Item #: SCP-XXXX

Object Class: Safe

Special Containment Procedures: SCP-XXXX is to be contained in a steel room. The object should be on a table,m and the door to the containment chamber should be locked at all times. No interaction with SCP-XXXX is allowed without a 3/4 majority vote by 05. A security camera is to be kept in the chamber to ensure no unauthorized interaction with the object. The object is to be contained in Sector [DATA EXPUNGED].

Description: SCP-XXXX is an old slot machine, predicted to be made in the 1960s. When activating the object (via pulling the lever), only 2 possible winning combinations are possible. These combinations are 3 lemons in a row, or three 7s in a row.

When winning with 3 lemons, the winner is overcome with incredible grief (see interview A). This grief usually results in the winner committing suicide, or rarely non-suicidal self harm. Some have started crying so uncontrollably that is causes the throat to swell, ultimately resulting in choking to death. The Foundation has failed to find a solid reason for the grief.

When one wins with 3 7s, no visible change is shown. However, it has been reported that those who win with triple 7s have had tremendous luck, such as surviving near-death experiences, winning the lottery, etc (see interview B).

If SCP-XXXX is used but no winning combination is spun, the player becomes so obseesed with winning that they are incapable of leaving the object until they do. Any attempt to remove the player may result in hostile behavior from them. The longest lasting stay with SCP-XXXX is approximately 3 days (see interview C).

Addendum: SCP-XXXX has physical and mechanical blemishes and trauma. The object's exterior is dented in various areas and appears to be slightly burned. Mechanical trauma includes creaking of the spinners and slow speed of the spinners.

Interviewer: How are you feeling, my good sir?

Person: Like shit. Why… WHY AM I STILL ALIVE?! (The Class C can be heard sobbing) Why couldn't it have just killed me? (Sniffles are heard)

Interviewer: Sir, I'm going to have to ask you to calm down. Now, I need to know: Why do you feel like this?
Person: I just started thinking about…about my life, y'know? It just SUCKS! All I've ever done completely SUCKS!! (Strangled choking is heard)
Interviewer: No! (Something heavy is heard hitting the floor). The man is dead. He seems to have choked to death.

Interviewer: We're beginning.

Person: Great.

Interviewer: Yes, well. I understand you were sent in for testing on SCP-XXXX. Am I correct?

Person: …So? Did I do something wrong?
Interviewer: Not at all. Can you tell me what has been happening after you left the containment chamber?
Person: Well, everything has been really great, actually. Every time I get sent to test a Euclid or Keter SCP, I'll get to the containment area and something or another will error, and I get off the hook!
Interviewer: Well…(Scribbling on notepad) Has anything else unusual happened?
Person: Other than me being unusually relaxed? (Puts feet on table) No.
