Scraper Dollars

#1 Post by sam » Mon Feb 20, 2006 6:01 pm

So I've noticed that each time you post you get Scraper Dollars, I've bought a 'Rusty Hammer' from 'The Hardware Store', but just wondering what I can do with it?

PS: There's one Rusty Hammer left in the store so get in quick if you want it

Cheers.

I was trying to see how much I could sell my hammer for, but there was no confirmation and I just accidently sold it for $14 (bought it for $25).

:cry:

So there are now 2 in the store...

LOL... i was wondering how long before someone said anything :)

okay, this is just a test run of a system.. whereby hopefully in the future, each scraper dollar buys you more "abilities" on this forum.

For example (and these haven't been at all tested on this forum yet so i'm not sure if it can be done):
* you can change your own usertitle (e.g. Algernon instead of it saying High Rise Poster you could change your usertitle to whatever you like... it could say Algernon the Destroyer if you wanted)
* if you had enough points you could change someone else's title, from say Howie the High Rise Poster... to Howie eats Little Children.
* you can buy immunity from title changes.
* you can donate dollars.
* you can add features such as underlining or bolding of your usertitle.
* you can steal dollars from other players (this is based on chance, if you fail in your steal attempt you lose your scraper dollars).
* sticky and unsticky a thread of your choosing.

But right now, we've got none of these options in the e-shop because i'm not sure how we're gonna modify the board to handle these changes.. so for now, all we have is a rusty old hammer. LOL I've seen this running on aussiearcade.com.au and it's good old fun between members.

There is a freely available RPG mod, but i haven't looked too far into that yet.

I retract the above offer. One suggestion if at all possible, can we buy naming rights to Adelaide buildings or places?

Heh, can you actually use any of the items for any purpose? ;)

Is there anything actually available at the moment under shops?
