Lineage Projects, Holidays, Welcome

[krait]

Welcome, any and all new Dreamwidth users!

How's breeding going for everyone on your various lineage projects? I just had a 'no egg' attempt on my latest effort, but at least it wasn't a refusal. As soon as they do produce an egg, I'll be done with my Firemage lineage project!

What are your breeding plans for the upcoming holiday? Is anyone looking for holiday mates, or planning to try out a new cross this year? Post your ideas or wishes! Anyone want to guess what the new holiday breed will look like? :D If the pattern holds true, it'll be female this year; I'm hoping for something silvery or green, but wondering if maybe we'll go back to red at last? So far all of our red holiday breeds have been male, so a female would be nice!

Love the names on your epic Storms lineage!

And I know what you mean about the old commons not getting much love anymore. I loved the White and Black dragons when I started playing in 2008 and collected a bunch, and have always found the Mints adorable (my first ever egg was a mint, so I'm very fond of them for that reason), but that was before lineages were visible, so while I bred them, they're all awfully messy. So I like that you're breeding pretty old commons to give them some love!

I started playing at the end of 2008, and I also loved (and still love) the Blacks, Whites, and Storms. My very first dragon was a messy, inbred Black. I still have her but I don't breed her any more. My second was a Storm. A while ago, I decided to collect 32 CBs (enough to breed a 6EG PB) of all the commons that were available when I first started playing (which was only 16 dragons at that time). I have all but the Seasonals, I've been waiting for Winter to collect them, because that's the season I started in. I am still trying to decide whether to collect the Arias, or count the Pinks as the originals, or neither, since the Bright Pinks, to my mind, were a different breed than either the Arias or the Pinks.
