Okay, I've seen this in a couple of other guilds, so I wanted to try it out. Basically, you "insert" a coin and someone else tells you what you get. Since this is the Readers' and Writers' Guild, we'll make everything book related! You can do stuff from pretty much anything, including graphic novels, but no movies. Just don't do anything inappropriate... And one more thing: don't do the same book/author/series as the person above you. If you can help it, don't do a book/author/series that's on the same page, but I'm not going to rule that out completely. Try not to repeat items either... If you follow the rules, it'll be hilarious and you'll learn about new books along the way. This'll be the basic format.
The person above will say:
Quote:
*inserts coin*

Then you will say:
Quote:
You get Harry Potter's wand! (Harry Potter)

The stuff in the parantheses is the title of the book or the series. That way if people don't know to what you are referring, they can figure it out. I used a really obvious example, but it can be something completely random and out of the way. It doesn't even have to be tangible. Once you recieve something, make sure to list it in your following posts so that you can keep track of what you get.

Let it begin! *inserts coin*

You get Brisingr! (Inheritance Trilogy)

*inserts coin*

Question: Do we HAVE to insert a coin? I play this on a guild where we can insert whatever we want, and then the object you get is usually related to what you inserted. (It's an Avatar: The Last Airbender guild too, so things get pretty funny.)
