[Demi Got Tiger]

Well, the new 36 hours to death thing has gotten people spooked. What are the poor abandoned eggs going to do? Let's face it, many of them are not popular at all.

So, here is where we come in!

This is sort of like the Evil Project, on the DC Forums. We will adopt Shelter pokemon, hatch them, and then release them into the Shelter! People don't want to take the time to hatch eggs, but not many people are going to let a pokemon bouncing around the Shelter get away! Who knows, maybe someone will even be able to snag their dream pokemon, because of us!

The Goal

Our goal is to help clear out the Shelter of its unwanted eggs, and to help other users get already-hatched pokemon for their Dex. We want to help save the eggs from an untimely death!

How It Works

First, you sign up on our Savior List. Then, you nab as many eggs from the Shelter as you can or want. You hatch them, then release them into the Shelter for others to catch. You must post a link to the Pokémon you released. (It's preferred you post the egg first, then post again when you release) You will be given points for each Pokémon you do. We will have a Top Three Saviors list as well. Prizes will be given out, in the form trophy egg for your signature.

Each competition will begin on the ninth day of the month, and end on the last day of the month. There will be an eight-day space in between, where people can work on filling their dexes instead of the project. Prizes will be given out during this break period, and points will be reset. Becaus of that new members to the group can still earn their way to the top. (If you want, you can request that I save your total points to a Word Document each month, and add them together to tell you your total score overall.)

Rules

* The Pokemon you catch/hatch/release MUST be from the Shelter.

* They should be a common egg, or one that has been there for at least ten refreshes.

* When you release it, post here about what it was, and when you released it, so I can add you to the list.

* I will be checking around to make sure the eggs are not obtained before a certain date. Eggs must be obtained either the day the competition for the month begins, or the days afterwards. That means you can't catch eggs, raise them to maturity, and wait until the competition starts to release them and get ahead. To ensure you are getting them on the correct date, you must include a link to the pokemon, so that I can check it. The verifiers will be checking as well when this thread is more popular, and they will PM me if they spot any dishonesty.

* Feel free to give out clicks to the adopted eggs to help them on their way. You can tell their caretakers that you have done so if you want to. However, you must NOT ask for clicks for your eggs. That will result in the loss of points (and yes, it is possible to go into negatives).

Point System

Step count - Points given
1280 - 1
2560 - 2
3840 - 3
5120 - 5
6400 - 6
7680 - 7
8960 - 8
10240 - 9
20480 - 5
30720 - 3

(Legendary eggs and novelties don't need saving, so they are worth less points.)


The Verifers

People who can verify that you have adopted an egg from the Shelter at the appropriate time. They also record releases.

Q: What does HFR and HFK mean?
A: HFR = Hatched, Fed, and Released
HFK = Hatched, Fed, and Kept

Q: Why don't I see my name on the list?
A: Demi doesn't update constantly. Just wait a bit.

Q: I have X points. Why doesn't the first post say that?
A: Demi doesn't update constantly. Check back later.
Or
You forgot to post an egg to be verified, so it was never added to be counted.
Or
One of us missed the post with the egg. Go back and find it and show us.

Q: Do eggs picked up during the eight day rest period count for points?
A: No.

Q: When does the competition start?
A: The 9th day of the month.

Q: When does the competition end?
A: The last day of the month.

Q: Why am I not on the list? I signed up last month.
A: You have to re-sign up every month.

Q: Why do we have to re-sign up?
A: To clear out inactive members.

Q: What time does the contest run on?
A: Server time. Partly because server time = Demi time, and partly because everyone is on the same page that way.

Q: What if I hatch Pokemon before the contest ends, but can't release them for some reason?
A: If they are released before the final scores are posted (usually a few days after the contest ends) then they will count as full points. If they are not released before final scores are posted, they will be calculated as being half-points.

Q: What if I pick up an egg before the contest ends, but don't hatch it in time?
A: You will earn no points for those eggs.

Feel free to post comments, suggestions, a smiley face...anything you want! You can chat about the project as well.

I will go ahead and reserve this space as well. Perhaps the past winners will be posted here.

I wanna join I wanna join I wanna join!
I already started getting batches of eggs from the shelter yesterday and today's my second batch!

However, I do not, DO NOT abandon the Pokemon that come from the eggs we save.

[Gilda]

I wanna join~

I can also help with the banners/trophies if you want.

[Demi Got Tiger]

Gilda, that would be very much appreciated. Glad to see some life in my thread.

Pikachew, we haven't technically started yet. I want to start at like five members, because it would be too easy to start with three members; all three members would already hold the Top Three Saviors positions.

Do you hoard Shelter pokemon? Or are you working on your dex? Because mainly the eggs I want to save are ones that our workers already have, so they won't be tempted to keep them.

Although, I suppose that you could keep them, it would just take away like half the points you earn...since the goal is to save eggs and give them to new owners, at the same time. So you would still get points from doing so, but not as many as you would giving the pokemon to happy new owners.

I'll add you both to the list.

I want to join~

At the moment, I'm breeding Charmander eggies in hopes of a shiny, so I may not hatch and release as many as everyone esle. I will, though, release all my non shiny Charmanders

Also, a suggestion. for the point/competition thingy, the eggs should have to be obtained after a certain date (like they can't have been picked up before the day the points started counting) so there'll be no holding Pokemon to be released for extra points.

And question. If I pick up one of my own Charmander eggs from the shelter, hatch and release them, will they still give me points? XD

[Xdogking]

I want to help...

I won't be able to do this all of the Time, but I will devote 2 Party Spots for this Cause.

[Demi Got Tiger]

I will add you both to the list.

Lady Entei, that is a good idea. I will add it to the rules.

This makes five members, so I think we can start. Tomorrow sound good?

I will have to check all of the eggs though, to make sure people are honest, and that's a lot of work. Lady E, wanna be my personal helper? Since I know you from Shiro's thread. XD

Sure XD

I was wondering if you were going to check or not. Sadly, it usually isn't a good idea to leave it up to honesty. I can't remember if you metioned it in the rules or not, but it would help to have everyone include links to the Pokemon they're posting.

[Xdogking]

I agree with that.

I wasn't thinking and already got two eggs for this, but that's okay. I'll just hatch them so I have more space...lol.

[Rainyaviel]

Hmm... If my dex was more complete than it is right now I would join but... maybe in a few weeks or so after I've gotten most of my dex complete and some of my favorites from the lab already. I like having 1st gen pokemon to breed with
*adds thread to her favorites for later joining*

[Demi Got Tiger]

Alright Rainy (may I call you that?) just post when you want to join.

And I seem to have forgotten to include that, thanks for the heads-up, Lady.

[Mousekiro]

I'm in! Not so much for the competition as for my own satisfaction, but I'm in. The eggs I currently have in my signature are my own, but once they hatch (soon please?) I'll get started with this.
Edit: All three hatched. Here I go!

When you say "common" eggs, do you mean only the ones that have "common" in their dex listing? People won't always know what those are...

[Silversahde0]

I'll join!!! I never go to the lab when finding a egg and when I end up trying to find one I want I end up grabbing one I already have.

[Demi Got Tiger]

By "common," I mean eggs that seem to appear in the lab most often. Dratinis, although they are supposed to be rare, tend to stick in the Shelter because they take so long to hatch. So even though Dratini is supposed to be rare, you could still adopt one for this project (and make someone darn happy, too!).

I will add you two to the list.

Also, I have added something else to the "How It Works" section! Competitions will begin on the ninth day of each month, and end on the last day of the month. That means there will be eight days in between, where the competition will not be running. On those days, you can chillax and work on filling out your dex. The prizes will be given out then as well.

Since the competition has started today, remember to post all of the eggs you catch here for me and/or Lady Entei to check! Sorry, but we have to be careful.

Also, a new rule added: you can click each others eggs and tell each other you have done so, but you CANNOT ask for clicks for your eggs. If you do so, you will lose points, which may result in you even going into negatives, since we just started. So...don't do it. :p

[Demi Got Tiger]

I am going to double-post so that I can post the eggs as I receive them. Lady Entei, feel free to check my eggs. :p



I do realize there is a Zangoose egg in my party. I will release it, but it won't count in the competition, because it already had a crack in it and several clicks, so it wouldn't exactly be fair. The Zangoose is just an egg I could use for my dex, but still release it to make people happy. No points for me. :p

Added another egg, a Riolu egg. If it happens to be shiny or female, I will keep it, otherwise it is gonna be released.

Does it count as an egg today if we got it yesterday but hasn't hatched it yet?

No, sorry. It gives you an advantage if you got it yesterday, because it probably has clicks. That would be unfair to everyone else, who started today.

You are the one not releasing any pokemon, right?
