so tl;dr while it could be argued that we could use more variation, CS is very much open to it, and I think it can only go up from there^^

This makes me so happy! I come from the land of AAA titles and it's very much NOT the case out there. You all rock.

Haha, I'm falling behind ;-; I need to focus and make sure I'm on CS every twenty minutes if I want to catch up and get everything this year c:

Same aha, but I feel like this event has waaay too many token trade-ins... I love the space theme and the pets are awesome but it's way too hard for me to keep up with like 4 different token-type items >_<''

That's true, I find myself getting confused every once and a while, but I do love the theme <3 Very creative!

- the audience, including children, self identifies as a diversity of genders and orientations. Be aware of assumptions of binaries and heteronormativity. Diversifying characters makes your content more inclusive and sends strong messages to your audience... Particularly children, who need these affirmations ... that they are not alone and that they are recognized and part of the world. This is a wonderful opportunity to say "yes, we know you are here." I'd use it.

Personally a but confused about the relevance of this on the site. The pets are very rarely assigned a gender, even when they are given names it doesn't go into their true gender or orientation. Breeding pairs don't even say which is mean't to be the mother & which the father, it is all left up to the individual user to decide. It seems very stereotypical & actually quite the opposite of inclusive to assume that everyone who identifies as GLBTIQ is going to in some way look different to a hetro person/creature. If people do want to make their pets reflect their look/ideal they can always dress them up.

On event news that banner hammy is still evading me

Seriously feel like a trading boss when it comes to handling pet swaps xD YES!

I'm missing quite a few still but I feel accomplished for finishing some of the trade ins.
So far I'm done with the garden flower trade-in, the alien farm trade-in, and the flurfle planet trade in.

The pets I'm missing are the robo rats, the grown hamster/rat astronaut, squids, banner hamster, and the grey dragon.

Also there is such joy in me when I seen that every single one of my blue hamster have the same outcome ^^" rip.
