[OOC] Newbie/Oldbie Thread: Questions and Advice

[ArashiX]

A question concerning customs:

I'll be posting a custom form shortly, for a custom-in, in the September Customs Bash.

I'd asked a friend of mine, and was told that I could ask for [on the rogue lines] Cub - Adol on one set of lines, with the adult on the other line.

What I'm wondering if I could get the Cub on one set of lines, and then the Juv - Adult on the other set? A reversal, if you will, if that's not too confusing to the colourist?

I like certain pieces on each set of the Rogue lines, but I realize to ask for specific ones on one set, and switching over to the other would get confusing. ^ ^;;

I'm not certain- I suppose theoretically you could swap back and forth among the lineart sets for rogues, but I've never personally seen that done. As long as the colorist is alright with it, I would guess you could do that.

I don't think Reeshie as asking how you can become eligable for low luck status. What she's asking are what are the benefits.

I've been trying to get the same lioness since March 2009. I have 10 links with her form in the September Customs thread, even though I could provide more. It would be nice to know if me having those 10 links with my form actually meant something. Like, is there going to be a separate raffle for low luck SoAs?

heart Still waiting for an answer on this, but I'm guessing Mila is the only one who may know. What are the actual benefits of proving that an SoA concept is low luck?  

[~Masamune~]

smile Here's Mila's answer to the Low Luck questions:

"Because some colorists may decide to take a low-luck custom, simply knowing it's low-luck, or may do low-luck only customs in the future?"

Thank you, Fel. I'd just tagged a note onto my custom form, while waiting. <3

As far as the second custom for Mix and Match. If you customed a Hybrid lets say September. Could you get the second slot if your lion/whatever gets picked. Or dose having a hybrid not allow you to take that second slot?

Okay, I have a question about the 1,000 word SRPs. Say, you're using multiple SoA in the RP, is there a limit to how many words each character must have in the RP for it to count for them in a breeding?

I have this RP, written in story style, that has 5 of my characters in there, however some of them have fairly minor roles, but the RP itself is over 1,000 words. Does that mean even the minor role characters can use it for a breeding for them, or do they need to have a certain amount of words/activity in the RP for it to count?

Thanks.

I want to know this as well!

Also (and this might be a little macabre/off the wall) but what if you have a mated pair of lions who have a litter. They roll, say, three. What if, for plot reasons, I wanted to say that a few cubs passed away. For example. They roll the three, +2 customs = 5 cubs. In roleplay, they say they had 7 cubs and that two passed away. Can this happen? Does this make sense? AUGHRHG! XD

@Pinch: As far as I know, and any colorists can correct me if I'm wrong, you can't say that. It would have to be rolled cubs that would be deceased in that case.  

[bipolar bee]

Okay, I'm glad I asked. :3 Thank you Tor-mah-luff! <3  

[ArashiX]

I'd received permission to attempt to custom in to a litter, and I know I have until before the litter first grows to get a slot, but:

Do I have to go through the colourist that did the litter, or is it acceptable to go through another colourist?

Still looking for an answer to this <3
