Hoard Discussions Thread v.7!

[Lacuna]

I’ve seen multiple types of hoards around here—either a single outcome, whole litter outcomes, general species, etc. What type of hoard do you prefer? If you had to start a hoard for a type you don’t usually do, what would it be?

I love hoards that look cohesive. So, if I hoard multiple pets from the same litter, I'll probably skip the PPS pets or put them in their own hoard because they break the flow. I like a good color story (especially neutrals with a pop of bright color), and I don't like to have pets of a starkly different rarity in the same hoard, because if there are multiple pets I prefer to have an even number of each (and if I do have that I will plan very carefully and stop collecting the more common ones once I get enough). I usually do single outcome hoards as one-page adventures, but occasionally something looks so satisfying I just want to scroll through hundreds of them. In the end, it's all vibes lol.

If I was to start an unusual hoard for me, I'd probably take on the challenge of a checkered hoard; they look so satisfying but ID swapping is a challenge.

I broke down,, I told myself I wouldn't start hoarding until after I collected all of the uncommons and below but alas. Here we are.

An admirable litter to give in to, they're just so cute! Personally, I wouldn't be able to stop until I got to 1000.

Hmm...this pps pony is...kinda cute...



Must...resist...hoarding instinct!!!

EDIT: Okay, I caved and started hoarding it. Mostly because I think it would be cute to have a hoard in honor of my son, who will be born by this Sunday or Monday at latest if he doesn't come out on his own before then lol

That's so cute! Congratulations, and may you have a quick, easy labor. <3

Usually I do single-outcome hoards, I think, as there will usually be just one pet I like enough from the litter to hoard. Occasionally I do full-litter hoards but that's far rarer. I do not like the idea of a general species hoard for myself as that seems FAR too stressful...plus, if I don't like how a specific pet looks why would I hoard it?

If I had to start a hoard for a type I don't usually do, I think I would try to do a checkered hoard. I've always thought about doing it, but I don't quite understand the mechanics of HOW (I know it has to do w/ID numbers) and with how LARGE most of my hoard goals are I feel like it would stress me out too much TToTT

They are too cute not to hoard, I can totally understand it, haha! Hoarded two of them myself.
We definitely need more mice =)

Mostly single outcomes, sometimes checkered hoards with 2 outcomes.
Very rarely litter hoards (I think I only have 3).

My Bestie (who I actually met on CS back on 2009 and first time in real life 2013 and now yearly since 2020) absolutely loves JellyFish, so I wanna do a mini hoard of these in honor of her.

They are absolutely cute as well!

How did the September challenge go for you?
Did somebody break one of the current records? =D

[Lacuna]

i just started the hoard today and i'm still yet to come up with a name, but i'm hoping i can collect at least a few of these guys. currently i have three of them.

These are surprisingly hard to find, I'm doing a mini hoard of them too!

I can relate to that so much, there are weeks where I don't spot a single person with the black raven from 2013 for my hoard, and then I trade for 5 in a day.

I even overshot my goal! I though with the limited time of wanting to hoard a staff pet (that needs to grow up and people are very hesitant to trade them away) I'd get a max of 50.
Still I managed to get my September challenge hoard to 100!
