Spindizzy Winter Olympics 2026 Sales
From Spindizzy Wiki
Moriar shouts "Olympic Sales! Come to 'luge N10 W2; Stage' to become a villain to sinners at 6:00pm Server Time! (This is an open RP, all are welcome. Taking place in about a quarter hour!, please direct questions to Moriar.)" (Public-shout)
You sit on a street luge (it resembles a long skateboard) and zip directly there!
Enixi> Patashu has left.
Smol Coffee Shop [N10, W2](#14632RLJ)
The path weaves along, and there's a rusty coffee can directly adjacent. There's a small cardboard sign, weathered from the elements, carefully arranged atop the can that reads "Beverages of Dubious Providence: Coffee". This is above the slot cut out of the can, with a small shelf installed along the bottom edge. If you peer inside, you'll see a tiny collection of coffee making equipment and 1cm wide glass mugs.
Some short distance away from the path beyond the coffee can is what looks to be the intact remains of a stepdisc, flicking softly with some latent power. Further along is a small garden of coffee plants, neatly arranged in rows. Close attention may give notice to the tiny powered earthmoving equipment parked on the far side of the garden, sized as though to be toys.
To the other side of the path is a collection of broken furniture that looks to have been scavanged from the Patashu Industries dumpster, to include a pile of the beans from inside of bean bag chairs next to a pile of bean bag chairs. The tables are currently cable spools laid on their sides with cloths tossed across, chairs including several scorched ejection seats.
There is a small bell next to the coffee can with a sign, that reads "[Ring] bell for service."
The path continues off [N]orth, [E]ast, [W]est, and [S]outh. There are no obstructions to what lies [U]p above.
Obvious Exits:
[E]ast, [N]orth, [S]outh, [U]p, [W]est, and Stage
You step up to the stage that isn't really there.
Roleplay Stage(#3968RA)
The room is devoid of substance and nature, being a meta-location. The DM plans to use spoofs to establish the setting.

( The arena is arranged with bench seating around a central stage, upon which are seven barrels that each audibly contain the sounds of ongoing activity. Each barrel has been labeled with painted on block lettering: Pride, Greed, Dancing, Envy, Lust, Gluttony, and Sloth. A greenish rounded t-rex plush that could be recognized as a Substitute plush from Pokemon is meandering about on the stage, making sure the various lights are set up correctly and the applicable tarps have been laid down. A banner hangs above the stage, reading, 'Olympic Sales'. [Context spoof, will repeat as folks arrive. If you wish to participate, please have a pre-written performace of up to three poses composed. The pocket plush sinner kobolds can be presumed to act however you would expect a pocket plush sinner kobold of the applicable vice to act, with 'Lust' in this case meaning clingy and wanting to hug in order to keep them PG.] )

( When it is time to begin, the Substitute plush meanders up to the microphone at the front of the stage, "Welcome to the third of the three Olympic events hosted by the local space pirates Twisted Rivets. We'll need some volunteer judges, and I'll need to know who's participating in this Olympic Sales event. We'll be re-using the leftover kobolds from the smiting and marriage event.", gesturing towards the barrels. The current roster is visible using the 'Info' command. )
[OOC] Moriar created medals.
Ranarp raises a wing, "Ranarp, for team Dragon."
Mako hands-up, "I can judge, I'm not sure I have the brain for sales."
Mako says, "As much as I'd love to stretch my business legs timeshares are not my strong point and I didn't have a prewrite"
( Cookie squints to Mako, "What's a pre-write?" )
You rumble, "Mako's speaking metatextually right now. :P"
Mako says, "Sorry, I think that misering might have jogged something loose. :x"
( Cookie shrugs, "Eh, strange places make for great ports." )
You rumble, "Anyway, I'd enter but I'm not evil, I'd NEVER try to sell a timeshare to..."
Enixi> You step up to the stage that isn't really there.
Enixi steps up to the stage that isn't really there.
Enixi has arrived.
Enixi appears out of a portal, embedding Patashu's head in the ground, looking pleased. ^w^
Enixi chirps, "Did someone say *evil*? I can do that, kupo~"
( The Substitute takes notes, "What team, and name?" )
Enixi chirps, "Enixi, Independent, kupo~"
Ping has teleported in.
Ping has arrived.
Ping bounces in.
[OOC] Ping waves.
[OOC] Moriar waves wings!
( As this Substitute starts taking down names, a blind anthro pug begins to push a vendor cart towards the stage while calling out, "Counterfeit Chocolate Medals! Who wants to buy a Medal?" )
( The Substitute turns to address the crowd, "So, this sport consists of selecting some of the pocket plush sinner kobolds from the barrels, and selling timeshares to as many of them as possible. We've got plenty more left over from the smiting event, and felt it'd be rude to just space `em. Take whichever you want and however many you think you can trick into buying. Judging will be based on two criteria: How many sinners buy a timeshare and the elegance of your sales tactics." )
[OOC] Enixi says, "prewriting"
( The Substitute motions for Ranarp, "I suppose we'll start with a gryphon!" )
Ranarp hops up onto the stage, glancing around anxiously for a moment before bounding over to hop onto the barrel of Dancing. She waves a paw down into the barrel, causing nothing to happen. She hops over onto the Pride and Envy barrels to repeat this attempt. All of the kobolds remain in the barrels.
Ranarp tumble-dives from the barrel top to the center of the stage, "I am confident that the kobolds have embarked on a shall be unwise with their money.", glancing back to the barrels where nothing apparent is happening, "...it's subtle."
( From over among the barrels their is a rustling before a dozen kobolds climb up out of the barrels to emerge. They scamper out to center stage to announce, "Having considered our place in the universe with regards to deities and our historical lack of piety, we have decided to embrace the passions of our love and become a married gaggle. Accordingly, we have need of a location upon which to be in love, but only for the portions of the year during which our passions may direct. Thus, we each would like to purchase a single timeshare." Ranarp appears bewildered and simply shrugs her wings towards the judges. )
BunnyHugger got distracted for a moment and missed the start! She turns to make sure she's paying attention now as it's a bad look for the Olympic official to be staring into space.
( The Substitute cocks their head to the side, "...huh.", then waves a paw, "I suppose all's well that sells well.", then looking to Enixi, "Are you still plotting your scheme?" )
( The pug offers a chocolate medal to BunnyHugger. )
Vahno says, "Heya Enixi."
BunnyHugger politely declines the medal, shaking her head and saying, "I worry about the appearance of impropriety."
Chitter rolls his eyes.
Enixi chirps, "Jusssst about ready."
( The pug shrugs, "If it helps any, the chocolate's stolen." )
Enixi begins!
BunnyHugger mutters, "I'll just see what Robert Nozick thinks about that."
Enixi twirls his staff as he struts forward. A legion of clockwork moogles, one marching on his left, one marching on his right, flank him and soon surround the assembled plush sinbolds of every variety. He taps his staff on the floor as he stands at the front, and a spotlight shines on him. "Ladies and gentleplush, kupo~ Witness perfection~!" He gestures to his left and right, and the clockwork moogles salute! They're kind of penning the audience in, though. This is a bit of an obligatory speech~
( The Substitute calmly begins to dance a little jig, making a specific effort to waggle their tail about. This plush knows how to stall for time. )
[OOC] Patashu says, "Hehe, a substitute WOULD say that :3"
Enixi - "As the foremost Moogle Technomancer in all of the planes, kupo, my manufacturing base spans far and wide~ And my creations, utterly obedient~" They march in place and salute again! 'And you, fellow stuffed friends, can be a key part of my expanding ambitions~" He taps his staff on the ground again and a projector *click-clicks*, putting up a poor quality illuminated image on the wall. Depicting prefab, uniformly built clockwork towns with clockwork moogles marching through them.
Enixi ahems. "For *entirely* ulterior motives, my expanding territory needs... actual, non-clockwork critters populating them in order to be recognized and to function properly. NOT because they don't know what to do when they leave them to own devices." Click-click! Another slide! YCH-like characters being fed, catered, cared for, given the highest level of relaxation in prefab environments by clockwork moogle. "You too can discretely bolster my on-paper population numbers, boss clockwork moogles and happen to be in the area in case something goes wrong! For a limited amount of time during the year, obviously. I can't care for ALL of you all the time, I'll go broke!" Timeshares are passed out to the audience, murmurs are had, and soon timeshare signups are given! Success?
[OOC] Moriar nods, "Please excuse the interruption; I didn't catch the 'begins', and thought you were still writing."
[OOC] Patashu figured you were writing it at the same time, no worries
( Cookie watches with interest, making a particular note of the quantities. )
( Cookie leans close to Enixi, "Am I correct to believe your scheme complete?" )
Enixi nods!
Mako takes notes...
( The Substitute nods, "The Judges shall now confer!", turning to chat with Mako. )

[OOC] Patashu says, "cya"
Niny'ah has disconnected.
[OOC] Moriar shrugs wings, "We've got Ranarp concluding the saga of not being tangible, and.."
Mako looks up. "Are there any other entries?"
Vahno leans on Enixi.
Enixi flails arms, falls over! >w<;
( Cookie turns around to address the crowd, "I have decided to exclude myself from judging, since I'm on the same pirate crew as Ranarp." )
Vahno falls onto Enixi!
( Cookie calls over to Ranarp, "May we have a gryphon on stage?" )
Ranarp hops up onto the stage.
( The Substitute drops a Silver medal through Ranarp, "Congratulations!" )
Moriar drops Silver Medal for Sales (2026).
Ranarp bows in place a bit, before dashing off stage.
Chitter laughs a bit.
( Cookie motions for Enixi, "May I have Enixi on stage?" )
Enixi mwehehes, and hops up! >:3
Ranarp gives Chitter the side-eye, ears flattening.
Mako... now I wonder what Enixi's Minion health plan is like.
( Cookie hands the gold medal to Enixi, "Congratulations on your victory! Your elegance and quantity were the most pleasing to the judge." )
Moriar hands Gold Medal for Sales (2026) to Enixi.
Vahno says, "...Timeshares..."
Chitter cuts off abruptly, nervous.
Ranarp continues to appear self conscious.
Enixi> I don't know which one you mean!
Enixi> Dropped.
Enixi drops Gold Medal for Sales (2026).
Taken.
A very shiny gold medal hanging on a wide ribbon banded with a carnivalesque sequence of colors. On the front is the logo of the Olympics, a bumble bee with a ball between its front feet superimposed over a honeycomb cell. The text reads "SpinDizzy Winter Olympics 2026: The Joy of Play". The reverse side has an image of an ominous clock greedily devouring money. The inscription on this side reads "Sales".
You now own Gold Medal for Sales (2026) and any attached actions, its home is set to you (if it's a thing), and the Chown_OK flag has been removed. Enjoy your new Gold Medal for Sales (2026)!
Home set.
You hand Gold Medal for Sales (2026) to Enixi.
Enixi beams proudly! "Thank you, kupo~" He dons the medal and bows for the audience. ^w^
( Some of the sinners in the Greed bucket pay close attention to Enixi's medal. )
Enixi chirps, "Oh, you want this, hmm~? Well, you should have entered! Kehehe!"
Mako owo
Ranarp slips away when she thinks no-one is looking.
Ranarp has left.
( The Substitute bows, "Thank you all for attending another event hosted by Twisted Rivets. If it's in space, we can get it for you." )
BunnyHugger looks at the roster with evident confusion. "Wasn't there a third entrant?"
( Cookie looks to BunnyHugger, "Eh? Who?" )
Featherwing has disconnected.
( The Substitute looks at the roster, "Oh, Jane Doe. Well, you see, the software we use to display the roster starts counting at zero, right? But the program we use to populate the roster starts counting at one...", before trailing off and talking about floating point precision. )
Enixi chirps, "Do you need me to hunt down Jane Doe and bring her here to participate, kupo~?"
( Cookie looks to Enixi, "Ah, nah. Jane doesn't exist; she's just an entry to make the software work out." )
Enixi ah! He nods, totally getting it.
( Cookie shrugs again, "Any other questions?" )
BunnyHugger says, "I... I understand, thank you."
BunnyHugger scratches something out on her notepad.
Enixi chirps, "Yeah! Who's substitute are you anyway, kupo?"
Enixi leeeeans over.
( The Substitute seems taken aback, "Oh, excuse me. I thought we were in polite company!", putting their paws on their hips and glaring up to Enixi. )
Enixi mwehehe~ :3c
( Cookie toggles to pointedly ignoring Enixi, "...any legitimate questions?" )
Enixi huff. =w=
Enixi chirps, "Oh oh! What ARE you doing with the plushbolds now, kupo?"
Somewhere on the muck, Myril has connected.
( The pug asides to Enixi, "That's Cookie's substitute. Duh." )
Enixi aaaah.
( The Substitute looks up to Enixi, "Dunno, probly space `em somewhere it'll be funny." )
Enixi hmm, where it'd be funny...
BunnyHugger says, "What??"
( Cookie looks to BunnyHugger, "Huh?" )
Somewhere on the muck, Voksa has disconnected.
BunnyHugger says, "There are rules about the welfare of non-athlete participating lifeforms. I would have to de-sanction your event if you spaced your assistants."
( The Substitute nods, "Ah. Do those rules extend beyond the duration of the Olympics?" )
Somewhere on the muck, Voksa has connected.
Vahno says, "...Yes."
( The pug volunteers, "I suppose it'd be more fun to release them on the next big ship we raid. Make it somewhat more whimsical for the other crew to tug into port with a bunch of adorable kobolds scamperin' about." )
Vahno says, "Yeah, that sounds fun."
Enixi cheers!
( The Substitute nods to the pug then looks to BunnyHugger, "Is that an acceptable plan?" )
BunnyHugger says, "That seems more in keeping with their desire to settle somewhere, yes. I mean, perhaps they'll find a good place that way."
BunnyHugger fidgets with her Sternlooker.
( Cookie nods, "Excellent. I believe the event is concluded and we'll remain sanctioned as long as we plan to offload the sinners to somewhere that is both hilarious and has an atmosphere." )
Vahno picks up Enixi. "SO!"
BunnyHugger says, "Very good, The Olympics Commission appreciates your compliance."
Enixi gulp!
BunnyHugger says, "Thank you for hosting an event! Thanks to the judges and competitors too."
[OOC] Moriar headbobs, "Thank you all for attending a quirky event, and for participating. Rest well when you do!"
BunnyHugger says, "Also if I may remind everyone to check out our literary supplement (rpread 24) and vote on your favorite short fiction piece!"
[OOC] Patashu says, "Rest well!"
[OOC] Mako says, "Rest well, Moriar."
BunnyHugger passes out copies of the literary magazine.
BunnyHugger says proudly, "The photo is by me!"
Vahno says, "Where to now?"
[OOC] Moriar raises a paw, "I don't plan to vote since I'm one of the entries, but I also don't know how to vote."
BunnyHugger says, "Oh, I apologize for forgetting to point out the voting mechanism."
BunnyHugger says, "You can enter 'vote' and it is currently the only thing in the voting booth."
BunnyHugger says, "Then 'vote 36'"
BunnyHugger says, "OR rather, just '36' will enter your vote once you've gotten into 'vote'"
[OOC] Moriar nods a bit, "You may wish to edit that into the rpread 24."
