hello!

so I was recently attempting to organize my den page and I decided I wanted to list all my lions I considered 'achievements' such as hybrids, sunsets, etc. the issue is that I JUST decided to do that, and I already have them in my pride and I have no clue when I bred them. I wanted to be able to put their birthdate beside their name so I could track my progress, but I realized there was no way to see the birthdate.

not only is this inconvenient, but I think it'd be interesting to have their birthdate on the page. in some other sim games ive played, the birthdate adds a level of value, for example if someone had a frozen lion from the first couple months of the game, people would likely want to collect it.

just a thought!

let me know your thoughts and opinions below please!

Seeing the birthdate of lions would help a lot.

HOWEVER, it would also take a fuckton of coding to achieve.

Conditional support, but it depends how long LD keeps the records as to whether they could make this retroactive.

good point, it'd be interesting to hear an admin's opinion on this, and how to achieve it.

Good idea. Just take into account that lions age by rollovers, not IRL days, so the birthdate may be inconsistent with the shown age.

some way of doing this really would be nice. as it is, i manually keep the dates for my heirs etc. would be nice to have that for everyone!! i think it’s worth considering, with what coding needs to be done and what other aspects of the site need the team on that.

Yeah, that would be cool. A few lions I just noted their birthdates in description, but going into the future, this would be a cool feature to have if possible.

Support! I track birthdays already, but having this as a built-in feature would be really neat :)

I could see the birthdate located right of the age or in the "lifetime" section. For example:

Age | 0 Months Old (10.27.2021)

Lifetime
Birthday | Oct. 27, 2021 Total Hunts | 0 Successful Hunts | 0 Success Rate | 0%

This would be super cute ! I would love that, especially since Im gone for long periods here and there so it'd be cool to see when my lions were actually born whenever I come back .

This was suggested a while ago but I support! I can't think of many cons for having a lion's birthday shown

It shows their age. Just count backwards
I think this would just add more useless and overrated value to lions, just like the whole clean breeding craze, and if it really matters just mark the birthdate down

No -- rollovers are not equal to IRL days.

@Akiosecret:

Age has nothing to do with birthdate. I’ve been playing this game for almost a decade and inconsistently login, some of my lionesses are absolutely 3+ IRL years old. And adding “overrated value” to lions is part of what makes this game fun. Stats barely matter, “Cleanness” doesn’t matter, Marking slots don’t matter, in the actual mechanics of gameplay, but those things all add value and competitiveness to breeding. Things such as that are what keeps this game fun and competitive

Market demand is entirely player created, and without new additions, this game would have gotten stale so incredibly long ago. Clean breeding came to the forefront only a few years ago, and it added a new challenge for players in the market. Having old lineages that are also clean could add even more value— and even more challenge to breeding. Nothing wrong with that! If you don’t want to participate, you definitely don’t have to. Suggestions like this just add some new life to a game a lot of us have been playing for so long.
