A Question About Lizard-Tails

[Gosh]

Well, some people would want to know for sure how many kits they got, even if it meant paying more, and some people would rather gamble to see if they would get several kits with the standard price.

[duckyaisha]

Ah, Ten you changed the price! I think violet eyes are as sue-ish as a white cat with blue eyes that can hear fine, so their having a similar price is good.
I think the price for deciding the number of kits should be higher than the price for randomly picking. After all, cats can't actually decide how many kits they get.

However, I have one last problem. You say classic tabbies are the rarest, however the site about tabby types that you can link to in the stats say otherwise. Here's information from www.messybeast.com/spotted-cats.html

---X---
"The two most common tabby patterns are "mackerel tabby" and "classic tabby" (blotched tabby, oyster tabby). These two patterns are common in random-breeding pet and feral populations."
---X---

It says that classic and mackerel tabbies are the most common, yet you say that they are the rarest.
It also says that they are common in pet and feral populations.

[Ten]

orly? Hm. That's strange.

"yet you say that they are the rarest."
--x
I got my information from a different site, but after comparing them, Messybeast looks more accurate.

-edits prices again-

So I think I'll go with one overall price for a litter with a random number of kits.
How does... 1,000 LTs sound? I want cats to know each other well before becoming mates, so that requires a lot of posts. And yeah, I know that's not realistic.

[duckyaisha]

Ten.
I am mad.
But I understand why you made the spotted tabby more expensive- except now the goal seems unnatainable! *sobs in pity corner*
Don't think I don't agree with the prices, because I do. But I'm still mad.

[Ten]

"Ten.
I am mad."

D: ?

"But I understand why you made the spotted tabby more expensive-"
--x

You don't think it's unreasonable, then?

"except now the goal seems unnatainable!"
--x

Pfft, LTs are easy to earn.

[duckyaisha]

Ten, you barely have 1,000 lizard-tails. And if Classic tabbies are one of the most common, shouldn't they be almost as cheap as patched tabbies?
I think the classic and patched tabby should be 250 LTs and the Spotted 500. I know it's rarer, but when it's a thousand, you're saying that a spotted tabby is twice as rare as odd colored eyes.

[Ten]

"Ten, you barely have 1,000 lizard-tails."

At the moment, sure.

"And if Classic tabbies are one of the most common, shouldn't they be almost as cheap as patched tabbies?"
--
I'll make 'em cheaper, but not free.

"when it's a thousand, you're saying that a spotted tabby is twice as rare as odd colored eyes."

Is it not?

-goes to research-

cat-chitchat.pictures-of-cats.org/2008/02/odd-eyed-cats.html

Odd eyes don't seem to be all that rare. As long as the cat has some amount of white fur, there's a fair chance of it having odd eyes.

[duckyaisha]

I don't want them to be free, but thanks for making them cheaper.

Oh, I guess I was under the impression that odd-eyed cats were as rare as odd eyed humans. *shrugs* Well, guess I learned something new.
