well, actually, WOBP is notoriously unreliable. i found mistakes and reported them to WOBP several times.

they dont realize that butter and lesser are basically the same morph, same is true for banana and coral glow. ive also found duplicates, two entries under two different names for exactly the same morph. they had "black pastel lesser" and "black platinum", both with the genetics black pastel + lesser. toffino and candino are listed as double-recessives. and when you breed a toffino to a normal in their calculator, it says you get 100% double-hets, het toffe + het albino. they had banana listed as a recessive for quite a while. ive seen plenty of super combos, for example combos containing super pastel, listed as containing only a single pastel gene. stuff like that of course also effects their genetic calculator. and half of the morphs on WOBP are not tagged properly so they dont show up when you search for the genes they contain. their calculator thinks that hypo and butterscotch ghost are incompatible and lead to double hets.

i could go on and on. anyway, i trust the experts on this forum much more than i trust WOBP. Sure, people here also make mistakes, but if they do, someone else notices it and clears it up.

And WOBP is also very lax when it comes to accepting "new genes" that are just a new name for some other gene. when you get them to accept "bling yellowbelly" as a new gene it surely makes it easy to get a bunch of "new" world first morphs, that the combos already exist with regular yellowbelly and the stuff looks completely the same doesnt seem to matter. So NERD produced the first lemon pastel yellowbelly in 2007 and the first lemon pastel bling yellowbelly in 2012. Yeah right. Nothing against NERD, but it surely must be nice for NERD that WOBP just believes every single thing they say.

getting WOBP to believe in stuff you want them to believe in is a really, really low hurdle. one of these days a troll will get the better of them and get them to accept something ridiculous like a new line of "Donald Duck pastel" or something, or maybe a BP that got a paintjob with food coloring or something, maybe a BEL painted to look like a panda pied, im waiting for it. or get them to accept a totally redundant morph called "occam's razor", the irony would be awesome. Mark my words, it will happen, one day a troll will come and totally and completely own them with some genious prank.
