Based off a post I made on Reddit a while back. Hope y'all enjoy.

Edit: Since people are mentioning it - the stat buffs do not matter. I was being silly when I threw those in. But yes, the scale is 0-100.

Coin

Look, the glasses are nice and all, but they don't give you a 50% change to win the lottery and randomly realise a way to prove/disprove the Riemann hypothesis every two weeks

I wonder how this works with elections. In my country, the votes are counted within 12 hours. When I'm voting on a party, I am attempting to make said party the largest one. Does the coin just give me a 50% chance to unilaterally decide my government every election cycle?

Edit: oh shit, it's not 50% chance, but 100% after it came into effect once. The first time it lands on heads, try to guess the next flip's outcome by guessing it would be heads. Since the coin is in effect, this guess is correct, even though the next coin will only be flipped in two weeks

In other words, the coin just gives you reality warping for halve a day every two weeks

It says "everything the user attempts" which technically you can guess what the next coin result will be correctly but your guess will stop being lucky after 12 hours and your attempt won't be lucky.

Coin sounds the best tbh. It's an infinite money with extra benefits.

I'm assuming there's a downside, like you have to commit to whatever thing you were planning before the flip. So like I say I'm going to slap a cop, and then I flip the coin, hoping for the best.

Maybe the effect only lasts until you look which side of the coin came up - so you won't know how it will go until you've tried it. :D

No, this one is the most like a "monkey's paw" on this list. Here's why:

everything the user attempts will work out in their favor

For instance, the worst possible candidate in your district/country is absolutely going to lower your taxes. Doesn't matter who you want to win.
