That’s a relief, thinking back on the christmas advent thing where pets go back to omgsr after their very rare fluctuation. I was thinking, “who on earth would be deleting sunjewels? It can’t be but why would they go back to omgsr after?”

I guess if the system counts the ones being traded it makes sense, while the populace ‘at rest’ are kinda dead numbers.



Wait..what? You can't delete pets. Rarities go up because more users are joining and that effects how many pets per user there are.

You can, and it is theoretically possible for a certain pet to go up in rarity if a lot of users delete it (*coughcough*theredeyedproject*cough*).

Rarity reflects the pet-per-user ratio.

You can delete pets ^^ It might be because of that ^^



...the more you know .___. When I joined a mod told me you can't delete pets, I've always thought you can't. Sincerest apologies, I never knew.

The red eyed project people don't delete pets, I thought they just hoarded them.

It's possible, but I think it's generally just the total number of pets in circulation (not just that specific outcome) coupled with the growing number of users.

It counts the ones in existence, not those up for trade. It's pretty much impossible for the computer to tell what's up for trade versus what's not

The amout of outcomes also played its role well. Considering the presence of these two factors (lol nerdy wording), the rarity change wasn't -that- surprising IMHO.

The Shima Longtail's a regular adopt and thus an entirely different case.

Yes, I know that. But what I mean is, we couldn't choose what bat we wanted. If we bought a cage we could get either of the 10 outcomes. So just because one bat was more popular than the other bats, doesn't necessarily mean that it was rarer.
So in this case it's exactly like any regular litter.

But I agree with you. I'm not surprised at all that they're starting to change now =3
And it's really not that quick a change, I mean they are from Halloween 2010..

I meant the popularity of the entire litter. x3

I'm not sure whether this one was meant to be rarer than its littermates (if it was, the others will turn VR in no sooner than a few months) or it happened by random chance (just like in the Black Pointy-eared Border Collie's case - it went Very Rare one month before all other 08 advents).

Yes, I also know that X3
But I was responding to Aurora Storm who said the natural bat and the skelly bat were more popular than the rest X3
They might have been more popular, but that doesn't mean those two are rarer than the rest.

And I'm sure rest of the bats will follow shortly =3
