Meat is Money by Orange Rose hopes of peace

October 11th, 2007 2:15 AM

INSTRUCTIONS: Use meat as a form of currency.

Completion of this task is a successful transaction.

Ok, so I'm not sure if anyone else plays this game in addition to SF0, so I'm gonna be the first to post a completion involving.....Kingdom of Loathing. If you haven't heard of it, KoL is a text/graphic turn based online RPG, which, in essence, mocks everything known to man. In game, you have a character, which you can level up, fight monsters, complete quests, etc.
Anyways, one basic element of the game is that game currency is meat. So, here I will document me buying a couple of different items with meat.




Item #1 Fat Stacks of Cash
Character Sheet
Buy Item
I has a fat stack of cash!



Item #2 Chewing Gum on a String
Seaside Town
Market Square
Chewing Gum on a String
Ur Chewing Gum



And a bonus, buying an item with a worthless trinket!
The Big Mountains
The Hermitage
Superlucky!



So, that's how to navigate the meat-currency economy of Kingdom of Loathing. All in all, an awesome game.

Here, I am searching the Mall, where you can buy items from other players. The item I will buy: Fat Stacks of Cash. A totally useless item in-game.

Wow, I can't believe I didn't think of that. I don't play KoL myself, but I have enough people talk about it to me that I should have.

...yeah. that's where this task came from. I'm majnuun on KoL.

And I'm not going to berate you, but I was kinda hoping someone would do it IRL (as the kids say).
