the soup kitchen

how it works

everything the kitchen does to you, in short sections. if you just want to play, !getstarted in chat is the fast version.

the basics

getting soup

!soup gives you a bowl. !soup @someone hands them one. you both earn xp.

order a bowl with channel points to pull something new. 5 a night, then the kitchen cuts you off.

duplicates turn into broth. nothing in here goes to waste.

xp

10 xp for your first serve of the night. 5 for each new person you serve, up to 2. 5 each time someone serves you, up to 2. 60 a night and you're done.

every serve tells you how far you are from lord. all of it lands on whatever you're serving.

first serve of the night
10 xp
each new person you serve
5 xp, up to 2 people
each time someone serves you
5 xp, up to 2 times
a night, total
60 xp

levels

each soup levels on its own, ten levels. level 10 is lord.

200 xp

lords

200 xp on one soup and you're its lord. lords serve better: get served by one and you get bonus xp. lord a soup and its effect doubles.

every lord you hold makes the next one about 6% cheaper, down to a floor of 60 xp. the first is the hard one.

lording a common is worth more than lording a rare. more people own it, so more people want it from you by name.

losing xp

a spill, or jeff getting to the bowl first, costs you that serve's xp. that's the whole risk. it's also why every effect with the word spill in it is worth having.

what you're serving

!swap <soup> changes what you're serving. only that soup earns xp, and only its effect is on.

your collection is your options. what you're serving is your build.

effects raise your ceiling, not your rate. lording a soup doubles its effect. the full list is on the effects page.

broth

where broth comes from

pull a soup you already own and the kitchen hands you broth instead. rarer dupe, more broth.

every serve that counts is +1 broth on top. some effects spill it, some pocket it from the person you serve.

duplicate common
5 broth
duplicate uncommon
15 broth
duplicate rare
50 broth
duplicate legendary
200 broth
duplicate mythic
500 broth
any serve that counts
+1 broth

crafting

!craft <soup> spends broth on a soup you don't have. rare can't be crafted until someone in chat has actually pulled one.

legendary and mythic can't be crafted at all. you pull one or you don't. that's what makes pulling one mean something.

discovery

the first person in chat to pull a soup discovers it. the kitchen announces it, it goes in discord, and the counter goes up one of 67.

a discovery is permanent. it's yours in september and it's yours in three years.

free pulls

some serves come with a free pull for the person you served. !freepull uses it.

when someone gifts subs, the kitchen opens a !giftsoup window for everyone: better odds, free pulls that don't count against your five, and the gifter's name on every bowl.

where broth goes

crafting, mostly. and !feedjeff, which costs 25 broth and is the only thing that calms him down.

jeff

jeff's mood

jeff has a mood, 0 to 100, and it's the same jeff for everyone. it drops on its own over time. the hungrier he is, the more soup he eats out of serves.

!feedjeff costs 25 broth. how much it helps depends on how hungry he was. a fed jeff occasionally blesses a serve instead of eating it. !jeff tells you where he's at.

you can't get rid of jeff. you can only manage him. nothing he eats is gone for good.

the kitchen

the roll

every serve rolls once. usually nothing happens. sometimes:

golden ladle
0.5%. you're instantly the lord of what you're serving
hot pot
5%. this serve pays triple
burnt batch
3%. this serve pays nothing
overflow
3%. this serve ignores your cap
double shift
2%. another soup you own gains too
jeff's blessing
once a night. someone in chat gets +25 on their soup

events

sometimes the kitchen does something on its own. no warning.

spilled pot
first 10 to type MOP get xp, cap or no cap
jeff's ult
jeff swallows someone. it takes 5 of you typing SPIT to get them back. they come out holding a random soup
outbreak
anyone who types catches whatever's going around
