wanted: new "shimmer" egg

[krait]

I will give a kidney (or the next Gold or Legendary egg I breed, your pick!) to the person who can catch one of the new "this egg shimmers like gold" eggs from the Alpine drop! I have been trying for about six hours now and my connection gets slower every time, so I think there's just no way that I'll manage. *sadface*

Please please pretty pretty please?! I am pathetic but I am also able to give you many nifty dragons, so take pity on me?

I've only been able to get one of the new eggs so far (a moonlight one), because I'm locked for another couple of hours. I figure the frenzy will die down in another day or so and it will get easier. They're not limited edition eggs, so there will be plenty of time to catch them later.

If you still need them once I've been able to catch a couple for myself, I'll try to help then.

Awesome. Hopefully the connection will get better before the drops slow down to a trickle; but as I'm already starting to see more commons mixed in I was getting worried.

I may even have an extra "moonlight" egg if you need one; I fear it is very hard to precision-click when also trying to beat the millions of other clickers, so at least once I've clicked on what I thought was (going to be) a Shimmer but turned out to be a Moonlight. :D

I just unlocked and caught myself a shimmering egg, and now I'm locked again. :) It wasn't as hard as I feared, I saw quite a few in the hourly drop. I have another egg hatching in about an hour and a half, so I can try again. I like to have at least 2 CB pairs of each breed, but once I get one pair of each, I'll take a break and try to catch you one.

I'm really tempted to drop these three CB pebble eggs I caught for Neglected experiments... they'll probably die anyway, and they're taking up my egg slots! But I've already had them for two and a half days, and I don't want to waste the time I've invested in them. So I'll just be patient.

I know what you mean about misclicks -- especially when the eggs are zooming by so quickly. I clicked on a few moonlights when trying for a shimmer, too, but fortunately someone else grabbed them first.
