all done!

[Lectral]

LOL!!!

My betta, that I colored my CYO fishie after, his name is Poseidon XD

Nope, PI doesn't show seconds, and I know not everyone uses the same method for auctions there, but the "default" they ended up using was any post in the last minute - if you wanted to do it otherwise, you had to be sure to post it ahead of time, so everyone knew for sure.

I will send the SG right away

[Gene Pool]

*pokes gallery* Im wondering if its a bandwidth limit or something that makes it give me error 500 just when I need it most.

Going to update the events posts on the front page after this so every post has something active instead of finished ones.

Then.. going to start our mutation naming thread, where everyone who owns a mutation fish of the lowest ID for that mutation gets to name it. Funny thing is, some were traded off, and I did say up front that whoever owns it *when it hatches* is the one who gets to name it. Some of you are gonna be overwealmed with naming duty

[Kadana Sorano]

Congrats to auction winner(s), and to name winner. wait.. Poseidon.. that was me wasn't it? O.O *runs to double check*

[red_uni387]

Congrats to all the winners!

I shall be stalking to see what hatches~

[Gene Pool]

Hmm I dont know if I should adress the issue here or make its own thread...
With the CBD customs for fish for USD 3 way trades, some people have PM'd me wich concerns. I'm not really sure what I should do at this point.

For the record, I'm not taking back any of the fish, even if i never see my CBD's. So, there's no reason to do chargebacks, you're still getting your part of the deal. If SplitX for some reason can't come back and do the customs we were promised, I'm considering asking Fae on PI if she will honor them.

Either way, your fish aren't going anywhere.

[Silvanon]

You will get your CBD's.  I'm keeping in contact with Faerain to make sure that happens.  Either SplitX will come back and give people what's due, or else Fae and I will take care of it, and SplitX will face serious consequences.  We're giving SplitX a month.

[YourLoveOnly]

It has been announced on PI that splitty is not coming back anytime soon and she and her parents decided to take her internet away. =[

Part of me really feels for her, part of me is extremely unhappy because of the unfinished bussines she had promised to take care of before leaving.
