Site Update
Hello everyone, I hope you've been having a fantastic January so far!
I'm here to announce a small change to Alidae Egg and Transitional Fossil Egg predictions.
Previously, users could submit a prediction and the artist of the prediction could be paid a set amount of USD through the site. Unfortunately, due to the amount of these items in circulation, and the amount of ways to obtain them, this unfortunately isn't a sustainable option for the site any longer.
We have removed the site-paid USD for Alidae Egg and Transitional Fossil Egg predictions. In place of that, we are allowing Alidae Egg and Transitional Fossil Egg predictions to be commissioned with no GP or USD cap from here on out.
Artists can also opt to receive a payment of 60 Credit for a TFE or Alidae prediction, this has been added to the Knowledge Base Article for those items.
We realize that this is likely not going to be a popular decision, but after looking at site finances and the amounts of these items in circulation it is not a financially viable option for us at this time.
Please stay tuned for the Seasonal Shop opening later today!

Like I have said multiple times before, there will be absolutely no USD payouts for either of these items unless on-site proof is provided that you have commissioned another artist before this news post. Submission date of the breeding does not matter, as this chance is not retroactive.

Is this affecting the payout for babies done by the site team? Or just for predictions?

(Sorry if the answer is an obvious "no" I just want to be 100% sure)

Just predictions, payout for babies done by the site team hasn't changed.

I'm sorry if I'm annoying you Kita, I really don't mean to with these questions, but I think I'm just confused because you say it's NOT retroactive, while what you explain to me means it IS retroactive? :o I'm just really sad because I invested my Aywas efforts in these for some extra pocket money when I would need it.
But, long story short, no grace period unless you have proof of ANOTHER artist commissioned before this date? No matter how long your breeding has been in queue? :(

This was supposed to be used to pay other artists, not yourself. Lucky youre not banned for exploiting this. Its not retroactive, you just gave to prove you commissioned another artist thru this site.

Nice! I didn't even know this was a thing, but I'm cool with anything that helps Aywas's budget. -D

You are correct, there is no grace period unless you have proof of another artist commissioned before this date.

I think this is a great change to help the site be more sustainable! (I didn't even know this was a thing before honestly.)
