The Encyclopedia

[dancing_serpent]

So, what are your thoughts on the encyclopedia? Have you played around already, ignored, or even unlocked the complete information on a breed?

I wasted about four hours on it yesterday, unfogged/un-shadowed the pages for all of the breeds (except Zombies, for those I had to wait until this morning, of course), and unlocked the complete information on Speckle Throats. Here's a reason to re-install snaplinks again. *g*

And while I don't mind the slow unlocking of information, I'm really bummed that the stats don't show all my previously raised dragons. If TJ could give us that, I think I could love the encyclopedia.

ETA: Also, I wonder if it leads to more popularity for sites like Daily Dragon Fix, where you need a daily click quota to keep playing.

For simply un-fogging the image on the breed page, clicking three adults of one breed each is enough. For unlocking pictures and more information you need to click many many more - but the site will actually tell you how many, so it's not complete guesswork.

So, I played around a bit. I unlocked the complete info for Vampires (have 10+ gendered frozen hatchlings on my scroll and then I clicked on eggs on click sites) - bummer, there are no notes for them!
I also un-fogged some breed images but have no motivation to do all...

Good thing is that I have almost no frozen hatchlings. That means I will have to collect/breed them for scroll completion & the images are going to be unlocked by doing so. It would annoy me SO much to "observe" all the hatchlings.

Well, I think this "dragonopedia" is nice for times where I have nothing else to do :)

Yeah, "observing" was the main reason for getting snaplinks back, because I have no intention at all to collect eggs and raise hatchies for all the breeds I've already completed my goals for. Which is, pretty much all the breeds except Pyralspites and Holiday dragons.

Finding a hoarder for a breed and just snapping their scroll works fine for me.

ETA: Or if I'm in a good mood, clicking my way through the lot on DDF, like I did this lunch break. That was nice and easy, too.
