More Breeding Season Beta Testing

Okay guys...

I updated the description of the breeding process which can be found here on the wiki:
http://twilightdays.org/wyrmwiki/index. ... 2:_Process

I'd like you guys to check it out, go through the process, and see how easily it works for you.
Let me know if anything is confusing, if you have any trouble understanding anything, or if you have any questions.

The actual request form is open right now for TESTING only.
I will be removing any entries added and shutting it down again once I get some feedback.

It should be a little easier than last time. A few less things to fill out.
And all the links you need should be in the process guide.

NOTE: There is no 'I forgot my PIN#' link yet. That will be done before the start of the breeding season, I promise. All of the coding/database stuff having to do with the new PIN# verification process is being done by my wonderful code-guru mate, Mercutio, who is juggling school, but promises that he'll have the PIN# recovery done soon.

To answer some questions I imagine will come up --
1. If someone enters an incorrect PIN#, they will get a note from me informing them that their PIN# was incorrect, and prompting them to provide me with their correct PIN# so I can process their entry.
2. If anyone enters any other invalid information, I will contact them and ask for corrected information. Typos happen.
3. Only validated requests show up on the 'Pending Breedings' page, so things do not appear immediately, they only appear after I have checked them for accuracy.
4. We do not prompt people to approve breedings. That is up to the requester (you) to be the one to contact anyone that they need to make sure their breeding gets approved.

Coolies, went ahead and sent in a breeding approval just to try it out. ^_^ Nice and simple, and easy to understand!

No problem.
It's a good question, so I'm glad you caught that and I could clarify the write-up.

Really easy to understand and a lot less easier to do for people with multiple breedings. I say I like it! :D

Love it! It seems really awesome and I can't wait to see how it works in December's breeding season.

I just tried it out and it seems to be working just fine.

I know right now it's the job of the requesting breeder to make arrangements, but will the breeder of the Wyrms be alerted when there is a request pending for one of their Wyrms? Maybe I missed that. It would be awkward if (for example) someone requested Rii'Haku to breed with Antigone, but I had no idea the request was out there. I know of one breeding (OkamixXiu'Mei) where both clutchmates are going to people other than the Handlers... who would submit and approve that breeding?

EDIT: Whoops, read that again... it looks like either I or Xiu'Mei's handler would submit that breeding? What happens if we both do? Or if either (or both) of the prospective egg recipients submit the breeding?

Sorry if I'm being either uninformed or a nuisance. I just want this breeding program to be a success, no matter how many breeders and Wyrms there are! <3

(Oh, and at the bottom of the breeding blurb, it says, " Your new Wyrm arrives, ready for lots of love and a lifetime of adventures with you. Remember to registration them!" That should be, "Remember to register them!" :-)
