Announcements post #224: June is Art, Auctions, and Tesseracts!
From: Starmaker Eukelade
Subject: June is Art, Auctions, and Tesseracts!
Starmourners! It's June, one of my very favorite months. For some reason, I always find my creativity seems to expand at this time of year. Maybe it's the warm weather, maybe it's the longer days, maybe it's a side effect of the Covid vaccine I got a couple weeks ago. Whatever the case, we want to celebrate creativity this month by introducing a new tradeskill - ART!
Yes, ART (see HELP 8.5.10) is our newest tradeskill, and if you feel like doodling, painting a portrait, designing a fancy-ass laser light show, or even just writing in a book that you bound yourself, it might be the tradeskill for you.
We know some of you might be full up on tradeskills right now, but we've got you covered there. For the next week, we are going to be auctioning off a Crafter's Omnipass! May the highest bidder win!
As for our monthly sale, what else would do for June but TESSERACTS? I hope I see some rainbow parties this month! Most of you are probably familiar with Tesseracts by now. If you're not, let me invite you to read HELP TESSERACTS. As in previous months, we are awarding tesseracts based on credit purchases. For the first 100 credits you purchase this month you'll get a tesseract every 10 credits, as well as the usual prize of a tesseract every 25 credits - meaning that the first 100 credits you purchase this month will give you 14 tesseaects! After that, you'll get a tesseract every 25 credits.
Good luck, Starmourners. I'll say goodbye (for now) here, but keep reading for lists of loot!
PRIZE LIST!
Along with the quantum space expanders, minipets, mildly interesting things, and so on, here's a list of exciting potential prizes in the tesseracts this month:
ITEMS
An indescribable cabinet
Are you looking for the full set of Battlemaster action figures? How about all those glitchy holoposters from music festivals past? Maybe you just like pretty rocks? If you do, do it with this cabinet, which will keep your most prized junk from decaying while it lives in this exciting piece of furniture.
A page-a-day calendar
Just the facts! Load up on lore with the return of this much-requested Starmourn calendar, which will give you a unique and exciting tidbit about our favorite universe for all 360 days in it.
A stamp of authenticity
This high-tech device will make a designed item non-decay, leave a mark of authenticity upon that item, and then permanently archive that design (see HELP STAMP for more)
