User fermentedwritersblock gained inconcievable amounts of money by posting. He was posting georg, currently sitting at the top of the user leaderboard with a whopping 12,923 posts. And he had maximum interest. He ended up reaching the integer limit, and once that had happened, he started giving away money and items for free. He eventually made a whole thread for it. This rendered money worthless, as anyone could just ask fermentedwritersblock to buy items for them.

Meanwhile, user Antquinox who was also a top poster and became known for doing shenanigans, expressed interest in some new shenanigan. He made a completely non-suspicous poll asking for people to vote for one person in the moderating team. Admin won!

Antquinox sent admin hundreds of interest downs, causing her interest rate to go below zero.

In this event it was discovered that you could actually get More D$ with negative interest, as it didnt have a limit like regular interest and would overflow, giving you more than 100% of your money. Some of the rich users ended up getting themselves negative interest after this, causing money to be even more meaningless.

With the economy in shambles, admin announced she had a plan to fix everything. We had no idea what her plan was, so we started making guesses among ourselves.

One day admin announced the forum would be down for a few hours for maintanence. When it came back online, it became apparent something was wrong. Seam, the forum seapkeeper, was replaced by Spamton. The interest up and down items were gone. There was a new shop called [BIG SHOTS ONLY]. A news post made by a mysterious user named ??? appeared and revealed...

WE GOT GAMBLING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Obviously everyone started spending all their money on these mystery balls.

They had the aforementioned badges, which you could equip to have on your profile, the special titles, and the JUNK items which would get deleted when you used them. The JUNK items were pretty much worthless but people kept them either for completions sake, because it was related to a character they liked, or simply because they wanted to. The JUNK would also have special text for when you used them.

Those werent the only things you could get from the Mystery Balls, however. You could also get a Hammer of Justice, an item that was previously sold out after being used on fermentedwritersblock, which lead to the creation of the DUMBest events in history thread. This item allowed you to BAN ANY USER YOU WANT FOR 24 HOURS. It was a powerful weapon.

There was a new addition as well: the Spear of Justice, which let you PIN any thread you wanted for 76 hours. This meant the thread you picked would be at the top of the forums.

I got a lot of JUNK items and, with the trading threads not being created yet, gave them away for free. I was especially eager to get rid of a Spamton bodypillow item, giving it away to myCRTromance.

I got 3 Spear of Justice-es from my gamblings, and not knowing what to do with them, I made a thread asking others what to do. After making the thread I got the idea of pinning my I miss Jevil thread, and did just that. I miss Jevil ended up consistently getting pinned, becoming known as The pinned topic. As far as I'm aware, the Spear of Justice was only ever used on one other topic, but being pinned became I miss Jevil's legacy.

myCRTromance also made a thread asking what to do with an item they got. What they had was a Hammer of Justice. There were many suggestions, but the final decision was to use it on Beheeyemite who myCRTromance had a long running "rivalry" with. What myCRTromance didnt know was that the Hammer of Justice not only Actually Really Bans Users For 24 Hours, but it also does this.

myCRTromance was HORRIFIED. They didnt understand the consequences of their actions AND their crimes were broadcasted across the entire forum. They wanted to take back what they had done, but there was no way to go back.

Or so we thought.

Out of the blue, the user ??? appeared to make an offer. They were willing to un-ban Beheeyemite, for a price.

They wanted the spamton body pillow.

Everyone was shocked at this development. myCRTromance, wanting to repent of their sin, complied and gave their items to ??? and thus Beheeyemite was un-banned

Beheeyemite was offline during all of this and found out what had happened hours later. They got a cool un-BANNED title out of it though

Now, one of the more important parts of Gambling. As I mentioned previously, the interest up and down items were gone from the seap. In the BIG SHOTS category of the shop, there was a certain item named !!! POWER of [NEO] !!! It would give you a random amount of money, but more importantly had a peculiar description.

Being sold out would reset everyones interest back to 2%, with no way to change it.

It went out of stock in just a few hours, thanks to users kris and paradise-paradise, and thus everyone lost their interest rates.

But none of it was enough to fix the economy.

Not everyone was like me and spent all their money gambling in an instant. Especially the rich users kept their distance. Eventually it was found out that the prices of the Mystery Balls changed depending on how much money one had. The less money a user had, the less the Mystery Balls costed. This lead to users gambling for other users, making them spend less money and keep their billions of D$.

Something needed to be done about that.

And something Was done, when a second news post was made. Gambling was gone, replaced with

THE MONEY HOLE

The Money Hole has a whole saga attached to it that would make this already long story even longer, but if you want you can look through the history thread to learn about its deal or ask me to explain that one in a separate thing. What's important to the current subject is that one of the rewards for the Money Hole goals was more gambling. If we wanted to gamble again, we had to reach it...

And we did!

Admin said it would take a while for all the rewards to be rolled out and asked us to be patient so we waited. There were no news about gambling until the 3rd news post by ??? announcing the Money Hole rewards. Everything was completed except for more gambling. But we were assured that it would be arriving soon, with a small tease of what's to come

They never stated what the sprites were for in the post, but it was obvious. They were badges! Including unofficial ones made by loveletterworm! Everyone, including me, got very excited about this.

But it wasnt time yet. Admin stated in the changelog thread that it would take a while and to give it a week or so. So now we're waiting... for Gambling 2
