~*~*PoultryLand IS BACK*~*~

I have too many birds, I'm getting confused. :p I think I might sell one of the Malays. The orange one turned out somewhat shady-looking, lol.
 
humph. your birds only won because I procrastinated by a few minutes in adding my others. :smack

You will not be able to beat mine, though. My birds have over 4 generations of champion blood in them and I has ways of even improving upon that! :old

Okay. :p

Y'know, if there aren't more all-arounders soon, I'm gonna have to get into those too. Despite what I said a couple of days ago on not entering those sorts of contests, I just can't survive on 31 SP's an hour! And even less so now that everyone got 80k more! :th
:lau

lol yea right... XD mm

lol


hehe. yea im your money maker... or was :lau

Hey, when your best birds and beating your other birds with the same stats, then you can say 'yea, right' but right now, my birds are best. :tongue


*sigh*
 
Hey Spock, seeing as you seem to be pretty knowledgable on the topic, how is it that placings in contests are actually decided? Because even birds with lower stats and the same inbreeding sometimes come first.

Also, how come some birds I see around the place have managed to top the stat cap? I don't want to try, stat increasing is such a chore and I've done enough of it for the time being. I'm just curious. :p

Honestly, I have no idea. At first I thought it was due to certain contests only using certain stats, then relying on inbreeding. But once I saw that there was only one consistent winner in contests of 3 straight-65 birds, that all went down the drain. Starting to think genetics have more to do with things than colors and starting stats. :/

Sorry, but keeping that secret is the only way I can keep my birds on top. :oops:

That's interesting. I suspect it might just be down to chance; perhaps each bird gets a mean score for a certain type of contest depending on stats and inbreeding, but it's only a mean so the actual value can wave around a bit like in statistics. Standard deviations and everything. :p I remember once on the old PL my 50% inbred bird won a contest against lots of 0%s... three standard deviations...

Yeah okay, I figured as much. :p But great job with managing to figure out some way to surpass that rule.

I'm probably going to sell some birds. Feel free to snap them up. I really shouldn't be playing PL but I want to keep some of my favourites...

oh, really? hm.. Then that sounds like it must be it. :p

Thanks.

Both Maylays? :eek: But.... *sigh* You do realize playing Pokemon is no more constructive than PL, right? :caf Well, whatever you're up to, I'll take care of them and Nutty. ._.

That's right, I didn't really like how they turned out, the colours were so very... extravagant... Thanks for that, it's good to know they'll be put to fine use elsewhere.

Well I am quite serious about my "pokemon game" (I have been creating, and not playing, one :old) because I am also of the opinion that one must be serious about something if one wants to have any amusement in life, and being an absolutely trivial sort of person I believe I may just be serious about everything...

Which is exactly why I feel I must curtail my time on Poultryland, because whilst my "Pokemon game" (couldn't be further removed from the truth these days :lau) forces me to mobilise my brain cells to think up nice insulting dialogues between politicians, much of what I do on PL, while interesting, is not particularly conducive to maintaining an active train of thought.

Especially when entering 48 contests separately or increasing stats by the hundreds.

Oh, and in case it didn't come through in that post, which it probably didn't, I may have been studying rather more than I have been doing anything trivial these past few days. It may not seem like it because it also may not be true... Well, I must profess that the educational system these days is no longer very adept at not accomplishing anything, seeing as I appear to have been irreversably converted into a somewhat cultured person (don't believe it for a second) who quotes plays for fun and has utmost trouble preserving a dignified silence when it would be the right time to ascertain that it is nothing that I know... my name must be in reality a little less interesting than Fierlin, and not of the sort to inspire particular confidence in me as a person, and hopefully the exotic fruit of ignorance shall not be handled any time in the near future with regards to this area. Perhaps I should write down this utterly ridiculous post in my diary, for it is always desirable to have something sensational to read when waiting for the bus. Either way a post like this, whether it has handles or not, must surely always be found on the unfashionable side of the street of society, which is not so much of a problem as both the location and the fashion can be fixed at any time, regardless.

However, I do very much like my German. :p
