Sagan 4 Forum [Menu]

I think it's great

Some parts of the diet are listed in an overly long way that would be better elaborated in the description or suggested by being ranked farther down the list. Namely: Carnosprawl, Necks, Mistswarmers, Flashkelps, Minikruggs, Mudferra, Cloudswarmers, Sapworms, Sruglettes, and especially Gushitos. In fact, if they dislike Gushitos so much and can eat other small flying insectoids, it brings up the question of why it’s even in the diet.
Heterotherm (muscle vibration) should be capitalized, as well as the words In the Reproduction line.

“Songsauce Piper” should be capitalized.

The picture is strongly grainy; it might have been saved as a JPEG and saved over. The black speck near the tail is also so large and conspicuous as to be distracting. The background and the speck could be fixed in less than a minute.

Mid-air should be “midair”.
“Until now, that is”. “Until now” would be better.

I haven’t looked over the whole thing yet, but I can look over more tomorrow.

Yeah I agree all that information about when and how they eat things is not needed. It'll also make it really hard to add this to the bot when I get to this gen because I have to input ALL of those individually instead of just copy-pasting its entire diet.

Just having a dietary list at the bottom of the description with the additions of particular life stages that this thing eats, larvae versus adult for example, be better?

I like the grainy paper, it kind of feels like parchment, and if it's the graininess which goes against the grain, how can that be anything but a pun too wonderful to not make manifest?

Regarding the songsauce pipers, I'm going to recommend adding them regardless of age, once the Ruddy grabs a Songsauce wing in its beak being a few centimeters larger wouldn't really stop an adult songsauce from going down and hitting the waters, its a good strategy and a decent meal, probably delicious too.

Approved by me.
