2015-08-29 - August Release

[Quinney]

I have a bronze hatchie! I've also replaced the egg with one from the volcano - my first ever from there!

[Twyro]

These must be my favourite newly released dragons in a long time, LadyLyzar, so thank you so much for sharing them with us.

[Sapphire Ryu]

Since you guys like that, I'll release these for you to use as avatars. However, I'll only do it for each color once members have adults of that color.

 

As only the golds have grown up so far, here is a gold version of it.

 

 

If you want to use this (or the others coming later), please save it to your computer and upload it using the forum or your own image hosting account. That way the bandwidth on my Photobucket won't get eaten.

Woah! Thank you so much, this is so beautiful! I can't wait to see all of the avatars together!

 

Thank you, LadyLyzar! ^.^

You're totally amazing!

 

Also, this is the weirdest release ever...

 

 

 

 

 

I love it!!!!

Is it just me or are Lunar Heralds extremely male heavy??

 

Almost all the trades in the Hatchi trade thread are trading males for females, including mine lol.

It's more or less expected that the trade section will veer more in the one or other gender direction. The reason is that the moment someone posts up the first gender swap, the person with dragons of the other gender is going to offer on their trade rather than post up their dragons in a separate trade, whereas people with the same gendered dragons that want a swap are forced to post. That then holds true for most subsequent trades as well.

 

So you can end up with a biased trading section even though the gendering itself isn't necessarily biased at all.

Do you mind if myself or bluesonic (whichever of us reads your reply first) uploads this, and subsequent ones, to the wiki?

[LadyLyzar]

I'm fine with that - your bandwidth, not mine. However, I'd like to get them added to the forum avatar selection at some point if that's ok with TJ.

[Merlot]

Question? Will someone tell us when the new color comes out cause I am a bit dumb on the moon phases and such. Trust me unless your sitting next to me and talking like I am 5 I will not understand lol

Only TJ knows for certain when the moon phases will change and reveal a new colour. This thread will probably go very active again when it does though, so keep an eye out here. I think around midnight DC time (EST, UTC-4) is when the phases do change, if you want a time of day to be alert at.

I think wikia has bandwidth to spare. Some wikis have a few hundred thousand images stored on them.

But didn't the Gold Lunars start falling at 3:00AM? With the Bronzes beginning at 8:00PM or so?

 

ETA: Yup, just checked the first post and it was at 3:00AM.

I'm not too worried about it. Looking forward to when members start getting adults of the other colors, too.

Basically what Ansela said, no one knows. If you can, just keep the /help/time page open all the time and refresh it on occasion (that's what I do), but if you want to know when to be most alert, the last phase changed at 8PM Dragon Cave time. So, between then and midnight DC time is when you want to keep tabs on it the most.

[Nofnof]

I bred a Golden Lunar and a Seasonal, they made a brown Lunar. So, it may be as the wyrms, or the moon phase, I still don't know my other couple didn't breed ^^"

[walkinslow]

What a beautiful new avatar! Thank you, LadyLyzar!

[blockEdragon]

dose this new avatar come in silver?

 

[Stormcaller]

Here's another old lady wishing you a Happy Birthday, Riverwillows!

 

So far my dragons look like they will be a straight 50/50 male and female, but that is using influence on them. The Pinks almost always do a good job for me.

oh sorry i did not see that

i cant wait for the silvers!

i will probably keep it in my signature though if it comes out because my avatar is part of my name

[glytchling]

Wouldn't it be cool if the multiple wings only happened at night

[Twyro]

Wouldn't it be cool if the multiple wings only happened at night

Yes, but that would mean more slots in the encyclopedia to observe and unlock, just like with multiple glowing phases of the spirit wards.

oh yes it would but then they wouldn't be as nice during the day

[Stellaluna22]

Yay my bad fanart ;A; (uncoloured because I suck at colouring lol)

It actually looks pretty accurate, I really like it!

[Lady Artemis]

Is it just me or are Lunar Heralds extremely male heavy??

 

Almost all the trades in the Hatchi trade thread are trading males for females, including mine lol.

Every lunar that's hatched on my scroll has gendered female D:

[Sapphire Ryu]

Yes, but that would mean more slots in the encyclopedia to observe and unlock, just like with multiple glowing phases of the spirit wards.

I don't really mind encyclopedia things, but for those who want full encyclopedias, a night-only multiple wings view would only be one different view to unlock, not multiple views like Spirit Wards.

 

Wouldn't it be cool if the multiple wings only happened at night

I agree! If not a night-only multiple wings, then possibly a more faded wing (like Shadow Walker transparencies) might be interesting, as well.

That's very beautiful! It doesn't have to be colored. ^.^
