Mael has won the Pet Spotlight!

What this REALLY proves is how many people look at the pet spotlight !!
YAY!
I third what Emilee said. No need to get so worked up. The thing has proven that it still has some bugs to be worked out. It's one of the newest areas of the sites, it's still very far from perfect. Stop clutching your pearls, sit down, take a few deep breaths, and relax.
And maybe not looking at Mael's n00d-ness will help. ![]()

This is my favorite pet spotlight to date. ![]()
Doesn't matter if it had a good profile before or after -- many people look forward to a decent winner every night. It doesn't fit any of the criteria, therefore, it doesn't deserve the trophy or spot. It IS a mistake, certainly, but mistakes are fixable, and to fix that, the staff should repick a new winner, one that actually deserves to win.
Too bad if it had a good profile before.
It is trivial for people to be throwing a tantrum over a thing like this, but it doesn't deserve the trophy or spot whatsoever. I think the whining is justified, even if it is annoying.
Good Lord, kids, cover your eyes, Mael is nekkid!
Kiarae, that is already in effect actually.
Didn't mean to sound bitchy but some of you are outrageously obnoxious at the slightest errors made here.
I know people work very hard on stories, character development, artwork, treasure etc... but throwing a tantrum doesn't fix anything.
I can't wait to see the profile once it is back to the original owner. ( Based on people's comments, it was something spiffy.)
Ok, so you don't make mistakes? Maybe she transferred the pet before the spotlight option was active... or simply forgot. Get over it. Some of you act like Subeta is the meaning of life itself... step outside of your cave & breathe some fresh air cause you obviously aren't getting enough oxygen to fuel the reality center in your brains.
Seconding what Emilee said.
Calm down people. Goddamn. BAWWWW MISTAKES CAN'T HAPPEN.
I want to say that it's because the Pet Spotlight is still quite new, so kinks are still in the system. :T
wow, so many people getting so pissy! the thing GLITCHED. settle down, holy moly. there's no reason to hiss and growl and scratch. it's just like the way the multiple wins happened: A. GLITCH. settle down, sheesh. it's nothing to get so seemingly crazy & worked up over.
If you're going to transfer your pet to someone, at least take it OFF the "nominate for spotlight" list under your prefs. Leaving it open to be nominated, when you know it'll soon be blank/different somehow is... I don't know, not exactly irresponsible per se. It's just frustrating... truly frustrating. I'm sure something can be done about this, but I know MANY other users who spend too much time on their pets to let the slot be taken by a mistake.
Hearse has an awesome story for him trust me, I've read some of it...not sure how this mistake was made though.
If it used to be Hearse's it's profile was amazing. She has pretty awesome pets.
This is bullshit.
Poor, poor Mael. Look at him with his tail between his legs. -pats- There, there, your day will come. Oh wait...
wow ... is this a joke ?
Anyone want to have a contest seeing who can sMail Keith and the staff the most times asking them to re-pick? XD
Just wondering because it sounds like fun XD
Hmmmm lucky break for hearse since the pet profile sucks and all that jazz.
Nice picking of a winner. Not
Okay, SRSLY?
This is just getting ridiculous. :|

- Aesthetically pleasing profile
- Well-thought-out story
- Appropriate treasure chest
- Appropriate minion
Um...XD
I've changed my mind...
This is the best pet ever...He is like...Super Pet! XD
lol oh my. well, congratulations hearse?
LMAO!!!! Best fail ever... and this has the most comments thus far! haha, that's humorous.
Oh well. lol.
Poor thing probably had a beautiful profile before and everything :/
Hope this gets fixed though. Best solution now would be just to re-draw and throw him back in the queue for later, butttttttttt......
there's not much to read except it's going to someone.
Well I think he's cute. ^-^
Maybe instead of a removal from the queue (since that could be a problem), there could be some kind of locking system for when you put your pet as "ready" for getting nominated? So you can't modify it while it's ready or something, but you could unlock it by clicking "no" and modify it then.
Or something...
Oh man, I wish I had this kinda skill ): .. And people to hold pets for me ;; Clearly I am doing it wrong.
it's not that no one read it. jeez. the fact still stands that there's nothing there RIGHT NOW. so it's not worthy of a win. :/
geez how often do they check the pets in the queue?
Hey guys, did anyone besides me notice how the spotlight winner isn't really up to par tonight?

yes it is
I'm getting a bit disappointed with the spotlight lately honestly, because when it's not glitching, things like this are happening.
But yeah I'm echoing Nikki here... it would be nice if transferring a pet disqualified nominations.
I guess that's true. Can't the old owner just give the new one their coding? (I don't know how the whole profile thing works so maybe I should just shut up? XD)
Is it really necessary for everyone to reapeat the same crap over and over?? I'm pretty sure the staff will handle this.
I doubt they'll re-pick ![]()
Lewl ![]()
I guess the system doesn't do periodic re-checks of pets who have been in the queue for a while, or this was a very recent change to the pet.
BUT! For those saying glitches should just be dealt with, this counts too!

That wouldn't be the work of the current owner. I don't find that fair either.
QUIT TROLLIN!!!!!
I wish they'd repick... I always love seeing the pets who win so this is a major disappointment (regardless of whether or not this pet WAS good). I agree with Nikki, transfer or abandoning should automatically remove a pet's nomination.
Poor guy. It's his spotlight day and he's standing there naked. xD
Is there any way to put the profile back in order on the new account so that we can see it lol?
rofl oh pet spotlight how you continue to baffle/amuse me.
Best. Pet. EVER.
It doesn't matter if the pet had an amazing profile or story before. It doesn't now and isn't even on the correct account. It certainly shouldn't have won.
lol yeah, it may have been amazing or whatever prior to it being blank, but uh, that really counts for nothing if it's empty on the day it wins. Looks like there's a couple glitches that need sorting out in the pet spotlight department.
I agree with everyone here, transfer should remove it form the queue : I'm sure it had a pretty cool profile but now it won't be known for that
A repick would be nice just so maybe down the line when this pet has a profile again it can win properly.

And we can only GUESS it used to be win-worthy.
But, right now, I think 95% of people agree than it is not win-worthy right now.
and
Yeah seriously, it must have been an awesome profile to win in the first place. Congrats on that at least![]()
Congrats to the owner/soon-to-be owner of Mael. I'm sure the profile was amazing. <3
I happen to think it's incredibly depressing that this is the spotlight with the most comments. lol
