apologems 

In-game currency given for free to the game's playerbase as apology for maintenance, glitches, or other issues or obstacles in game play. Derived from a portmanteau of the words "apology" and "gems", because many games use gems, jewels, or diamonds to represent in-game currency. Apologems often consist of particularly valuable forms of in-game currency, such as those which can be obtained via microtransactions.

Kate: It sucks, but hopefully they'll send us all some apologems to compensate.

yellow brick road apologetics 

Coined by Robert M. Price in "The Case Against The Case For Christ", derived from The Wizard of Oz.

Arguing for the truth of a controversial, often religiously significant claim by presupposing the truth of some other equally controversial claim.
"This is why, if apologists like William Lane Craig can get an opponent as far as admitting that Joseph of Arimathea probably did have Jesus interred in his own tomb, and if the women did probably visit the tomb, and that the tomb was probably found to be empty, he can press on to the conclusion that Bingo! Jesus must have risen from the dead! What they somehow do not see is that to argue thus is like arguing that the Emerald City of Oz must actually exist since, otherwise, where would the Yellow Brick Road lead?" -The Case Against The Case For Christ (p.209)

"The disciples clearly didn't hallucinate Jesus after the crucifixion since he allowed Thomas to poke his wounds and he shared bread with them. Simultaneous hallucinations involving multiple sensory modalities just don't happen."
"Yeah, that's just yellow brick road apologetics."
