Shiai currency
Due to the new torishop update thingy, I was thinking perhaps it would be a wise decision to turn shiai tokens into a currency like tc rather than being an item. This would allow people to buy shiai items via torishop, without having to use the forum and asking a gm for a prize. It's kind of a smallish thing, but, I think it may be worth it.

I know how easy it is to generate them, but, it seems to be more convenient this way.

Shiai tokens are already currency lol.

Currency is stored as a "number", Shiai are items instead.

No way to implement an automated exchange for shiai items now until that's fixed.
If it's changed, that'd be probably the first thing to add.
I like them as a item currency rather than a wire currency because they look cool and some ppl just collect em'

Besides I doubt there'd be a time where not even 1 GM is on XD

There are ways to implement a converter between Items and TC; which of the easiest would be to set up a account running a trading script which is checked like once a week... (Send the account some tokens and receive the TC equivalent per-say the current trade-rate.)
Now doing recoloring for people not in the clan as-well, PM for more info!

I'd keep it to shiai tokens buy shiai items only, so its possible to get expensive items from ingame

Shiai should, and hopefully will remain an item that you can redeem for prizes.

Working with currency is way easier and it's not the idea of an additional currency that wasn't liked by hampa, but the idea of shiai at all :/
The way it exist now is pretty weird as it makes GMs and TSAs so additional stuff that can and should be done automatically by the system.
So is there any chance it'll get scripted in any time in the future?

You can't send ST to accounts unless your a GM.
