Christmas is upon us

[ragdoll]

There's a snow fort game this year running through 1/2 which looks fun, and breeding is happening now. (No end date listed). New dragons will be falling from 12/25-28. There will be a two egg limit on the new eggs, but now you can catch as many of the bred eggs from past years as you want. Right now the AP is lagging for me so badly that I can't even misclick without getting a message telling me the egg I want isn't there.

If anyone wants any 2G Holiday eggs (other than a Holly), let me know. I haven't bred mine yet. I have to wait until tomorrow night for my current eggs to hatch.

I have one Holly and would love to swap for a second egg if anyone is willing, but mine is kind of messy (beggars can't be choosers).

I'm already out of breeding material, all my Christmas Dragons were promised a while back. But I'd love to get a chance at a Holly - have seen lots of them on the AP already, but right now I'm at work. Really looking forward to going home to my fast connection. *g*

What, did TJ really raise the limit on Holiday dragons? Wow! I have to take a closer look. (Does this mean we can keep our own bred eggs on our scrolls without having them auto-abandon, too?)

Don't know yet if I like the Snow Fort thing...

Yeah, we can now actually keep one of our eggs per breeding like any other eggs. So that's a good thing. Some people are freaking out because they think it's "just like Halloween" but it's not -- there's still going to be a 2-egg-per-scroll limit on CB eggs, and no one has more than 7 slots or 6/7 days to raise them. Sheesh.

I've seen a lot of Hollys in the AP, and I do have a decent connection, but I can't catch anything. The lag is so bad that I suspect that by the time the damn page actually loads for me, the eggs are long gone.

I definitely would prefer to swap with people rather than spend time catching things, only not to get them OR to finally get something and have it be a mess. :)

Well, reading comprehension...*g*

Huh, that's actually a neat solution. Having a limit of 2 CBs, but beeing able to keep/pick up bred eggs will do a lot towards pretty even gen lineages. I even might get interested once Valentines Day comes around.

[ragdoll]

I'm hoping the same is true for Valentine's Day. My first year's Vdays are 2G because I wasn't able to catch them the year they came out due to lag and cave-related stupidity, but everything else are CB. This should be fun.

Now I feel kinda bad... :c

And I bombed your Snow Fort by the way, hahaha!

[dancing_serpent]

Nope, don't worry. I was perfectly fine with that - five eggs for you, and five for thistlechild. Glad I could help.

So that was you. *g* Well, it leveled me up, so I'm okay right now. I only do anonymous/random bombings for a start.

ETA: Okay, now that I understand the game I'm not going to do anonymous hits any more. If fighting is the only way to level up, go ahead and throw all the snow at me. *g*
