Night six had a goal of 877,000. The room did 1,636,887, the biggest night yet, and broke the sixth seal at 11:11 AM Eastern (15:11 UTC). All six seals are gone. Still not a single scar on the cloth.

Tonight there is nothing left to break. Tonight is the fire.

Facilities Log: Night 7

The seals are ash. The chains still hang on, out of habit. The chair stands on top of the box like it owns the place.

The Tenants have stopped pretending to look away.

Somebody lit a match in the dark. Nobody admits to it.

Six Nights In Numbers

• Night 1: 490,503
• Night 2: 873,295
• Night 3: 849,566
• Night 4: 978,206
• Night 5: 1,301,076
• Night 6: 1,636,887, the biggest night yet

Six nights, 6,129,533 touches. Every goal met. Every seal broken on time. Not one scar.

Night 7: Light The Fuse

The goal tonight is 965,000, set by the game's own rule from how the room has played. Nobody hand picks it.

When the room hits it, the fuse is lit, and you will see it happen:

• The chains fall. Every chain and strap drops off the cloth.
• The chair burns away. Its back burns down to the carved HEXLOCK sign, which tips over and falls through the floor.
• Only the cloth-covered box is left. Everyone keeps playing with it, tapping and throwing it around the room until midnight.

Anyone who opens a chair after that sees the covered box. On OpenSea, every box's picture switches to the covered box too.

Two New Things Tonight

Kindling: tips count double tonight.

• A tip that normally adds 1,000 taps adds 2,000 tonight.
• Your leaderboard points for it stay normal.
• So there are two counts tonight. The big count includes the extra taps from Kindling. Overdrive, the free blast refills, counts the normal tip amount, without that extra bonus.

The exact rule: during game day 7, tips contribute twice their normal jar amount. The leaderboard counts them as before. Overdrive counts only their normal contribution, excluding the Kindling bonus. Kindling never brings the fire earlier: the cloth cannot burn before game day 7 ends.

Fire Witness: one extra Aura roll per box.

• Every box can earn one extra Aura roll tonight. It counts per box, so three boxes can earn three.
• Any one of these earns it: one Stray Cucks blast into the box, one tip to the box, or 100 hand taps on the box inside one clock hour (on the hour, not any 60 minutes).
• It counts until the standings freeze, 5 minutes before the fire.

The Fire

At 12:00 AM Eastern on Tuesday (04:00 UTC, October 20) the cloth burns.

• 5 minutes before, the standings freeze: every box's touches, tips, Devotion and Fire Witness are locked in before anyone can know the randomness.
• At the fire, the public drand randomness decides which art is inside which box. Nobody can know it before then. Not even us.
• The cloth burns away, and every HexLock is sealed and ready to reveal.

If the room missed the goal, the cloth would still burn, six hours late and scarred. Let us not.

Then It Is Your Choice

The reveal is optional.

• Only the box's owner can reveal it: one signature, no gas.
• Never while it is listed for sale. Cancel the listing first.
• Revealing is permanent. Everyone can see what is inside once it is revealed.
• No rush. No deadline. Reveal it tonight, next month, or never. A sealed box stays sealed.

When you reveal, the ceremony plays on your screen: the seals give way, the light breaks out, and your box appears with its name, its familiar, its rarity and its Aura from the week.

Eleven Of 500

Eleven HexLocks are one of a kind: STRAY, WIZARD, ARSON, THE SHROUD, THE WALL, FRINGE, CASHBOX, PIGGY, and three CCFF00 boxes: SQUARE, CIRCLE and CUBE.

Which boxes hold them? Nobody knows. The fire decides.

The Armory, Same As Night 6

Open your chair and tap Boosts. Every chair gets one free weapon every game day. A weapon only boosts hand taps, and it counts for your chair AND for the jar.

• Claw hammer: 2x for 1 hour. Every chair.
• Lead pipe: 1.5x for 2 hours. Every chair.
• Cast-iron skillet: two swings of 2x for 1 hour each. For chairs whose owner holds 1 or more Stray Cucks.
• Fire poker: 2.5x for 2 hours. For chairs whose owner holds 3 or more Stray Cucks.

What Is Next

Hit the goal. Watch the chains fall. Then midnight, and the fire.

Wake your chair. A spent Stray Cucks blast comes back 12 hours after it was used, so yours are probably ready.
