Need a penny? Take a penny. Have a penny? Share a penny!

[prorenataa]

Good afternoon fellow Savorites!

First of all I want to apologize for being a little late rolling this out, the holidays kicked my ass this year.

An idea came up in discussion back at the start of December, and after some follow up conversation with the mods, the opportunity to circle back on it and flesh it out has cropped up. Basically with the IC help of the captains, and medical being over caffeinated work-a-holics, in the last few days of Week 4 of the month, a sort of Barter Bazaar is going to be set up.

What will happen is that all new characters will be given an unused PacDisc [ Code for PacDisc Inventory system. ] courtesy of the captains. This PacDisc will have an item already in it, a starting point if you will and characters can keep their item or use it as a starting point for bartering.

IF YOU WERE ACCEPTED IN THE DECEMBER APP ROUND!!! Please comment HERE and we will give you your starting item. If your character wouldn't be interested in gifts from the captains, it's perfectly acceptable not to pick this up.

This exchange is completely opt-in.

In the IC log, established characters will have received a handwaved message encouraging them to sort through their shit inventory and see if there are any items they'd be okay passing along to new crew, or heck even trading among themselves! Likewise, new characters will receive a similar handwaved message, encouraging them to take advantage of the opportunity. The log will be for everybody to come together and start getting their swap on. Who knows, there may be food and other bribes goodies to make it a right proper mingle.

Think of it as a way to meet your fellow stranded brethren ... and get stuff! Besides actual tangible things (if your character would rather hang on to all their stuff) consider offering information, help or even basic support in getting through this barren wasteland.

The actual IC log will be posted on Saturday December 31st to allow people to plot here and also on the CR meme that goes up tomorrow. Also to clarify since it was a question that was asked! The items will ICly drop on Saturday the day of the bazaar. So figure the captains make their handwaved announcement and then pass out the pacdiscs.

If you have any questions, please direct them HERE otherwise feel free to use this post to start making some plots, toss out a list of items you might have up to trade / items you'd be looking for and get in there to make connections!

Any object of which he has multiple, he'll likely trade or even give away for free in exchange for social capital.

Rinzler

FOR TRADE: Backpack: plain, black. Phone: Inugami standard flip-phone. Prone to fizzling and bleeding if you try to edit settings it doesn't want changed. Pencil: from Inugami; will never become too short to use. Box of 20 assorted pieces; currency usable on any planet that rates "more valuable than gold and diamonds". Rocket boots A bag of these Spare Tronverse batons (2, need a programmer to copy over vehicle/utility templates) Water-powered hoverboard A canteen that always refills with water (currently on loan with Adrien?) A compass that leads you to the person you love most AND a compass that leads you to the person you hate most (visually identical, unlabeled) One hover-speeder Eco gear Rescue equipment Stabby survival gear (rank reward for December). FOR LOAN: Twelve Transporters*. *If you were part of the pre-crash transporter crew and want to keep your transporter in your own disc, Rinzler will pass it over without issue.

NOTE 1: while Rinzler does get exchanges and owing favors and the like, he considers human-style economies to be a stupid way to resource-hoard. If your character can persuade him something is more useful with them, he might just give it away.

NOTE 2: when leaving the ship, he didn't bother PAC-discing any of the stuff he didn't think held any value. So, this very large pile of relatively shiny stuff is all VERY FREE to have been retroactively grabbed by anyone there. If your character would've taken something, comment and I'll cross it off the list!

[ryuuzaki]

L probably snatched the tarot deck (look, he thinks it's nonsense but it's super weird!) and the mineral bottle!

[ryuuzaki]

I'm not going to post the whole Pacdisk code (becaaaaaause I haven't filled it out yet, oops awkward) but!

L has most of the liquors listed here (esp the scorpion vodka and the diamond champagne) and would be willing to trade that sort of thing for Something Good.

You can't have his remaining Jaffa Cakes.

(ETA: however, one thing he'd be very interested in trading for is the "box that always has candy in it" from rank rewards this spring.)
