ARG scavenger hunt
An ARG scavenger hunt was held for attendees to solve puzzles and find missing pieces of a Cog memo.[2] The memo was originally too difficult to decrypt and was later reworked for a future ARG on April 29, 2019, that led to Operation: Crash Cashbot Headquarters.[3]
Merchandise
At the convention, a large poster depicting the Toon Resistance facing a Sellbot Field Office, three trading cards (Wedding Cake, an old boot, and the Chief Executive Officer), and a mini poster depicting a Toon walking away from a Short Change and The Big Cheese were available for attendees to receive. On December 18, 2018, Member Mailers were introduced with an end date of March 31, 2019, to allow players a chance to receive the trading cards and mini poster.
