kinda self explanatory? i got tired of seeing the same lions over and over again every time i log in, so i was thinking lions owned by players could be chosen at random (or maybe nominated?) to be featured on the home screen. underneath the picture of the lion would be their name and a link back to the owners page. and owners could get a game notification saying something along the lines of "Congrats! Your lion, Name, has been featured on today's home page!" it'd be a good way for players to get exposure and for those seeing the lion's image to interact more with the community. i could see this feature being a bad thing because of the "prestige" of your lion getting chosen? but ykno. if you don't support for a specific reason, tell me why! overall though, this is kinda just a for-fun idea and might be a little too frivolous to be implemented anytime soon, or ever. thanks anyways!!! ;3c *EDIT* Additions by Skkon_ (#41823) "I very much prefer a randomized selection over a nomination system!

The downfall with "nominating" lions daily, weekly, monthly, whatever is that there will be a huge disadvantage for new people." Additons by BlockedRelic06 (#124168) "A possible variation on that is a toggle box option on your lions, maybe at the bottom of their page near their profile or something where you can choose something like "Have this lion featured on the home page?" and then tick the box if yes, or leave it blank if no. Maybe a way to block someone ticking all their lions in an effort to get at least one featured, each person could have a limit to how many they can select to be shown? Possibly based off of territory; every 10 territory = one lion you can choose or tick to be submitted or something, that way everyone has a chance to have their lions featured and it won't be a ton of the same player's lion if they have a ton of them." |

Oooh, this sounds nice. :) I have gotten a little tired of the same image over and over again, too. 0 players like this post! Like? |

@mixitpixit yeah, my original idea was for lions to be nominated in perhaps a separate thread, but i realized that might get a little crazy, so someone else suggested they be picked randomly. 0 players like this post! Like? |

Cute idea -- like a random lion feature! > I could see people being worried about featuring lions that are also studs. I don't personally think it'd be a problem, but I could see how people would worry about how that would skew the studding market. Maybe the feature could be for any lion that ISN'T a king! > Another snag I can foresee is that this might result in a lot of potatoes / NCLs being randomly featured... So that'd work AGAINST the decision to show non-king lions. Not sure how the system could fix that. > Again, I prefer the idea of king features, but even that would result in some rolled kings showing... Then again, it wouldn't be many, so maybe that IS the better option!! > I get where you're coming from with the nomination idea, but I think that'll wildly skew the system. It'll go from a fun feature to a spotlight for a few select popular people. I can't see how that would be integrated in an efficient and fair way, unfortunately! These are the details I can foresee as being problems, but really, I do support! 0 players like this post! Like? Edited on 01/11/17 @ 17:25:31 by Skkon_ (#41823) |

I'm on the fence about this. I love the idea, but, it depends on which way it goes. I would prefer to see a 100% randomized selection. This way there would be no favoritism selected and it would give every player a chance to be featured on the main page no matter what lion, what mutation, so forth. The downfall with "nominating" lions daily, weekly, monthly, whatever is that there will be a huge disadvantage for new people. 0 players like this post! Like? |

I definitely agree with @Nyte. I very much prefer a randomized selection over a nomination system! And I think they bring up a good point about it being a disadvantage for new people! Now that I think about it, showing rolled lions wouldn't be a huge deal, ESPECIALLY if the featured lion changes every time you open the home page! GUH I like this idea I wonder how difficult it would be to code... 0 players like this post! Like? |

Especially support the 100% random idea. A way to keep potatoes & kings out would be to select from the FEATURED lions for each player's cave. :) I'm new and haven't spent time in decor (yet! I'm still working on breeding some new to me color combos). It would be neat to see what others are doing with their lions. 0 players like this post! Like?

I see a few problems with this, maybe we could feature like 3-5 instead of just one? It would lower the chances of rolled lions, ncls etc :0 0 players like this post! Like? |

@akeli well, the lion image on the home screen changes every time you open the home page, so yes it would feature several lions a day! 0 players like this post! Like? |

I would prefer to see lions that have been submitted by the person who owns them as opposed to a truly randomised system featuring all lions in the game. This way lions that are truly nice looking with awesome complementary decor can be chosen to feature on the home page. I want to see gorgeous lions, not someone's random potato cub that they bred that day. This way people have the option of not being included in the randomisation too, a default "opt out". 0 players like this post! Like? |
