I have too many birds, I'm getting confused.
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.
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!
Okay.
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!![]()

lol yea right... XD mm

hehe. yea im your money maker... or was![]()
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.![]()

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.![]()

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