SHAKEDOWN!


BAKE YOUR SHAKE! 

Those "pretty much worthless" shake bricks are now worth L$ to you with the ḈḁṇṇḁḇḭṦḼ™ SHAKEDOWN REBATE PROGRAM! That's right - we'll be awarding L$10 credit for every eligible shake brick you turn in during the SHAKEDOWN!

Not every shake brick is eligible for the rebate, so read carefully! There are four basic rules:

  1. The Shake Bricks have to come from a 4.19.902 or higher ovule. Bricks from recent version males that have timed out are fine.
     
  2. Older version males will produce the right shake brick if you update them with a 4.19.903b Update Transmogrifier before they time out. There's no need to run a Bridge. Just update the older male directly, and make sure it's carrying the 4.19.903b ovule.
     
  3. Old bricks really are worthless. The quick way to check is to right-click on the brick, go to "Edit" and then to "Contents." If you see a script (CSL SHAKE) inside the brick, it's not eligible for the rebate.
     
  4. The bricks must come from plants that you owned when they timed out. There is no aftermarket for old shake. Of course, you can buy old males from other growers, update them to the 4.19.903 ovule, and grow them until they time out.


To cash in your shake bricks, find the ḈḁṇṇḁḇḭṦḼ™ Shakedown Scales beside BiggBudd's counter at ḈḁṇṇḁḇḭṦḼ™ Central. Place your brick on the top of the scales, and click the "Weigh" button at the base of the scales. Messages in local chat will tell you if the brick is eligible or not.

You can only weigh one brick at a time. If it's accepted by the system, your cash-out total will increase by L$10 and the hovertext over the scales will turn yellow. You can then delete the brick. (Of course, if the brick is rejected, you can delete it, too.) Then you can weigh another brick.

When you're done weighing your bricks, click the "Cash Out" button to receive your Gift Card in that amount. The system awards only up to L$100 Gift Cards, so if you weigh ten bricks, the scales will automatically give you the L$100 Gift Card! You can accumulate as many Gift Cards as you have time and shake to turn in.

A couple of final notes. When the Shakedown Scales are in use, the hovertext will turn yellow. If you click the scales while another person is weighing bricks, the scales will award that person what they're due. (Likewise, if someone forgets to cash out and the scales are showing red text, the next user to click them will reset the scales and send that person their Gift Card.)

Also, the maximum individual Gift Card the scales will give out is L$100. We do not plan to award larger Gift Cards through the Rebate Program, so please don't ask.

We hope this is a fun (and profitable) way for you to clear out accumulated shake bricks and old males from your inventory. So SHAKE YOUR BRICKS!

IMPORTANT NEW INFORMATION!

pOT pLOTs, Auctions, and the ḈḁṇṇḁḇḭṦḼ™ Advertising & Auctions Group provide an opportunity to re-sell plants and to interact with other Growers & Breeders. The ḈḁṇṇḁḇḭṦḼ™ Team provides this service at nominal cost, because we believe a healthy aftermarket and vibrant community help our business. We do not make much money from these activities, so it is essential that they enhance our operation and do not detract from it.

There has been some confusion lately about what is and is not acceptable for sale in pOT pLOTs or Auctions at ḈḁṇṇḁḇḭṦḼ™  Central. The ḈḁṇṇḁḇḭṦḼ™ Team has spent a lot of time this week reviewing our expectations and rules to make sure they are clear and consistent.

We have made some changes in the "Auctions" page on this website. Additionally, there is a new "SELLING AT ḈḁṇṇḁḇḭṦḼ™ AUCTIONS & pOT pLOTs" page that has specific rules for pOT pLOT pricing and version updates. These are not suggestions or guidelines; these are rules.

In a nutshell, the update requirements are:

  1. Female plants and seed bricks must show Version 4 or higher in their stats and must  be updated to Version 4.19.903b or higher.
  2. "Bridge" ovules are unacceptable.
  3. Male plants must show Version 3.02 or higher in their stats and must have a 4.19.903b ovule.
  4. Version 1 or 2 plants are not acceptable.
  5. Unopened "vintage" boxes of Version 2.11c or higher seeds are allowed for sale at Auctions, but only Version 4 or highere seed packs are permitted on pOT pLOTs..
  6. Boxed plants are not acceptable.
