- Participate in the SWYAD, which gives you 30 SOF Tickets.
- You can trade your doubloons to get SOF Tickets using Karen's Doubloon to Ticket Converter 3000.
Forums
Just like the past two festivals, for a limited time during the event, the Spin-Off/Lit games forum and user store forum were brought back as two exclusive forums, named "Glove Universe Rides" and "Glove Universe Market" respectively, two sub-forums under the Spin-Off Festival 7 forum. The two forums were removed in the past due to lack of activity, and were brought back only to fit the theme. The mini-games could be found in Glove Universe Rides.

If you landed on Wah wah wah, you got nothing, but if you land on the others, you would get those prizes. You could only spin once a day. There were 12 slots on the wheel instead of 9 this year.
Balloon Pop
Users had to throw darts at spin-off/lit balloons, containing different SOF Ticket values or nothing inside them at all. Your dart can hit or miss depending on the generator's outcome. You could only play once a day.
