Hello, I'm Wren, and I have a feeling you're here to learn about creating a litter. Well, you've come to the right place! I'm so excited to share my /FREE/ Litter Making Guide with you, packed with tips and rules in making litters in Cold Bloodlines. Let's get started. ------------------------------------------------- [] Legend [] ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ * - Required + - Suggestion but not required ------------------------------------------------ [] TABLE OF CONTENTS [] ---------------------------- - Introduction - Legend - TOC - Litter Making Rules - Litter Requirements & Suggestions - FAQ (WIP) ---------------------------------------------------------------- [] LITTER MAKING RULES [] -------------------------- 1 - You MUST include ALL required elements in your application. 2 - A litter can have anywhere between 1 and 6 kits. 3 - Please only host one litter at a time. 4 - If you're pre-claiming a kit, you must have at least one other kit in the litter that is open for applications. 5 - Absolutely no refusing a kit based on an Owner wanting the cat to be part of the LGBTQ+ community or for any similar discriminatory reasons. 6 - If a Litter Mod gives you an instruction, please follow it. For the mods themselves: don't argue with a rude or disobedient roleplayer; just report it to me or a Mini-mod. 7 - For biological litters, please try to make the kits' designs look like they could realistically come from their parents! 8 - You can state a kit's gender at birth, but you cannot prevent an applicant from making that character trans. 9 - Always credit designers, bases, etc.! If you don't, you'll be asked to. If credit isn't given, the litter will be shut down and designs returned to their creators. 10 - Please do your research! If you plan to offer a kit with a disability, research it enough to know what to look for in a good application. 11 - Give your kits nice, respectful names. Avoid offensive or insensitive names (like Deafkit for a deaf kit). If you're unsure about a name, just ask me or a Litter Mod. ---------------- [] ADD [] ------------- Love helping out and being part of the team?

[] FAQ [] Q. "What does Litter Requirement 6 mean?" ~~~~ A. When applying for a kit, you'll notice litters fall into a few main types: First Come First Serve (FCFS), Semi-Selective (SS), Selective (S), Randomized (R), or Other (O). An FCFS litter is just as it sounds—the first applications that meet all the requirements get the kits! Semi-Selective means the artist will choose a winner either when they find an application they love or after they receive a set number of apps for each kit. For a Selective litter, winners are announced by a specific date, even if some kits have no applications yet. With a Randomized litter, every qualified application gets entered into a random draw (like a digital spinner) to pick the winners fairly. Finally, Other is used for any unique selection process that doesn't quite fit into the other categories Q. "How would I organize my Litter?" ~~~ A. You're welcome to organize your information in any way that works for you, as long as it's all there. But if you're like me and find yourself feeling lost sometimes, this template is a great place to start - https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/1061731380 We're adding more answers to your questions all the time, so be sure to check back soon!
