Community Service is the Fall 2015 special challenge path, introduced on August 15, 2015. This path adds variant rules and restrictions to an ascension run. Its description in The Bureau of Reincarnation reads "The ultimate in real-life time savings. All Council Quests are replaced with single button-clicks!"
Divergences
- The council is out:
- The door to the Council of Loathing building is locked, and a notice is posted about how they got kicked off the council for not doing their mandatory community service, which is apparently a thing. There's a list of community service opportunities posted as well..
- Instead you have to perform 11 acts of Community Service
- Each act takes 60 adventures.
- Most acts you can speed up by boosting a specific stat
- Once 11 acts are complete, you have to donate your body to science.
- You can pull only 5 items per day.
- Areas that the Council instructs you to visit are generally impossible to reach without reinstating the Council--that is, by ascending into a non-Community Service path.
- Level 3: The Typical Tavern
- Level 4: The Bat Hole
- Level 5: The interior of Cobb's Knob. It is possible to get a Knob Goblin encryption key in run, but you will not receive the corresponding map.
- Level 6: Copse of the Deep Fat Friars and Pandamonium. (No Steel Organ)
- Level 7: The Cyrpt
- Level 8: Mt. McLargeHuge
- Level 9: You can not reach The Orc Chasm, get to The Highlands, or venture to The Valley of Rof L'm Fao.
- Level 10: You can not plant The Beanstalk
- Level 11: You can not receive your father's MacGuffin diary, so no more visits to The Hidden City or The Palindome. You will not find The Arid, Extra-Dry Desert or discover A Small Pyramid.
- Level 12: You can not start the war, so you will only get the antebellum The Mysterious Island of Mystery.
- The only exceptions are The Distant Woods or areas that have alternate unlock methods such as Whitey's Grove.

Council text
- First time visiting:
- The door to the Council of Loathing building is locked, and a notice is posted about how they got kicked off the council for not doing their mandatory community service, which is apparently a thing. There's a list of community service opportunities posted as well.
Look at the list

Strategy
Task | Reduced by | Reward | Effects |
---|---|---|---|
Coil Wire | nothing | a ten-percent bonus |
|
Donate Blood | HP | blood-drive sticker |
|
Feed The Children (But Not Too Much) | Muscle | bag of grain |
|
Build Playground Mazes | Mysticality | pocket maze |
|
Feed Conspirators | Moxie | shady shades |
|
Breed More Collies | Familiar Weight | squeaky toy rose |
|
Reduce Gazelle Population | Melee Damage | weird gazelle steak |
|
Make Sausage | Spell Damage | sausage without a cause |
|
Be a Living Statue | Non-Combat Frequency | silver face paint |
|
Make Margaritas | Item and Booze Drops | emergency margarita |
|
Clean Steam Tunnels | Hot Resistance | vintage smart drink |
|
- Lots of the rewards provide a one-adventure bonus to a stat. So you can use them to do another Community Service.
- Coil Wire - can't be sped up, so you can do it early in the run
- Donate Blood - look into Maximizing Your HP
- Feed The Children (But Not Too Much) - look into Maximizing Your Muscle
- Build Playground Mazes - look into Maximizing Your Mysticality
- Feed Conspirators - it appears that around +100% of a stat reduces the turn count by one. (439% moxie gave 56 adventures; 539% gave 54 adventures.) Look into Maximizing Your Moxie
- Breed More Collies - 5 familiar level turns into 1 fewer adventures, so look into Maximizing Your Familiar Weight
- Reduce Gazelle Population - look into Maximizing Your Weapon Damage
- Make Sausage - look into Maximizing Your Spell Damage
- Be a Living Statue - 5% less Combat Frequency turns into 3 fewer adventures, so look into Combat Frequency
- Make Margaritas - look into Maximizing Your Item Drops
- Clean Steam Tunnels - 1 point hot resistance turns into 1 fewer adventures, so look into Maximizing Your Elemental Resistance
- There might be a clever way of doing ordering the tasks (A Rose by Any Other Material only helps with Be a Living Statue, so maybe do that one last?)
