ALL CREDIT GOES TO @LUNA-LOVEGOOD-LOL FOR THE SLIDES <333 click on the screen to progress through the slides! Welcome, all! Be sure to read all the way through both the instructions + notes and credits before you format a request. Welcome to the Ikea Cafeteria, where our mercenaries are serving up a lovely meal of words and mangoes! You can find more information on the mercenaries (such as their identities and demands) inside this forum. ↱ [...] ↴ The mercenaries are a select group of volunteers who expressed interest in writing for other cabins as well as their own this session. So if you and your cabin ever need a helping hand, you will be able to ask for a mercenary right here and they'll be able to write towards your active war! Mercenaries, however, won't work for you for free - you'll have to pay the price... ↱ [...] ↴ At the very start of cabin wars, each cabin automatically receives 3 cafeteria mangoes. At the same time, the Cafeteria opens and the identities of our mercenaries are now revealed! The rules are simple: the mercenaries will write for you, as long as you pay them in mangoes. The default trading system is 1000 words for a mango, unless the spiel of each mercenary says otherwise - but you are more than welcome to negotiate ohoho. Leaders and co-leaders can use mangoes automatically. Campers can only use one mango at a time, unless given approval to use more by any other member of their cabin. ↱ [...] ↴ This session, we're introducing something special: mercenaries with teams! Each merc is on team Skog or Blahaj. These mercs are aiming to collect the most mangoes for their team, which will get a special surprise in the second cabin wars ;D ↱ [...] ↴ Some additional rules: ༄ All mango trades must happen in the cafeteria comments, so we can keep track. ༄ Mangoes cannot be temporarily loaned or borrowed, or halved or quartered. ༄ Mangoes can only be spent on mercenaries, who can then donate their mangoes wherever they like. ༄ Mercenaries can choose whether or not to complete bonus challenges. ༄ Mercenaries are obliged to hold up their end of the bargain once they’ve been paid; if they fail to complete what they’ve been paid to do before the war ends, the deal is off and the cabin keeps the mango. ༄ You cannot use a mercenary who comes from your own cabin - otherwise they'd just be writing towards their own war, which they really should be doing anyway. ༄ Mercenaries cannot have their services requested after cabin war day is over in UTC (even if there are still active wars). ༄ Mangoes have no point value, or any bearing on the ranking. ༄ All mango requests must follow the prescribed formatting. ༄ Your cabin can only use one merc at a time! you can interact with mercenaries and talk deals outside of this project; however, mango trades MUST be confirmed in this project's comments, for host sanity. If you have any further questions, please head to a host's profile! The current swc hosts are , , , , and .
↱ [...] ↴ To format a request: cabin | war number* | request | confirmation you're a leader OR you’re a camper abiding to the one-mango rule (unless given permission to use more by another cabin member). example: gothic | war 5 | write 2k towards our war please! i'm willing to pay 2 mangoes | I confirm I am a leader/I am a camper given approval by a member of tragedy’s leading team :) Any mercs interested will reply to your request with a message of acceptance. if you have talked with a mercenary and come to a deal you're both happy with outside of this project, you should confirm the trade in the comments. this comment doesn't need to have a set format, but you should confirm the cabin, the mercenary, and the mangoes paid! ↱ [...] ↴ Wars have been numbered for ease of identification! you should use the war numbers if you are requesting a mercenary: war 1 | 4000 words, 9 hours war 2 | 3500 words, 8 hours war 3 | 2 people, 500 words each, 8 hours war 4 | 2000 words, 4 hours war 5 | 1000 words, 3 hours war 6 | 3 people, 700 word collaborative short story, 24 hours war 7 | 4500 words, 7 hours ↱ [...] ↴ See the main cabin for the full cabin wars link this session! ༄ past SWC hosts for writing the majority of the description, edited by @--tranquility ༄ graphics made in canva by @luna-lovegood-lol ↱ [...] ↴
