Current Ticket Total: 30337
41 prizes, 103 participants
(as of 1/24)
There were a
lot of participants yesterday and I've been trying to work on replying to everyone from now on (there are so many earlier posts I wanted to reply to that I may go back in the thread and reply to everyone from the start until I catch up). That being said, there were a
lot of participants yesterday so I'm gonna pull the birthday card and apologize for only replying to a few that I actually had something to say in response - but
everyone's participation yesterday has been noted and appreciated <3
The winners have been chosen in a
previous post for the birthday hatchlings mini raffle but the main raffle is still on going.
@
fysiikka That thoughtful compliment for Cipactli means a lot. I'm a bit of a language and cultural anthropology nerd and actual do a lot of reading up on various myths and meanings when I name a dragon, usually taking hours to do so lol. It's nice to see direct appreciation for those (admittedly enjoyable) efforts :D
@
Self Thanks <3 that accent is a great pick, I actually tried it out on a silhouette scrolled scry of Eloa before settling on reprinting my Twilight Dahlias for her instead. I have no plans to get her a mate anytime soon, but I might and that is definitely one of the accents I will be trying on when I do <3
So glad you appreciate my pinky and the brain. I'm surprised there aren't more of them given how popular ratties are after glowtail became a tert. Then again, it did take me poking around someone else's ratties at the same time my son was randomly singing the theme song to get it stuck in my head so lol. <3
(which isn't hard to do, you're now guilty of getting stuck in my head again lol)
@
Golden Thank you so much <3
I only got you down for 4 extra tickets though having looked through to see that you didn't have credit for the 3 newest and the upcoming Eloa. I was a little confused by your lovely compliment to the hatchlings and went back to the raffle post as a result of your post to clarify that complimenting and starring the raffle hatchlings doesn't count for tickets.
That being said, since your post was before my clarification, I awarded you another 5 extra tickets for a compiled compliment of the babies I'm not keeping <3 (total of 9 more tickets for you).
I also have replies to those compliments in case you were interested in a little background :D I myself love this particular combo of aether that I couldn't decide between Chymista's two parents and went I have both so why not just keep both even though they're remarkably similar? Then I got the accent for the one that made them extra different lol. I'll probably move them to the den once they make back what I spent on them and get pulled out only on request/once a year after that (as is the case for all pairs I've made a family kscope for actually).
As for the other you complimented, I also have not kept many banescales to be honest, but I got a pair to breed up a
sandsurge project and found as I waited that I really liked
the mom with that unyielding sun accent. Almost declared her a keeper directly but can't resist trying to get one with light eyes since
theoretically they should've given me a clone by now lol. That oilslick poison/toxin is just super awesome and she passed it on to this baby :D (but I want oilslick/oilslick/grapefruit lol). They keep denying me the grapefruit tertiary BOTH of my current breeding projects are refusing to give me my grapefruit tertiary. My first partner joked that grapefruit must not be in season (I've been trying since whenever sandsurges released).
It's fine though, the babies tend to sell pretty quickly so that's helped me recoup a lot of the expenses involved already.
As for one of your dreamcatchers I'm absolutely not gonna say no, they're gorgeous <3 I've been meaning to place an order anyway lol. I'll give you their value in tickets as if you bought them with treasure/gems when I remember to put in an order <3
@
Catmushroom11 Together with your PMed key phrases and added star counts (including Eloa) you now have activated bonus tickets giving you 137 tickets total so far! Thanks so much for participating. As for when you completed the base participation compared to bonus tickets, it's not "too late" until the raffle's over ;D (ie you're just fine, nothing at all too worry about). Also, if I minded that many PMs I wouldn't be encouraging something inviting PMs so you're totally fine there too <3
Anyway, I totally don't mind having to remind people about the bonus tickets, I'm aware even when you didn't find it through a different thread that the instructions are
a lot and I'm not the most concise person at giving them. Totally don't mind sending out a little nudge so people don't miss out on the bonus tickets they earned.
@
IndigoStarshine Birthday twins! Tell my birthday twin I said happy birthday to their now past self lol (and thanks for starring Eloa <3 )
@
lunawolf23 Thank you so much for the new stars and compliments <3 Mostly dropping you a note to let you know that you currently have 196 tickets when counting your bonus tickets <3 (reblogging on tumblr and 2 key phrases). Your 151 is correct though counting just the dragon stars and compliments. Since you've starred at least 25 dragons your bonus tickets are active so true total so far: 196 ;D
@
ClockworkEclipse Thanks <3 and no worries, I know exactly what it's like for the brain to put up word blockers. Which is why I belatedly put Eloa in as a pre-emptive star for those who already starred everyone else <3 (she wasn't part of this for like an hour maybe? Not until the first person who confessed difficulties with writing said something and I was like oh, that's fair /has a think)
Hope today is better on you (not necessarily for compliments, just it sucks and I hope it's better <3 )
@
zophronia No worries, I know it's a lot to process at once, I'm not great at writing up instructions and what not lol. That being said, you did just fine and while pings aren't necessary, I don't mind them <3 I got you noted for 30 tickets now <3
And to answer your question, yes, part of the reason I gave Perfuma a silhouette scroll is because she's headcanon trans for a lot of fans, myself included <3
As far as my reading tells me, the character was actually originally designed to be trans, the artist just forgot to say anything about it when they cast a non-trans voice actress for her and that's the only reason she's not listed as canon trans too.
Though also bio wise she was going to be listed as trans regardless of which gender hatch gave me the colours I needed. I am extra tickled though that she hatched extra accurate to that head canon :D (f pose was a must for her regardless since I definitely wasn't game for putting a headcanon trans character in a misgendering pose).
She also hatched during World Kindness Week which is super accurate for her character too lol. Thanks for visiting and thanks for the compliment <3
