GACHA MACHINE

The gacha machine is now closed! Please see our recent mod announcement for details.

After the events of August's party, the Librarian had gone back and grabbed a peculiar-looking machine from the bonfire, dragging it back over towards the Village. It's not all that flashy looking a machine; rather, it's rusted, some of the lightbulbs shattered, the paint scratched away. It makes the new, yellow-white piece of paper taped carefully to the front all the more noticeable.

There are written instructions there, carefully scrawled. It being the Librarian who wrote them, there's a lot of symbols in place of words, and honestly, it's really more of a tentative grasp on literacy going on here. But with a bit of thinking, you can figure it out:

1. Insert an offering (any offering) into the coin slot
2. Answer the riddle
3. ??
4. Prize!!

There's an array of prizes. Some are useful, some less so. But you'll never know if you don't try, and it might just be worth the effort. Unfortunately, it only responds to people once a week— meaning you can only get four prizes a month! But given the prizes, four might just be overwhelming enough.

first week Misty here for them priiizes

[shadowsran]

[Unfortunate news: Misty hasn't a penny to her name.

Fortunate news: she does have a slim and exceptionally pretty rock, and faith enough in the absurdity of this place to try anything once.

C'mon, coin slot. Please.]

[Rocks are amazing and the machine adores it, thanks. The machine lights up, a sad little tune plays, and a card is spit out.]

What has hands but can't ever clap?

[There's a little pen nearby, rusted but functional.]

[shadowsran]

[It can now be begrudgingly said this place isn't the exact worst. There's no rush, and thus a leisurely minute or so is spent coming to her conclusion. Mild worry about tetanus doesn't seem to deter her.]

A clock.

[Optimistically assuming this place doesn't run on digital.]

[inthenightmods]

[Ding ding ding! Absolutely correct! Her prize rolls out, along with a slip of paper that serves as explanation. I wonder what it could be?]

2. Duct tape: Three rolls, coming in a variety of fun colors. Make a wallet or keep your pipes from leaking!

[shadowsran]

[Aaaaaaaaaaahhh!! Good! Terrific prize! Thank you machine!

And because this place makes hardly any sense and she's not willing to risk presuming something is inanimate or looking rude, she casts glances to either side before giving the machine an appreciative pat. That ought to cover her bases.]
