While I'll admit that the subject is overly provocative, it is largely true for me this weekend. I do understand why so many people seem to vote for the 4 element rares. Since there's only time for limited attempts, I guess many people have not yet bred as many as they'd like yet. Personally, I was disappointed to see so many 4-elements winning the rare rerun vote this time around. I would like one more Riff (not a winner this time) and I guess I could add 2 more Quarristers (though that's low-priority). Another unfortunate result of this week's voting is that there's no rare breeding options for Air and Water islands this time around.

Whenever I started playing, I guess I missed out on a lot of the 2 and 3 element rares. Sure there's been reruns of all of them by now, but a lot of those have featured so many monsters it was impossible to successfully breed all of them. There's only a handful of these rares that I'm completely done breeding on all islands - Bowgart, PomPom, T-Rox, and Drumpler. In other words, there's sixteen rare monsters that I'm still seeking, but they keep losing out to those sexy 4-element rares.

So my modest proposal is that BBB switch up the voting for some of their future reruns. How about picking the top vote getter from each of the 1, 2, 3, and 4 element rares. Or perhaps letting us vote on 1 rare per island, whether or not each island's winner is also made available on its other islands. Or go back to pitting choice A against choice B, but keep those quads out of the mix sometimes.

Anyhow, good luck breeding those rares to those who still need them. I'll be concentrating on those pink Furcorns with a few idle stabs at another Quarrister or two.
