~*~ 88x31 cLuB ~*~

~*~ How to Play ~*~

WeLcOmE, surfer friend!! ~*~ 88x31 cLuB ~*~ is all about collecting, gifting and trading those tiny cute kawaii 88×31 buttons from the classic web. Open packs, keep your faves, share the extras, and trade with friends to finish your collection!

Want the exact chances? See Fair Play.

» Joining «

Open the free pack on the front page and sign your first button. That's it, you're in! You'll get a Save Code: it's your key back in, so write it down somewhere safe. You can also add a Passkey (we highly recommend this!)

» Packs «

You get TWO daily packs every day. Pick 1 button to keep, and you can gift one of the others to a friend!

You can also earn ~*~ cLuB ~*~ packs by helping people on the Request Board, finishing sets, your starter quests, and more. Look out for Series packs and Limited Series packs!

» Come Back Tomorrow! «

Visit every day for a visit streak: packs on day 2, 3 and 5 (very generous!) and a Series pack on day 7. Keep it going and every week brings more! Miss a day and it starts over.

Got too many doubles? Trade in any 5 commons or uncommons for a ~*~cLuB~*~ pack!

» Buttons «

Every button is numbered, like a trading card: your Lava Lamp might be #12, and nobody else has #12. Buttons come in common, uncommon, rare (hard to find!), prototype (only 4 of each exist: unfinished drafts of the ultras) and ultra (one of a kind!). Some come in a shiny foil, and a lucky few do strange things on screen.

The cLuB's own buttons come in series (Alpha, Beta...), and each series only prints so many copies before it's gone for good.

Buttons you haven't come across yet are a mystery (?) until you see one: in a pack, or on someone's page. Go explore!

» Trading & Gifting «

We have Trading, we have Gifting (stamp one in a friend's guestbook!) On the Request Board you can wish for a button you're missing, or fulfill someone else's wish and get a reward!

» More Fun Stuff «

• Fusion: fuse 3 of the same button into 1 shinier one.
• Sets: collect a whole set to win a special reward button.
• Found a Button? Add old 88x31s from around the web on the Wall of Buttons and get copy #1 with your name on it.
• Your Page: show off your collection, pick a color theme, and collect guestbook messages.

» FAQ «

I lost my save code! Log in with your passkey if you made one, then make a new code. Otherwise there's no way back in, so keep it safe!

Can I buy buttons? Nope! Buttons are just for fun, and can never be bought or sold for real money.

Is it fair? Yep! Every chance is on Fair Play, and every button's history is in the Ledger, where nobody can change it.

~*~ Fair Play ~*~

Here are the chances behind every pack, straight from the game itself. If anything ever changes, this page changes with it!

» Rarity Chances «

The chance for each card in a pack.

» Packs «

See every pack ever made »

» Foils «

The chance a new button comes out shiny.

» Print Runs «

Live! Once a series runs out, it's gone for good.

» The Ledger «

Everything that happens to every button (every pack, trade and gift) gets written down in the Ledger. Each entry is locked to the one before it, so nobody can sneak in and change history... not even the webmaster!! ;)

» Bitcoin Receipts «

kIndaa like a Bitcoin notary!

• Every hour, we push Ledger's latest fingerprint onto a public receipt.
• That receipt gets stamped by OpenTimestamps, which bundles it with stamps from all over the 'net and locks the bundle into the Bitcoin blockchain within a few hours.
• Once it's in there, nobody can change it. Not us, not GitHub, not anybody! So if the Ledger's past ever stopped matching an old receipt, everyone would know.

And nope, no crypto here!! The cLuB doesn't buy, hold or spend a single coin. Bitcoin is just our free notary. :)

Wanna check for yourself? Grab any receipt and its .ots proof from the Receipts Archive, drop them on opentimestamps.org, then compare its fingerprint with the one below.

The fine print: receipts prove the Ledger hasn't changed since they were stamped. They can't prove every event was written down honestly in the first place, and that goes for every blockchain out there.
