the mint
A capped run of characters. Unlock yours, and it draws a share.
Each character is an NFT — yours to keep or to sell. Get one free from the list, pay ELO to unlock its tier, and every unlocked character draws a weighted share of what the house pays out.
Free, first come — and the list re-roots every Monday. Seats mint first come while they last, and the door re-roots on a posted clock: one sitting every Monday re-pins every listed group and the reserve at the blocks the walk lands that day, and the new root posts the same day, file first. Nothing chooses the block. A group added mid-week joins at the next sitting, so a wallet that missed one list can be on the next. A free allowance is cumulative for life — a new list never resets what a wallet already took. The art reveals when the run closes at mint-out; until then every seat rides sealed under the same posted commitment. No deadline is written into the contract itself — and a character the free door never hands out is never sold, not later, not at any price. There are 7,692 characters behind the free door and far more wallets on the list than that, so being on it means you may mint — not that one is held for you. How many are left is read below.

how it works
get a character
Free, through a list of holders pinned at blocks that already happened — first-come, and the list is longer than the run. It arrives benched — tier 0, weight 0, drawing nothing.
unlock a tier
Pay ELO once, from the ladder below. That buys weight. Upgrading later pays only the difference, never the rung again.
draw a share
When the bar fills, anyone pulls the lever and every unlocked character takes its weight ÷ all weight of the pot. reading the state… The bar's own page ▸
what each tier costs
Not the price of getting one — a character is free at the door and mints benched. The ladder is what a holder may pay later, by choice, to give it weight.

The unlock burn is read off the contract.
Burned to 0x…dEaD, so ELO's totalSupply() does
not fall — the tokens become unspendable.
Selling a character resets it to benched. Every transfer clears the tier — including moving one between your own wallets. What you paid to unlock does not travel with the sale, and the buyer starts at tier 0.
get one
Paste any address — no wallet, no signature, no connection. The cohorts are public files and this reads one. You need a wallet only at the moment you mint.
One list, three per wallet. The free door takes a single list: wallets holding a flagged collection at pinned past blocks, plus every wallet holding ELO when its curve graduated (a posted minimum keeps dust out) — deduped, so qualifying several ways still carries the same allowance of three characters. A whale and a minnow hold the identical entry, and an entry is a place in a race, not a reservation: when the last of the 7,692 goes, everybody still on the list gets nothing.
which collections are in
The door is one list, measured over the collections below at a block that has already happened — so nothing bought afterwards gets in, and nothing sold afterwards drops out. Each row links to the token on the explorer, because a ticker is not an identifier on this chain: it carries eight tokens called Motion.

the other doors
The contract carries three more doors — play, build, and a paid door that takes no list at all. In this run the welded caps give them nothing: the whole float goes through the snapshot, and a character the free door never hands out is never minted or sold by anyone. The table is the read, not the promise — and a free list is a merkle root over a block that has already happened, or it does not exist: pinned before it was announced, so nothing anyone did afterwards changed who is on it. A character is an ordinary token whichever door it came through — yours to sell to anybody, and the royalty asked on a resale is posted further down.

| door | who gets in | state | reserved | minted | left |

The contract welds no closing date onto the free doors — the 72-hour clock above is the house’s posted rule, closed by hand — and a character the free doors never hand out is never released into the paid float or sold later.
what a character buys
Sorted by who has to agree — the only sort that tells you whether a row is a promise or a hope. Each row says what it needs and whether that exists yet.

what it can never buy
what happens to it once you have one
What a character does once it is yours — kept, moved, sold, or left on the bench. Each answer names the contract member that welds it, so it is a fact you can go and check rather than a reassurance from us.

the face
Drawn on chain, by a renderer with no owner and no setter: the art is that contract's own bytecode — not a URL, not a pin, not a file on our box. No key can change a pixel after it deploys. Reading the renderer…
the posted rarity
Every axis sums to exactly 10,000 basis points and the contract refuses to
agree otherwise — layerSumsAreExact() is a read anyone can
make. A table that sums over makes its own tail unreachable; one that sums
under inflates the rarest entry. Both publish a rarity that is false,
welded, forever.

the fine print
The whole coat hangs on one page: diligence — the contracts, the house's declared wallets and seat, the signing key, and every standing caution, most of it read live. What stays below is only what belongs beside this page's own controls.
the sealed deck
Faces are sealed until the run closes. sha256(salt) goes on
chain at deploy, before a single character is minted; the salt is
published when the mint shuts. Then anyone recomputes every face from
keccak256(salt ++ tokenId) and checks it against what was
served.
