The other news being that I'M ALIVE!!!
Sorry for the few and far between updates... Its been seriously crazy the last couple of weeks. I've been student teaching which keeps me on my toes (its really painful, you should try running about after kids up on tippy-toes all the time... jk... kind of...). Then I got suuuuuuuuuuper sick last week which was NOT FUN. 10 out of 10 do not recommend! Blah! Still recovering from that, actually.
However, now I'm on spring break, which is nice, but I'm still busy with lots of paper work and shtuff. But! I got some time to implement a huge part of this site that I am very excited about.
Every cat now has a link to their section of the ginormicous family tree! :D Awesome, right? Complete with pictures and a few of the catz have extra info attached. :D However, the way I did it, when you click the link, you technically have the option of editing the cat's information. Please do not do that. If this becomes a problem, then I'll have to take out the family tree which would make me very sad. :/ So please resist! I spent a ton of time on it and love it so much that I wanted to share it with anyone who takes the time to look at this site. Also, if you notice anything wrong with the family tree, please feel free to comment about it and set me straight. I would rather I were the one that fixed it because other wise it might get rather confusing. Also, you might think something is wrong, but it ends up that it was actually intentional. So just let me know; thanks in advance! :)
Alright, a couple other updates: on the forums, I am thinking that I'll make the Catz5Clanz boards open for guests to write on. It occurred to me that I was not so much interested in having members as I was in having input, so I'm going to go and open that up.
Also, Poor Rabbitleap's kits have been stuck in limbo for so long that I think I'm going to make the executive decision to not wait for two other members to put their input in on their names and whether or not they should live. I'm going to accept Elbees' suggestions on names and I am retiring the mutated kit to Starclan. It'll be the very first member of starclan! But I'll wait to open that page back up until we have a few more members there.
Speaking of which, I plan on taking up Elbees' other suggestion of having a war between the clans. I'm going to send a few catz from each clan to Starclan and a few of the older survivors to the elders' den. I'm thinking I'm going to use an online random answer generator to choose who will live and who will die... We'll see how that goes.
And second to last, thanks to Willow of the RKC, we have an infusion of new members from the outside world! Willow requested that they have the prefix DS in their names (I think that's just for showing which I won't be doing, but I thought it would be good to remember that they were not bred by me). So you should be seeing them scattered throughout the clanz. Some already have mates!
Finally, I think every clan has some apprentices now and are all very healthy. The war couldn't be more timely! Let the drama begin! :D
