Yeah, excitement and rum! Even though he's like... 14 lol. So maybe no rum.

You can do it. I BELIEVE IN YOU. AND ME. AND STUFF.

And Yeah, I need to think of which pet would be easiest. I need to purchase a real profile for Meekins as her current one is a hot mess I threw together when I was learning to Code. I might pick a slightly harder one, who doesn't have much done on them just to mix it up a bit.

Maybe just a little rum. Gotta start early when you're a pirate.

We can do it!

looks at Meekins Okay a little bit of a mess. But I've seen far worse. :P

Mmm, that's what I'm considering too. It might be fun to pick a pet that isn't so far along.

I wanted to get the Pet Challenge thing up this weekend, but I don't know if that is going to happen. But yeah, Fun and challenging. I will have to look at my pets and see what inspiration strikes. AFTER I FINISH YARRR.

I can't even remember what I said for it.

Basically Goals are set for each pet - and depending on what the goal is you get points. Like, TC is 1 pt per 10 items. Story is 25 points. Profile is 20 points. Overlay is 15 points. Finishing a pet completely is like... 40 points.

And then each point is worth like... idk, 50k in the shop? Which means a full pet with say 50 TC items can earn 7.5 mil? which... May be too much. lol. Might have to tweak the points, obviously.

But I wanted to reward people for achieving things. Maybe next weekend.

Let inspiration guide your way.

Oh points and all. Fancy. I thought pet progress was the only reward we needed. x) Extra incentive never hurts though.

How many points for actually coming up with character ideas for your poor characterless pets?

Oh that is a good one. Hmmm. Well Obviously I'm going to need to lower the points... so maybe 2?

LETS DO A SPREADSHEET. YEAH!

Yeah the points might be a bit high. Would this be going towards getting something from your shop or were you thinking of setting up a group shop stocked with MKB's and other pet favorites?

Spreadsheets are goooood!

I have a new shop Here where I'll keep the prizes. This is what I've come up with - and since the points stack I'll probably only have each point be worth 10k or something.

Creating a New Pet 1 point Coming up with idea/backstory 1 point Getting 10 TC items 2 Points Writing the Story 2 points Completing the profile 3 points Getting a Minion 1 point Getting an Overlay 2 points Extra Art for Pet 1 point per peice

Which means with a TC of 50 the average pet will net you 200k in prizes? I mean its a MKB. That might be a bit to low, now. Maybe... Double them so its 400k? WHAT DO YOU THINK? I THINK ITS A GOOD IDEA BUT NEED... NEED HELP SO BAD.

Very nice. Lots of MKB's.

200k total might be a bit low. Somewhere in the middle, but still an amount you feel comfortable with. Maybe set a max amount for stuff like tc's and art. Things you're likely to get more of. Just so you don't end up having to reward people for 500+ item tc's. Unless that's something you want to do. And then maybe say that once the pet is properly finished their accumulated points for that pet get doubled up?

That is a good idea. It really depends on what I have in there that people will want. If they will even want anything! I will have to think on it.

But first, I have to go eat. And then your story. Then my story and then... THE WORLD.

Well MKB's will always be popular. A headstart on your next pet. Maybe other people here will have great ideas for items.

Yes, go eat girl. About time you had some breakfast.

No longer just swimming in raffle tickets, now drowning. I've gotten 3-4 today. And it's not even 11 am.

- waves I've played Hearthstone too, but just to get the mount in WoW. I've been leveling my warlock like crazy. I went six levels last night (so close to 90) and then I will have four level 90 characters. I can't decide whom I want for my main character. I will probably be there again today, before we go pumpkin patch picking (first time ever) with the little one.

I haven't been working on pets here. snorts I browse the adoption center for more nostalgic color pets and I play in the pumpkin patch. I really would like to get Usakin a story and spotlight win around this time now though. Is anyone able to help? I have ideas but I can't get the words out - writer's block.

It is a larger project that will have to be worked on over the coming weeks. yes. Also I have eaten, hubs got me some breakfast although no bacon :(

And yeah, tons of them today it seems. I've only managed 2 but I haven't been posting a shit ton? Or have I? Idk. Maybe.

NOW TO YOUR STORY. YES.

Well mail me your ideas for the pet and I will try to find time to work on a story? But I charge 2k per word, just so you're aware :p

And pumpkin picking sounds fun! Its not a big thing here in the UK which makes me sad. Its massive back home in 'murica. :( Father in law's birthday today so thats going to... uhm be pretty terrible, I think. Not because its his birthday but because we're all a bunch of crabby bitches.

Definitely going to take some time to plan it all out.

Aww. Too bad. (I had bacon for breakfast ;))

It's nice though. So many items to get.

I don't really want anything in the shop - the only thing I collect these days are beanbags, so until they pop some of those in there or add something I OMG need for a TC...

Also I think my next pet is going to be my Harry Potter one, Adrianana or whatever her name is. lol.

I mostly want the foods and wearables... which is like half the items in there.

Oh HP OC. Lol that you can't even remember your own pet's name though. x)

Its like some crazy ass spelling. I can't remember the names of half of them, Im such a shit owner Lol.

Andriana. I was close. Ish.

Bad owner, yes. At least remember their names. That's the least of it.

To make up for this huge mistake, I have wishlisted a ton of HP theme items for her. Haven't bought them, just WL'd them lol.

I need to make a board about HP fan pets. I can't remember 90% of the items on site. And with the graveyard shop closed I may have to vend and hope I get things that work lol.

Good. She might forgive you then. There should be plenty of people with HP fan pets who can help you out. I can only think of some of the most obvious stuff. Wands, the HP inspired scarves and sweaters, the monster book thingy. x)

Yeah, she's super nerdy so I don't know if I want to have her TC full of books... or just read them to her? Im torn. she already has a shit ton of books read to her, because she was originally my NERDY PET Bashful.Beauty about 500 years ago. lol.
