Points, Roles & the Shop
Earning points
Section titled “Earning points”Points are earned only by playing — never bought.
- Survive each day — more points the more you chatted (risk = reward; lurkers earn the floor)
- Patient Zero — used tomorrow’s banned word more than anyone today? You’re named in the decree, and every death to your word pays you a bounty… while you live
- Zombie kill bounty — 40 points per assist during the Apocalypse
- Round-end bonuses — survivors, longest streak, loudest while alive
- Donations — the round’s top 10 scorers hold the Loudest Ten role

Spending points
Section titled “Spending points”In #the-exchange: /shop cosmetics (21 name-colors, 300 pts each),
lottery entries when Management opens one, or your own resurrection via
/redeem buyback.
The glamour ladder
Section titled “The glamour ladder”Lifetime points unlock permanent titles:
| Title | Lifetime points |
|---|---|
| Whisperling | 1,000 |
| Murmurer | 5,000 |
| Hushed Hand | 20,000 |

Round champions earn permanent trophy roles (e.g. 🏆 2026-06 Last Voice). Some roles only exist as lottery prizes. Roles the machine grants cannot be bought — the machine does not negotiate.
Money (entirely optional)
Section titled “Money (entirely optional)”The wall is absolute: money can never buy points, revives, lottery entries, or your way out of the graveyard.
What dollars can buy — cosmetic only, 18+:
| Item | Price |
|---|---|
| Name color (any of the 21 shades) | $1 |
| Billboard ad — 3 days | $2 |
| Billboard ad — 7 days | $5 |
| Billboard ad — 30 days (pinned) | $15 |
All purchases run through Stripe — the server never touches your card. Refunds walk the perk right back out.
The game is free. The dying is free. The dying is always free.
