-.-; Silv told me to do it
Want me to color for you, PM? :3
Yes, I did. Garney deserves fun fishies after all her hard works. (And after managing to get all the rest of us a way to get more fishies! *celebrates*)
I woudl love that SplitX. My hand is cramping up from certing over 100 orlaya *stupid arthritis*
ETA: A male would be nice if possible
Can do, PM! :3 If you want, gimme like... 3 or so colors to work with?
I just templated the female for myself to make it easier. XDDD Now... the male!
-eyes clock warily- Almost midnight. T_T;
Question - do we need to shade them, or will you be able to shade them?
if it would be easier to make a female that is fine, just figure got a female and an unknown egg
White, Brown and light blue
I just hope the bills are paid for a while Garney. hugs
I will shade them. Uness you want to shade your own.
So does this work? >___>;
-crosses fingers- XD It's my Aurora~. If so, I'll post the form for her. n__n

Ooh, I need to mention, again, these are considered starters, which means, even if you manage to match markings of a coloration mutation, starters are un-mutated. They will look just as pretty, and I will be sure to mark them as carrying any mutation you get close to or match!
Ooh that's so neat! -pats Aurora- I doubt you're even close, honey. XD -loves on her- You're pretty, though! -puffs out chest-

ooo good to know :D

Oh, WOW, Silv! She's absolutely gorgeous. o.o I wish I could color as well as you! n___n
Awe, thanks! #^_^# Hard to go wrong with a brook trout, though. *huggles the pretties*
I would like to claim the last slot please :D
Yeah, but it's hard to go right with such a complex coloring! ^__^ I know all of the Secundi colorists are amazing, but still... That blows me away. <3

Hunni, it looks like the last slot was already taken. I can, however, offer you a free breeding (male and female free) if you would like, just remind me when you post a breeding form next.
There are some very lovely fish in here. It makes me almost wish the patterns were free-form instead of genetic!
Ahahahaha, Splitty you're the best! She's jawdropping amazing XD

I promised this was a 1 time deal.
Gallery seems to have decided it won't work with me unless I find a way to send virtual coffee. We are currently locked in a tug-o-war of will.
OHHH I thought you just meant for coloring your own. n__n I get it! Eheheeee. ^__^; -feels stupid- Sorry to have bothered you. x3
.-. o-o .-.
You didn't both me silly. Chatting gives me something to do between attempts to reload Gallery. smiles
Okay good. n__n I just felt stupid for my questions. xD
If anyone wants to breed with my boy, please let me know<3
Gallery is giving me so much problem, I hope nobody minds, but I have decided to go insane today. Please ignore the scary clowns and penguins.
I really am trying to get things done for you all.
If you need a personl day, take it! Everyone will understand.
That's the problem. I'm on a roll, I'm motivated to get thing done, I don't have a headache or eyestrain or anywhere to be. I'm looking forward to getting things up here so people can breed them. I'm having fun. It just figures the website would be a snot now. I do believe I shall poke it with something sharp and gooey now.
For the record, as soon as you have a fish colored (provided you had a slot) you may post it for breeding, don't worry about it being uploaded yet. I would feel horrible if someone missed a breeding because of this.
Awesome!
I colored one up for Sculli. X3 Also for YLO annnd PM. <3 They should be posting theirs today, I do believe.

I discovered the problem! Or, at least, what I will insist was the problem. It was 1 of 2 possible things. Either the website was waiting for SplitX to threaten it with jelly, or my snake (who has only ever tried to escape his cage 1 time before in the 6+ years I've owned him) was psychicly blocking the website, because he wished to get out of his cage and explore.
I say this because, as soon as you threatened the site, and as soon as I let my snake out onto the bed, where he was trying to go, the site began to work again.
All of the CYO's that have been posted to her are uploaded and in pickups!
XDDD -cackles- I'm magic! -flex-

No problem, he was a lot of fun to color X3~<3
Nice job Solista! If we'd been allowed two CYO's I probably would have picked a rainbow to do. <3 Rainbows. :)
Now I feel silly with my solid color girl XD So many beautiful fishies.
Haha, can you imagine all the beautiful fish if everyone had been allowed more than 1? 8D
And mmm Rainbow Trout, I used to catch them as a kid before I got old enough to have to have a fishing license X3 (they're such pretty fish, even if they are common >w< )

Could people who've colored for others do me a favor and type in CYO in the search bar of the gallery, to make sure I'm giving proper credit for the colorists?
Guh, sera is slow. . . my smom just went home today, though, and things have been NUTS. x__X; i hope to be able to colour tonight.
I see proper credit for me =D
My Fishy! Colored for me by Silvanon. Thank you Silv! *bearhugs*
Notes: Silv has done the shading and highlighting on this boy, I'd like to keep it please, so if you can not add the normal ones you use that'd be lovely :)
Please replace the ? marks in his name with whatever his id number is.
I forgot what you said to list the base colors as, since "Clear" or "See Through" is not a color heh And I forgot to ask you to remind me before you went off to read so.. leaving those fields with ? marks until you're back around to remind me.

New game on front page. Only 2.5 hours left on the first one.
Username-Solistia
What do you think would make this funnermore fun?-Proper grammar, j/k....I mean, more fun events? 8D;; I've liked all the ones so far X3 you're on a roll!
What is a good price for future spawnings (consider you get 3 eggs)?-Taking into account that these are quite popular, and the sheer amount of eggs just in this first season, you could easily charge 2 or 3 times the current amount (also, raising the price, might discourage some people from breeding too much? therefore giving you a little more breathing space XD)
Would you like to see these become an agency, once that option opens?-I definitely do! =D
How many fish do you want before you stop collecting?-ALL OF THEM....I mean....a lot?
Should I limit future breeding slots to get them done faster?-I think it's entirely up to you and what you think you can handle before getting burned out.
Should I make blotters (breeding items) that can be bought and stored?-I personally like it the way it is, but if you think that'd be more helpful, go for it!
Should I hire staff to help me color?-I would say only if you're feeling overwhelmed. Secundi is still a small and close-knit enough community where I think an adoptable owner can be the only colorist, and still satisfy the needs of the customers.
Any suggestions?-I know you said you were going to limit starters to only 100, but perhaps as the shop grows larger and larger, maybe add another starter here and there? It will still keep them rare, but also allow for new owners the chance at a starter without having to bribe one away from a current owner.
Username- PonyMama
What do you think would make this funner?- seems ok so far
What is a good price for future spawnings (consider you get 3 eggs)?- I think it should continue to be the same, just cause it allows people who just join secundi to participate as well.
Would you like to see these become an agency, once that option opens?- sure
How many fish do you want before you stop collecting?- until it gets too frustrating to get fish (I have had this happen where I can get a couple then the same people keep winning the critters and it becomes too much of a disappointment)
Should I limit future breeding slots to get them done faster?- Maybe at times, but should have an open breeding season when you have the time
Should I make blotters (breeding items) that can be bought and stored?- it would be helpful for those who have a hard time with sg
Should I hire staff to help me color?- if you want to have mroe events, or don't want to limit breeding season this would be a great idea.
Any suggestions? Not really at this time.
Username- TheLeet
What do you think would make this funner?- It's pretty fun so far. I'm really bad at coming up with fun ideas for adoptables. sorry :(
What is a good price for future spawnings (consider you get 3 eggs)?- I think you should keep the price as it is. Being able to breed them cheaply is part of the fun and I think people would be less motivated to try to solve the genetic code if breeding got too expensive.
Would you like to see these become an agency, once that option opens?- yes, of course
How many fish do you want before you stop collecting?- I have no idea. I generally don't stop collecting because I have too many of one adoptable - I stop collecting because of real life being hectic or simply because something new and shiny comes along and
Should I limit future breeding slots to get them done faster?- It depends entirely on you. You should limit them if you feel overwhelmed but there's no need to limit as long as you can manage.
Should I make blotters (breeding items) that can be bought and stored?- No, it'll just be another thing to keep track of and complicate matters
Should I hire staff to help me color?- It's up to you. I personally prefer when an adoptable is run by only one person but if you think you need the help, then get it :)
Any suggestions?- nope :)
Username- IvySpring
What do you think would make this funner?- Nothing! It's been really fun so far :]
What is a good price for future spawnings (consider you get 3 eggs)?- From a newbie standpoint, I like the less expensive breeding option, just because it allows people who don't have much SG to be able to participate
Would you like to see these become an agency, once that option opens?- YESSS!
How many fish do you want before you stop collecting?- I don't think if I had the option to stop I would be able to >_<
Should I limit future breeding slots to get them done faster?- Yeah, not that I mind waiting, I just feel it would be easier on you. I know what it's like having a million crits to color at once >_<
Should I make blotters (breeding items) that can be bought and stored?- Uhm, yeah that could be fun :]
Should I hire staff to help me color?- If you feel like you need help I don't see why not, but I love your coloring style so far :]
Any suggestions?- Keep up the good work! :]
Username- SweetCaroline
What do you think would make this funner?- A special breeding season(Blind Date)Everyone who wants to join gives you the ID# or name of 1 male & 1 female from their folder which they want to participate. You place each Female behind a door(no one knows who's is where but you, After the Females are hiding everyone picks a door,(if the one they pick is already taken then they have to re-post for a different door). When all doors are picked then the girl behind the chosen door is the mate for your boy you had picked. You can charge a fee for the door or from each breeding you can give 1 egg to female owner, 1 to male owner & 1 to science. Blind dates can be fun.
What is a good price for future spawnings (consider you get 3 eggs)?- That would depend on who is getting the 3 eggs, the female owner or the male owner, who pays if all eggs are going to the same person? I think breedings are worth at least 10k if you are going to get an egg from them, but if no egg for 1 of the participants then it would seem unfair for said participant to have to pay.
Would you like to see these become an agency, once that option opens?- Definatelly!
How many fish do you want before you stop collecting?- As many as I can get without getting duplicates of the same sex.(*Eyes her sex happy gidgets*)
Should I limit future breeding slots to get them done faster?- Yes & No, You should limit them to keep them from getting to common or & less unique, Not to get them done faster, If you do them faster then we people will just be looking for the next round of breeding which would still keep you pretty busy. Wouldn't want you to get burnt out on them.
Should I make blotters (breeding items) that can be bought and stored?-
Only if it makes things run more smoothly for you. If you do this & limit how many are available then it would certainly cut back on how many you would have to do during a breeding season, but it also would make it untill some folks couldn't breed theirs as I am quite certain people with lots of sg & time to stalk the store would hored up all the blotters.
Should I hire staff to help me color?- You could hire a colrist if you are feeling to overwhelmed by your sucess, or you could take a well deserved break & we could enjoy the ones we have & await the next breeding or event with Great Anticipation. Which might make the next event even more enjoyable. Kind of like waiting on X-mas to see what you got.
Any suggestions?- Maybe limit how many frmales each person can breed per season. I mean if someone has like 10-20 females & they breed them all in one breeding season then you will definatlly become overwhelmed & problly burnt out on coloring.
@SweetCaroline: that is what I had planned on doing as a valentine's day event!

What do you think would make this funner?- just continue what you are doing :D
What is a good price for future spawnings (consider you get 3 eggs)?- maybe 10k for female blotter, 5k for male blotter?
Would you like to see these become an agency, once that option opens?- YESYESYES!!!
How many fish do you want before you stop collecting?- I don't ever want to stop collecting :)
Should I limit future breeding slots to get them done faster?- I think taking them in batches would be easier, so you could open a ton of batches, but you;d wouldn't get behind in coloring ^^
Should I make blotters (breeding items) that can be bought and stored?- That'd be nice, but I think it would be easier on you to just make us pay when we breed, so no image has to be drawn and you don't have to look in the gallery to see if we already have one or not
Should I hire staff to help me color?- That's up to you, only if you feel you need help :)
Any suggestions?- once the genetic code is cracked, we won't need hints anymore :( perhaps something else can be created so we still have something to challenge our brains with?
Username- BabyKittenCandy
What do you think would make this funner?- having a tank to display the fish in? Though might be hard given thier size
What is a good price for future spawnings (consider you get 3 eggs)?- Prices seemed fair to me :)
Would you like to see these become an agency, once that option opens?-
How many fish do you want before you stop collecting?- How long is a piece of string ^^
Should I limit future breeding slots to get them done faster?- Depends if you wish to have seasons or continual breeding available.
Should I make blotters (breeding items) that can be bought and stored?- Might be handy and may cut down on breeding work for you
Should I hire staff to help me color?- Depends if you feel you can cope/how big you wanna make your workload
Any suggestions?- Not at this time
Username- sera
What do you think would make this funner?- Maybe other outlines?
What is a good price for future spawnings (consider you get 3 eggs)?- i like the 5-7k range. . .
Would you like to see these become an agency, once that option opens?- Yeppers!
How many fish do you want before you stop collecting?- Oh, gads. Hundreds? xD;;;;
Should I limit future breeding slots to get them done faster?- Hrms. . . that's a personal call; i like there being so many available for people, but it may be easier for your sanity.
Should I make blotters (breeding items) that can be bought and stored?- i'm on the fence; i prefer to not have required items, but for this setting, breeding items are useful. Also,it would allow people to trade said breeding items, which would be nice.
Should I hire staff to help me color?- Ooh, that'd be fun. ^^ i vote yes. lol
Any suggestions?- Keep on, keeping on! ^^ Love the fishes!
What is the end date for the new survey?
I am currently busy coloring customs and I'd like to finish those first.
Added a deadline, is 3 days enough time for you?
Yes of course xD
Although I may very well need 3 days for coloring, I'm sure I can find some time to fill this out ^^
(I need to color about 10 customs and 50 Orlaya O.o)
Username- SplitX
What do you think would make this funner?- Moar eggs for Splitty? -innocent smile-
What is a good price for future spawnings (consider you get 3 eggs)?- I have NO idea >_>
Would you like to see these become an agency, once that option opens?- YES
How many fish do you want before you stop collecting?- ... A billion?
Should I limit future breeding slots to get them done faster?- I think you should open them in waves, but not limit the number, really. ^___^ Just say 'STOP' or something to stop incoming requests, then 'GO' again, so that way, once you're done with the first ones, the secon ones are ready, and you can just edit the pickups into a pickups post. :3
Should I make blotters (breeding items) that can be bought and stored?- Oh yes, I believe so. n___n
Should I hire staff to help me color?- Yes! -raises hand-
Any suggestions?- -waves hand around- I'd love to help! Oh, I mean uhm, no... xD These are wonderfully done. :3
Username- Kadana Sorano
What do you think would make this funner?- Something to do with the fishes perhaps. Maybe some type of competition, but not the reguler kinds the other adopts allready have. Not sure what fish could compete in but yea..
What is a good price for future spawnings (consider you get 3 eggs)?- guh I hate these questions *shakes finger at you* Because well, I suck at pricing heh I of course like it cheap. But they are worth more. (considering I just spent 120k for an egg..) lol But.. there is the consideration of keeping things cheap enough newcomers and less fortunate can still participate as well. I will say, you should set the male blotter at half the price of the females blotter. (So if you keep the females at 5k as it is now, make the males at 2,500. This way all eggs cost the same. As it is, those with a female are paying more per egg then those with males are.
Would you like to see these become an agency, once that option opens?- yes please!
How many fish do you want before you stop collecting?- All of them!
Should I limit future breeding slots to get them done faster?- If you limit them, do it to save your sanity, not to make them go faster. I don't think anyone will mind the wait much, if it means we get to breed more. but I don't want to see you're nerves shot to hell either *hugs*
Should I make blotters (breeding items) that can be bought and stored?- Ohh yes please! *hoarde hoarde hoarde!*
Should I hire staff to help me color?- If you need the help, then by all means yes. BUT.. if you are OK with no help, then I'd much prefer that you didn't with these.
Any suggestions?- Down the road in the distant future some time, maybe consider the possibility of new breeds. Some of the chemical sludge that spilled maybe leaked out into the sewer, and maybe a pipe had a crack in it, leaking the gunk out into nature or such, a small lake or stream maybe, where you can find a new breed. *imagines you getting attacked for a new round of "starter frenzy" if you do this though*
Username- Ravvana
What do you think would make this funner?- Maybe you could do shorter spwanings of fewer eggs, so we'll get our adults sooner?
What is a good price for future spawnings (consider you get 3 eggs)?- 30k total (20k female, 10k male)
Would you like to see these become an agency, once that option opens?- That would be nice, but I don't feel super strongly either way.
How many fish do you want before you stop collecting?- A ton! :) At least twenty would be lovely, but I doubt I'll ever decide to just stop once I hit a set number.
Should I limit future breeding slots to get them done faster?- Yes, please, but not too limited. Maybe 1 or 2 breedings per person? Or 20 slots total?
Should I make blotters (breeding items) that can be bought and stored?- No, that sounds more confusing than it needs to be. Simple is good!
Should I hire staff to help me color?- If you want, but I do like your coloring. The main benefit of this would be speed.
Any suggestions?- Keep up the good work! ;)
Username-Rosewood
What do you think would make this funner?-Some trivia games on fish, or auctions.
What is a good price for future spawnings (consider you get 3 eggs)?-Around maybe 10k, considering that you would have to color all of them your self. XD
Would you like to see these become an agency, once that option opens?-Yes, I would love that.:)
How many fish do you want before you stop collecting?-I have no limit, unless I get close to 500 fish, but even then, I might still collect them. :)
Should I limit future breeding slots to get them done faster?-No, part of the atraction is the oppertunity to breed more.
Should I make blotters (breeding items) that can be bought and stored?-Yes
Should I hire staff to help me color?-No,I like your coloring and wan to keep it.
Any suggestions?-Not really.

Oh... Did I do something wrong? :x
Edit: I definitely sent mine in but... I wasn't entered.
Ack sorry! Ran random.org again with you in the list to see what would happen. It put you at 14/16. It still put Ravvana at #2.
Okay. ^__^ Tee-hee. Thanks. =D I was just scared that I'd done something wrong. >_> I like my eggies. >:3
Will there be another question added for me though? xDDD
Look close, you are on the survey part 2. :)
AWWW I see mine! x333 -feels special-
Do you mean something like this, BabyKittenCandy?
(http://genepool.freehostia.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=708&g2_serialNumber=1)
oohhh that's cute :O
Now I want one for my fishies XD
That looks amazing! :D
Nice tank, would look great filled with all the colorfull fish.
ooohh so cool! :O
Ooooh tank! *grabby hands*
-sneezes all over tank-
... ... -slowly sneaks away with it- >_>;
Username- Silvanon
What do you think would make this funner?- I'm having a lot of fun with it already, but I may eventually wish you'd add another fish species with all new genetics for me to crack *lol*
What is a good price for future spawnings (consider you get 3 eggs)?- 10K - 20K?
Would you like to see these become an agency, once that option opens?- I think you've got a shot at it. :)
How many fish do you want before you stop collecting?- I'll contiune collecting as long as I can think up a breeding goal to pursue. I've got a few in mind already.
Should I limit future breeding slots to get them done faster?- I think you'll have to include some sort of limiter eventually. Even a small community can overwhelm an artist if it's a free-for-all. Whether you do that with breeding items, slots, or high prices, any would work really. I'm not sure what my preference would be. Maybe some of each? Low price slots, high price anytime breedings, perhaps?
Should I make blotters (breeding items) that can be bought and stored?- If you choose to make that the way to limit breedings, sure. If not then I'd say no, since that'd add the inventory-keeping workload to your to-do list.
Should I hire staff to help me color?- How much drama can you handle? How good are you at managing people? A good team can really move things along, but even the best teams have problems and dramas, and turn-over.
Any suggestions?- Give me more fish? *lol* Not really, beyond the above.
Oooo!!! Yesh! That tank is fab! *wants*
What would you all think of me adding a canine to the mix later down the road? By the same artist. We could assume that some of the goop washed into a stream and was ingested by them.
I'll dig up images later. 2 female poses, 2 male, 1 pup, all with several mutation options.
Would they be like... canine-y feesh? o_O
That would be great. Can't wait to see them.
That could be interesting, but definitely farther down the road. Right now we just need more fishes X3
(also, just confirming if you got my PM? Cause if you did, I'm gonna post my last breeding form in the spawning thread XD)
Shoos Qing Wei into your personal pool
This breeding will be free for you, as you paid SplitX an extra dollar more then I had asked.
Right now, the only way I can get more fish lines is to try them myself, or hire a different artist. Javen is not currently available to commission more from. But, the canines are also her lines, I commissioned mid last year. They are fully canine, not caninefeesh.
Daawww, that's sweet of you X3~<3<3 (I hope you get a lovely CBD!! 83)

Can anyone beat 15 correct guesses in the event on the first page before the time expires to try? I really don't wish to extend it, because who I am will be revealed, and I want to say!
I can't. XD I don't think I could get more than 2 right. >___>; And those include my 2 answers. XD
I dont think i can beat 15
I wanna try before time expires =o
>___> Are we allowed to put the options through random.org and see how many we can try to get right? X333
I will try, but most likely will not beat 15 XD
and I forgot my answers lol
You can guess options any way you wish SplitX! You can ask a fortune cookie, attempt a mathmatic probability formula, or just guess.
You forgot your own answer? WoWW, a memory like mine.
I'll try a mathematic fortune cookie then. >____>;
I know a fair bit about the people here, dunno if I can get to 15, but who knows xD
I should have at least 5 right and I seem to be good at guessing =3
I'm very looking forward to Gene Pool being revealed X3
Cause I have absolutely no idea who it is 8D;; /can't even hazzard a guess
I dunno about doggies, until seeing the lines. I don;t want to say Yeah! I'm interested! And then for somereason the lines don't "catch" me and turn me into a liar.
So.. I'd be curious to see them. That much I can honestly say.
I would still love more fish species sometime in the future however, as it is the fishy/fishytycoonesqueness that atractted me so pasionetly to them in the first place. And being a differant species, I wouldnt mind/think it would matter much, if they were by a differant artist.
But, thats my opinions, is your adopty sweety. And I cant se emyself ever falling out of love with gene fishes, even if you make a million other non fish lines and it turns out I hate them all (which I doubt wil happen, I'm just syaing lol)
I think on canine lines - I'm not sure how much I'll love the lines themselves until I see them, but I would definitely be interested in any genetic cracking stuffs regardless of how well I like the art (I'm just a geek like that *lol*).
And, I'm with Kadana in that I think you could get away with a different species of fish being by a different artist. Although I do think any further lines ought to show some sort of effort to conform to the current style of lines. That is to say, I don't think cutsie chibi would mix well, and probably line width & whatnot ought to try to be the same.
I am still wondering about Gene Pool's true identity X3~<3

Is that for the first part or the second part?
first part egg was already announced and moved to owner folder. 2nd part was a tie, announced above answers list. the one i just posted was from the survey- the one with things like "what would make this funner, what price should i charge", ect.
Just ignore me I am apparently retarded today ;)
Wow, this was totally awesome! And i'm super surprised that so many people thought i live in Netherlands. hehe Congrats to the winners. Again, this was a hilarious and awesome event. ^^
Speaking of sera... a couple of chocolatey yum eggs just in time for Valentine's!

oh pretty pretty.
haha, it was interesting reading the survey XD
Can't wait for more egg games ^o^
Haha, no one guessed about me and my massive anime collection. >:3
Hmm, on the front page it says everyone turned in their CYO fish, but I haven't finished mine yet. Was there a deadline they had to be in by that I missed, or did you not notice I hadn't posted mine yet..? :\
I posted those in the wrong thread. Ugh!
Ryuu, somehow I missed you posting for a slot and nobody poked me :( According to the re-count, YLO came 1 too late, but I miscounted and she got hers already.
Ugh! I dont know what to do! We already made 100 starters. I can give you the starter in my folder?
(http://genepool.freehostia.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=221&g2_serialNumber=5)
Ah... well that's okay, never mind my participation in this event then. Thanks anyway, but I was looking forward to a fish designed by my own hand.
You know what? I can make Lilly go away, and use that ID number for your CYO. I need to put back up the lines for you- did you want male or female, .png or .bmp?
Aww, thank you, indigo. That really means a lot to me. :) I will use the male .png. I am sorry for taking so long, been working on a lot of customs I owe other peoples. I will get it done by tomorrow at the latest.

It wasnt you taking too long, it was me completely missing your post.
*snuggles Lookky fish* no taking mine! =o xD
The getting to know you thing was fun, I knew I could get at least 10 right. =3
@Ryuu: I did think of you as the one having the massive anime collection, but I saw someone else post somewhere that they were addicted to anime so I think I changed it >.<
Wow! I never expected I would get so many right!
Gz all :)
Hehe, it is funny to see what people thought might be me. And, wow! Yay! Horray! I won such a pretty egg! Thank you!

guesses- IvyX2, ScullistoX2, Splitty, PM
Love dogs, scared of horses
Quote29- Who plans on legally changing thier name?
guesses- PM, Ivy, SplitX, red
This is kinda correct for me, as I already use my hubby's last name (unless I have to use my last name) but it is not quite mine yet
and just to end my letting people know more about me, my cat's names are Behl and Lily
ETA: yes used to hate pink, now I can tolerate it, but love blue, every shade of blue
PM, im the same, i never wear make up unless its a special occasion ^^
And I actually already legally changed my name, and not via my marriage :)
On the Tattoo note, I plan on another but im having to be careful what i want as this one will hopefully be on my wrist, though at some point, i would like to get one on my back to link the few i have there (one on my right shoulder and one on my lower back on the left)
My 5th tatto will be coming up here shortly....it can be addicting, but after my gypsy vanner tattoo, I let the ink settle for a bit...it hurt and it was a long chair sitting.
I only have two tattoo's so far, one on my shoulder blade and one on my wrist. I have to get the one on my shoulder blade fixed though, it was done with too thin of a needle so it has faded quickly
wow o.o interesting answers lol XD

24- Whos favorite color is "Anything that's shiney"?
guesses- Scullisto, red, Goddesss, SplitX, Garney, Ryuu correct- Silv
Whoever guessed that knows me pretty well. XD My friends have all nicknamed me "Shiny" because I get distracted by random pretty things and wander off away from the group when we're hanging out.

32- Who snuck outside at age 13 to strip naked and pee in a neighbors pool?
guesses- Silv, Dunkel, Goddesss, Ryuu, SweetCaroline correct- kadana
WHY would someone think I would do this!?!? XD
@Ryuu: only wrong guesses were listed among guesses, then the correct answer was put next to it. Otherwise no one would've had a question right. I actually did know your cat's name so I got that one right :D
Oh! Haha. I missed her saying that, I see it now. ^^;;
You are good at knowing people, YLO! :D
Hey red, people weren't saying you were boring lol. Look, Garney got 3 guesses on that one. Someone explained it as "that seems like a (smartypants) thing to say, and Garney is a (smartypants)" ok I put in my own word there but you get the idea :)
XD HAHAHA *wonders what Garney would put there instead of 'smartypants'...*
lol though actually I am quite boring XD
I know your cat's name too Ryuu, I got that one right

The sad thing is that one might be true.>< I don't count my Dvds. I know I have 235 Mangas.
@PM, Video game names are WIN! x3 If we have another boy, i want to name him Sephiroth, but i think i'll have to fight his dad about it. xD;;;
Someday i should count my manga and anime. xD;;;; As is, i need to downsize my books. T__T;;;
Quote from: Gene Pool on February 08, 2010, 12:54:42 AM7- Who has 6 tattoos?
guesses- Dunkel, Splitty, Ravv, Garney, Scullisto correct- BKC
Yes, except for the crippling fear of needles that has kept me from even getting my ears pierced, that is totally me ;) XD
XD Ravv im the same way with needles but i find when it comes to having being stuck by a needle in the hospital and a needle that was piercings my whatever i was getting pierced at that time (ive had various face.ears & belly button piercings) it wasnt nearly as bad when you wanting to have it done and you have a awesome result afterwards. I also have two tattoos and cant wait to get more :D (though i must say after my stupid teen phase i have a end results of no piercings other then my ear lobes)
OK if I understand this right i get to pick an egg form the donated eggs folder? If so, I'd like to have #170 please. I figure, you can never go wrong with grey (white?) and black. And I appologize for not choosing sooner. I'd planned to borrow moms comp to view the eggs today, but ended up in bed with a migraine all day.. and now she's back in bed so.. well, atleast this monitor doesn't screw black and white shades up like it does other colors lol
there's a story behind the pool incident. Those particular neighbors were really pains in the rear, and didn't treat the kids on our street so well. Their kids would invite friends over, to play in the pool and cool off, and the parents would flip. Wouldn't let anyone in, claimed we'd pee in it it's not like it was a huge underground pool, this was one of those ones you buy at walmart and set up on top your lawn. And it's not even like I personally wanted in the pool over much, having a fear of water and all.. but I couldn't stand them and their constant holier then thou attitude. One of the kids on the street was really over heated, and wanted to just stand next to the pool and run his hands through the water, try and cool off. They wouldn't even allow him to do that.
Well, their initial excuse was a worry of pee in the water, so it seemed like a suitable method of revenge at the time. I almost didn't go through with it, I sat beside the pool for I don't know how long, unable to force myself in, and too stubborn to leave. Finally, when crawling back out of the pool, I glanced up at the house.. saw the man looking out at me. Knowing he knew what I'd just done, somehow made it all worth the effort of forcing myself in.
yes yes, Kadana isa wierdo -.-
:O all the science eggus are so shiny!
I like 142, and 169, and 130, and 139, and 235 xD

*preps her other contest entries*
Also, 35k on the auction egg. ^^
Yes those work lol.
There are other contests on the front page in the first couple posts. All contests are open!
for pick a number, just post a number between 1-50 to try to guess my number. if nobody gets it 10 minutes after your first guess, you may post another number. NO editing, if your number was already picked you can guess again, as long as it was within 2 minutes of your posted guess (so you actually have to look!)

Wow! Thanks
And I would of posted if it were my own donated egg to. Was fun.
Congratz.
teehee, true XD I stil woulda gone for it even if I'd known XD
Take good care of it for me ^o^
Hope it was ok for me to use the fish images for the valentine. I should of asked first.

I'll take real good care of it. It is a very pretty egg.
That's perfectly fine :) As long as the images are for secundi use, you can use them for contests, presentation collages, ect. If it goes into actual editing (like editing colors or the lines) I require that you get permission first. If its just combining them, resizing them, or giving them backgrounds and such, then its fine, again- as long as they dont leave secundi for any reason.
edit- oh, and if you get the urge for fan art, as in 100% by you inspired by gene pool fish, thats fine too! just credit us for inspiration if you post them somewhere else like deviantart or whatever.
Yes, forgot to mention, as I thought most people knew >>
Cattery is Lectral, most of the time... Garney has occasionally popped in, just for fun, but she is very busy with other stuff lately, so for now, it is just me :D

Thanks, I wouldn't think of taking them off of Secundi. One day I will learn to draw my own images with gimp.
I got a new fish while we all picked numbers! Isn't she Pretty?

Hehe, we have 2 threads (thank goodness, considering how busy each is!) One for eventy stuff, and the other for eggs arriving and hatching. I posted a ninja-hatch in the other thread. Thats where your orange and blue came from.

Sorry, will post in the other thread next time for showing off.
Oh no go ahead and show off anywhere you want! Was just pointing it out in case you didn't know where she came from :)
She's pretty SweetCaroline, reminds me of a sunset over water.
Thanks Silvanon. Can't hardly wait to see all the other ones when they hatch.
There were 4 items in your list. Here they are in random order:

Donated by Goddesss
This one is gonna be a good one.. the person who gives the best name for it will win it.. the catch- you dont know its gender! So, either make a unisex name, or give 1 name for each gender. Roommates will help me judge the name, and it will be based on the grown version :)
Remember the colors on the egg are somewhere on the adult!
Hee! ^^ Thankies! i'm excited about my new egg. =3
Hrms, name, name, name. . .
Constantine. x3 i use it as unisex name. *coughs and trots off to figure out how to d/l this thing for her friend*
*cheers for the sera*
Hrms . . . This is a little tough D8;
After narrowing it down, I'm going to submit:
Pastelis
60k for the auction.
=D Pretty little eggy.
If a male Name: Soren
If a female Name: Blue Moon
Lets see
If boy:Cross Hatch (because of the cross hatch pattern)
If girl:Fairelyte (idk i love the name and the eggu seems to sport light colors)
Names:
Female: Amphitrite
Male: Poseidon
Amphitrite -Greek myth name of the sea goddess, Nereid and Oceanid who became the consort of Poseidon.
Or so says internets anyways lol
wow I missed so much o.o
Congrats to new eggu owners!! :D
Name:
Male: Sol
Female: Sola
eggu reminds me of a sunset, with the pretty orange and pink and blue hues, but instead of using Sunset, going with a more unique name :)
Hmm, I was just looking at Auren my CYO and I noticed he doesn't seem to have the shading template on him. Did you forget it or is it just that his light colors don't make it show up? The other CYO's seem to have it.
65k for the auction :D
The only ones I didnt put shading template on were the glass, and that was by request. It's possible it didn't save correctly and I didn't notice. Ill go try again and see if it changes.
eta- re-applied the shading layer over it again, and there isnt really a change, even with double shading. The placement of the shading and highlights just dont pop on yours. Also, the highlights are set to pick up the colors beneath them subtly, so a "busy" colored fish wont really get the highlight shine.
70k for the auction :)
Name: Desert Sky
Name: Shoreline
Oh, forgot to put end time on name game- Feb 16th at 03:00!
Name: Uzoma (unisex name meaning-good way)

ha! thats what I get for not refreshing lol
I almost typed 300, but decided someone else may try that first XD
darn about 15k short XD
*pokes auction egg* I had the wrong eggy in there!
it "has" 3 mutations, but tail covers one. Your choice solistia, stick with 157, or trade it for 202 or 224
(using timer on the post- solistia wins by 10 seconds lol)
So, bids on the minute don't count? Different...
Oh really? Which egg was supposed to be in there? XD
(I've actually been eyeing that giant X egg since I first saw it in the donated folder X3 so I'd love to keep #157 ^o^ )
Quote from: Lectral on February 16, 2010, 04:03:58 PM
So, bids on the minute don't count? Different...
Well, if you think about it, if it (for example) ended at 1:00, and you could draw a line at 1, it is ended. It is not at the end of the 1:00 minute, but it ends the moment 1:00 happens.
Imagine it like in length. If there is a race, and a line drawn, the race is up to the line but not after.
Silv's fault for making the timer show seconds lol, so anything after the actual 04:00:00 would be after the deadline.
er.. 16:00:00 by clock. mine's set to local time, I need to change that!
Lectral, if you want, I could offer you 173, the egg which was intended to be in there, for 400K?
(http://genepool.freehostia.com/gallery2/main.php?g2_view=core.DownloadItem&g2_itemId=696&g2_serialNumber=2)
Oooo, pretty egg >.> I think i may have to take you up on that, if you don't have other plans for it
I would say to prevent confusion in the future, please add seconds to the end time of auctions, or specifically state that it ends before the clock turns over - I am used to PI auctions where any bid with the correct minute counts, and many other people will be as well

I can't remember PI ever having it that way. But I always ended auctions at th etick, so no one could post after the tick :/
Haha. Nevermind >.<
(I find it amusing that we're taking each other's donated eggs Lectral XD)
Yeah, that's why I usually put my auctions ending the second before the hour turnover for my timed events, just so there's no confusion XD
Pi doesnt show seconds iirc, so there's no way to tell. Anyone bidding in the last minute counts.
I will be sure to say in the future 16:00:00
For the name game, it has been determined that Poseidon is the hands down winner with 3 votes. My smartypants roommate wanted "Poseidon Sky" but I told him he's not allowed to mix names to make his own lol.
LOL!!!
My betta, that I colored my CYO fishie after, his name is Poseidon XD
Nope, PI doesn't show seconds, and I know not everyone uses the same method for auctions there, but the "default" they ended up using was any post in the last minute - if you wanted to do it otherwise, you had to be sure to post it ahead of time, so everyone knew for sure.
I will send the SG right away :D
*pokes gallery* Im wondering if its a bandwidth limit or something that makes it give me error 500 just when I need it most.
Going to update the events posts on the front page after this so every post has something active instead of finished ones.
Then.. going to start our mutation naming thread, where everyone who owns a mutation fish of the lowest ID for that mutation gets to name it. Funny thing is, some were traded off, and I did say up front that whoever owns it *when it hatches* is the one who gets to name it. Some of you are gonna be overwealmed with naming duty :)
Congrats to auction winner(s), and to name winner. wait.. Poseidon.. that was me wasn't it? O.O *runs to double check*
Congrats to all the winners! :D
I shall be stalking to see what hatches~
lol Kadana you don't remember XD
twas me twas me! *fist pumps and dance around* hehehee!
Hmm I dont know if I should adress the issue here or make its own thread...
With the CBD customs for fish for USD 3 way trades, some people have PM'd me wich concerns. I'm not really sure what I should do at this point.
For the record, I'm not taking back any of the fish, even if i never see my CBD's. So, there's no reason to do chargebacks, you're still getting your part of the deal. If SplitX for some reason can't come back and do the customs we were promised, I'm considering asking Fae on PI if she will honor them.
Either way, your fish aren't going anywhere.
You will get your CBD's. I'm keeping in contact with Faerain to make sure that happens. Either SplitX will come back and give people what's due, or else Fae and I will take care of it, and SplitX will face serious consequences. We're giving SplitX a month.
It has been announced on PI that splitty is not coming back anytime soon and she and her parents decided to take her internet away. =[
Part of me really feels for her, part of me is extremely unhappy because of the unfinished bussines she had promised to take care of before leaving.
it's been announced on PI?

Does anyone have an un-grown egg, if you refresh your owners page? I think I got them all, just making sure.
Oh, Im locking the spawning thread, since all have been done. You can still name them here, show them off here, ect. Need room for a mutation thread :)
red- you can take the pic if you wish, must be a photo if you do. its the image with the most things off the list in it. google is fine. if its google, it doesnt have to be a photo, thats only if you do your own. that way you cant cheat and go draw a pic with everything in it lol.
all mine are fishy images I think.. well, they arent big and round any more anyway lol *kicks monitor*

chaise or chase?
If collages of google pictures counts:

#5 for SweetCaroline
#16 for Rosewood
#20 for Riverwind
Door 17 for me
1 for silv
6 for yourlove only
14 for Lectral
14 for Silvanon
That should have been 4 for Silvanon
1 for me!
10 for Goddesss
13 for PonyMama
Rather, 11 for Silvanon
19? maybe? for silvanon - at some point, I will get a number that hasn't been taken already >.<
(I think only 8, 9, and 18 are left now o_o wow that went fast XD)
solista i got 1 for silv love.
lol we all love the gene pool :D
bwahaha, right....then number 18 for me XD
9 please?
I believe 9 was taken, actually
I already claimed 9 for YLO ^^'
8 for Ku-chan if it's still open.
Oh, kasatsu. Sorry. xD;
(http://www.priceanimal.com/r0300023.jpg)
okie...aaand they are gone
would you guys be horribly upset if i made it were each person can only get 1 door, so some that are getting left out can get in? there is a prize with every door!
I hadn't realized Silv had gotten one already, or I would have chosen someone else for the gift XD
I don't mind if you give that slot to Scullisto, if you like
I wouldn't mind ^^ (though I only got one door so I guess my opinion doesn't really count lol)
Tis fine :D
ok, cuz right now, Kasatsu, ylo, and silv have 2 doors each. poor scullisto missed out by seconds.
that means 2 more doors open, unless anyone objects
Tis fine love :D id be fine with giving my two doors up i gifted to those who havnt got one!
so, lectal and sera technically have an open "gift" to offer if they wish, or anyone who hasnt already posted 2 gifts (or 1 for themself). 8 and 19 are open still.
Could I give 19 to Ryuukokoro then?
You can give the door I gifted to Riverwind to someone who didn't get one as she already has one.
i'll give #8 to Ryuu, then. ^^
she does :)
20 is open as well, i missed that double
lol sera, 19 just was gifted to ryuu
xD Slow sera is slow! *goes to eyeball the list again*
sera you could look in the owners folder for people to gift to :) tis what I should have done lol
Oh my gosh..I hope I didnt start a tangled thread..I just checked back..The feesh move so fast here!
#8 to Taruia, then! Because she cut open her finger. : (
Door 20 is still open.. anyone who hasnt gifted yet have a friend who hasnt been gifted yet? anyone coming in late who hasnt claimed for themself?
well the door I snagged for YLO was given to scullisto...does that count? XD
umm let see are my doors still going to ylo and silv?
Oh, we could give away two doors, right? Could i gift #20 to Ravvana?
o.o I think mostly everyone here can read minds
*woogledy fingers at red's mind* whhoooooooo--!!
*noms sera's fingers*
ok, that fills the doors
*puts people into a giant dice cup and shakes them around, then dumps them onto a mat with prizes listed*
you get the prize you fell on!
(actually, going to run to random.org now, but the other way is funner!)
!!! Red spit! D8
hehehe
I've allready gifted mine.. but BKC had to go to bed, so she doesnt have one I think (tho am not sure if she is following gene pool)
Edit: nvm, I read too slow lol
red spit is magical and lovely~ xD
*attempts to fall on multiple prizes* lol would be an interesting way to determine prizes
i always miss events <.<
*gets shook up in dice cup*
@.@

We'll be a fish-y pile? D8 That sounds uncomfortable. *sprays everyone with the magical red spit* xD;
oh speaking of feesh, I caught a sheephead (or is it sheepshead?) yesterday :DDDDD
and congrats everyone!! *pets all the eggus* so purty~
*dodges spit*
Ick..
Any who :D will you be posting the eggus or is there a place to find them love?
eggs are in the process of being moved from science folder into owners folders, then will immediatly hatch once they get settled in.

:O the magical spit was dodged! XD
Hummi all feesh are in teh owners folder :)
your's is this one:

*hugs Kadana for her spotted feesh*...Thank you thank you thank you :)
Ahh lovely i think i found my eggu. Is it the little brown one with green swirlys? it reminds me of the army :D tis good! The hubs is army!
Edit:Spit is ewwy. i have a 6month old im a pro spit dodger.
I can haz aquarium for all my lovely fishies? ;o;~<3 /more excited about that than the eggs
Once I grow these eggie, Ill explain aquariums.
First bit of info, yes, they are tradable, as long as there are no fishies in them.
They will be used for competitions.
Once a fish is put inside, that fish is no longer tradable until removed.
Aquariums are customizable.
Each aquarium can hold up to 7 fish.
After the free initial setup, there will be a fee for changing aquariums around. Customization cannot be changed once it's in place, other then wallpaper.
You can create your own wallpaper.
I *think* an aquarium will be flat-sold at 100K, in limited quantities. Internal debate going on now.
More details to come.
>.> I has a pearl
maybe is eggie pretending to be pearl? or pearl pretending to be egg? can't wait to see what comes out of the pearl egg!
>.> and sorry for all the Cattery postings - I am waiting for people to finish claiming their kitties XD
-any kitties left can now live with me..i will adore them XD-
Though i must admit i cant wait to see what comes outta me egg..i honestly have no idea how to read its little code thingy.
hunni you can check out the breeding thread for the gene pool to see hwo to read the code :)
where would i find that at XD is it the first spawing take 2 one?
it's in the breeding forum ^^
edit: here :)

mru? *huggles* your welcomes :)
oh lord lol i think ill just see what it is when it grows XD
lol. sorry, Ill go alt to indigowulf and get my kitty, so you arent stuck on cattery for my sake! BRB!
all fishies hatched
that works too lol
whee mine's so pretty! :D
247 - Sunspots
please and thank you~
(and thanks for breeding such a pretty eggu, sera!)
There, bid on my kitty.
Also, genetic hints tracker thread will always be linked in my display, so even if it's burried with time, you can find it there :)
Ok, time to write up the details on aquariums for all to see. *typedy type*
Oh, there are still several left to be picked up, so it's not you!
I have another handsome boy - all white!
208 - Tafalo
*hugs Lectral* the kids won't be able to pick theirs up now until tomorrow (if they didn't allready). Conroy's comp time for the day is all used up, and Rosewood's gone to bed allready.
That's fine - I was waiting to see if anyone else would get theirs, but I also have other stuff to do, so I came back - I'll check again later and accept bids before I go to bed
I had to name my pretty new fish! Kadana - it says this one was donated by you, do you know who his parents are, so I can take a peek? #208, if that helps?
lol ummm not off hand *doesnt even know what the egg looks like* roflmbo but I can go try and find the info. I know indigo posted the eggs in order of bredings for mine, so every post of 2 eggs is a breeding.. hrrr.. *goes to look*
It's an all white fishie ... with green eyes XD
I was looking at your fishies - maybe the same breeding as 206 and 207?
Basics
Aquariums- base value, 100K, unlimited availablility
Aquarium water filter- base value, 10K, unlimited availability- +1 quality
Aquarium Thermometer-- base value, 10K, unlimited availability +1 science
Aquarium gravel- base value, 10K, unlimited availability- +1 beauty

Aquarium custom or self designed wallpapers- base value, 250K, very limited availability (currently available- 0)
other items may come available in the future.
Contesting with Aquariums-
An aquarium must have at least 1 fish to participate in a competition. There are 3 types of competitions. The first 2, quality and science, are randomly determined. The 3rd, beauty, has both random and human elements to the judging. I have people who don't play here on secundi that are judges, assisting random.org in determining winners. Most of the items are beauty items, and do not effect the other 2 contests.
I havent decided what a fair price for entry fee should be, but prize moneys come from entry fees. Openions?
Purchasing is now open. Please post the following form, adding items as needed. SG goes to this account.

Cost:
item 2:

total:
*needs an aquarium*
purchasing is open. You can buy the items alone, and put things together (and color them) at a later date if you wish. There is a 1 time free set up for all aquariums, any changes after that will have a fee (because I have to re-do things!)
Heehee, he is a handsome boy Lectral :3
So by "base value" does that mean it's possible for them to be more expensive?
(also, how many aquariums are we allowed to own at once? owo)

I was looking at your fishies - maybe the same breeding as 206 and 207?
Yes, it was the same breeding. I just had to search the other thread to find my breeding request back, so I could make note of parents lol
#208 is from parent fishes #'s 041 & 098
Base value means, if the item is available for sale from me at any given time, that is what I will charge. However, as certain things become unavailable (particularly limited items) other players who own them may charge much more.
LOL I just realized, i gave everyone who got an aquarium a free "wallpaper 1". Im not going to take it away after I already gave it, so bonus for you!

Hey indigo can I put a suggestion in the ideas box? owo
I think it'd be nice if all the fishies' numbers were added to their keywords...that way they can be searched even after they're named :3 (I like to keep track of where my fishies' offspring go...but it's hard after they're named XD)
Perhaps even a parent### x parent### to see where they've come from, so if people are crazy like me, they can keep track of geneology? XD
5 basic wallpapers to choose from now. check the --aquarium folder :)
Solistia- I can do that. It will take me probly 2 days. Are people ok with things getting put on hold for 2 days while I do this?
Ill do Jelly breedings that have been posted first, then just do this. There would be no naming or trading during this time. People let me know if you want me to do this.
oh wow =D it'd be awesome if you could X3
I'm certainly all for it XD I dunno about other people though OTL (fortunately almost all the eggs are homed/almost homed and grown? :3)
oh I'd love that! :D
well, you allready know my opinion on it lol it would certainly help. But.. I'll prolly still want my fishes named with their id numbers in their names.
ok, gonna be busy as snot the next few days then.
ack! I just realized- the first few spawnings, I didnt write down my ID's and those were deleted with the thread! So, some babies have unknown parents!
Anything between 101 and 152 have missing parent ID's
I believe my Rebel's parents are Sludge and ravv's brown starter feeshie :) and her 2 brown feesh were the other 2 from that spawning (I think.....)
I have nine of those XD
137-139 were Roshan x Sola
140-142 were Roshan x 005
143-145 were Roshan x Juaxi
104, 105 and 106 were Lectral's Sushi x PonyMama's 009 - I set up that breeding
From when I was comparing genes, I also have written down that 107, 108 & 109 were from 12 x Ty-Ku
the first breeding results on the first page on the take 2 thread shows ids 113 and 114, so I think you're only missing those after :)
red, Im missing the post saying who the parents were :(
got everything from 134 on.
Missing:
101-103
110-112
(http://chicagowildernessmag.org/issues/summer2008/images/frog_eggs.jpg)
am pretty sure #111's momma fish is Allure-004 .. as she is the only fishy i had to breed at the time. Can't remember who I borrowed form to breed her with though.. someone purple I;m guessing? lol or well, not green atleast..shall have to ask families tomorrow and see
113-115 are 024 x 022
116-118 are Quincey x 008
119-121 are 034 x 010(Miss Feesh)
122-124 are Toxic Waste x 003(Radiant)
125-127 are 013 x 056
128-130 are 024 x 022
Those are the ones I could get from the spawning thread
EDIT: oh, looks like you got all that already, since you edited your post XD
thanks solistia :) you were faster then me
down to 2 breedings missing parents.
101-103
110-112 (allure x ?)
yeah realized that in the shower D:
though I'm pretty sure 101-103 is Sludge x Fosca
yay! down to 1/2 a breeding missing. Now I have no excuses *glares*
110 was a donated eggu from Kadana and SweetCaroline, though that doesn't help a lot cause Kadana has a boatload of feesh lol
She didnt when the breeding took place. So, odds are really good it was 004 X SweetCarolines starter. will wait for her to verify.
Actually, Im glad you guys wanted me to do this now. It will be one less thing I need to figure out if/when we get to make gene pool into an agency!
eee I hope it does become an agency <3
Ugh. Silv found some I miscolored. That's what I get for trying to get the last ... 36 eggs done at once.
I think Im going to do something that is found in nature with mutations. Randomness. If you find something i miscolored, It's your choice ask me to fix it (recolor it) or to edit the genetic code to match the colors.
Now, this has to be an actual oops, not a "this purple looks more red then blue on my moniter, make the code say red" lol.
110-112 (allure x Quincey)
That was his first breeding. He also bred with 008 & 1 other fish.
yay! all parents acounted for. thanks everyone!
my 118 has a missing number in her genetic code ^^'
011101^0110^1101100
0121110^11121^1022100
high bid on auction: red_uni with 150k
ill get that fixed red!

current progress: spixy's school
Wow, that's some awesome progress indigo! =D /amazed
and done.. and *gasp* found a donated science egg that never made it to the science folder! which means I need to recalculate its genetics ugh!
(see 244 in eggs folder)
WOW
one night, and you thought it'd take you two days XD
I am in shock and awe 8D (and yay for finding a missing egg? XD)

I have no clue what, if any, of mine aren't done properly, don;t know how to check, and colors on this comp suck so it would be difficult anyway rofl So any of mine that are "off" are welcome to stay that way, as I don;t know how much, if any, I will bother with genetics anyway. I bred for "pretty" this time round, and had awesome results, I see no reason I should change *snugs* also, I love my fishes, and not sure I'd want them "fixed" lol
I has too many friends on here *frets and chews hair trying to decide who to nominate*
I know! I make a list, stuff it through random.org and see who "wins" lol
I nominate Lectral
