Site Update
This is the FINAL Prediction Pool Party news post! This is your 24 hour (give or take) notice that the Prediction Pool Party is coming to an end!
August 31st at 11:59pm: All Personal predictions must be uploaded. All commissions must be accepted and posted in the Pool Party Subforum. We will do NO more rolls for rares after this time. If you have not done your rare rolls before this date, you will not be able to get any so make sure you send in your PMs to the appropriate admin before this time.
September 30th at 11:59pm: All commissions should be done within 30 days of the commissioning time according to the ToS, unless another agreement has been made. However ALL Prediction Pool Party commissions must be done by this time. This includes site currency, usd, and prediction trades.
If your predictions are uploaded but not processed until after August 31st they will still be honored under PPP rules. Should you get a personal prediction rejected you are permitted to fix it and reupload it within 2 weeks of the rejection date.
Also make sure that your breeding has "Will have Predicts" checked and PPP in the notes! It may get assigned if you do not do both!
If you are waiting on a custom to come through to do your prediction (such as if it is one of the parents), screenshot your customs page so that it includes the Aywas clock in the top right + your custom waiting in queue. When you are able to submit the breeding include a link to this screenshot in your notes.
Speaking of customs, are you interested in helping out with Custom Crystal Check? We are looking for a couple helpers! If you are interested head on over to the Calculating Custom Percentages KB Article and give it a look over. We require our helpers to already have previous knowledge regarding how to calculate percentages and will only help to refine your knowledge.
If you are interested in trying our super special test(s) to see if you got what it takes send a PM to me! Kaiyo #489 and I will issue it to you and see if you need to brush up on your calculations or if you are good enough for the next steps~ As a reminder, these tests must be manually checked, you are not authorized to use other pre-created programs that calculate the percentage.
And a small note about Commission Fees. We have several options for paying them, if you don't want to pay the USD portion back. If you are on other teams, breeding teams or panel teams, you can get your fees subtracted from your pay.
If you owe but would rather do a few breedings in place of payment, just contact whichever Admin that runs the coin you want to do and we can work something out. We're actually really flexible with how these payments are handled :3
Calling all GP artists!
Would you like to be part of the design teams? We're looking for some artists who are willing to be part of the SCC, GCC, and MDT teams with GP or Artist credit as payment. If you're interested, please go to the SCC, GCC or MDT pages to apply.
Speaking of GP, we're also going to be making changes to the bonus payout for GCC tickets. Starting immediately, bonus for USD artists will now be 20GP per every five designs completed. The bonus for GP and credit artists will be 50gp per every 5 designs completed. We understand the change is sudden, but we're working on ways to better balance the site and improve our economy.
If you are currently a member of any of the above teams and would like to accept GP or Artist credit as payment, please let Kaiyo (#489) or Nemesis Valkyrie (#476) know.

Who do we contact if we received the wrong form of payment for GCC? (had USD selected and always have and made no arrangements to take GP and was paid GP)

birdyj (#1164) that would be Nem, however you were not wrongfully paid. As per the news post we are just now changing the bonus which means you were eiligible for the 50gp bonus. As always the bonus comes before the pay since the pay is handled through PayPal.

I's slightly confused; does the September deadline also apply to those of us waiting for PPP commissions to come through?
As in, I submitted a breeding earlier this August, and am just waiting on the predict babies to be finished. Does this mean I can still submit them under the PPP rules until Sept. 30th?

Whirlybird (#57401) That would be considered a commission, you commissioned your artist so they have 30 days from the commission date to get you the design unless there is another agreement made, however all commissions must be done by sept 30th
Hikaru (#15577) After all of them, since the goal of the raffle was to help get people to do commissions too

Awesome thanks!
What about when half of predicts for a breeding are by us but the other half commissioned? Should we upload our half today and leave a note that we're waiting for commissioned babies?

I still don't know how prediction parties work.
