Species Suggestions

I think this goes without saying that your favorite celebrity won't win an award simple because you shout out their name the loudest. A name might not tell anything, even if it sounds really cool. You'll have to list their achievements in order for others to recognize and appreciate their work and hopefully they'll be nominated for the award. Er, let me explain... o_O

There is a large number of different species and it's unfortunate that some or a lot of them won't make it to Exhibited. There's no doubt you're excited about a new raptor species you've discovered for yourself and you'd happily raise a few specimens of your own, but before you get too excited there are a few things you should keep in mind.

The first step is to make sure the species is appropriate: it's obvious that rats, giraffes or crocodiles will not be added. (there goes my attempt to be funny...*ahem*)

In Kitty's (#1) own words:

Having other species of dinosaurs
"Like herbivores, etc etc. That's a great idea and I AM adding them - herbivores will be able to be raised similarly to cattle, for example - but other species of dinosaurs will not be playable like the raptors. The reason for this is I want to put more focus on the carnivores on this game. We can't take away from the stars of the show!"

You might also want to check out the site owner's stickies to find out if the species you're suggesting is already accepted/rejected. http://www.exhibited-sim.com/topic.php?id=138

* Secondly, make sure this species isn't added on this game already; then double check if there isn't a thread about the wanted species. If there is, don't create a separate post - it will only confuse players - simply cast your vote and be patient. =)

If there isn't a post about the species yet, then you probably have no other choice than to create one yourself. As I said earlier, simply a name of the species won't say anything, let alone a group. Do a bit of a research. These following points are extremely appreciated:

Name:
Diet:
Height:
Lenght:
Weight:
Location:
Era:
Name means:
Name pronounced:
Information:
Interesting fact:
Picture references:

You may go to the Museum or read other suggestion posts for examples. It's OK if you don't have all of the answers, maybe someone else can or will help you, but it's essential to build a foundation on which the potential supporters can rely on.
