I've thought some more about this and I'm wondering if I have got the rules wrong. I've think I've been too busy paying attention to which pledges have been paid (or not paid) and trying to mark them correctly in the table.
Rysaroni was declared the winner before she bred her Lovesick. And I assume that usually the contest stops at that point - as soon as someone is declared the winner?
lisgie , I'm very sorry if you feel that I have 'made' you pay Rysaroni for 12th plus Pixie (Tuesday). It was a misunderstanding on my part and getting carried away with everyone managing to breed Lovesick.
belorga - this is for you too. I'm sorry if you also felt obliged to pay Rysaroni for 12th when it wouldn't usually be the case.
As the winner, should Rysaroni's name and pledges stay on the winners side of the table as well? Or doesn't it really matter? I'm happy to move her back.
The contest ending is a grey area we always struggle with, and is a more personal thing that Shane let people decide on their own if they wanted to pay pledges past someone being declared the winner. I personally decided to pay 12 and don’t feel you ‘made’ me, you don’t need to apologize. I always pay for all Pixie breeds, first or 3 whatever. Sometimes people will still pay twins until the limited leaves.
The mind blowing one is that the last person is actually declared the winner when they are the only one left. Which means that they can then purchase the dragon and still be considered the winner.
The thing to stress is that it is just for fun and to support each other breeding. Don’t stress about it, there are way to many things to stress on.
MinyaZ, thanks for checking in. Don't worry, I didn't feel under pressure to pay at all, I was happy to do so. It was unusual but great that everyone bred Lovesick. Thanks again for managing the contest.
