Supposed to start tomorrow but I got nothing to do today.

Summer holiday week has begun! From 06/27/23 to 7/5/23 everyone who wins rock paper scissors 3 times receives 1 item plus an 8% chance to get one of the following:

Sunbeams brain warming wear (Spy)
Thunderbolt Sniper rifle (FT)
Showstopper Disco Fever (Spy)
-----------------------------------------
Current event Scattergun (MW)
Shell Shocker rocket launcher (FT)
Pink Elephant stickybomb launcher (FT)
------------------------------------------
Flash Fryer flamethrower (MW)
Strange Lightning rod shotgun (FT)
Strange Lightning rod shotgun (FT)

A few rare cosmetics have also been put into the item pool.
Brusiers bandana, dead of night, etc

How the chance is calculated is by using wheeldecide . com, 50 total options are put onto 1 wheel with 46 being no and 4 yes options spread out over the wheel. 4 out of 50 is 8%.
Every time someone wins they get 1 wheel spin. If it lands on no, nothing happens, if it land on yes then a second wheel is spun to decide what they'll get out of the items above.

Currently thinking about using the secret saxtons and the spirit of smissmas as a tracker for rock paper scissors. Secret saxtons level up the spirit of smissmas, and since saxtons are so cheap they could be used to track how many people have won.

Impossible challenge:
I've decided to cut impossible challenge altogether. My reasoning for this is that the cost would be way to high long term. The purpose of it was the provide a kinda lottery type challenge where you have one "jackpot" winner each week. Cutting the amount would be counter productive to that.
I also believe that holiday weeks are a much better alternative to that, still having jackpotish items but also allowing more than 1 person at a time to get it. Its more like combining the items from 2 months of the impossible challenge into 1 week.

Speaking of holiday weeks:
If your steam account is under a certain age you will be excluded from receiving anything from them. This is to prevent people from making new accounts just to have extra chances at getting lets say an unusual. This shouldn't affect anyone but if your account happens to be made relatively close to a holiday week you cant get anything from it.

If for whatever reason I cant see how old your account is, you will also be excluded.

Summer is almost upon us, and possibly the new update so I'm going to giveaway some special stuff. It will start next Wednesday (6/28/23).

Some of the stuff included:
Sunbeams brain warming wear (Spy)
Showstopper disco fever (Spy)
Field Tested Thunderbolt Sniper Rifle
Minimal Wear Current Event Scattergun
and other powerhouse collection skins.

From 4/26/2023 to 5/3/2023, everyone who wins RPS will get 2 items! Also for a limited time a searing plasma head hedge is being given away randomly alongside RPS.

Total wins required now 3 instead of 3 in a row
Class weekends - Show up as a specific class and get an extra hat

RPS Spray for future use to help explain what I'm doing.

Impossible challenge - Still a work in progress but current changes include:
Limit of 2 per person changed to 1 per person per month, max of 2 people per month.
Amount increased from 5 keys to 10.

Holidays - 4 holiday weeks, Saint Patricks Day(8%), Independence Day/Summer(8%), Halloween(6%) and Christmas(10%). They will have holiday themed items, usually including multiple unusuals, and anyone who wins regular RPS during a holiday week will have a percentage chance to get one.

Impossible will be suspended in the month prior to one of these holidays, and the keys will be used to cover the costs.
