New Pound system

Postby Nick » Wed Dec 03, 2008 6:22 pm

We've got a brand new Pound system! Check it out at:

http://chickensmoothie.com/pound.php

Now you don't need to post anything to adopt pets, and you can get the pet you choose instantly.. :). Check out the pound page for more rules and details.

you just click on the one you want to adopt, and if you're the first to click it, then you'll get it instantly

no more posting in the forum, and no more struggling with Tessa's timezone difference :P we can set the pound to open automatically at any time we want.

Also, the pound group will be much bigger each time, because it doesn't take nearly as long to wait for people to request and send them all out, so more people will get a chance

on the pound page it'll tell you how long until it opens :) you can't see the pets on that page until it opens, so don't panic if you don't understand it yet...

OMG Nick. I keep clicking on it over and over again but for some reason I don't know what's going to be new except that there's a set time for the pound to open xD *is kinda slow*

Does this mean we adopt from that page now? Or are we still gonna adopt from here on the forums?

*is so excited for the opportunity at the chance of adopting a pet she really wants 8D *

Which group will we be allowed to adopt from?

Or will everything be open then?

I pretty much went "ZOMG! :shock: " when I saw it. So the account "Pound" doesn't exist anymore?

The account still exists.

Just the adopting system changed.

I just did not figure out yet, how it is supposed to work technically. :?

Hey,

its kind of like the old Pound except more instant

we will (as usual) select a group to make available, the pound opens, all the pets available will be displayed

you just click on the one you want to adopt it, and if you're the first to click it, then you'll get it instantly

no more posting in the forum, and no more struggling with Tessa's timezone difference :P we can set the pound to open automatically at any time we want.

Also, the pound group will be much bigger each time, because it doesn't take nearly as long to wait for people to request and send them all out, so more people will get a chance

on the pound page it'll tell you how long until it opens :)
