Welcome Guest, Please Read This.

No, there isn't a cooldown. You can abandon them straight away or set them up in a teleport.

ok sweet i kinda wondered because people traded me eggs that still had the full 7 days to mature. i may do this in the future after this big event. i need all my spots i have free for the new draggies if i can get any that is

Is it possible to search within a single topic? Or do I have to open each page in turn and use Ctrl+F

Kind of ! Go for "print this topic" (top right) which gives the whole thing in a new window, and THEN use ctrl+f !

I could've sworn I'd put an egg up as part of a two-way trade, but when I came online today it was on someone else's scroll and fogged. I suspect it's fogged because they're trying to make it impossible for me to contact them. I made it pretty clear that I was looking for an exchange and not gifting.

If I was foolish enough to put up a one-way instead of a two-way I know that's my own fault and I'm not getting it back. I'd like to know if there's any way to affirm that I did put it up as a one-way, and that there's not something glitchy going on.

I don't know if the action log notes transfers and trades differently, but if you've made a trade recently you can compare the two entries. If there is a difference, then you'll know.

Sorry about that.

It looks like they show up the same.

I think I'm more annoyed that someone took advantage of my mistake than I am at losing the egg. I was on the fence about trading it off versus gifting it to start with, but opted to trade in hopes of picking up a nice mate for my egg. Ah well. Next time I will be much more careful.

Thankfully there are more wonderful people on Dragoncave than dishonest ones.

I think I've got a little problem. I got this Silver Shimmer in a trade: http://dragcave.net/lineage/DZCuB
Since I don't have any CB Shadow Walkers to continue the lineage, here goes a question: what dragon will be the best as a replacement? I want to breed and gift the offspring to a friend; he doesn't mind "destroyed" lineages but I still would love it to look nice.

White Stripes seem to look ok, here's a lineage of a Bronze Tinsel with White Stripes and Shadow Walkers: http://dragcave.net/lineage/69uGQ
I've also seen people try Luminas, but can't find the dragons I saw (I think I have one somewhere too) to check if that switch worked or not.
Edit: found this girl: http://dragcave.net/lineage/5KCot

Edit2: I guess the ones I'm offering are only visually similar, not by pose or other properties >_<

For appearance: I've seen Greys and Stones replace them. My personal preference is Grey because they both look sinister to me.

For actual rarity/theme: Cavern Lurkers are good, as are Black Marrows.

Ooh, these are all very good examples. Thank you!

Just bred my Shimmer with Lumina but they didn't produce an egg. Maybe next time.

I'm a little late to the party, but the link in your trade post says" this transfer
has been claimed by another"

so you did post a one way( I've done that myself-- now I check teleport links very carefully before posting)

Thank you. I was just checking recent actions ... didn't think to check for different messages there.

Try a white or a silver if you have one.

I'd go with a White, as the pose and color are somewhat similar. The only other dragons that really come close in color without disruptive secondary colors are Silvers, and I don't think you'd want to waste a CB Silver by pairing it to such a high gen Shimmer. If Tinsels are any indication, ones of that high a generation won't be worth much of anything in a few months.

That being said, if you want to continue the lineage properly, maybe see if someone else will swap with you for a same gen Shimmer of a line you CAN continue?
