“Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder.
Many who try to climb it fail, and never get to try again.
The fall breaks them.
And some are given a chance to climb, but refuse.
They cling to the realm, or love, or the gods…illusions. Only the ladder is real.
The climb is all there is." -Petyr Baelish[/center]

Because not all pets are worth the same ^.^

The october dogs got released without an adoption limit. People adopted 100's, 1000's of them. In 2009, adoption limits started to happen. Pets became rarer/harder to get and you didn't had a Guarantee of getting the rarest outcome. In 08 if you missed an outcome, you simple just adopted until you had more. This is the exact reason why the card dogs are only rare now, while the joker is very rare. The joker was harder to get C: In 09, if you missed an outcome, you couldn't go and adopt more.

That's quite interesting, I think. I always wondered why there are so many '08 dogs in people's trade groups.

Just wanted to clarify that the adoption limits didn't only start to happen in 2009, they started to happen in the middle of November 2008 (around November 10th, judging from what posts I could find about it) and have been around ever since ^^ (of course, by then the damage was already done to the November dogs XD; )

Which has more demand? The Light Speckled Rat, Medium Speckled Rat, or the Heavy Speckled Rat? Sorry if this isn't the correct thread.

I don't think the 2012 UR Cat is that low. Maybe Nonballoon level instead?
And for the 2012 UR Dog, I'm thinking Blue - Pink Sorbet level.
And for the UR Flowerpot, I agree with you.

But right now we shouldn't really be talking about placements right now because of demand, which might mess up things. ;3

^ I disagree with all of those valuations. Cat & Dog are valued too low, Pot too high.

We should really wait until they get a rarity tag and the initial trading settles down so we can get a better feel for what the supply and demand will be. UR Dog is the only one with a chance of going OMG so rare I am thinking; but with Nick's rarity change it's likely it will be VR as well.
