Jan. 29, 2005 To put it simply, I really, really suck. :X; I will finish growing all the Maneki. it will just take me a while. D: Why? Because I suck times a billion at coloring the adult art. It's frustrating for me. But I will finish it, I swear. It'll just be a while. x_x;

Jan. 1, 2005 D: Sorry for the silence from me recently. I was on vacation, and then I was sick. >_> And I realize I should've posted about my vacation here, but it slipped my mind.

:O Haikari's custom has emerged, and I'm working on getting some of the teens grown in the next week. It'll take a bit though. D: They're hard to color.

Dec. 3, 2004 Flatsale Maneki have grown to teen, and a date for the custom auction has been set. biggrin Check the auction post.

Nov. 17, 2004 First sale completed! :O heart Raffle tomorrow. ^_^
Nov. 11, 2004 Shop set up. biggrin

Rules
Do not steal the art! I will be a very unhappy Jiora if I find someone's stolen the art. Stealing the art will get you blacklisted on the first offense. >O

Do not beg for a Maneki. I will eat you. Or feed you to someone less pleasant than me. You can wait for a flatsale or auction or raffle like everyone else. This also means no begging owners for their Maneki, or coins from breedings! >O

Be polite! No fighting in my thread, please. If someone's looking to start a fight, ignore them. If they keep it up, get me or a mod to take a look at the situation. I don't need my thread to be filled with flamewars. </3

Payment for flatsales and auctions must be recieved within 24 hours. If I don't have payment within 24 hours of winners being announced, I will pass the Maneki in question to the next person. (The next person who requested the Maneki in the case of a flatsale, or the next lowest bidder in the case of an auction.)

Do not PM me for trivial things. I don't want my PM box to be filled with people saying hi or other little things like that. If you have something important you want to say that you don't feel comfortable posting in the thread, go ahead and PM me.

NEVER IM ME. I hate IMs with a passion. Except for IMs from friends of course. <3 Luff you guys. But seriously. Don't IM me for shop stuff EVER. The ONLY exception to this rule is if you want to report possible theft of the art and don't want to waste time with a PM. You may not IM me for any other reason.

Don't tell me how to run my shop. D: Believe it or not, I know what I'm doing. If I need or want advice, I'll ask for it. <3

Rules are subject to change. If I've forgotten something here or feel I need to change something, I can and will update the rules without notice. <3

You may only own two first gen Maneki. I want to make sure everyone who wants one has a chance. <3 All flatsold Maneki will be Gen 1. Raffles and auctions will be Gen 0.


F.A.Q.
Q: :OOO WUT R THEZE?
A: x_x OMG. Don't talk like that. EVER. Please make an attempt to use proper grammar/English.

Q: D: Sorry. What are these?
A: >_> They're Maneki. Read the first page please.

Q: D: Sorry again! How much do they cost?
A: Maneki are 3k at flatsale price. :3

Q: :O I GOT ONE. Can I breed it now?
A: If it's an adult and there are breeding slots open. >.>

Q: Can I have one for free?
A: >O NO BEGGING. I EAT NOW. ~devours~

Q: x_x Kay then. But you gave so and so a free one! >O
A: Because I luff them. <3 I reserve the right to give Maneki to friends every now and then. Arri has the right to give out a free Maneki for every one I give out. This does not mean you can beg for one from her either. She likes eating people too. <3

Q: Will you make me one that looks like this?
A: If you've won a custom or have a pet trade I'm accepting. Otherwise, no. D: So don't ask.

Q: Okay, so I've got one. Do I have to roleplay it? D:
A: <3 No. I'm never going to take any Maneki away for lack of roleplay. I don't have time to keep up with all my pets, so I won't fault you for not keeping up with all yours.

Q: Is there a limit to how many I can own?
A: Yes and no. You may only own two first gen Maneki (ie: Maneki from flatsales), but you may own however many you wish from breedings.

Q: Why aren't there more questions? D:
A: D: I couldn't think of anymore.

[:O Story/Info goes here when I finish it. <3]
<center><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v505/Maneki_Neko_Gaia/Sta.jpg"></center>

<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v505/Maneki_Neko_Gaia/CoinShad.jpg" align="left"> All Maneki start life out as coins. They remain in this stage for three to five days before emerging as Maneki kittens.



<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v505/Maneki_Neko_Gaia/KitShad.jpg" align="right"> After emerging from their coins, the Maneki kittens are quite curious about their surroundings. They won't wander too far from their coin though, so there's no need to worry about that. They aren't all that great at attracting luck yet either. They remain in this stage for one to two weeks.



<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v505/Maneki_Neko_Gaia/TeenShad.jpg" align="left">

The teen Maneki can begin to attract luck, though it may not always go as intended. For example, a young Maneki meant to attract rains for crops may accidentally bring too much. They're still learning to control their luck powers. Maneki remain in this stage for two to three weeks.




<img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v505/Maneki_Neko_Gaia/AduShad.jpg" align="right">

Adult Maneki possess full control over their powers. However, they're very picky about when and how they use them. Simply asking won't do either, you must give them an offering of some sort. The offering desired varies from one Maneki to another. This stage is final, and there are no stages after it.

Flatsale Rules:

Flatsales are first come, first serve.

You may request a Maneki for a friend, but you may only request one Maneki per post. :O No listing preferences, please.

Flatsale Maneki are 3k each.

Flatsales begin when I post "GO!"

There is to be no editing during flatsales. Doing so will get you blacklisted. >/ I won't have you trying to cheat my customers.

Upcoming Flatsales
None. :O Certs from the latest sale can be picked up in the owner's post. heart

Raffles
Raffles will be held from time to time for special Maneki. Or just normal ones. It depends on what sort of mood Arri and I are in. :3

Raffle tickets will cost 100g each, and there will be 100 tickets with a limit of 10 tickets per person unless otherwise stated.

Upcoming raffles: None planned


Auctions
Auctions will be either for custom Maneki or specials. :O

All auctions start at the flatsale price and have no autobuy at this time.

Upcoming auctions: December 10th.


Events
These are very rare. I'm lazy, and events take planning. Planning that I'm generally too lazy to do. Should there ever be an event, the Maneki involved will likely be very special.

Events planned: None. :O

Arrikanez for agreeing to help me with the shading. whee

No one here. biggrin Keep it that way!
