The Introduction of Faudilay

[Faudilay]

Hello, fellow Auratus Ghoti people! I am Faudilay, and I'm prepared to make some noise in this quiet neighborhood. Despite the forum looking like a ghost town, (no offense!) I shall make an attempt at communication.

I am not currently active on any pet sims. I have however, played a wide scope of them. I think the first pet sim I ever played is Foopets. After that came Mweors, Wajas, and Chickensmoothie. There was also a wolf rpg one that I played for the longest time that I can't remember the name of. I've played Felisfire, Tygras, Lioden, and Wolfplaygame too. I've never played a fish sim though, but I'll soon find out.

I heard about Auratus Ghoti through Virtualpetlist, and I think I'll be in the Idealist faction.

I'm not much of an expert when it comes to fish, but playing a fish sim will probably help me in that area. I've never had a fish, except for a few times that my brother won a goldfish at a fair, but they died, for we didn't have a real fish tank with the bubble thing that keeps enough oxygen in the water for the fish.

I can draw somewhat good with pencil and paper, but the best I can do on the computer is crude.

I've always wanted to be an Alpha member on a pet sim, but there was always the obstacles of having to pay or invite codes which I never had the right connections. I think it'll be a great experience, being able to watch Auratus Ghoti grow.

Welcome! We're so glad to have you here! (and yay for VPL people!)

One of the minigames that will be released at opening will be a trivia game that two of the NPCs will run and it will be both on lore stuff as well as some educational stuff on goldfish (which the lore will occasionally have, albeit from the fish's point of view rather than the point of view of a human observing them). I'm hoping to put a lot of education stuff in item tooltips since most of the items that aren't apparel/battle related will be things that you would actually use in a goldfish pond (such as the plants and foods). I'm really wanting to make this game both fun and stealthily educational haha.

I hope you enjoy the forums and also the game when it opens for alpha! Welcome to the pond!

That seems interesting. Hopefully I'll learn enough after a while to be able to take care of real goldfish should I ever choose to own some in my future! (They can't be that hard to take care of if you have the right supplies...) If not, at least I can't kill the virtual goldfish!

Thanks a lot!
