So sitting here reading these, I got to thinking about bribes.
From what I understand, colorists open their bribe slots when all their work is done/caught up with and they possibly want a chance at something fun to do. That's cool, it's a nice thing for them to do when they don't have a MASSIVE work load to stay busy with.
I think my only concerns are as follows.
---
Part 1
From what I've seen, bribes are only opened once or twice a year. In each case it's one person getting a chance to win a pretty much anything goes custom (with certain restrictions still there of course) or a breeding where they can request certain traits, genders, etc.
In the case of Big Bribes, I think I've only seen a couple opened ever in my time being at the shop (which is albeit, a short amount of time really). These give a chance for people to win a ton of customs/breedings and keep them for themselves or spread them among friends/newbies/etc. Awesome idea. This also sort of lets groups of people pool funds to go towards offering a big bribe.
What I'd like to see is more chances at bribes, be it a couple more opened a year, or the colorist being comfortable enough to accept more than one winner for regular bribes depending on what people are trying to bribe for.

Part 2
What is an acceptable bribe offer? I don't think anyone really knows.
I was once told to take the base price of what you want, then add extra for what you think is acceptable for edits etc. Does this still hold true? Or are people just throwing out arbitrary amounts? Are the winners offering absurd amounts in upwards of 100 million, or are they winning with normal things like 100k?
Staff, what is a decent amount. Do you accept the insane offers you must get like the 100m, do you just ignore anyone who doesn't bid more than a certain amount. Or do you only look at concepts and what appeals to you?
I guess if you don't want to publicly throw out numbers, you can PM me, I'm honestly just curious. That and it would probably keep down the number of people left broken hearted because they'll see that and go "I can never afford a bribe D8" and leave.
