The Bullshit Auction

Post by Biers »

:When:
November 25th - 5PM FST

:Where:
*stage

:What:
The Golden Tether probably has auctions every week or so, so what makes this one so special? Well, for one time and one time only, you have the chance to rent or even own a slave, entirely for free. Or practically. But, it'll take some luck, as well as knowledge on the slave you want to win.

For this chance, a slave is pulled on stage, and has five minutes to talk about themselves. Everything they say is true, except for one fact. Potential bidders buy into the round by tossing 1 gold in a bag. They then call out the slave on what they believe is the bullshit, their lie. Biers, as the handler on duty, will also make a contribution to each and every round.

Depending on how many bidders correctly guess the slave's bullshit, the following will happen:
No one guesses correctly: The slave is an excellent liar, and nothing happens. All gold paid goes to The Golden Tether.
One person guesses correctly: Congratulations, the slave's rental or ownership price is paid for you by Biers. You also take all the gold in the bag.
More than one person guesses correctly: Everyone who guesses correctly makes a one-time contribution in the bag. Whoever makes the highest contribution wins the auction. All gold in the bag goes to the Golden Tether.

:OOC:
Slaves: You decide whether your character is for sale or for rent.
Slaves: Please prepare an opening post in advance, where your character introduces themselves. Include only one lie. Feel free to make it as obscure or obvious as you like, as big or as small as you can image.
Patrons: MoneyPurse is required to participate in this auction.

:Who:
Patrons
Owned slaves with owner permission
Unowned slaves with staff permission (can be NPC)

There's no need to RSVP, but if you'd like your character to be auctioned during a particular timeframe, please contact Biers.
