what exactly is a fire sale? i hear people on the forums talkin about it but i dont understand it. i checked the wiki but couldnt find anything on it

When a inmate gets banned and has a lot of valuable shit, their cell amen's get sold for favors, usually like 5.

When the firesale happens, there is a little firesale button under your name and if you click it, you it ask for 5 favors, when you click yes on the favors, it gives you a amen from the said banned users cell.

Get it? ;O

kinda. so do they only happen when someone gets banned?

Usually, or whenever Mu feels like it lol.

haha ok. and is the amenity you get random? or do you get to chose?

Lmfao, random.

its random, dont get yur hopes up, i seen one the second day i played this game but i didnt have any favs and i havent seen one since, i know they happen, but u got to be online cuz the shit goes quick, lol

you have to hope a big level person gets banned then the firsales are fun, lots of good stuff?

so this shows up on everybody online? where does the icon appear? ive never heard this phrase

It's shows for everyone, and it pops up in the same spot as the infirm, and isolation sign. I seen one but didn't know what the hell was going on until it was over... thats how fast they go. (maybe 5min)
