People on the waiting/perma-list are pinged because this update is relevant to how these two lists are changing.
Hey everyone, I hope you had a great Starfall! I’ll be closing the survey now (about half a day early, but at this point anyone who had been pinged has had plenty of time to fill it out, and I’m not expecting many more answers). Thanks for your input!
There are some major shop changes, which are detailed below. I apologize in advance for the text walls.
The waitlist is now a queue.
Timezones are an issue for people claiming slots, and now that I have classes I have less flexibility when it comes to choosing a random time of day to reopen. There was also a bit of an issue where I didn’t make it clear whether slots were opened or closed, and hopefully having it as a queue will save people from posting forms when they’re full. I also want to be able to get to everyone eventually.
People pinged from the waitlist will have 24 hours to give me their form(s). If they do not get back to me within this time, they will be skipped and dropped 3 places down the list. This will hopefully prevent a hold up if someone happens to be away for a period of time, but is less punishing than dropping someone to the end if they just happened to be busy for a day or two.
Perma-slots will still exist as a non-pinglist. People on this list will be automatically cycled back to the end of the queue, rather than being removed upon getting a slot.
My current waitlist is in chronological order, but unfortunately I don’t know where perma-slot people factor into the queue - therefore all perma-slot people will start out at the end, sorry!. There’s only 14 people in the waitlist, so hopefully it’s not too long of a wait - assuming I can meet my goal of 1 slot per day, that’ll be 2-ish weeks.
The order in which I complete orders will be based on when forms are posted, not the order of the waitlist. For example, if A B C D E are in line and get pinged for slots, but they responses go as C D A B E, the second sequence is the order in which I will work.
5 slots -> 3 slots | Slots reopen as they are completed
Since it’s a queue now, this shouldn’t make too much of a difference to you guys. It’ll just cut down on the waiting time for the people at the end of the slots (and reduce some of my stress to not make people wait too long). I will attempt to fulfill one slot of orders every day. You can still order up to two per slot!
Also, since it’s a queue, whenever I finish a slot I’ll ping the next person on the waitlist for their form, so hopefully it’ll cut down on waiting time there as well.
Subscription and Credit Systems
Don’t want to wait in the queue/have a lot of orders? Have an item on my waitlist, but it’s worth more than an order? Then these will help you out! Look at the 6th post for more information.
Animations
Price Changes
Changes can basically be chalked up to my continuing attempt to calibrate time and effort to costs.
Other but Important Things
Planning
Ridgebacks and Wildclaws have been sketched! I need to find time to line and color them, but they are in the works. Unless interest suddenly changes, I’ll likely be making Pearlcatchers and Tundras afterwards.
Group blocks are definitely something I’m looking forward to. At the moment I need to figure out how to make a form for them, so it’s easier for people to place orders and for me to fulfill them. Note that you’ll be able to have 2-3 dragons in a group block, and that you can only order one group block at a time. You will not be able to order a group and a single block at the same time.
If you have any questions, comments, or concerns about the shop and any of these changes, please feel free to say! I’m definitely still trying things out, so the more feedback, the better.
Also, thanks to everyone who answered the survey! You guys definitely helped me out c: I’ll be RNG-ing the raffle winner sometime after I wake up (it’s 1 am at the moment--).
Please check if you are on the right lists!

Animations
- Bouncing animation now has 2 options - the entire block hops up and down, or just the dragon.
- Add-on animations can now be requested. Please give clear and detailed instructions, and know that I may reject things that are too difficult. Also know that I can’t save anything as semi-transparent in GIFs.
- Animated blocks can be requested - something like a block that’s dripping goo or bubbling lava.
Price Changes
- Base price is now 15k, and skins are 15k to 25k depending on complexity.
- Iri/shim fee is removed, while the cry/fac fee remains 3k each
- Fees for requesting more than one type/speed of animation have been removed. Animations will now instead have a fee based on their type. Currently floating, bouncing, and raspberry animations are free, but custom add-on animations cost extra. Note that combining animations (such as floating while having add-on animations) may have an additional fee, if the combination results in needing many, many frames.
Changes can basically be chalked up to my continuing attempt to calibrate time and effort to costs.
Other but Important Things
- Front page reorganization. Some information has been moved around, such as the slots now being with the status in the 2nd post. Pinglists are now on a spreadsheet.
- Order form clean up and changes - please read the form explanation for details. Most notably, you can now request eye color.

Could I be part of a perma slot? I had initially wanted a ping to see whether I was still interested when it reopened (doubtful that I wouldn't be these are so incredibly cute) but I've since decided that I definitively want to have these as a cute little thing for all the dragons I plan on having in my hatchery. :o
