Go Fund Euclid
I, the ever amazing and one TRUE scientist of Subeta, have been having success after success recently. Much better than that other so-called scientist who hasn’t had a successful result in YEARS. I’ve been working on some equations, and I theorize that, based on the results of the experiment-turned-Qrykee, I will be able to develop one of my experiments into a full-fledged pet species. Yes, yes, I know it was only possible with the Qrykee due to its connection to the Sewer Beast and evolutionary form yadda yadda but they don’t call me a genius for nothing! I’ve been studying the DNA, and I think it could work. As a matter of fact, I've already picked out the 5 experiments I believe it has the biggest potential to work on.
But as always, I need funding to proceed! I can’t just zap sP, you know. Well, I know I can zap certain things INTO sP but I’d have to get hold of those things first, which costs sP, and to be quite honest I’ve turned too many things into dust on my quest to fund myself. So I’ve decided to set this up as a kind of poll, except you donate for the experiment you most would like to see made into a full pet!
So come visit me here, and choose the experiment you most desire. You have until 11:59PM on July 23rd to cast your vote!

My favorite experiment has always been #0507 so I'm pretty bummed not to see it on the list, but I still L O V E this idea! I'm having trouble deciding, it's so hard! It's also super interesting to see there are just as many people saying "I love this experiment so I want to see it as a pet!" than people who are saying "I love this experiment so I want it to remain exclusive!"

I have always wanted a qilin pet on a petsite : D it's got a peacock tail which is weird but better than no qilin.
The other two spiky pets are cute too

This is pretty cool. I'm kinda sad that none of my favorite experiments were chosen, though.

I would love to see the sandcat become some kinda of redraw colour in the future. The idea of a pet disintegrating into sand....really cool.
Also, gotta agree, we need that rift redraw colour too.
The pangolin is way too boring imo, and while I like peacock-horse, it's way too complex of a design; we already have enough complex-designed pets as of late (IE, Zentu). Honestly the squid and blob stand the best chances. I like the endless possibilities for the blob because it is simplistic to work off of, while the squid would fill more of the marine life we don't have.

Omg Im drooling at that idea. Im hoping that maybe each land in subeta gets one. Though idk where rift would be from. But I would love some sort of spirit from shengui, and we already have specific species from almost all other continents (or idk what we call them on subeta) so saheric would be amazing as a next step. Sandy egyptian mummy statues just sounds amazeballs.

I voted for the blob, 5162. I'd love to see how they do the different colours. I'd imagine the galactic one being a shooting star or something adorable. And the glade being a seed or something? I think it has the potential to be really really cute.

One possible way of solving it would be to have two winners: the pet that gets the most unique votes, and the pet that gets the highest amount of sp donated. (If they're the same after all, then we'd end up with just the one pet, which is all we'd originally been promised anyway.) But if the totals were actually visible, there'd be a reason to start spending more money on the pet you really really want to make it into more of that "competition" people seem to be into, instead of a weirdly expensive guessing game/lottery.

@Prophet I have 41 pets and an open pet slot I'm waiting to use until the right pet comes along. Pets are the part of the site that's kept me here for all these (nearly 11?) years. So no, I may not play exactly like you do, but I'm not inactive? And yes, I've been on this site a long, long time. I happen to save my sp because I can spend a LOT of it very quickly once I start doing things like buying up pet slots or potions - which I'm currently also waiting on, because I tend to make new pets in batches, and I like to see what's on the horizon before I make decisions. I have no idea how criticizing my activity on the site is helpful to your argument in any way, but since you asked, that's my story. I wasn't comparing an online game economy with real world elections; like @Topher said, it was a commentary on voting being kind of meaningless at the end of the day if you're not rich enough. It leaves a bad taste in my mouth, and it made me think of the thing that I use sites like Subeta to escape from - the reality in which popular votes apparently don't win elections and your voice doesn't matter if you don't have enough money to throw behind it. I said in a previous comment that I understand sp sinks and participated in the last one without complaint. There are ways to do it. I just don't think this scenario is a particularly good one. I want the squid or the peacock to win, but I don't think my vote should be the one that wins unless the majority of people here agree. I DO think that it's going to majorly suck if the scenario Topher outlined happens, and a less popular pet wins because a smaller number of people were bored or determined enough to spend all their time clicking a button. I've been here for plenty of events...I know what people on this site are like. They WILL throw millions down the sink to win something. Heck, there are plenty of people in the comments saying they're planning to spend millions voting, so I don't see how it's a particularly far-fetched concept.

Topher
@ Sputnik It might all even out in the end, yeah. In my example, I used a pretty simplified breakdown of sp/votes. Obviously I have no insight into how the actual votes look so far, and there's still a lot of time for people to contribute. All I know is that from my time on subeta, I've learned there are a couple things at play here that I haven't seen on other similar sites: 1) Some users are very, very, very rich. Like, billionaire rich. And 2) Some users are very, very dedicated to the site and WOULD spend their whole day clicking a button if it meant getting their way. Neither of those things are necessarily bad, but combined they make for an interesting situation. Maybe the poll will be close, maybe it won't. Who knows! But there's potential for a small group of people to control the result in a significant way, and I think that's what some of us are unsure about. Of course, if you spend a lot of time and money on something, you expect to be rewarded in some way. That's fair. Sometimes it's hard to shake the "majority rules" mentality, though!

^_^ Oh! This is so exciting! But which one should I choose? I can imagine them with the different pet colors.... ooh! Which one..?

Lea
To be honest, I'm not really personally invested in changing more experiments into pets while there are so many pets that still need colors finished or revamped... I do understand that the different species have individual artists that may or may not have time to do a lot of pet art given how long it must take... that said, though, the zentu still only seems to have one redrawn color, and the qyrkee hasn't gotten any new redrawn colors since it was made into a pet, so I hope that where I'm coming from is understandable!
I feel like the sloth-pangolin-thing and squid make the most sense from a diversity standpoint, though the deer-peacock also would make a very nice pet! Even if I do sort of hope that existing pets will take priority over making more experiments into pets, I do like that this is an option now. A lot of experiments are really beloved and have plenty of potential as a pet species because they'd actually work as a species, they don't really look like a science experiment compared to the rest of the Subeta species. I really hope that this is used with some of the experiments that add more diversity to the pet species!

@Topher
But it kinda evens out in the end?
Lets say I donate 10 million sp to the blob, it isn't a popular and wanted zapper pet nor is it a popular choice in this poll.
If 10 people, who are invested in this event, give 1 million sp to one of the most popular pets, example: the squid, then really, it's not a game changer on my part, now is it?
Also, kudos to the madman who actually is patient enough to donate 100 million of their hard earned sp on this poll by clicking on that donate button 2000 times for a few hours, that's dedication.
It's not a regular vote, it's a competitive one, the goal is to delete a good portion of subeta points from the site.
If the majority wants something really badly, they will most likely get it.

As much as I like the peacock, I want the cat. Yeah, there's already cat species, but here's the problem: they're all either really cutesy(feli, clawsion) or more regal(archan, tigrean). There's exceptions with certain colors, sure, but sometimes the color itself doesn't always work with a character. The 870 has a more 'in between' look, I think. Plus, the stone could totally be ice for glacier, moss for glade, fire for reborn, etc. :D

Topher
@Prophet At the risk of taking this too seriously: I think the point @bonecrivain was making is that it doesn't feel good to know that some votes are worth more than others. We'd all like to believe the old adage that "every vote counts" but when the voting system is set up like this, that clearly isn't the case. If one person donates 100 million to a pet and 1000 people donate 50k to another pet, it doesn't seem right that the first pet wins. If you just look at total money donated, it's a 2:1 landslide, but the result clearly isn't what the majority of users want. That doesn't feel like a fair system, particularly because the wealth disparity that created the situation is a result of something largely out of the users' control (like you said, subeta's economy is busted in a way that some users are able to exploit). While clearly not exactly the same, I don't think the comparison to the electoral college is that far-fetched. Sometimes it's necessary (or just fun) to get creative with user participation methods, but sometimes the simplest solution (aka one person, one vote) is the best. =)
Glad to see there's so much love for the squid! I already own a chibi one and would certainly be interested to see others. Were it not one of the options, my vote would have been for the peacock thing, but our non-quadruped pet options feel kinda limited so squid it is!

I still keep coming back here because I just want it so much.
We have no squids, no octopus, no cuttlefish, nothing for pets. Like so many others mentioned I have several OCs for these squid pets and I would love for it to win. We already have an insane amount of cats, foxes, equines, birds, etc. Where is the marine life love?
I had to do a combination of a fan pet with an OC in order to kind of make this a realization for me. While I love the blob and only donated a minimal amount towards the cause, the squid is the best option I think for a new species unlike any other. Either that or the sloth. To me I feel like the blob was something of science gone wrong and he got zapped into a pile of sludge. The idea is cute, but to try and expand upon that when we have two other species that have yet to be touched?
All of these ideas are potentially cool, but I think we should be expanding more on pet species we don't have yet. My actual full two-cents on this other than, "LOL OMG FANGIRL SERVICE OUTLAW STAR IS NOW RED."

Holy crap, y'all are geniuses. I never considered the #870 as a pet color. YES. YES. YES. Someone on the Subeta Team read this and make it happen!
Also, then if they wanted to, they could make a common version of #870 and release it like the Qrykee.
And while we're at it....
....as a pet color, please? I'm begging you. ;)

As a Tigrean collector, I cheated myself to owning a 870 experiment as long as its name was relevant to being a 'fake' Tigrean trying to fit in. Haven't done anything with that pet yet, and now I'm kinda glad, because if it wins and becomes its own species, I can't really play that 'fake Tigrean' card anymore with it.
I'm glad you guys are expanding some experiments as pets, but I really hope you don't get carried away with it.

@bonecrivain not sure if you're just inactive but you seem to be in here for like 10 years. Subeta's got a problem with economy: the huge, huge amount of sP running in it. And since staff actually cares to make a game worth playing (unlike neopets for example) they try to intervene into the economy in an attempt to fix this. However, asSpeiro pointed out, voting for more than one pet is basically just throwing your sP away since only one might win.
Comparing an online game economy measure with the US elections isn't the best example you could get imo.

I DON'T KNOW, I DON'T KNOW. On the one hand, the creative color ideas for the blob are ENDLESS (I imagine a darkmatter blob that's literally a darkmatter, an adorable hill with eyes for glade, an adorable fireball with eyes for reborn (or a campfire?), either slime or silly puddy/play-doh for nostalgic, perhaps a pile of sparkly stardust for galactic??...), but then could you imagine the epicness that would be peacockpony in all the different colors??? but, also SQUIDS..........

I agree with some others, while I love the peacock we do have many equine ish pets. None are like the squid, we have a fish and a sea monster? But nothing of this cephalopod sort. Though the other I think is creative is the pangolin. Both would look great in other colours and poses.
As much as I like the cat/rock guy I just cant picture him being very easy to do in recolours?
And the blob is super funny and all but I see that being more tough as well as not as likely to be used as a squid bro. But thats just my dumb thoughts on it. Either way this is a really cool idea. Im curious to see what comes of it.

Personally, if you wanted to have a single winner, I think we should have been allowed to only vote for one pet, period.
All SP used on other options than your first choice might as well be wasted, since only one will win in the end.
Really, a 3 out of these 5 would have been better, because it would have allowed people to pick a 1st choice and a 2nd choice. But the way it's designed now doesn't make it worthwhile to use money on several pets.

@pythonesque I didn't have any problem with the last time they did it, because we were going to get all those features eventually. So an sp sink made sense and didn't really leave anyone out. This, though? This is a single permanent pet choice that isn't going to be voted in by popularity, but by the people who're willing to throw millions of sp at it. I still voted, but I'm not a fan of using this new pay-to-vote method for things that actually impact all the users on the site.

I'm not 100% a fan of any of the choices.. though I do like #0101 because it kind of looks like it's based off of a pangolin..

@bonecrivain I think it's a sP sink, which I think is fairly common with websites that have forms of currency. Keeps sP from being overly inflated.
Not saying I want to see this system of voting all the time, but I don't think it's a horrible tactic.

Not a fan of this new vote-with-your-money method. It feels too much like the current state of elections in the US; it's ridiculously unfair when there are going to be people throwing millions at a pet and tipping it over the edge. What happened to one person one vote?

Ooh. I hope the peacock wins, or maybe the squid just because it's colorful and we don't have a squid pet.

there doesn't need to be another cat with horns or bird thing and i (personally) have 0 interest in the pangolin (it's very. round and cutesy, which is not my cup of tea) so i'm hoping for one of the latter two !!
just.... anything but another cutesy house pet.....

It may have taken the goshdarned LONGEST TIME to get it (my HP-themed OC bby Alisheana)...but now I'm imagining the full colour range on this particular experiment pet and I desire...no NEED LIKE NEVER BEFORE...an Angelic or DarkMatter #0101 ;0;!
The Peagryph (#2759) is my second fave from these five and if this one becomes a full pet instead, I will not be disappointed either. I'm just envisioning a Hydragryph here with all those eye-tails...omigosh yesplz <3

I have tried for months to zap some of my pets into experiments I really wanted and all the zapped did was take my tokens and feed my pet :).
Problem is I keep my pets in the hotel so having the zapper feed and or play with my pet for me doesn't do me any good...
Being a fan of all these experiment pets in the news post and since I can't say no to a cute face what can I do *gives into the cuteness of the experiment pets* ^_^
I will do what I can to help you with the experiment pet funding :heart:.

Can we have more than one winner if the votes are close enough?! ?My vote is a toss up between #0101 & #870! I can't decide! ??? Don't care for the slime ball, though. Cute, but no!

can we get text or dropdown boxes for more amounts? I'd really like to drop my million on the precious slimeball and be done rather than click a bunch of times.

The experiments #625 or #911 would have been awesome, but I'm throwing my sp at #0101 because it is the most pet like and it looks the least, accidental, for lack of a better word.

TaleSpin
Ahhh this is awesome! I wish the list included #104 and #333 but as it is I'm really torn between #0101 and #870. Gah, but #2759 is also lovely and ANY of them would be a welcome addition to the pet community. It'll be fun to see which experiment wins! *throws money at favorites*

I truly wish experiment #8001 was on that list. I would give so much sP for that one to be a main pet. But I'm biased, I want all the reptilian based ones to be pets.

Really any of these would not be a disappointment.
But if it's the blob, i'm hoping for a galactic meteor/asteroid and sweetheart strawberry bonbon.
Regardless of outcome, i'll be filling that extra pet slot with... whatever it is.
Thanks so much for this.

As much as I love the peacock itd be most amazing to see my squid in many colours/poses, or the pangolin. So I voted a bit for those two and once on peacock.
Either way I think the outcome will be awesome.

I'm a little conflicted about this because I have a 2759 and it took a LOT of zapping and luck to finally get it. Both 2759 and 870 are my favorite experiments so if either of them wins this I think I'd be bummed about it just because it took so long for me to get.
But on the other hand....potions colors.
I'm conflicted, send help.

@Runes.
Sigh, I know how you feel.
Zapping, miracle potion IIs (used one very recently on Snufkin) and millions of Sp to get the experiment pets for their unique designs.
I seriously hope the mentality isn't like with the wedding donations, where, surprise, every pet will me made to a regular one in the end- diminishes the purpose of getting experiment pets tbh.

Honestly, it would probably encourage me to dump a lot more sP in to this if I could see the results? Like ... if my squid isn't close to winning, I'd rather keep my pixel currency, but if I can see how it ranks, if I can see how close it is, I'd dump a lot more, which is, obviously, the goal

It's probably going to be like the teahouse/garden/centropolis thing and we will get ALL OF THEM, just in different priorities brackets.

Someone should add a text box so we can type in an sP value. I am willing to donate a bunch of sP since I don't play much anymore, and would rather it went back into..the ether? since staff are always about finding new ways to sink sP. I like this idea a lot, but clicking over and over again is a pain in the butt!

@Amber Thanks for addressing my comment! I understand, it just also kind of rubs me the wrong way perhaps *because* there is only one winner (NOT that I even want there to be more than one here). I do know it's not necessarily easy to integrate currency sinks gracefully into a game, and there will always be people who just didn't like it no matter what you do. So my goal is/was not just to blindly criticize or assert that a poorly thought out choice was made here.
In the interest of not just being a naysayer: Although there is not, that I have observed in any game in my life, any way around the fact that people with more time to play can amass more currency and thus have a bigger impact on competitions, there's generally something rewarding for me about the "fight", regardless of outcome. For instance, my team lost REALLY badly in the snowman building competition (which was sort of like a voting process I suppose), but I had genuine fun participating in that mini event. I'm not asking for everything to be that work-heavy for staff, mind you, I just wanted to provide a point of contrast.

For everyone's consideration, who are?/is? NOT spending money on the blob...Quote by Solsticesprite:
Does this mean my dream of a hydrus sand castle #5162 might actually come true? Because that would be the best thing ever.
I think it would be hilarious if there was no colorfill-only version of the 5162 since it is a blob and so morphable. It may take years for it to get all the colors because of this but it'd be fun.
A glacier 5162 would be a novelty ice cube. A galactic one would be indistinguishable from the cloud it's in. A Nostalgic one would be a tub of goo TM or just a lump of coal. A gold one would be a cube of pyrite. A cream one would be an aggie marble. A vibrant one would look like an oil slick.

Seriously. Throw your money at the 5162. It's a vote for possibilities.

@Lexigraph I think it's fine since we're having this open for quite a while. There's plenty of time for users to play games, do quests, restock, etc to make sP to donate to their favorite pet(s). What we saw with the charities during the wedding, people donated to each one pretty evenly tbh. This is a little different since there is only one winner, unlike the charities.

Vinushka
Much as i love the others--plus how much easier it would make my acquiring #3485 for myself--i'll have to go with #0101. It clearly fits in best with the other standard pets. I'll just have to keep zapping for my cephalopod.

Lexigraph
Voted for 0101 ans 3485, would be happy to see any of them from this list make the jump to full species except probably the slime because, well... I know the art would be amazing and I am SURE a lot of the special colors would make me laugh or get impressed with the materials they chose, etc. Frankly the nostalgia choices alone (gack in a plastic jar pls!) would practically justify it all by itself.
But it IS a blob with eyeballs and I'd be sad to see that get the full species treatment over the others here.
I can't say I like this trend of using polls as sP sinks, though, especially when we can vote as much as we want? Yeah I get that the site always, always needs a bottomless pit to throw our absurd amount of sP into, but why should anyone potentially be able to strongarm the results into what they want with millions of sP?
( P.S. If Euclid is open to bribes might I suggest the 84 or 886 as just the best, honestly)

Experiment #870 the sand cat is one of my favourite experiments. However I would be voting for the experiment #0101 the pangolin sloth. I think it would be the most fitting to be a full pet species with different common and potion colors and would also fit among other pet species with it's kind of gentle expression and appearance. It's true we don't have peacock, squid or "goo" based pet species and as much as I love my sand cat, I feel like these experiments are way too complex and would be more fitting to be what they already are, experiment pets. Also I think that's the point of experiment pets to be able to have more complex designs since they only have couple of different art works (common, chibi, scribble) each and don't have dozens of different pet colors to be drawn. I think they're really beautiful and already work perfectly on their own! :heart:
