Default Victory Token Exchange

I'm not asking much, or something complicated. And it could be easily implemented in the next Festival. Just make those Victory tokens, Luna tokens, ect. trade-able to the NPC's in the boardwalk for tickets. I.e. 5 tokens=10 tickets. That's just an example, change it how you want. You could maybe trade tickets for tokens, but it'd have to be a big price, because you shouldn't be able to BUY the mask. Maybe like this:

250 tickets=15 tokens. Maybe?

Questions? Suggestions?

This is actually a good idea. It makes sense, and while tickets are pretty cheap, it would be nice to put all those extra tokens to another use. /signed

Given the below post is still true, there's already a pretty good way to turn tokens into tickets. No matter the ratio of exchange in the other direction, you would indeed be creating a way to buy the mask, since tickets are something that can be directly purchased.

Changing my mind about a year later to not support this idea.

Victory tokens are sort of a currency for Dragon Fest, why not expand their use?

Another use of the victory tokens. Why not?

Step 1. Talk to this dude, and give him 10 tokens for Red Bean Cake or Rice Wine.
Step 2. Sell the item(s) from step 1 to merchant.
Step 3. Use gold from step 2 to buy Festival Tickets.

Congratulations! You just exchanged tokens for tickets. 250 tokens = 333 tickets.

Since it's already possible to exchange tokens for tickets anyway, adding tickets to one of the collectors or making a new one would make exchanging easier. Simplifying the process would be welcome.

Epic win.

Oh man, I was hoping they'd do cupcakes again this year...

Drat - I think you can still get 150g+ per party point pretty easily, so you might be better off getting fireworks and selling them in Spamadan...
