Good In-Tent-ions

[Good In-Tent-ions - 8212562]
The room is paneled in rough-hewn wooden planks, punctuated by long dark wood shelves stocked with multicolored folded tents. Below the shelves is a row of evenly spaced bright silver hooks that boast a series of lanterns and torches above a red cedar trunk. A low plank riser is covered with assorted containers. A wooden pamphlet rack stands beside the entrance, offering a selection of tent upgrades.
Obvious exits: out

On the low plank riser you see: a wide wooden tray, a simple wooden shelf, a low wooden table, a darkly varnished maple footlocker, a braided rattan basket, and a varnished glass-fronted cabinet.

Item Type Info Details Price
a wide wooden tray 5 lbs
Pocketed: A fairly small amount (on)
Analyze
Analyze:

This is a Pup Tent Storage Container.  It can be PLACED inside an erected Pup Tent to provide storage.  Item placed inside the container, as well as the tray itself, will be stored with the folded pup tent and set out the next time the tent is erected.  It can be freely altered to anything that makes sense to hold up to 200 pounds, but must remain singular (no baskets, etc.) to make sure it works properly in the tents.

The owner can PROD the tray to toggle whether others can get and drop items into the tray while it is placed in a tent.

The wide wooden tray cannot be lightened.  It could be deepened to hold additional weight and items by certificate, but not by merchant.  The tray can hold a fairly small amount with enough space for 5 items.

************************************************************
Here you will find portable shelters for your adventuring needs.

To set up and pitch your tent, you should STAND MY TENT.
To fold up your tent, you should FOLD (appropriate descriptor) TENT.

The tents on the shelf can hold two people: you and one guest.  You must escort your one guest into the tent.  Uninvited guests cannot follow you in.  The capacity of auction-level tents is 4 people.  The golden certificate will add two guest slots.  Guestbooks may be purchased to increase the guest capacity by one guest, for a maximum of 100.

TENTS ARE NOT CRITTER-PROOF.  You may not STAND your tent when enemies are present.  Should a critter enter the area when your tent is standing, it will collapse it, knocking you, your guest, and your stuff out.

Large tents won via raffle, auction, or unlocked via pristine golden certificate are exempt from critter rules and can be pitched with critters present and will not collapse when critters are present.
TENTS WILL COLLAPSE AFTER 25 MINUTES OF THE OWNER NOT BEING INSIDE.  In an effort to avoid tent cities and tents being left all over the lands, the tents will collapse if you are not back inside after 25 minutes.  This only works with YOU, the owner.  Guests will be tossed out as the tent collapses.

COLLAPSED TENTS ARE SAFE FROM THE JANITOR FOR 5 MINUTES ONLY.  Normally, the janitor will leave your tent alone, even while you're gone.  However once the tent collapses, you have 5 minutes to fold it back up before it becomes fair game for the janitor to pick up.  Again, this is an effort to keep tent abandonment to a minimum.  After five minutes, anyone, not just the tent's owner, will be able to fold up the collapsed and abandoned tent.

WE ARE NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR TENTS LOST TO THE JANITOR.  Every effort has been made to give you ample opportunity to FOLD a collapsed tent.

LEAVE STUFF ON THE FLOOR OF YOUR TENT AT YOUR OWN RISK.  Normally, if you are present, the inside of your tent is safe from the janitor.  Items PLACEd in your tent are safe (unless you lose the entire tent).  However, if a critter knocks your tent over, all of your items will roll outside with you.  If you abandon your tent and it collapses, the inside of the tent becomes fair game for the janitor.  You WILL lose your items.

NEVER EXIT YOUR TENT WITH ITEMS LEFT ON THE FLOOR!

TENTS MAY NOT BE PITCHED INSIDE, IN TOWN, OR OTHER UNUSUAL PLACES.  The gate-shaped certificate will allow you to pitch your tent inside town boundaries.

OTHER PEOPLE MAY NEVER ENTER YOUR TENT WITHOUT BEING JOINED TO YOU OR INVITED INSIDE, BUT DO NOT TREAT THE INSIDE OF YOUR TENT LIKE A "PRIVATE ROOM".  It is not.  Vulgarity rules apply.
