CERN V2
After excellent feedback from the community and rigorous testing the Head of Laboratory is ready to launch CERN V2. William the Insane was able to enhance some features including multiplying the efficiency and reward system of Crazy Scientists by using their little helpers — Laboratory Rats.
What is CERN
If you have already tested CERN then feel free to skip to ‘What is new with CERN’. If you are new, start here. Inspired by CERN, The Laboratory (The Lab) is creating an experience for its community to put their Crazy Scientist NFTs to work by conducting experiments for the Head of Laboratory.
The intent for CERN is to reward long-term community members with an adventure-like experience for staking and a degree of randomisation, similar to fighting fiends within a dungeon to finally kill the boss and be rewarded with a chance of rare loot. CERN (version 1) has over 60 outcomes across the three experiments. William the Insane will work hard to make this complex contract as gas efficient as possible and will likely cost less than a simple transaction than some DEXs on Cronos.
The Head of the Laboratory (HoL) will have experiments for Crazy Scientists to conduct to test some of his theories. Crazy Scientist participants will be rewarded for their dedication with the following rewards:
— CRO tokens
— LAB tokens
— Compound X NFT
— Compound Y NFT
Compound Y & Compound X utility will be become apparent in the release of Crazy Critters Arena and enhancing your Crazy Critters.
Head of Laboratory Experiments
As a Crazy Scientist, the HoL has three experiments available:
- Test the Gravitational behaviour of Antimatter using the Gravitational Behaviour of Antihydrogen at Rest (GBAR) (5 Days)
- ALICE (A Large Ion Collider Experiment), create quark-gluon plasma (10 Days)
- Create Antimatter with the Antiproton Decelerator (CAAD) (20 Days)

Your Crazy Scientist will be required to commit to the experiments, so please consider your own situation before committing. The prizes are randomised, and more in-depth detail will be released in the ‘step by step CERN guide’ in our Gitbook/ Whitepaper.
What is new with CERN
The community were able to give excellent ideas to CERN to enhance the experience. Some of the ideas we have kept for Crazy Critters Arena, and some for CERN V2. The 5 significant updates for CERN are:
1/ A CS will generally have 5 Lab Rats to support per experiment. Lab Rats provide a multiplier to CERN rewards. There is a limit of 80 Lab Rats per experiment. The percentages for Lab rats per CS NFT staked are 1 = 3%, 2 = 4.5%, 3 = 6%, 4 = 7.5%, 5 = 9% (so you’re much better off filling a scientist with 5 labRats than just 1)
2/ CERN reward system has been altered to sustainable longer term reward system. Additionally, CS NFT holders can opt to simply stake their NFTs with only CRO transaction costs or increase their chances to be rewarded with CY & CX NFTs.
3/ The Fast Forward button is operational again. CS NFT stakers can now opt to not wait for the experiment duration but at a cost of CERN. The cost is per CS NFT and the bigger the experiment the bigger the CERN token cost.
4/Leaderboard. In CERN V1 our leaderboard system was essentially too data hungry. William has optimised it so that the leaderboard properly displays user’s scores.
5/Admin Dashboard. The admin dashboard received some upgrade to enhance the admin’s experience and features.
