Welcome to Gaia! ::

@Caj: I entered cause Lorako is a sweetheart and i want her to have her babies XD

@Em: It will be EVIL if that happens, it's still a HUGE if, but it will be so completely insane

but that's not fair all the way around.

it's completely unfair to people who have more than one plot that's on hold beause they need a breeding.

Sayuri, sometimes it's not planned to happen. Me and Skye didnt really ever plan to have Remy have kids before he and Rogue hooked up but then the oppertunity presented itself though Rp it was a better plot device for the pair.

what are you suposed to do in that situation? Just say "Sorry i cant Rp with you cause it might lead to babies and we cant do that?"

I'd much rather have the Rp to back it up then wait for babies than get babies and have to back it up with Rp later

It's even more unfair for them to put in multipal pairs though and that way take away from the chance sof the people that only have one pair to put into the raffel.

In any case i don't think there is a way to make it fair for everyboody except for maybe to do two diffrent raffels depending on how many soquili you have *shruggs*

*shrugs*
I dont want to argue about it. It can be hard to get a breeding, so why dead-end yourself? This is simply MY opinion that's all.

DNS, that's why we keep saying to limit it to 2 soq's per person. That's fair to everyone. The people with multiaple Soq's get a little more of a chance and thoes with only one dont have that much of a disadvantage.

If you'd read back you'd find that most people are agreeing with. At the moment it seems to be the fairest way to do it. That way you dont piss off the thread regulars and heavy rpers who have man Soq and it's only a minor disadvantage to thoes with only one (and usually people dont stay with just one for long)

and Em. The keeping only one basket thing is wrong too. They are your baskets you should get to keep at least one from every breeding no matter if you got two breedings at once or not. Espically since it's such a low chance you are going to get two breedings at once.

and again this goes back to only allowing 2 Soq's per person so you dont have an owner entering like a 5 Soq's and getting that many baskets

It's also unfair to those with 1 Soq who are invovled with oen with multiples, who has antoehr couple already who hasn't bred. Think about thosw ith few Soqs or ONE Soq, who won't be able to breed cause fo the 1 limit. I don't mind a cap of total.

Also, just because someone ahs 2 couples in doesn't mean they're ANY more likely to land a breeding - and even then, they're nto the SAME couple - which means that one couple VERY LIEKLY is still not going to breed. Meaning someone, somewhere isn't getting their breeding.

Syr only has ONE Soquili right now. (Mind, this si an OOC breeding, which affects NONE of the RP aside in the open category whcih is exactly that, OPEN.) I made an offer when she asked - I don't know if anyone ELSE did. I am giving her the chance to be IN the raffle. (And we'll have potential to act.) SHE still had to do the entering as I could not. If she ahd 2 Soqs, she'd have ahd to choose between them, still forcing a potential cap.

This isn't the odl days of very few colorists and very few slots, people. And with more and more new owners, we should be encouraging them to interact with everyone, not just peopel with less Soquili so they make sure they can breed or something. D:

Would it be fair for a number of people to be stuck waiting months (as has happened because of the suppsoed rule of 1 ea.) to breed a certain couple whe that second couple could have had a shot (no guarantees at winning though!)? As in, thinking they can't eater their only Soq in a relationship ebcause someone else has a different couple entered they entered and think of a one soq limit?

See what I mean? You start to hurt the older owners who've earned more Soquili voer their time with a cap. The shop is now over a year old, and there's a LOT of owners now. Some have a number of Soqs, some don't. It still all comes down to luck, and it's not like Crowley AND Kahaina are going to win - the ods are NOT perfect enough to do so. It's still 1:15 or 1:10 or something on Kahaina alone, and Crowley's like 1:15 as well. Those are HORRIBLE odds. The odds of ME landing both? AHAHAHA.

Althoguh I have belief I should get to keep both fi I won both (Also, that takes both fof the rbeeding market for a month, leaving way more openings next month) - I DO have plans if that happens for giving AWAY a basket to someone. Oi, this isn't about greed or bettering my chances, this is allowing someoen a chance to breed who asked, AND potentially havign a absket to give to soemeon whom I think deserves one.

Edit: Well, yeah - you're paying the 6k you should get a choice to keep or NOT. Again, odds to NOT favor you winning ALL your entries, AND the fact you STILL have the owners of the mates getting baskets too. WHY should the mate's owners be punished if I own several Soqs? D:

I am one who does not agree, just to comment. Giving some people twice the chance than others... ::shrugs:: Again, my concience protests. If we end up with that rule, I simply won't be entering unless I and my fellow owner in the breeding are only entering once. I refuse to get a jump on others due to my own greediness for foals. I'll give up my spot in breedings rather than succumb to that.
