Posted by | OVERHAUL: Marking Tiers |

So this has been discussed in a few other suggestion topics, namely these ones here, but... why not just overhaul the entire system in the coding rehaul instead of just trying to fix all the weird broken tiers? Having strict numbers with little to no organization or logic behind it has always bothered me (and many others!) so in this topic I want to suggest a way to fix it. Correctly!
The Current SystemHere is how it stands now:
Verri's Overhauled SystemAnd here is what I propose:
Further Thoughtsmewflakes (#88492) - SUGGESTION to combine BO raffle and BO event markings into one tier alex|G3 mosaic 7BO bushveld (#53768) - SUGGESTION to have the following tiers: tier I: NCL, not BO, RMA (ncl marks) tier II: not NCL, not bo, RMA (current custom, piety, and RMA-able app marks) tier III: BO, RMA (raffle marks, RMA exclusives, and all BO event and NCL marks) tier IV: not BO, not RMA (gorilla and craftable apps) tier V: BO, not RMA (hybrid marks) Let me know what y'all think! |

I think it's too many tiers. My brain is tiny and already forgets what the tiers we already have are. I think it's a little too broken down, like 8 and 9 should be one.

I agree it could be, though since event and raffle marks are separate right now I tried to keep 'em separate here as well. But I'll add your suggestion to the list! ^^

i agree with the suggestion to combine event and raffle bo marks!
i think the most important distinctions for tiers are BO vs non-BO and RMA vs non-RMA, plus (maybe) the distinction between ncl and custom marks, so if you really want to pare it down the tiers can be: tier I: NCL, not BO, RMA (ncl marks) tier II: not NCL, not bo, RMA (current custom, piety, and RMA-able app marks) tier III: BO, RMA (raffle marks, RMA exclusives, and all BO event and NCL marks) tier IV: not BO, not RMA (gorilla and craftable apps) tier V: BO, not RMA (hybrid marks) rosettes can be tier VI since they have special rules, and RMA exclusives can be separated into tier VII if need be, but this plus tier 0 for unreleased marks seems like the most logical system to separate the rest of them. if you really want to be conservative with the number of tiers, I and II can be combined since the current tier system doesn't discriminate between NCL and non-NCL marks above that tier anyway. personally i think the distinction between NCL and non-NCL marks is useful at that level so people know why NCLs never spawn with (e.g.) pistachio marks, but when you start getting into breed-only marks what type of lion the mark originates from isn't as important. |

I'll add those, too! But I am of the opinion that we need more tiers, not less - the biggest problem we face right now is that we have too many different marking types shoved into way too few tiers and that's where the confusion comes from. xD More tiers = more organization and clearer marking types (at least from where I stand).

that's fair! i think the current system has enough tiers to get by with a reorganization, but i definitely see the use for more tiers and your system makes a lot of sense
