Hoard Discussion Thread v.5

Oh, ZEL, now I'm curious. I'm now thinking about, if I had to compare my hoarding tastes with someone else's on this thread who it'd be...

Heheh, go forth and compare!
Between your hoards and mine there's these, though mine are the smaller ones for the most part x)

Deduction
Goal: 1017/1887

Aaah, thank you Raire! Enjoy the wads of C$ x^D Finally got this hoard up to the 1k mark, and on our way to completion!

Congrats! 1k is such a satisfying goal to meet.

I'm starting to think we have similar tastes in designs - I hoarded those two outcomes as well Though only 30 in total. I had to cut down on the number a bit because I decided to hoard one of their littermates endlessly. Still nowhere near as big as your hoard (only at 344 so far), but what can I say? You've got some pretty awesome hoards :3

Great minds think alike ;^) Before I settled on just the adult and PPS I was actually debating hoarding their other sibling (the one neither of us hoards) in addition to these two because I thought it was gorgeous. Certainly would have helped me reach my goal faster but eh, I like these two a lot more. And I enjoy seeing them all nestled together x^D

And comparing hoards to others on here sounds like a WHOLE ton of fun but right now...I need to take a shower...cuz I woke up early for no reason and I've procrastinated enough x^P

Thank you, too!

It's such a nice hoard and reminds me of one of mine, since I also hoarded the PPS and adult from a litter where both outcomes look extremely similar. :3

That is a gorgeous hoard, Raire. I was actually thinking of hoarding the adult version a while back but decided against it x^D You don't see many adult/PPS combo hoards lately. At least I haven't O_O

Oh, and I also thought of a fun question while I was slaving away renaming (or more like un-naming) page after page of hoard pets:

Do you guys always name your hoard pets, or do you leave them unnamed? If you do name them, what do you go by? Lyrics, quotes, character names, etc?

I hope you don't mind me saying that I admittedly already did that when I saw the Deduction hoard :')
(Though considering my number of hoards, maybe I did you a favor.)
I must say I'm in awe at how you got so many big hoards going. I usually get lazy and cap it at 20-30, haha.

{M}ass {R}elays <-> possible hoard group
I definitely am gonna hoard them, though. The name is gonna be 'Exaggerata' and I think I'm going for 20.

Do you guys always name your hoard pets, or do you leave them unnamed? If you do name them, what do you go by? Lyrics, quotes, character names, etc?

I usually don't name all of my hoard pets, but I do have some hoard with name themes, yes.
Dreams Shining True are all (bar one) named after characters from the antagonist team in Pokémon Reborn. Shelly is from the same game, but very much not an antagonist.
Not all of my The Mundane and the Magic hummingwolves are named, but the ones that are (mostly at the back of the group) are named after CS friends and a bunch of users who I admire.
Most of my Sic Itur Ad Astra hoard is named after stars, with a few exceptions.
All pets in Heaven's Gate are named after planets that appear in Dan Simmons' Hyperion Cantos.
Each one in Natural Born Chaos is named after songs from the Soilwork album that I named the hoard after.

I also got lazy with these two:
Resist All Instincts was meant to be all 1984 related, and Welcome to the Chromeria should be all names and terms from Brent Weeks' Lightbringer series.

I HAVE SO MANY HOARDS I WANT TO START SO BAD BUT I HAVE TO HOLD MYSELF TO NOT TO AND I JUST UGH I THINK I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH HOARDING................. halp 0.o

I feel the same way Zoey, oh my god...I have like 300+ pets in my "Possible Hoards" group just waiting for me to either a) name the hoard and start it or b) just decide if I like them enough to start hoarding. I have way too many hoards at the moment so I'll probably try to finish a few before starting more...hopefully ;w;

Oh, ZEL, now I'm curious. I'm now thinking about, if I had to compare my hoarding tastes with someone else's on this thread who it'd be...

Alrighty time for me to try my hand at this! And nah, ZEL, I don't mind at all! I know I have a ton of hoards to go through though so I applaud your patience D^=

Little April Shower = {J}ack {S}eptic {E}ye

Just Breathe = Possible New Hoards (I'm hoarding all the other littermates x^D)

Arabian Nights = {M}ass {E}ffect: N7 (I'm also hoarding the blue pup outcome.)

Not too many but all your hoards are gorgeous tbh.

Well I mean, it was me going through your 27 vs. you going through my 202 xD

Also, very unrelated, but I noticed recently that I have run into a very silly problem and it's kind of frustrating me because it's a huge reason for why my progress with hoarding is so slow these days.
I've become increasingly hesitant about sending trades ever since I've started as a GH, because I get super anxious that I may accidentally send bad trades (I'm not all that great at trading tbh) and people will think I did it on purpose because I should know better or something .-.
I know it's kind of silly because I'm not required to be a good trader (hey, Tess herself says she's bad at trading xD), but I feel like it holds me back a lot because I'm just... awfully worried about sending trades that are unfair or anything, so I sorta just wait for people to send trades to me instead.

It's annoying me because I have so many hoards that are almost complete, or that I could easily complete in a day if I worked on it. And yet... nothing.

this is a million degrees of weird for me seeing my hoard pets in these groups oh my god
Yet it's so pretty XD
AAAAAH those skull pups are irresistible, ironically my original goal was 10 as well but then I got ONE extra I couldn't put in a trade group and... xD yep
You got good taste ZEL, good taste

Okay now this is funny because you're literally hoarding all the outcomes of a litter except the outcome I hoarded Not gonna lie though, I love the one with the glowing eye from that litter. It's one I may hoard as well *v*
as for the compliment, right back at you, going through your hoards was candy for my eyes XD

[Mortveil]

Sometimes I get the urge just to remove 90% of my hoards and instead focus on increasing the limits of my favourate hoards
maybe...

When you hoard newborns, what do you look for? What makes you hoard that specific newborn?

I rarely do, but when I do, I often look at the artist's other work, the overall colours and theme. Below are two pets I hoarded as newborns. The first looked just as awesome as its first growing stage as it does grown up, which is exactly why I hoarded it. I did wait until after the blanket stage as I was hoping the blanket wouldn't have an effect on this outcome, and it didn't. The second I loved the colours and the theme.

[DrinaLestrange]

Now I'm wondering if I have any hoards in common with you all
But I have too many hoards to list here so if you're also curious, mine are all labelled as hoards in my groups. (Apart from the flower dog newborns of course. Kept those with the other growing babes for now)

[ThunderCedar]

Omg Mortveil I think we have most hoards in common!!

I only really have one hoard but I've made it bc I'm making a stand against the extinction of bees so I'm hoarding the July 2015 butterfly wolves which look like bees.

http://www.chickensmoothie.com/accounts ... rid=776285

So far I have one of each kind except the Killer Bee and the teddy bear bee. It's not massive at thw moment but I'm hoping it'll help me make a peaceful protest haha
