A Community Pet Guide - Coontail Placed!

[EmberzTale]

I was asked to post this suggestion by PM so that the suggestor could remain anonymous!

Which list will this pet be added to?
the vr list

Insert an image of the pet below:


Where can the pet be found in the archive:
november 2008

What is the pet's original release date?:
november 2008. not sure if it was re-released or not though

Why should this pet be added to this list?:
it has huge demand :> i believe that a pet that can get an omgsr in a trade should be placed on the list even if it's not as rare

Do you have any trade evidence to support this?:
x x x x x
(if they were cancelled that was because the person on the joker side wanted more, i just wanted to point out that they get offered omgsr pets)

So is this a rebuilding of the rares list, but with pets separated into the categories? I have some questions...

Where will the Special Release (zebras, dragons) pets go?
How much will the guide be driven by rarity?
How much demand will be included?
How will pet placements be decided?
Will a few be done together to get things started?
Will you go with a tier approach,.asking what pets should be in each tier, or a pet approach, asking what pet will go in which tier?
How will you make it clear that tiers across different categories cannot be compared? For example a tier 10 VR is not better than a tier 1 omgsr.
Why did you choose the number of tiers that you did?

I think those are all of my questions for now ^.^

1. That is a good question! I'm not sure if they count as UR or regular release pets so I think I'm going to have to get some help from the general helpers and see if there's an official classification for them. If not, I think we'll put it on the list of things to discuss and see what the community thinks.
2. This guide doesnn't really focus around definite rarity but it does take rarity tags into consideration. For example, on the store pet and UR lists you will be able to find the omgsr pets above the vr pets.
3. Demand is a tricky subject because there's no way to tell how much will be incorporated into this list; the pets are placed by community input so its up to user's opinions on where the pets are placed.
4. Placements are decided by the community. A poll will be placed asking which tier the pet should go on and the majority vote is where the pet is placed.
5. All pets will be placed seperately; it may take a while but I think rushing pets may make their placement inaccurate.
6. It will be a pet approach. All pets will be polled asking which tier they shall be placed at.
7. Right now, whether or not the lists should be compared is a topic for future discussion.
8. 10 tiers seems like a manageable and reasonable amount. Having the pets so far spread out can cause confusion. Having pets grouped together in bigger groups can make trading for a pet equal on this list a little easier.

Thanks for the questions!

I'm hoping to get a few more opinions on the guide before we move forward! Feel free to voice your thoughts whether publicly or privately (via PM).

I think we're going to go ahead and begin placing our first pet on the OMGSR list. We're going to start with the Dogtag!


OMG So Rare - July 2008

Feel free to begin discussing why you feel that the pet should be on the specific tier you voted for and please vote in the poll! The tier that has the largest number of votes is where the pet will be placed! The poll will run for one week and will allow vote changes.

is tier 1 or tier 10 the highest?

Tier 10 is the highest tier and tier 1 is the lowest!

I'm hoping we can get a few more opinions on our first pet placement!

The placement poll ends in about 14 hours so get your votes in now if you haven't already!
