BlameThePixel - Pet Pixels

My Suggestions:

1. Give pixville 2 tenants, like in pixville.
2. Give a brief selection of hotels to send your worm to when you go away. There would be about 5-10 different hotels ranging from a really shoddy hotel to a luxurious one. The more luxurious hotels cost more. There wouldn't be any need for a pixel to increase loads of health while you are away - to stop it from dying it just needs to stay the same.

The best hotel would increase your pixel's health by 10%, no matter how long you leave him there for. It could cost, say, Â£30 per day (you select the number of days for him to stay there). It might not seem like a lot of money, but it is - Don't forget when people go away it's not just for one day, it's usually for a few days up to a couple of weeks.

The worst hotel would make your pixels health go down less than it would if you just let him alone. For example, if pixels lose 100% health per day, in this hotel it might only lose 90% per day. Other hotels could be set up for 80%, 70%, 60% etc.

The hotels wouldn't be set in pixville or pixville 2. They should be for members, not pixels. However, there could perhaps be a pixville for pixels. People could set up a hotel for pixels to stay in. The owner of that hotel would select the health drop the pixels would get during their stay. It couls be anything from 100% drop to 25% increase. The owner would recieve money from other members who have paid for their pixel to stay there. The hotels would have a certain amount of rooms, which is set by the owner.

The setting up of a hotel could be done by a little formula to say how much the hotel would cost. This would include:

1) The health drop/increase
2) How many pixels can stay there
3) Entertainment Value of the hotel (see next suggestion)

It would be a good way of making sure everyone gets what they pay for and not an admin deciding on how good the image looks and deciding on the value that way.

3. Lastly I think pet pixels should have a happiness meter. This could be increased by the activity of it's owner (the number of hits), the number of posts etc. A lack of posts and activity could cause its happiness meter to drop. To get it back up you either be more active or post more (not if it would encourage spamming though). Alternatively you could send your pixel to a hotel to increase its happiness. This would increase depending on the hotel's entertainment quality. 100 would make your pet's happiness rise quickly, but it would cost a lot to stay in that hotel. 1 would make your pet's happiness rise slowly but it wouldn't cost much.

Another feature could be introduced to take your pixel out of the hotel if you come back early. However you would not get your money back. In other words, if you sent your pixel to stay in a hotel for 6 days and came back after 3 days and took your pixel home, you would still pay for the 6 days.

Anywho... did anyone read that or did I go on too much?
