Minigames and quests

Poker and Match-3 for spectators and the ready room, XP and levels, and the weekly quests.

XP and levels#

You earn XP for playing on the servers (and commander XP for commanding). XP gives you a level, unlocks hats and is shown with !xp, together with your token counts. Helping to seed a nearly empty server also earns seeding tokens (see skipping the queue).

Poker#

!poker opens a Texas Hold'em table for spectators and the ready room. Your weekly bank starts from your XP (playing poker never changes your XP). !pokerhelp explains the rules, timers and weekly scoring, and !pokertop shows your bank, ranked winnings and the top ten.

Match-3#

!m3 opens a Match-3 puzzle game.

Both mini-games share window settings: !mangasize 30-120 (size %), !mangaopacity 30-100 (opacity %), !mangavolume 0-100 (sound volume %).

Spectator drawing#

Spectators can draw on the screen for other spectators. Be nice; admins can remove drawing rights.

Weekly quests#

While in the ready room, the left side of your screen shows this week's quests. Each completed quest pays poker credits, and completing all of them pays a bonus. Quests are designed to show you the server's features, for example:

  • ping Onos or Exosuits,
  • use radio commands,
  • volunteer as tribute (or cancel one),
  • use quick bind,
  • draw in spectator mode,
  • add a player to your enemy group,
  • spectate a commander for a minute,
  • use emotes.

Quests reset every Monday 00:00 UTC.
