Shimmer Swap

[unbroken_halo]

I picked up a Bronze Shimmer by accident. I was looking for a Gold. apparently I am a bit colour blind.

Anyway, he's got a neat stair step lineage, if you are into that sort of thing. I actually don't care what it looks like I just need a Gold Shimmer and am offer a trade of Bronze for Gold.

If I had a gold shimmer, I'd breed you one! Alas, all I have by way of gold prizes are a couple of gold Tinsels.

Thanks for the offer!

I just tried her but they gave me Shimmerkin.

If you can wait for a few days-1 week, I can breed you a Gold Shimmer for free, you don't need to give me anything.
I also have these two:

But my Golden Wyverns are on cooldown.

Thanks for trying and I appreciate the offer to breed for free. I know how difficult it is to have the Shimmers throw correctly.

I have to ask....does this mean you don't need one anymore or that you accept my offer? If you want one, just tell me from which you'd like to have offspring from :)

[unbroken_halo]

No problem. I didn't realize I hadn't answered you clearly. Sorry about that, and yes, I still want one, please. It doesn't matter to which one gives the egg, I'll just be pleased to have one.

The Bronze is still on offer, if you want it. I can influence it still, whichever gender you like, since it'll most likely hatch before we can trade.

[mondat]

Ah, ok!*g*
One of my Golden Wyverns is off cooldown but I am completely locked - I can take eggs or hatchlings in 12 hours again. And then I cannot promise that I get a Shimmer from them immediately. But you definitely get a Gold Shimmer from me. Or even two if you want?! I breed their offspring for the AP or for the Departure thread on the forum anyway.

Regarding the Bronze Shimmer, I take it if you really don't intend to keep it. But I am afraid you'll need to influence it female and hatch it because of my scroll lock and the time zones.

[unbroken_halo]

Thank you! I really appreciate it! Bronze influenced and waiting for you when you are ready.

And this is possibly going to sound tots crazy but, with these rare dragons, I try not to be greedy. So, I felt really bad about picking up the Bronze when I thought it was a Gold. I already had 2 Bronze, but I didn't want the person I picked it up from on the Departure thread wondering what was wrong with their Shimmer if I re-listed it, if that makes sense. Hence the passing on of the Bronze I really don't need. I didn't want to mess this little guy's lineage up, either.

Since I also don't understand the entire lineage thing works: how to create them, maintain them or anything, really, I don't much care how my dragons look. I just want to collect at least one pairing of each type.

Gold Shimmer

Aw, I don't think you needed to feel bad about taking a Bronze Shimmer. Well I've have seen how some users simply re-offered an egg they took and if it were me who offered the egg first, I admit it would not feel very nice. It's very kind of you to think of the feelings of the breeder! I personally just don't care much about them anymore and I don't collect them like others do.

And my dragons were nice and gave me something shiny. It's the second egg I ever bred with this couple and it's the second Shimmer, it seems they're in love haha.

Make an offer on my eggs/hatchlings!

It's a two-way trade so you can toss the Bronze hatchling (influences will go away if you teleport the egg) to it and I'll "accept" right away.

Re: Gold Shimmer

[unbroken_halo]

Thank you so much!

The Bronze hasn't hatched yet, so do you still want me to toss him up there? Wanted to ask first just in case you still needed it influenced as female.

Re: Gold Shimmer

[mondat]

You wrote you influenced it female already or am I mistaken?
The influence will go away if you teleport so yes, I'd prefer you gave me a hatchling, please :)

ETA: Nevermind, I took the egg. I have use for it even if it genders wrong :)

Re: Gold Shimmer

[unbroken_halo]

I sent it, but it was still an egg. Cancel the trade if you want util it hatches.

ETA: LOL! ok! Thanks again for the Shimmer.

You're very welcome! If you need another one or a Tinsel, just ask.
