Welcome to !Blub! a genetic fish adoptable. Main thread is >here<
The information booth is >here< & genetics can be discussed >here<

No worries, I am currently catching up with the non owner freebies and final prizes from the dice game thread, so those will all be completed within a couple days ^^ But since Christmas is fast approaching, time to get the events started <3

We'll be doing a Secret Santa and there are present boxes for sale! I'm considering doing a small flatsale with christmas-colored !Blub! (so green/red/white/gold pretty much), if you are interested in this please let me know as I won't set one up without interest.

Secret Santa
This isn't the best adoptable for a Secret Santa since it's genetic based so you can't pick exact colors and first generation pets have no markings, but I hope I've figured out a good solution and people will have fun <3 So here's the plan: I'll randomize some genetic strings and color them up, your Secret Santa can pick a palette, breed and gender and I'll color up the !Blub! matching these choices.

Example of what the color palettes will look like:

The biggest color would be the body color, the middle one the fins and the small one the eyes.

Present Boxes
What's a Christmas without presents? Here you can buy gifts for your friends! The present box supply is unlimited except the breeding present and you may gift to however many people you want. However, to make sure I can handle the workload, you may only buy up to two gifts for the same person. The person purchasing the gift is also the one to make the choices to make sure I can color all !Blub! upfront. Gifts may be purchased until the end of December 15.

There are five types of boxes available:

1. one completely random !Blub! - 25K
2. one !Blub! where you pick species* and gender, colors are random - 50K
3. one !Blub! where you pick species*, gender and one color it must or must not include - 75K
4. one !Blub! where you pick species*, gender and up to 10 genes# - 100K
5. one out of season breeding* (1/5 available) - 250K

Please post the order form in this thread, unless you really want it to be anonymous, in which case the order may be PMed. Send SG right away when placing your order.

Fissssshhhes!  I am interested in a flatsale,Christmas or otherwise :P  Can you add Silver to your Christmas colors though?  Silver is a Christmas color too, yes it is!  Silver tinsel and silver stars, silver glitter all through my hair for work.. oh wait, that's not helping my case is it? lol  Gosh I hate glitter!  Ahem anyway  Moonlight on fresh fallen snow in the forest looks silver!  hrm.. Oh yea, and Silver bells!  Yea! Isn't that a song even? 

*hands in her form and wanders off muttering about pesky glitter covering everything*

Wild brought up a good question through PM! What if you don't want your gift to be anonymous but you don't want people to see the choices? Well in that case please post the order form here, put 'PM' for choices and PM me the complete forms wíth choices. This is because the gift boxes are tiny and I can't think of a good way to add the gifter's name to the boxes, so by posting your order here everyone can see who gifted them.

This being said, all current gifts I put up right now are Wild's <3

YLO where can we view all owned fishes (in case we wanted to gift a breeding using their fishes) the owners list here ( http://www.secundi.net/forum.php?topic=6354.0 ) is not completely updated yet, is there somewhere else to look, or should we just use our own fishes if we gift breedings, or forgo that gifting option?

ETA: I just noticed in the owners thread, one of the posts there doesn't list the owners name, and you have Aralie listed in two separate posts :)

Yeah things have been a bit unhelpful healthwise so I'm behind on schedule. They'll either be updated before gifting closes or gifting will be extended, no worries :)

I'll fix the mistakes when I'm updating. I hope to get around to it by this weekend, I am currently slowly working my way through the unfinished prizes from the previous thread.

Kadana Sorano

ahh gotcha, thanks.  And no worries, if you don't have time to get to it.  Let me know I'll pick different gifts :)

All presents are delivered! The goal is to finish with all owed things and updating the owner folders today or tomorrow so I can start on all these presents on the 16th. I'm pretty sure I can do that ^^

YourLoveOnly

*falls over* All owed stuff except Aralie's breeding win done and I have updated the owner thread! I have not yet loaded in all the growths, but at least all fish are there <3
http://www.secundi.net/forum.php?topic=6354.0

Any fish with an ID before #272 should have been an adult already and are eligible to be used in the breedings.

Growths that should have happened already will occur asap, hopefully Monday at the latest. Aralie's owed breeding will also arrive by then (and be PMed)

Everything else looks fine! The Secret Santa choices should be done by Tuesday at the latest.

And people participating in Secret Santa now have a PM with instructions to pick a gift!

Note: Presents may be opening late. I have a migraine attack coming, and it feels like it will be a very severe one that will last at least 24 hours, leaving me with just a couple hours to color and upload everything. During Christmas I'll be at my parents with no internet access. I'll make sure everything is finished by Newyears though. Secret Santa should hopefully arrive on Christmas Eve though.

Huge delay is huge. Sorry guys <3

Sunchaser was Secret Santa for Wildfilly,
Wildfilly was Secret Santa for Bunraku,
Aralie was Secret Santa for Winged dreams,
Kadana was secret Santa for Aralie,
Winged dreams was Secret Santa for SweetCaroline,
and finally SweetCaroline was Secret Santa for Sunchaser!

I did this on purpose so those who wish not to know don't have to look :)

To do:
Adopt out !Blub! #300
Opening all the presents
Doing Aralie's breeding
Growths
Updating owner folders with Christmas fish and growths
