Professional Trial Runner perk [Being Reworked]
Started By
Just a warning: This is a wee bit out of date; I'm going to update it as soon as I can :D

There's one for the trainers, one for the breeders, but nothing for the trialers.
Gracie suggested in my post about vaccination perks a Trialing perk.

What comes in the Trial Runner's perk is:
The ability to create more trials, regardless of account status [edit: Basics can get 3 trials at once; upgrades get 10 trials at once]
Vaccinations that last twice as long
Discounted Entry fees; maybe $3 per trial win instead of $5 per trial win?
A trial score bonus; maybe +5 or +10 to the trial score?
Being able to enter MORE than 2 dogs per trial
Feel free to suggest additional perks to be added for Trial runners or modifications to the current ideas. Everything will be edited in :3

Visions Idea: Marking dogs as trialers to make vaccinations easier
Aussie's Idea: Marking more than one dog to enter a trial at a time; Shows can be made in increments of 4 instead of 3 to match a dog's full energy levels; saving trial settings (Name, level, breeds)

~Marie agrees with the trial creations
Evlon's idea: "Trial all in level" option; Vaccinate Trial/Show dogs over Vaccinate All

kidstuff's idea: private trials
Sheepdog's idea: Professional Competitor (Trials AND Beauty Shows)

Support, support, support! <br /> <br /> I'd love a page you could go to that let you check mark the dogs you wanted to vaccinate and vaccinating them all at once. <br /> <br /> I also adore the idea of being able to enter more than one dog at a time (via check mark again?) in trials.

Another good idea, thanks Aussie :D

One thing that I would like to add - since a fully energized dog can enter 4 trials - it would be handy if the number of trials a person can make was in increments of 4 not 3. So for basic upgrade members they could make 4 trials and for trail perk members 8 or 12.

OMG, I love the "Trial all for level" idea, Evlon &lt;3 XD I'd save me 8 hours of my day lol

What if there was a way to hit "trial all dogs for this level"<br /> <br /> Which would automatically enter vaccinated dogs with the energy required into that level of trials. <br /> <br /> I for one find it tedious to enter each dog, one by one, into each trial. So I don't trial my dogs as often as I should.<br /> <br /> Also I really like the idea of trial perks bumping the amount of trails to 10 per account. I don't think basics should be able to make trails UNLESS they have the perk. Maybe basic + perk = 3-5 trials. Upgrade + perk = 10. That way you get a benefit either way, but its obviously better if your upgraded. In theory a basic user could trail for more money to buy bones and then upgrade.<br /> <br /> Vaccinate all I would change to "Vaccinate Show Dogs" Meaning the owner could have some way of marking the dog as a show dog (ie, button on dog's page) and only those would be vaccinated. I personally do not show all of my dogs, such as customs or foundations, their tp isn't high enough to me, and after a bit they cost more than they can win. This way if you really wanted, you could mark all your dogs or just some, and until its unmarked it would be vaccinated anytime you clicked the button.<br /> <br /> These perks should work like the breeding and training perks already in place, ie separate from the upgrade.

If they have 10 bones and wish to have a click all for vaccanate and food then they could get the monthly upgrade (only 3 bones) for two months, make a few bones back by selling items they get from the upgrade and get another one. I had a monthly upgrade on my side account. i saved for it. I then turned around was able to sell some things i got from the upgrade itself and get a year long upgrade without having to spend a cent of real money. (i buy most of my bones in auction) <br /> <br /> Its not impossible to be able to get the upgraded perks, you just have to save for them. Besides the breeding and the monthly item, what do the upgraded users get? Trials. we get 4 perks (if you count the feed all) for 15 dollars. <br /> <br /> Its a nice idea in theary to have something like that, but the idea could be put to better use to encurage more users to buy upgrades, by increaseing the trials to maybe 5 trials per upgraded user, and adding the Vaccanate all, it could help ala bring in more cash.

Again I say: Why should a basic member even buy the perk then? There can be different trial allotments to create at once. Basics will obviously have less, but being able to make some trials for their dogs will help them out instead of having to rely of upgraded members to make them.<br /> If they can't even vaccinate their dogs quickly, this perk would be a waste of their 10 bones.

05-31-2011 at 5:58 AM
If you have the Trialing perk, you should have a 'Vacanate All' button, like the feed all button. Just an idea.

05-31-2011 at 5:54 AM
Like Jambers I don't support the whole non - upgrades being about to make trials. There just aren't enough perks of being upgraded then, maybe make it so upgrades can make like 10 trials instead of 3?

05-31-2011 at 5:54 AM
I support anything that makes trialing easier. XD

05-31-2011 at 5:53 AM
I support 100% :P<br /> <br /> I can't think of anything to suggest I might later on XD

05-31-2011 at 5:50 AM
I believe (and i could be wrong here) that the Feed All is a click that was put up for upgraded users as well. Its not a pushishment to basic users. But a perk to upgraded users. <br /> <br /> Also i know what you meen by not haveing enough trials open to run your dogs. But it seems the trials are getting more slective to what dogs can run, not less in number. The other day i went to run Dimi in some trials and only found one that would except him without "being rude to other members" because thay ask for costome onlys or FAD's only.

05-31-2011 at 5:49 AM
I absolutely support! :D This is one of the amazing ideas that I believe should be taken into serious consideration. One thing to add to the list of perks would be adding a TP bonus (like the Kitsune), which could be anywhere from +5 to +30. Again, wonderful idea!

05-31-2011 at 5:48 AM
OOO yes, so for this shin! Its a great Idea...I don't trial as much as a should because of the pain of doing them and then none being open...and all the vacs...etc each week

05-31-2011 at 5:41 AM
That's the problem, Jam. There aren't enough trials. I have to ask several times for more and more trials because I have 117 dogs I run. It's ridiculous to ask 20, 30, or even 40 times for more trials through out the day to finish trialing all my dogs. With and only with this perk, basic members can also create trials.<br /> <br /> And I don't like the idea of a vaccinate all being limited to only upgraded members, I'm afraid that it will push basic members further off wanting to trial.<br /> What I'm thinking is this perk makes everything fair for all players regardless of account status like the breeder and trainer perk does. What would the point be for a basic player to pay 10 bones for this perk be if s/he can't get the ability to make more trials and vaccinate all their dogs with a single click?

I dont support. One of the few things upgraded users get to do is make trials. You can always ask for one of them to put up a few trials for you. <br /> <br /> Also i sugested a vacanate all click a wile ago. so i support a vacanate all, but for the upgraded users.

Luv it!!<br /> Support, support, support, support, etc.<br /> 8)

Total support! Wonderful idea! :D

I still love this idea. :)
