D-style level-up for Oran from Warlock Lv. 5 to Lv. 6! I'm going to give him that Erku-specialized Remove Curse spell and rejig my permissions/opt-in and out page to make it more clear on what abilities he has that could need discussion and consent.

Alcohol/Drug Use (Complete) for a "pelt of the beast" wondrous item: specifically, I'm looking for a feather boa that grants the user the ability to use Animal Friendship with a limit to feathered critters only, as well as Speak with Animals once per day.

Hurt/Comfort (Complete) for a stack of extra healing potions to keep up with demand.

Photography/Video (Complete) for as much high quality paper, ink, chalk, and other wizardly needs as possible (it chrimmas, after all, and what better way to submit a square than to gift a love liked one??)

Thank you! :)

hildahilda: pin-up model? or axe murderer? (Default)

[personal profile] hildahilda 2020-12-14 05:23 pm (UTC)(link)
Hi mods, a question to go with this request! Hilda's former roommate is no longer in the game, and I was wondering if it might be possible to hang onto the new house he recently acquired. (She'd like to take care of his wyvern as well, but since that technically falls under another character's pet, I totally understand if it isn't possible!)

I have a partially filled A5 card here, with none of the four (4) squares cashed in thus far. If it's better to wait and come back with a completed bingo or multi-kink thread, I can certainly do that!

Thanks so much for your time!

Completed Thread - Vehicles.
Requesting an upgrade to Keith and Allura's cottage in the form of a small sunroom + a few planters of juniberry flowers. If only one of these is ok, then I'll take the juniberries, thanks!

[personal profile] mcvillain 2020-12-16 10:16 pm (UTC)(link)
[OMEGA INTENSIFIES] ...sorry for the double post, I had to sort something out.

For this completed thread (authority figures): McGillis would like to learn something similar to this. With any limitations that you see fit, same as before.

I am also cashing in a multi-kink thread (pervertibles, licking, exhibitionism, body worship) for a mystery reward for McGillis! Go crazy.

Xenophilia for a set of very ostentatious, matching gold jewellery for Oran, preferably including awesome horn-danglies, earrings, and lots of finger rings. Even better if it has some sort of protective magic on it!

Flexibility, Contortionism for a good, big stash of fortified wine, whiskey, gin, and whatever other spirits the Augur might deign appropriate (and maybe a little rack or even a wine cellar under their house?).

Bites, bruises for a weather-proofed chocobo stable in Even and Oran's backyard for Sugarplum! Maybe even a small fruit tree or a grape trellis so the sweet bird has some snacks on tap come spring?

Starting off with a modest completed Cuddling thread.

In exchange, Caleb would like a couple things to help out with the cold weather: one set of his warmer winter clothes from home, and some basic repairs to the Neinhaus, where he, Fjord, and Mollymauk have been living. Patching up broken windows, giving them hot running water, and making the caved-in third floor not so caved in would be a great start!
biscuity: ❚ season one. (Default)

Can I use an incomplete thread (fighting/wrestling) to get two books, one collection of ancient Greek mythologies and one coffee-table-esque photo book about New York City?

I've got a square and another bingo! A5 card here

  • This complete thread for Wax - A supply of crossbow bolts with silver arrowheads, please. (His crossbow is a small, one-handed one.)
  • Bingo! Top row: Wax, Clothing, Rough Sex, Multiple Partners, and Jewellery - I used my last bingo to bring back more animals, so I'm using this one to bring back more plants: lemon trees, sugar maples, green tea shrubs, blueberries, and strawberries. (If the sugar maples will be growing openly on the island, I'd love for one to show up next to Eskel's house, please.)


Thank you for your time!

Also sliding in this completed thread (phone sex) for jewelry making tools + a reasonable amouht of supplies!

I don’t know if one square is enough for this, or if a bingo is required but I thought I would see anyway.

Submitting this square of hands, fingers for the following:

Implementing the calendar system proposed here to all communicators. He wrote it out as such with the intention of maybe tweaking it later when a potential year has actually been observed.

Here we go again!

For rimming (cw: monsters/bestiality) how about some horticulture books for the library?

For breathplay (cw: monsters, again) lets get a few normal clothes for this guy, a shiny new mask, and a pilot suit... that might not come out how he expects.

For altered state of consciousness (cw: gore, body horror, dubcon) he needs places to sit. Let's get this set for a corner of the orangery, and a cushy foam beanbag for Siegfried's cockpit.

Lastly, for an incomplete thread (cw: MORE MONSTERS) how about restocking his kitchen a little for the holidays?

Thanks!

A request and a question!

Question first: Would a single completed square be enough to get Aphrodite her own home in the shape of a temple. For scale (Thanks Assassins Creed.) It's fine if it's simple at first and she builds it up with future squares, or if it's a whole bingo sort of request. I'm just trying to get an idea of scope since it seems somewhere between safe haven and mansion. Ty!

Also turning in Emotion manipulation/altered mood (complete) for just a big box of nice clothing, since the snow made it obvious she might actually need to wear clothes once in awhile. :(

a completed thread (multiple orgasms w/ aphrodite) in return for an upgrade to her temple and (at mod discretion) some clothing for aphrodite ... and mollymauk. practical boots would be nice for ditey but otherwise fjord would just throw his request in the air and see what he got bc he is a Dude and not very fashionable.

a completed thread (oral sex/fixation w/ mollymauk) in exchange for some higher level spell slots, but mainly his ability to heal. also, if possible, some of caleb's missing spell components or watercolour painting supplies.

(Possessive/leaving marks) for as much basic, untainted energon as is warranted with a complete square. Oran figures a good supply for our one cybertronian island dweller is a fair welcome, especially if others begin to wash ashore. Maybe a couple of week's worth?
