So today I ran into an issue with someone withdrawing a stud request after I burned all my energy. Really wanting to help this person, I grabbed an energy boost, and -poof- the request was gone. I know this is a trick of the trade for some, but it's pretty shady, so here's what I propose.

Stud requests seem to still be essentially a promise-based transaction until the studding is completed. I suggest that once attempts have been made, say 10 or so, the request may not be withdrawn without paying a type of "contract cancellation" fee; 20% of the stud fee for example. This would also hold true for stud racing, as a successful breeding by someone else's lion would be treated as a withdrawn stud request.

Edit 9/26: Have a customizable fee amount down to 0, as a means of opting out.

Any additions, ideas, criticisms welcome.
