Or the players can copy the same character multiple times to the test server and buy what that character can, claim the items, and proceed to the next copy. Even a character that only has 6 empyrean merits can, with multiple copies, buy everything. At that point everything will be unlocked globally on the test server.
Copying a character over and over is a heavy kludge. It also wouldn't help those that don't normally run Trials, but might if the costumes and emotes were worth it to them to start running them. They would have zero merits.

It would be easier to just run a script that rewards all characters currently on Test enough of both merits to unlock everything, or reward a freshly copied character at a certain date (after giving notice that the script was happening).

Loose --> not tight.
Lose --> Did not win, misplace, cannot find, subtract.
One extra 'o' makes a big difference.

It's a new currency. You see Paragon Studios is trying to get into the Guinness book of records for "Most Simultaneous Currencies in an MMO" so they created a special currnecy just for ZombieMan. Vindication merits can only be exchanged for other Vindication merits but it turns out that's still counts for the record.
