(This is rushed and sloppy, sorry)
For #1: I am also confused as to why an e-mail can't be sent out to players, regardless? I do like this option a lot, it seems reasonable, except for not getting an e-mail conformation. People have unexpected hiatuses, or they might not rollover so actively to only see a notification on here. Sending out an e-mail could reduce the amount of RLs that have to go back through the system.

#5 & #6: These are really good ideas!? Especially coming from a person that doesn't necessarily care about the RLs themselves too much, but rather their traits.

I'm pretty neutral on #8, but if this were implemented, maybe it should just be an add-on rather than an entire solution itself. I also think that said items should also be account locked, non-transferable, non-sellable.

Thanks again for further communicating the RL solution!

Lol, I love the comic.

ETA: I wanted to add another user's suggestion, which was to not restrict the RL to older players, but: introduce a raffle for an applicator which would permit the winner (or winners) from a pool of older players (365 cumulative rollovers) to apply one of the BO marks to a lion of their choice.

(Still loving the chased option, so still adding another positive note to the symphony. )

i think not sending out an email is a horrible idea. i go through hiatuses, sometimes for several weeks or months. it seems a bit unfair to not at least ALERT someone that they won, and then essentially punish them for not rolling over something they didn't even know they won.

secondly i don't like the idea of releasing the current rl's design through ncl's - they're supposed to be rare and highly sought after. i could MAYBE see releasing some of their markings but not all their markings on an ncl. but it should be not many markings, and also pretty rare to come across. now i could see releasing the lost rl's that way. or again releasing ncl's with some of their markings but not at all of them, so it could help people who work on making their clones.

i also think it's unfair to raise the price to attempt to impress the rl, it seems fair that nearly everyone gets a shot. let's be real, that would mostly target newer players (who will struggle to have sb more than anyone else) and it seems unfair to exclude them just because some newer players will never roll again.

all in all, i hope we come up with a solution that is fair to everyone, and doesn't mess with their rarity too much.

i like the idea of not emailing users, it’s a good alternative to requiring certain rollover days throughout the week. i feel like the raffle lioness should be a reward for people who are active consistently.

also, i don’t think it’s that bad of an idea to raise the SB fee. i don’t really see how it would benefit anyone but it’s not that hard to make 50sb. You have to be dreamboat to even attempt to impress the lioness, if a new player can’t gather 50SB over the course of raising 10 impression levels, I think that’s an issue with explore or something and should be looked into. You can also get free daily SB for answering the sphinx questions, but again i’m not really sure what there is to gain with raising the price.

Thoughts on the new raffle lioness form:

#1 This is a good idea however I don't think it's fair for an email not to be sent. Also I believe you should extend the accepting period to two weeks just to really give them a chance.

#3 Just no, a lot of players are really struggling financially as it is

#4 Again I don't think this is a great idea as it would devalue the rl. Maybe only releasing one in explore would be all right but I'm not too excited about this idea.

#5 I think this is a lovely idea and a good way to spread raffle marks.

#6 I'm a little iffy on this one but I think it could work.

#7 I love this idea! A nice treat for long time Lioden players :)

#8 This is a wonderful idea! This would be perfect for new players and to ensure heats don't go to waste, etc.

The way I read the first option is that this is an idea they came up with (no email alert & have to log in & claim RL within a system that expires after x time) as an alternate to forcing the wednesday onwards activity rolls which were meant to ensure activity as they'd initially fully intended to implement that before feedback, to 'reward' active players while pre-emptively preventing inactive or banned users from winning the RL?

It could prevent raffle lionesses as they exist now from going to 'unavailable/inactive' (regardless of reason) or banned players since it prevents the inactive/banned-before-she-rolls accounts from ever winning her. (If you can no longer access your account because you got perma-banned before she rolled, you can't interact with the system?).

It's unclear whether the system would let you know you'd need to claim her & then lock out but you'd still see you'd missed your chance if the notification was still there, or if it would work as the current system so you'd never know you might've won her if you had enough room.
Having an email notification and a claim system might have felt redundant, else I can only imagine it's to ensure that the player's account is accessible & that they're 'actually' active when she rolls for either new traits to spread or for all else to know their decision soon after she rolls.
(Just thinking here).
Instead, forcing you to sign in just to check if you have a pending raffle lioness to claim? (A few weeks to claim vs required specific day rolling would give players who can regularly only be active on weekends a few weekends to claim? For example)

I.e. is this a Notification that we'd be able to see upon return? Or a feature or section of the game (Adventure) that's unlocked & only visible with an alert directing you there if you have a pending claim?

I think this would only be nice if folks wouldn't know (saying this as someone who'd rather know than not, but coming back from a health related unexpected hiatus to see a missed claim would suck, so I think it should be phantom/unknowable).

Same as the system re-rolls her if you don't have enough Territory space, and you'd never know you should have won her.


Anyway, hope it helps those who can't see why they might not have included a notification + claim system option, It's just one musing but seems to make sense when thought of in this manner, whether it's a personal favorite or not.



Personal suggestion to folks who are writing extra thoughts in this news post:
I'm not sure how this feedback will be incorporated into the form as it's a ranked voting per issue, so i'd remind those that feel strongly either way that 1 means DO NOT & 10 means that you like it as is written.
I'd interpret a positive leaning over (5 is neutral) like 6,7,8,9 to mean you sorta like it or need some changes
But please remember that you're voting on the google poll as it is written not your idea of how it should be changed.

^ I say this so someone may feel comfortable that they're accurately conveying their opinion numerically (counted) and via (possibly uncounted) text. While I trust that all feedback is being read at some point, we're responsible for making sure our own opinions are consistent and seen across the mechanisms forms and forums available to us to provide feedback.


Question for devs: It seems the community still had a lot to say about these polls- will there be a chance to incorporate further feedback before implementations are made, or is the current intention to implement the winning poll options as is?
We voted for Treasure Hunting to return & haven't had word yet, so while Raffle Lioness system is a different beast i'm unsure what the outcome will be.

Also, will we be notified if anything on the Google Form we voted on is changed?
It would be unfortunate for someone's vote to be miscounted if a clarification or addition changes the heart of the suggestion they voted on.

I'm popping off & online so apologies if anything is too wordy or convoluted today. Thanks!

Got a quick opinion about question 4. (I’ve filled out the form)

If a failsafe was not implemented to toss them back into explore, you’d be losing a raffle lioness chance. To me, the failsafe goes hand in hand with claiming the rls. If a failsafe was incorporated, then I feel the inability to auto claim is fine. But otherwise, I think the ability to auto claim should still be possible.

Just a quick opinion :D
