Day 1
_______________________________________________ Summary:
The Lioden Nuzlocke, or Liolocke, is a Hard Mode game designed to make LioDen more challenging. The stakes are high, the rules are a little insane, and it's certainly a long-term challenge. The reward of achieving your goals, however, is more than worth the effort.
This post lists the rules of Liolocke, and the following posts in the thread will track my day-to-day progress through the challenge. In my case the rules have ben changed but still has a level of difficulty.
_______________________________________________
Goal:
- Produce interesting looking/decent to high stat cubs, including the descendants of my first king and his ncls.
-Have either my first king or his descendants on the most stats leaderboard
- Keep a clean-blooded pride (i.e no inbreeding and no Big 4), this only applies to the lions kept in my pride (sold and chased lions can become dirty).
- Survive for at least five king's rules, 10 if I can manage it.

The Rules:
Starting Rules:
πThe pride starts with nothing. No currency, items or lions except for a re-rolled king.
πI begin the Liolocke with 0 sub-male slots and a territory size of 2.
πAny territory expansions purchased prior to the liolocke have to be 'unlocked' via randomly gifting the currency which would have been used for said expansion.
Items:
π I may purchased items from Monkey Business and the Oasis, but only using currency earned during my Liolocke Challenge
π I may purchase applicators and decor from other players. All other items - food, toys, etc. - must be earned through Explore or purchased from Monkey Business or the Oasis. (I can only purchase from the Oasis once per rollover.)
π I will not accept gifts from other players, unless they are sent during the December event. If I am gifted, I will pay it forward to someone else. Unless they are part of the Liolocke then in such case I must gift them as well
π I cannot not transfer apps, food, items, lions or currency between my two accounts once the challenge begins.
π I may sell my own lions and cubs, but only "living" ones. (Lions and cubs that "die" via the challenge must be killed or chased off).
π I may sell my own items and food, but only if they were obtained during the Liolocke challenge.
π I can take items from the Giving Tree but the cubs must be left alone
