I actually debate this, given that I know several people who had pets adopted PRIOR to the rollback we just had... that grew before the rollback, were rolled back, and then grew after into a DIFFERENT alt. surprised

IT IS A MYSTERY

The rollback is indeed a mystery ~ but alts are determined at point of adoption unless the information is manually altered by someone with access.

I won a Botb mini from a thread game, and I received a Botb mini through a trade - it turns out they were the same kind of mini, so I have two Botbs of the same kind. XD What are my options with this? Am I allowed to sell it on the marketplace, am I allowed to trade it? Or am I just.. stuck with it for life O_O

That's up to the owner of that one ,I have no clue who gave you it!

Oh wait, really? So I can ask DFA for permission to do something with it? I traded with her for it (the other was won in a game done by Reeshie)

Yep just like any other mini! Ie: you can trade SE minis that are not yours if you have direct permission from the SE owner!

Do the new shooting star/solar flare/meteor shower count as wish pets for the purpose of trophies? They are similar in style/design and star-themed, but don't have "wish" in the name.

In the bribe info post, it says don't bribe unless the colorist slots are open for bribes. Where are the "slots" located?

Sorry I have fixed this! If a colourist has "OPEN" in their slots, they are open for bribes! If you are looking for an SE based on an existing SE, look for the label of that to be open. If it is closed, they are not taking any more for the month!

Once again to reiterate for everyone- bribes are a IF basis - we will only pm you back if we accept the bribe!

Sadly they do not! The shooting star/ cosmic themed pets are actually distant cousins and will be appearing in a shop near you!

Another trophy question :3

In the form that you post when claiming a trophy (In this post it says that you need at least 12 of the requirements)>
But in the forms that you fill out to track your trophy, it says you need 15.

Which one is it? :3

EDIT - thanks for answering :3 I figured that was probably the case, but figured it was worth asking smile

I have a question about the bribes - if you offer a bribe and it doesn't get taken in a certain month, is it appropriate to re-submit the same pet concept the next time that artist has an opening? Or would your previous offer be considered as a standing bribe?

Will there be any more opportunities for rainbow seeds?

That is fine! Colourists are only able to accept 2-3 bribes per month max and the slots being closed might not have been updated!

@ Rainbow seeds: Not for a while, the next time you see it will be an automated site feature for it, which will make things much much easier

@ Sabin: Sorry its 15, the old one is outdated!

Will the ability to sort pet by type return? D: I noticed it's been missing and that's usually my favorite sort-by method to see what I'm or other people might be missing! ;3;

Sorry, I'm new and a bit confused xD

Are people allowed to buy the special edition pets in the marketplace? Because the newbie guide said that special edition pets are for specific users only and cannot be traded/sold.

You can BUY/ be gifted/ adopt from the pound as many special edition pets as you'd like! HOWEVER you cannot sell them, that is the only rule sad (if they don't belong to you!)

@ Bilious: Sort by type is disabled due to an exploit in the scareon mimic vs. regular scareon code ;-; Sorry!

If a bribe is accepted are we still allowed to offer a different bribe/minipet idea within the same month or is there a limit to how many bribes a person can ever get via gaia?
