Mod Approved by Aipom of Doom and Wolfsong

Mystery Gift Floor

To make sure that this doesn't become "MG Please" spam, you MUST answer a daily question posted by an employee to request a Mystery Gift. There will be a question posted for each day; however, it may not be on the correct day (at least, for your time zone). You can answer any or all of the 3 latest polls (as long as you haven't already answered them). All prizes that say "Stamps/CCPs" let you choose from one of the currencies to receive your money in.

Anyone is allowed to post the poll of the day (as long as no one else has posted a poll on the same day, that is). The person who gets to post the poll of the day will be entitled to an extra Mystery Gift.

You will get a random Mystery Gift from the following list:

Common Items:
Hollow Stone, Red MGcoin, Lunar Gem, 1 Stamp/CCP, Solar Gem

Uncommon Items:
Division Gem, Ocean Gem, 2 Stamps/CCPs, Spark Gem, Photosynthesis Gem, Flame Gem, Blue MGcoin, Berry

Rare Items:
Darkness Gem, Light Gem, Rainbow Gem, Circle Gem, 10 Stamps/CCPs, Green MGcoin, Gold Berry

Super Rare Items:
20 Stamps/CCPs, Mystery Box, 2 Green MGcoins, Miracle Berry

If you receive the Mystery Box, you receive 1 Stamp, 1 CCP, 1 Red MGcoin, a common/uncommon item of your choice, and a free MG. You must post after receiving the Mystery Box to get the item and to have us give you your MG.

The Games Floor

To play the games, you need an MGcoin. Each game costs one credit worth of MGcoins; Red MGcoins are worth one credit, Blue MGcoins are worth two, and Green MGcoins are worth three. You get proper change back for using Blue or Green MGcoins. MGcoins can be obtained through Mystery Gifts or playing these games. Also, you can buy a Red MGcoin for one Stamp/CCP, but ONLY if you have none.

The Grabber Game

Remember those irritating claw robots at fairgrounds? In this version you pilot one over a 6X6 grid. You give directions starting from bottom left. Pick a square by going over one to five squares and up one to five squares. The better prizes are farther away, but you have a higher chance of dropping them.

There's a chance of getting a collectible Unown Pokédoll instead of a regular prize from the Grabber Game. There are 19 kinds of dolls (some are rarer than others). You can either collect them or exchange them for shields: if you get 3 pokédolls that correspond to the first 3 letters of a pokemon type, you can exchange them for an elemental shield of that type. There's also a small chance of getting a Stat Modification Die.

Each day, you may use the Grabber Game and Scratchcards up to 10 times COMBINED. You may split the uses however you want.

Guess THIS!

An employee will think of a Pokemon, and give you a clue that should be unique to that Pokemon. You then have one try to guess the Pokemon. If you win, you get your choice of common/uncommon Mystery Gift prizes. If you guess wrongly, you won't get your Red MGcoin back like before.

You may only ask for one Guess This per day.

Scratchcard

Just like the lotto, you can come here and scratch off for a prize. Pick a card from the lists below, and scratch off three numbers (from one to ten). There will be three randomly decided winning squares, and an employee will tell you what your scratchcards revealed, and whether you won anything.

Group 1 Scratchcards
Choose from 2 Stamps, 2 CCPs, Hollow Stone, Lunar Gem, Solar Gem, Photosynthesis Gem, Flame Gem, Ocean Gem, Spark Gem, Division Gem.

Prizes:
1 winning square: Red MGcoin
2 winning squares: One of the indicated item
3 winning squares: Two of the indicated item

Group 2 Scratchcards:
Choose from 5 Stamps, 5 CCPs, Rainbow Gem, Green MGcoin, Darkness Gem AND Light Gem

Prizes:
1 winning square: Red MGcoin
2 winning squares: Blue MGcoin
3 winning squares: One of the indicated item

Each day, you may use the Grabber Game and Scratchcards up 10 times COMBINED. You may split the uses however you want.

Mystery Pokemon

In this game, you are given a list of 14 different Pokemon. Your goal is to figure out which one is the "Mystery Pokemon" that is randomly chosen from the list at the beginning of the game. To narrow the possibilities, you may ask up to four questions (one at a time) that can be answered by an employee with a "yes" or a "no". In addition to these questions, you get one attempt to guess the correct Pokemon. After this guess, regardless of how many questions you asked, you will receive your prize.

Correct answer after 2 or fewer questions: Any Mystery Gift item except for 20 stamps/CCPs.
Correct answer after 3 questions: 5 stamps/CCPs or any rare, uncommon, or common Mystery Gift item except 10 stamps/CCPs.
Correct answer after 4 questions: Any common or uncommon Mystery Gift item.

Note: if you ask whether the MP is a certain pokemon, it counts as a guess if it is, and as a question if it isn't.

Update: as of February 10th, 2011, you can request a game of Mystery Pokemon with or without Black/White pokemon.

Fishing Game

The aim of the game is to fish a prize out of a 4 by 4 grid with coordinates ranging from A-1 to D-4. You must post the desired coordinate(s), and a worker will tell you what you got (and maybe even show you the grid afterwards if he/she feels like it).

Each grid will have 1 empty space, 5 common items, 4 uncommon items, 3 rare items, 2 super rare items, and 1 specific enhancer. Stat Modification Dice are counted as super rare items in this game.

You may choose up to 3 coordinates a day for the prize of 1 MGcoin each. Whether you choose them all at once or one at a time is up to you (choosing one at a time might get you more than one specific enhancer, but it might also get you more than one empty space, which cannot happen if you choose all the coordinates at once).

EMT

You can request up to 2 EMTs each month, for the price of 3 MGCredits each. You will get a random TM each time.

EMT Game

This Game is free and everyone can take part easily in a guessing game. It will take place ONCE A WEEK. A Worker will use the EMT but not tell you what TM popped out. You'll need to guess what TM popped out of the EMT and if you do you get to keep that TM. Clues will help you decide what TM popped out of the EMT and the Worker who's doing the EMT Game will give one clue a day. Everyone gets one guess a day after the Worker has posted the update for that day. This means you could have the chance of getting more TMs from the EMT if you're good at this game.

The worker who hosts the game will use a form like this one on the first day, and fill in one line of the form each day until the move is guessed or the form is full, whatever comes first.

Gabi: 'takes the items and gives you 30 Stamps'

For my latest MP game I got this MP list from Gabi:

Excadrill, Slugma, Carvanha, Lugia, Lairon, Nidoran M, Stantler, Bisharp, Eelektross, Cranidos, Marowak, Dusknoir, Shaymin, Clefable

Question 1: Is the MP weak to Ground-type moves without its ability?

[Lady Vulpix]

Kyle: no, it isn't.

[Knight of Time]

Okay, so the MP isn't weak to Ground-type moves without its ability, that leaves:

Carvanha, Lugia, Stantler, Marowak, Dusknoir, Shaymin, Clefable

Question 2: Is the MP weak against Fighting-type moves?

[Lady Vulpix]

Yes, it is.

[Knight of Time]

Okay, so the MP is weak to Fighting-type moves, that leaves:

Carvanha, Stantler, Clefable

Question 3/Guess: Is the MP Stantler?

[Lady Vulpix]

No, it isn't.

[Knight of Time]

Hmm, well I have a 50/50 chance to get it this time, so I'm going to guess Clefable for the MP?

[Lady Vulpix]

No, sorry.

[Knight of Time]

It's Carvanha...Blue MGCoin if I'm right, please.

[Lady Vulpix]

The Blue MGcoin is yours.

[The Blue Avenger]

I'd like my last four scratchcards of the day, please. Group 2 for green coins, spaces 1, 5, 9.

[Lady Vulpix]

2 Blue MGcoins, 2 Red MGcoins.

[The Blue Avenger]

I'd like 10 scratchcards, please, spaces 1, 5, 9, for green coins (group 2).

And also a Guess This, please.

(27/4) How often do you read other people's stories here on TPM? Why? Do you usually make comments? Why/why not?
I used to peruse Fanfiction fairly frequently, but I don't really do so anymore. I dunno, time and all that. But as far as here is concerned, I do tend to read most of what's posted at the Battle Range, if only because I work there. I also find it useful to keep tabs on what's going on in Caledor. XD That said, though, I only usually make comments if I'm rating them. No specific reason for that one; that's just how it goes.

[Knight of Time]

Jeff: Berry

SCs: You get 4 Blue MGCoins and 5 Red MGCoins.

GT!: This Pokemon is the only one whose base stats total 472.

[The Blue Avenger]

I'm going to sell that berry for stamps. Also, I think that's Galvantula, and I'll take a blue coin if I'm right.

[lvl100mewtwo]

I'd like to get 10 Scratchcards for the day please, group 2, numbers 3, 6, 9, Green MG Coin please and thank you

[Knight of Time]

Jeff: 'takes the Berry and gives you 2 Stamps'

GT!: Yes, it's Galvantula. You get your Blue MGCoin.

Alex: SCs: You get 1 Green MGCoin, 3 Blue MGCoins, and 4 Red MGCoins.

[DarkestLight]

I...would like a Guess This!

::Flips a Red MGcoin to any lucky soul::

(27/4) How often do you read other people's stories here on TPM? Why? Do you usually make comments? Why/why not?

You know, its weird. I start to read a story here, then I get inspired, and then I write, and then I leave TPM to do other things, completely forgetting the persons story I was reading. If I really like a story, I still won't leave a comment. I get flustered in my typing. I need to learn how to write positive comments so they don't sound like snide comments :/

[lvl100mewtwo]

Heyyyyy, could I please get a Guess This game?

Also, 10 Scratchcards, group 2, Green MG Coin, numbers 3, 6, 9 please and Thank you!

Also, let's throw in a Poll for the day:

[29/4] Assuming that everyone here is on Facebook, do you play any of the games that are on Facebook? Have you ever played some of the games on it? Did you quit some? Why?

I used to be huge on Farmville when it first came out, got pretty high up there too, used to have competitions with my roommate about who was the better farmer... (ironically I used to work on a farm)... I quit it after a while just cause it got pretty repetitive and boring. Nowadays I just play a little RPG by the same company that makes Final Fantasy and the Madden NFL game... just to kill some time when I am utterly bored...

MG Please

[Knight of Time]

DarkestLight: 2 Stamps/CCPs

GT!: This Pokemon's Pokedex entry is a reference as to how a certain prehistoric land animal became extinct.

Alex: Light Gem, Red MGCoin

SCs: You get 3 Blue MGCoins and 4 Red MGCoins.

GT!: This Pokemon gets the most moves with a higher-than-normal chance of causing a critical hit.

[lvl100mewtwo]

I"m gonna say Absol... but Bisharp can also learn just as many moves...

Blue MG coin if I'm right?

[Knight of Time]

Alex: Sorry, it was Gallade. When I meant moves with a higher-than-normal chance of causing a critical hit, I was referring to moves such as Leaf Blade, Shadow Claw, Night Slash, etc.

[lvl100mewtwo]

Bahahaha, ah well, I guess I didn't do a deep enough research on it, daaaarn...

But oh well, new day, new scratch cards please:

Group 2, Green MG Coins, numbers 3, 6, 9... 10 of them please!

[Lady Vulpix]

Alex: 2 Blue MGcoins, 6 Red MGcoins.

[29/4] Assuming that everyone here is on Facebook, do you play any of the games that are on Facebook? Have you ever played some of the games on it? Did you quit some? Why?
Does everyone really use Facebook? Anyway, yes, I do play some of its games. These days I'm playing mostly Action Sudoku and MindJolt Games. sometimes Everything, just to see what's on the cards. I may go back to The Dot Game someday. I used to play Send Pokemon/Pokemon Adventure until it was shut down (it was never finished) and I'm still an op in its chatroom, which is now a general Pokemon chatroom. I played many mindless games, but as such they were unable to hook me for a long time. I played My Heroes Ability for a while, but the game itself wasn't fun enough and when my group got fractured I stopped playing. I also played Battle Masters, but I got tired of the absurd advantage Dark types had against everything else. I don't play any games that require you to log in periodically; I want my games to be entertaining, not demanding.

[DarkestLight]

[29/4] Assuming that everyone here is on Facebook, do you play any of the games that are on Facebook? Have you ever played some of the games on it? Did you quit some? Why?

I used to play the Heroes game that was on FB for a good long time. I remember playing it so well cause it came out when Facebook was still young and VERY EASY TO USE AND MANIPULATE :/. I'd spam levels like no ones buisness via invites XD.. loved my Super Speed addition. But then they made it lame and stopped updating it and then Heroes went poot and yeah I fell out of it.

Uhh as for my thingie KOT

GT!: This Pokemon's Pokedex entry is a reference as to how a certain prehistoric land animal became extinct.

Wha? Now yer gonna make me read....

Omastar. Wow that's pretty sad-now that I read that. ;_;

[Lady Vulpix]

DL: Solar Gem.

I'm still waiting for my Mystery Gift and I'm going to scratch 5 scratchcards: 1, 2, 5 for 2 stamps.

*Pays 5 Red MGcoins.*

[Mikachu Yukitatsu]

[29/4] Assuming that everyone here is on Facebook, do you play any of the games that are on Facebook? Have you ever played some of the games on it? Did you quit some? Why?
I have never played the games on Facebook. Not my cup of tea. Or coffee. Some friends have asked me to join Mafia Wars and Farmville, and even told me some details about them, but I have managed to avoid them. The main reason I don't play them is that Facebook eats my precious time enough already. Also they seem quite boring if you ask my opinion, I rather pick videogame consoles. I may consider Facebook games in the future though, you never know.

[Knight of Time]

DarkestLight: GT!: Even though I was talking about Mamoswine (it's based on the woolly mammoth), I'll accept your answer of Omastar. What'll your prize be, then?

Gabi: Berry

SCs: 2 Stamps, 2 Red MGCoins

Mikachu: Lunar Gem

May I have a new game of MP with B/W, please?

'hands over a Red MGCoin'

[DarkestLight]

BlueMG Coin? I see. I thought you meant that animal itself going extinct :O

[Knight of Time]

You get your coin. Yeah, I wasn't referring to how the Pokemon itself became exitinct (since Mamoswine isn't a fossil Pokemon), but the animal based on it.

[Knight of Time]

[Knight of Time]

Alex:

SCs: You get 3 Red MGCoins.

[lvl100mewtwo]

Alright, lol, one last shot at Scratch cards for the day, 5 scratch cards, group 2, numbers 3, 6, 9 Green MG Coin please

[Knight of Time]

Alex: This time, you get 2 Blue MGCoins and 2 Red MGCoins.

[classy_cat18]

My MP: Excadrill, Lucario, Roselia, Breloom, Glameow, Luxray, Bellossom
Question #2: Is there an "i" in the Pokemon's name?

(27/4) How often do you read other people's stories here on TPM? Why? Do you usually make comments? Why/why not?
Not as much as I should, especially since I'm a mod at Fanfic. Not a lot of stories over there catch my interest. There will be the occasional story that I start reading, but then get tangled up in some other business and leave it hanging for days in its own tab. I read at the Battle Range more often but the stories get kinda complicated if it involves plots that happened before I started getting into AC/CC. I make short comments, far from critiquing it. Mostly it's because I'm the one rating it for stamps.

[29/4] Assuming that everyone here is on Facebook, do you play any of the games that are on Facebook? Have you ever played some of the games on it? Did you quit some? Why?
I play Farmville daily. That's the only reason I even have a Facebook account. I used to play Cityville and Cafe World but Farmville started adding new features and I got more neighbors so I had no time for any other games. Funny considering I still get neighbor requests for Cityville but not for Farmville. Cityville just grew too quickly for me; I won't be able to catch up.

[Knight of Time]

Shonta: Darkness Gem, Solar Gem

[Lady Vulpix]

EMT: Seed Flare?

Shonta: if there's anything confusing about my stories you can ask, I know my writings aren't always clear, but I'll be glad to explain, and your questions can hell me make my future stories clearer.

[classy_cat18]

Thanks. It's mostly the detailed history from past members that confuses me. It's a lot of info to take in. I know I don't have to know all of it, but I try to so I can get ideas for my own stories.
