Oh goodness, I rarely feel strongly about polls, but the last thing we need is more applicator anything! Breed only marks are what makes the site fun!
Also, making these covered marks applicable would be a slap in the face for all the characters who have worked so hard on their projects. I would hate to see breed only marks transitioning to applicators become a trend on the site.
I really, really hope the team thinks strongly about making changes like this.

Even though the poll says otherwise, I see the majority of the people speaking out saying "no applicators"

I think most serious players are against more applicators... There's no challenge in it!

I think everyone is entitled to their own opinion and allowed to play Lioden as they please, the way they enjoy it! You want to breed for marks, go 'head, there are still various other breed-only marks, and who is to say that staff won't release future marks that ya'll might like even better that are breed-only? But some people enjoy working to gather event currency to get applicators that way, because they can't afford to purchase GB in the first place. I like dolling up my lions, and I'm sure others feel the same. I can't afford to buy GB, or lions with quad-celest marks. I like how I play: I breed for marks and bases, but I also love to just *apply* them (let me be the middle man) by grinding through the events by patiently waiting for my energy to refresh. No shame in that. I'm sure ya'll love how you play as well. Not one (or multiple) person(s) can say "this is how Lioden should be played".

In the meantime, L-O-V-E the comic! And that raffle lady, hopefully my luck will finally come through.

It’s not about being able to buy things or wanting different breed only markings. It’s not about thinking the game should be played one way or another. It’s about making things that were once breed only into things that can be added onto anything with zero RNG luck or breeding effort (which people have already put in).

I just don’t want the July markings, which have been breed only for YEARS, to become worthless with the click of a button. How would you feel if you worked hard for a nice combo base king (which is a thing only obtained through breeding), and then staff decides to release combo bases as applicators?

I just got my king how I want him, spent probably a couple thousand GB at it, spent 3 years at it, and now y'all are suggesting making it so that people can have kings just like him without putting in any effort. Just slap markings on a lion. I'm heartbroken that this was even suggested.

I've worked so hard on this, to get a full skyward king with the marks that I want, where I want. I feel like the effort I've put into this game will be made into a huge waste of time. I feel like the thing that I was enjoying, working towards, getting online for every day, setting as my goal for so long, was a big lie. I feel like my accomplishment is being stolen, like the reward for my continued efforts is being snatched out from under me, mere DAYS after I've managed to reach the end of the project goal.

I know from past experience that there will be absolutely no compensation for players that have worked on projects related to these markings. They'll be told to suck it up. That the game doesn't owe them their accomplishment, the fruits of their hard work and patience, or the continued value of something that was expected to retain that value as a "breed only" feature. The game can fuck them any way it likes, because of a popular vote to hand their hard work over to everyone for nothing.

That's just horrible. This is so wrong to implement, for the many, many others and myself who've had projects revolving around these bases and markings.

I am strongly against them being added in as applicators. Please do not do this, for your loyal players who've been around for years and who've strove for these bases and markings on their lions. Don't take another old, valuable, worthwhile goal, and make it trash.

Applicators are fun in the beginning but they quickly get old. If those that like them really want new marking applicators then make them new marks. Why reduce the amount of breed only marks? Isn’t this what the game is about? What is the point of having a king to stud out if there’s many just like it? How BORING! What is the point of even playing?

I have spent over a year trying to breed a 10 July marking king. I'm at 9 marking now. Do you know how upset I would be if it can soon be easily achieved by simply using applicators? Is like a few years down the road changing breed only and combo bases into applicator bases simply because it's been out for a few years now. Please don't change the nature of markings. If it was originally released as breed only, please keep it as breed only. It's a bad precedent to set. Thanks for reading.
