I need some help on a decision.

OKay, on the @RDBP [Ignore the dying critters, I'll have Marina put them with Tim.] the list list is becoming a tad long.


I need some serious help with this consideration.

Should I take off the coves with only cave critters, like @hopeless?

That way the list is smaller, and we can focus on the coves with rares.

But, I'd feel bad doing that.

So I'm going to make a poll;


Post A if you think I should filter the coves with only common creatures out.

Post B if I should leave it as is.

Every creature is unique. Even the commons. You can try:

OPTION 1

Maybe you can separate it into two lists - rares as first priority, commons as second priority. I feel that the rares have more chances to survive, while the commons still have a chance to grow up.

OPTION 2

You can do an emergency list - the lowest happiness first. However, this can endanger the rares who will eventually die from this.

I know they're all unique, but I'm trying to take a step back and think.

The commons, you can easily get. If the person comes back, they can replace them easily.

And if I filter out the commons, people can be more focused on the rares, the ones you can't obtain. When they're gone, they're gone.


I know some may have sentimental value, but if I throw a hoard of eggs at people and say "FEED UHM" a lot will be unfed because people get tired about halfway.

I like your first idea.

But again, then the commons could die anyways cause people would be tired after feeding the rares.

@cafe
That's a bit of the point - they still have a chance, but I think that by doing this, the rares, irreplaceable, can be easily fed. Another suggestion - on the profiles of the dying users, why not put on their profile the next user waiting to be fed, and specify (commons) or (rares). Or you could put the next commons user and the next rares user. It could be some work, but it *will* pay off.

I am for filtering out the coves with only commons, they can be stolen again, the list is getting too long to keep all pets alive, so it's better to focus on the ones which cannot possibly be "remade". I know the non rares can also be special to the owner, but the impact of losing an LE creature is still bigger... I like @celeste's idea of two lists as well, you could also sort the list with the rare creatures by how many and how rare the creatures are (like caves with Onnies/Tines at the top etc).

EDIT: @celeste You can't put stuff on other people's profile I think o.o

I'll have to think about it.

I may try out your first idea, and if it doesn't work use my idea about taking out the common coves.

I think you shoud try to filter out the common eggs, unless they have an important meaning to you. And once all your others are grown up you can go back and start working on the common ones. The rare eggs are just that- rare, And you can never get them again. So maybe you should just wait until they are all grown up (:

@kitty


...What..?

I'm not talking about me o_o I'm talking about filtering out coves with just common critters in the RDBP o-O"?
