RVEC Suggestions Thread

The association shop isn't a bad idea, but I can already tell that would get to be too much for me to keep track of ^^' Because I don't post on all of the associations, it'd be up to those purchasing to keep track of the currency and then post it on the main thread so I could update it... and even for me, I know posting forms all the time is really tedious xD Plus then it would be up to me to update each horse's stat every time something is purchased... I'm doing my best for you guys and I really do love this, so I don't want to be putting any ideas down, but it's hard for me to be having to update so many little things all the time and I fear I'd lose track way too easily ^^'

I don't mind doing the foot and coat supplements for the 24-hour raffle, so hopefully that will be good enough ^^ I also don't want to make them too easy to get, as that will then decrease the worth of horses that naturally have those high stats c:

Just to add on to the deal with numbers for the raffler and spam,

I know of a completely unrelated forum that was set up sort of like D&D - each person had a number associated with them so when it came time for a random event or something - Don't exactly know the minute details - a random number would be drawn from the previous established.

Each horse is already pre-numbered, that could be an option for complete individuality.

But this would affect the 'not wanting to make it easy' bit.

And then if people had the ability to opt out of a comp, it's tedious on your end with forms, pm and posts.

There's the possibility of buying into the option each -insert period of time- 100c for the chance to win a monthly raffle. Those with higher stats might not want to spend the money on something they don't actually need.

Or even put a cap on it. 'If your horse has over -blah- points, you won't be affected.

Gah! I'll try to stop thinking! Which should happen, since I've been up for over 24 hrs...

I like the monthly raffle idea! I could do that with large quantities of supplements (and a cap per horse) or maybe a series of supplements -- I like that idea c:

I do think assigning each person a number would make it a little too easy, and then there's the problem that some users may be inactive ^^

No, keep the ideas coming! I really appreciate the suggestions c:

I has an idea!

*clears throat*

What if a player becomes bankrupt so to speak, and they were wanting to sell their barn and all their horses. It could be like a real bankruptcy sale; The horses are auctioned, and the barn will have a set price. Whoever wants the barn can pay that amount or two players could go into a bidding war over it? I don't know about this idea, it's just a thought.

[SydneyandStorm]

Well firstly, I most certainly hope that none of you ever go bankrupt! xD 20,000 is an awful lot, so hopefully it'll be pretty difficult to lose it all.

That could certainly be an option! It'd have to be a decision made by the owner, however. If the owner of the barn decides not to sell their horses and barn immediately, the horses would probably be seized and adopted out as rescues while the barn probably could be offered up for auction ^^

I've been thinking, and since there's one or two gaited horses now, maybe you could add Saddleseat as a discipline?

[SydneyandStorm]

Well, the problem with that is that we don't have the equipment for that ^^' Each discipline has to have two accessories, and I can't imagine what would be added for saddleseat... you know?

[landofmakebelieve]

I never thought of that. Good point.

[SydneyandStorm]

I just wanted to explain why I'd chosen the disciplines that I had -- that's all c:

Regarding cattle cutting, may we get our cattle from Silverbell now?
