Rep Store

[arrozconfrijoles]

A marketplace where a user can purchase one or a even a lootbox (for our non-EU muzzle clients) of muzzle enhancements. This will encourage good behavior following the eventual rollout of rep system.

Commands

1. We need a command like /marketplace where a user can peruse available enhancements and how they work. This should only be viewable for the requesting user to avoid targeting.

2. Once they have read through the selections they'll need a separate command like /buy or /trade to make the purchase. When a user incorrectly spells a product there should be a message sent back to them that explains that item is currently unavailable and lists what is in stock. Exactly the same idea with the /muzzlestats misfire message.

3. Users will need to access an inventory of what they have, Standard /inventory command should tell the user how many muzzles they have ready or how long their cool-down is, as well as their current rep score.

Muzzle Enhancements

• Fast Reloading Magazine: muzzles refresh at 4x the speed for the next two hours
• 50 Cal Rounds: Your muzzles pack more punch! Add an additional minute to the randomly generated muzzle time.
• Crossfire Rounds: users typing at the same time as your target are also muzzled
• Shotgun Shell: Muzzle 2-3 targets per muzzle. Alternatively could select 3 random users
• Silencer Muzzle: will target the next person who speaks, meaning they would have to be really yammering for it to work. This one could have the ability to target a particular channel.
• MOAB: A particular channel is muzzled
• Nuke: Inter-channeling muzzle of the entire Slack group, Needs a dank countdown maybe starting 3 minutes out to get the group wilding.
• C4 - muzzles all users when a designated word is said for 1 minute
• Sticky Grenade: Select your target and the person that talks directly following them is hit with the muzzle.
• Guardian Angel: anti-muzzle applied to all users for a random amount of time. 1-3 hours
• Secret Service Agent: target a user that you'd take a bullet for. When they're muzzled, the muzzle passes onto you.
• Trip Mine: Designate a word or phrase and the first person to use it is immediately suppressed. Additionally user could target a specific channel such as "The Wire" within #movies.
• Moltov Cocktail: Aim and pray cause this baby will hit someone. 10% chance of hitting intended target. 90% of shots hit other users who are currently active
• Muzzleproof Vest: a 24 hour /counter. It would be good to be able to give this to individuals within #botw, so they don't have to worry about being muzzled while typing out a long paragraph. Implementation of this aspect could be tricky. We don't want to prevent the individual from being muzzled anywhere, only with messages sent to #botw. It could be used for evil with a clever #botw individual as so:
  1. User is muzzled while discussing in #gen
  2. Muzzled message is sent while in #gen
  3. Enterprising individual then goes to #botw and sends a single message causing an immediate backfire and muzzle removal

We could just not discuss this issue openly and see if anyone figures it out.

Questions When these Enhancements are used should there be some explanation fired off at some time following the muzzle?

Announcements - (clearing up what is occasionally mentioned above)

In general the automated messages should call out:

1. Who used the lootbox
2. What muzzle enhancement was used
3. Who was targeted initially
4. Who was actually hit (if necessary)

For either Nuke and to a lesser extent MOAB there should be a countdown that fires off multiple times before the messages are suppressed.

For both Muzzleproof Vest and Guardian Angel there shouldn't be a message when it is initially applied. With muzzleproof vest I see no issue arising from this because all attempted muzzles on that individual will appear as backfires or blocks. With the Guardian Angel there will need to be some custom message returned stating that the group is under protection. Both should send a post-mortem breakdown of who attempted to muzzle during the duration.

#botw To encourage both the usage of these enhancements, as well as our favorite channel the #botw should have both protection and muzzle enhancements bestowed upon them.

As stated above the user should have a Muzzleproof Vest. How they acquire one I'm not sure, but it could follow the same way we determine if the user has done their job for the day.

At the conclusion of each day there should be a poll sent asking if #botw has done their job. /botw @user would then fire off a poll that asks if that user has done their job. If greater than 5 yes votes occur and is greater than the number of no votes then they should be given a loot box for their duty.

This will eventually lead to a need for the ability of enhancements to be exchanged as rep since some users are fundamentally opposed to the usage of the muzzle. ~In cases where someone (@user1) has gifted muzzle enhancements to a different person (@user2) then there should be additional information showing the transit of the enhancement when the announcement occurs.~ -Will be ugly formatting and onerous, ignore.

Phase 1 Items to Add:

• Quick Reload - Muzzles reload 4 times faster than normal for two hours.
• Heavy Hitter - Any muzzle you create gets an additional minute added onto it.
• MOAB- Muzzles an entire channel for the usual 30 seconds to 3 minutes we've been using for muzzles.
• Nuke- Muzzles the entire group for 5 minutes.
• c4 - Muzzles all users in the channel you specify, when the word you specify is used, for 30 seconds to 3 minutes.
• Guardian Angel - everyone in the channel is prevented from being muzzled for 1 hour.
• Secret Service Agent - muzzles you instead of the person you specify.
• Trip Mine - Muzzles the next person to use the word you specify for 30 seconds to 3 minutes.
• Muzzleproof Vest- prevents you or a user you want to protect from being muzzled for 3 hours.
• Headshot - muzzles a user for 1 hour. can only be used one time per day globally. (Meaning one use per day PERIOD, not per user per day)

Questions:

• Should all of these have some kind of message?
• How should we price? I like the idea of a percentage of the total outstanding rep, calculated on the first of each month. We would need to decide on percentages per item.
• Are there any other additional limiters that should be added to some of these items?
• Do some of these items need to be changed a bit?
• How should we track item usage? Do we want to track outside of muzzle data?

• Chat Notification - MOAB, Nuke, c4 (after completion), Guardian Angel (after completion), Secret Service Agent, Headshot (10 minutes into usage)
• Pricing - TBD
• Do we want the Muzzleproof Vest and Guardian Angels to be stackable? I like the idea of Muzz Vest stacking if that randomly happens. Otherwise I don't foresee any other limiting issues. Def could change following rollout.
• Tracking - On a secondary list we can track who uses Rep Store items (not counting standard Muzzle even if it is a purchased item) and who is affected by their usage. Would like to see the secondary KDR of the Rep Store.

We need some sort of basic web interface to better explain what is available.

At worst this could be a funny two-bit looking website similar to Stardew Valley aesthetic. At best it would be interactive and the user could make multiple purchases quickly. They would also be able to send "/muzz to @user" to move their rep points around. We could also have donation drives to collect rep for large purchases of Nukes or other extreme rep store items.

[arrozconfrijoles]

Since we changed the name to the Rep Store we could reappropriate lootbox to mean summer and winter multi-pack sales. Would love to sell a few differ Firework Packs around July 4th.

This is probably on hold for awhile - even a janky UI will take some time that I don't want to spend on muzzle right now. I do like the idea of a front end but I have some competing priorities rn.
