I read the entirety of the thread yes. Perhaps it was to keep troll-lions from existing (like the person who made a king with 10 of the same marking). To me there's no reason to have the exact same marking twice on a lion, and I know when it happens to mine I get annoyed. I'm personally glad they got rid of that option since now I don't have to double check both lions for matching markings before I breed. ![]() |

How dare people actually breed for what they want to breed for!! If you don't want to breed lions with two of the same markings, don't do it? It's literally not a hard concept. There was zero reason for the staff to implement this other than wanting us to spend more GB on Ochre Gnawrocks. And, even, if there were a valid reason, the very least they could do would be to tell us that they changed their system. ![]() |

I don't think it's the staff's job to police how people customize their kings. To me there *is* a reason to have the exact same marking twice on a lion. I was trying to breed a lion with sidereal points in slot 4 and 5, one of which was a rare slot. That was my project, and it shouldn't matter to you what other people's projects are. I think clean line breeding is dumb, but I'm not gonna abolish heritage all together to prevent them from enjoying the game the way they want to. Anyway, this suggestion is less about the actual breeding system and more about the communication issues. If the staff changed something that you cared about and didn't tell anyone, and you spent money on it, you would be angry too. It's just in this particular case, you weren't affected by the change. ![]() |

If someone wants to make a "troll lion", and stud them out, who are we to stop them. I have seen "troll lions" sell out every week. I love the way layered markings look. And clearly I am not the only one, as at least three people on this thread have had their projects ruined by the change. This game is supposed to let you do your own thing, breed how you like, have your pride your way, but now, you cant. Just because the change worked in your favor does not mean that everyone is happy with it. People had their own goals and may have spent quite a bit of money on something that they had to find out on their own had been taken away, no news post or announcement, all their work is now for nothing, and had they not been looking around they would have never known, and continued to waste their currency on something that could never be. ![]() |

Agreed with the above points. There's no legitimate reason to police "troll lions" as you call them, either. People can do what they want with their lions and there should be no restrictions. I feel like the only actual reason for this implementation was for people to have to spend money on GB so they can buy more Ochre Gnawrocks from other players, but that's just me. ![]() |

I hate how the lioden admins don't say a single thing about this until it is noticed by a player who has used and then wasted their Money on this project. I personally LOVE double markings, I think it makes them stand out more, and if this choice is no longer avaliable, it just feels like lioden is going to soon turn into one of those sites that no one can trust. I feel bad for the new players who don't understand what is going on, meanwhile, for the players who actually understand this game, we have to deal with this shit that's getting laid upon us without notice. I was actually thinking of doing a project for a double onyx zebra, well, I guess that isn't happening until something is done about it. ![]() |

"...this change they made had no reason to it. There was no one (that I know of) out there saying 'you know what I hate? breeding double markings and colors."..." I said there was a reason. I'm not 'no one', even if I'm only one person. I don't think I'm the only one who thinks the way I do either. It's not just not breeding to a double, it's checking if any of my lioness's markings are the same. " "Troll Lions". So. If someone wants all the same markings you count that as a troll lion?..." If it's a marking that can be added with 'marking applicator' then yeah it's trolling. "I love the way layered markings look." As do I, different colors of the same marking do look cool together. There's no difference in appearance though between a double marked (opacity 40% and 60%) and a single 100% opacity. Besides, you can add almost all markings in (November?) relatively easily ![]() |

There is a difference between a multi marked opacity 100% and a single 100% opacity. ![]() ![]() (that's one cloudburst web vs three cloudburst web) "If it's a marking that can be added with 'marking applicator' then yeah it's trolling." We're talking about breed only marks primarily here. Rosettes, celestial marks, sidereal marks, etc. Also? If someone actually likes their lion, they're not trolling. People have different tastes. Also, you actually can't add "almost all markings" in november, you can add event NCL marks and that's it. So... I don't really get the points you're making. ![]() Edited on 10/09/17 @ 17:26:23 by cin✨siderealfelis™️ (#106573) |

....I never noticed a change. If I may ask, what is the point of having two or more of the exact same markings on a lion? Same marking styles with different colors I understand (they make cool new shades), but the exact same? ![]() |

"I said there was a reason. I'm not 'no one', even if I'm only one person. I don't think I'm the only one who thinks the way I do either. It's not just not breeding to a double, it's checking if any of my lioness's markings are the same." A minor inconvenience at best to a small amount of players should not dictate how others choose to design and breed their lions. Some people like more than one of the same marking because they choose to make it look more prominent for their lion's design. Not everything is breeding to some players; they also enjoy designing a specific looking lion for their own reasons. Why should they be penalized because a few players didn't want to muster up the courage to earn one GB for a marking remover to remove a double (which doesn't really happen to many lions unless being specifically breed for the purpose.) If it is THAT much of a problem, suggest a remover to be added to the Monkey Shop for a smaller amount of SB. Like how marking opacity changers are in the Monkey Business. Or, you could just not stud to/buy from lions who have more than one of the same marking if it is that much of a bother? "If it's a marking that can be added with 'marking applicator' then yeah it's trolling." Again, sometimes people like to do multiple marks of a lion because they like the design, not because what they're doing fits your definition of "trolling." "As do I, different colors of the same marking do look cool together. There's no difference in appearance though between a double marked (opacity 40% and 60%) and a single 100% opacity." There is a large difference between two 100%s, though. It can change a design. ![]() Edited on 10/09/17 @ 17:52:03 by 🌿 - Crux {Side} - 🌿 (#57259) |

By restricting markings, it's restricting playstyle and that's bullshit. B u l l s h i t. If I want to breed for a double onyx rosette with mottled and gold rosettes, it's not anyone's right to tell me that, just because they don't like it, I shouldn't be allowed to breed it. "It's not just not breeding to a double, it's checking if any of my lioness's markings are the same." Oh? So it's too much work for you to simply look at your lioness's markings to make sure your play style stays as you want it? That's not our job to bow to honey. That would be your problem. Let me tell you, breeding two of the same markings on to one lion was hard even when we were able to do it. Male lion's markings roll before the female's, so if the male has markings that pass easily, your shit out of luck. It's hard to breed this way, but we do it because we like how it looks and we want a challenge. There is no reason to tell us that we can't breed markings we like. You literally don't have to breed for it if you don't want to, no one is grabbing your hand and forcing you to play like us. You can play like you want, but we have a right to play how we want. ![]() |

Also, there are applicators which apply markings completely by chance. So, if you use Fiery Unders, you could get a whole heck of a lot of Fiery Undershine. However, now that your lion has gotten these markings completely by chance, you can't breed more than one of them onto a cub. So, you're going to get pretty low-marked, ugly, cheap cubs simply because the site's RNG decided "nope, fuck you". ![]() |
