However, when Mrs. Puff discovers an unflattering drawing of her made by Patrick, she believes that [=SpongeBob=] drew it and removes one of his Good Noodle Stars. Later in the episode, after [=SpongeBob=] and Patrick manage to save the unhatched egg of Roger when the light bulb that gives it warmth goes out, Mrs. Puff gives each of them a Good Noodle Star.

** In the episode "Jeffy the Good Boy!", Jeffy wants to get a UsefulNotes/Playstation5 and an UsefulNotes/XboxSeriesX. Rosalina comes up with the idea for a good boy chart, where Jeffy will earn a gold star for good behavior, and lose one for bad behavior, and if Jeffy successfully gets 25 stars, then Mario will buy him one of the two new consoles. Black Yoshi hears about this and tries to make his own "gud Boi Charp" with 50 stars on it so he can get the consoles, which Mario doesn't fall for. Black Yoshi later tells Jeffy to trick both Rosalina and Mario by stealing the gold stars and putting them on the chart, then showing it to each of them so that they'll give him one of the two consoles. The plan works, as Mario buys Jeffy a [=PS5=] and Rosalina buys Jeffy an Xbox Series X. When Rosalina and Mario find out that they each bought Jeffy a console, they find out about Jeffy and Black Yoshi's trick, and punish them both [[CoolAndUnusualPunishment by playing the consoles right in front of them and not giving them a turn]], given that they paid for the consoles with their own money.

* Ms. Applegate from ''VideoGame/{{Kindergarten}}'' has a more unethical take on this trope: She gives gold stars to students who get their classmates killed, since she hates all of them. Her route centres around getting ''all'' the other children killed in various ways, and she rewards the protagonist with a gold star each time, as well as a lunch pass once you've gotten rid of them all.

Added DiffLines:

* In ''Literature/ThiefOfTime'', Miss Susan has gold and silver stars she awards to students. Vincent, the annoying TeachersPet, is particularly keen on getting them, although he doesn't much care which. Susan also ''weighs'' the stars based on the students -- Vincent answering multiple questions in a row, as usual, gets a silver, while a generally vacant student managing to come up with an ''interesting'' answer to a question that baffled Vincent because it didn't have a clear answer gets a gold one.

* ''Series/AvataroSentaiDonbrothers'': Whenever the Donbrothers transform and battle Hitotsu-Ki, they accumulate a WeirdCurrency called "Kibi-Points." Kibi-Points can be traded in for various favors and wishes, though they tend to come with misfortune and side-effects in proportion to the gravity of the wish.

* ''VideoGame/BeyondASteelSky'' has the Qdos (pronounced "Kudos") system. Each citizen's social status is determined by their Qdos level, which is gained by conformist behavior. The higher your Qdos score is, the more services and luxury you have access to.



* ''VideoGame/IWasATeenageExocolonist'': Kudos, the setting's currency, work like the WeirdCurrency variant, as they are entirely meant to reward others rather than oneself. One can receive them for any act that's appreciated by someone else, while taking them away is a possible means of punishing a disobedient child or work that was too sloppily done. They can also be earned from doing a needed job or doing well in school for an entire month.
