Thanks Siryuki! Wasn't sure if I was doing it right. Glad to hear I was.

 

Yeah....lots of golds, 50 was my scroll goal until I decided to do two naming themes with Led Zeppelin songs....they sort of just grew from there.

 

I didn't realize I had as many vamps as I do....I bite when bored.

I know there's likely plenty of people with more than this, but they haven't posted ^^

 

Also, which are 'speckled' dragons?

Alright, so the rules of the DC records is that a person needs 20 adult dragons to qualify for the record. Since you have just the 2, then unfortunately you can't be named for the record.

 

As for the speckled dragons, they're the Bright Breasted Wyverns.

Title of Record: Breeder with the most Ungendered Dragons

Name of Submitant: Wolf Wings

Proof for Record: Egg Drop Soup and My Scroll

 

Not sure if frozen hatchlings count or not but with them, i have 212.

 

Ungendered Adults, however, number 21 according to Egg Drop Soup and my scroll.

 

Either way, i can take the spot until someone with more ousts me.

[Ethril Dragon]

Hey Wolf, to answer your question Frozen hatchings don't count. Since they could eventually gender.

 

But since you have 21 I'm sure you will get the record.

Yup, I confirm you have 21 balloons. Now all we need to do is wait for Dc to get on to add you to the records list.

Sorry for bringing up the CB "Problem". I didn't realise the amount of work that is involved with it at the moment I posted. I truely understand that you don't like to klick through every dragon on other's scrolls.

I'm thinking of a scripted solution for that ... but it's a bit hard to match every aspect of a possible record.

It should be quite easy to write a script that counts dragons of a special kind ... hmmm ... just some loud thinking I'll tell if I did something usefull and when I find some time to write it. Just like the Tools-Section on Egg Drop Soup, but a bit ... more.

Don't expect too much ... as I said, just some loud thinking so far.

 

[Kapanikos]

Well ... not so bad for a quick shot

 

@Ethril Dragon: I hope you don't mind, that I took your scroll for a quick test of a first version of the script. I read your name quite often here in this thread. If you want me to remove the result, just send me a short PM, and I'll edit my post.

 

So, could this be right? I let the script look over your scroll and especially after Pygmy dragons:

 

> ./count "Ethril Dragon" "Pygmy dragons"

 

All dragons: 338

 

Adults: 305

Adults F: 152

Adults M: 148

Adults U: 5

 

Hatchlings: 33

Hatchlings F: 5

Hatchlings M: 6

Hatchlings U: 22

------------------------------------

Pygmy dragons: 72

Cave born: 33

Adult females: 35

Adult males: 37

 

 

So ... any interest in the script? Then I would develop it further and transform it into a small webpage.

 

And now ... I'll get some sleep .oO(zzzzZZZZzzz)

May I ask you to try it on my Scroll too? I have an Excel file which I can use to compare the results moar quickly :3

Edit:

I see now that somebody applied for the nocturnes on the previous page but I still have more Besides, that record is not in the list yet so I figure I can keep my post in red

Edited July 28, 2010 by ewige

[Kapanikos]

I can confirm ewige's record:

 

Nocturne dragons: 65

Cave Born: 37

Adult Females: 31

Adult Males: 34

 

If I get on your nerves with my script, just tell me

That's a really useful script to have, thanks for making it! I would love to see it on a webpage or something

[Shamiir]

Kapanikos I'm loving your script too.

For this topic, it's interesting to see what the makeup of the claimed record is.

 

I would also love it on a site for my own scroll organizing.

 

 

[ewige]

Kapanikos, your script is beyond cool. You have me in awe.

[CatCreature]

Same here!

 

It's hard to keep track of every caveborn and on how many of one breed I have. (Vampires excluded...)

Title of Record: Breeder with the Most Shallow Water Dragons (20 Adults atm)

Name of Submitant: KingZanto

Proof for Record: acrll is in sig

Reason for submitting new Record: well, noone has this record yet xP

[Kapanikos]

@Siryuki: Are you sure about your White dragon record? Script says:

All dragons: 385

All females: 196

All males: 184

All ungendered: 5

 

Adults: 382

Adults female: 196

Adults male: 183

Adults ungendered: 3

 

Hatchlings: 3

unfrozen: 0

Hatchlings female: 0

Hatchlings male: 1

Hatchlings ungendered: 2

 

Eggs: 1

------------------------------------

 

White dragons: 242

Cave born: 26

Adult females: 131

Adult males: 111

 

 

In the record table, there's only 150. And *sorry* your scroll is horrible to count in that unsorted manner So I don't like to check manually, if my script works correct. I hope you understand

And I must say, I've never seen a scroll of that size with no frozen hatchies. Another record?

 

 

 

For the script itself. Here you can see, what the script counts so far.

It works like this (For the technically uninterested, skip to last paragraph )

I start the script with two parameters:

1. name of the scroll to check

2. special dragon type to count (the 4 numbers specific to the dragon type, shown after the line up there)

 

If I start it only with the name of a scroll it just makes some general counts (shown above the line), but that's nothing new, the tools at Egg Drop Soup do that already (some of you already use their statistics banner).

 

Do you have any further ideas, that I could include in the script to help this records thread? What else could we count? (I think I get myself renamed to Count von Count of Sesamestreet )

The breeds themselves are quite easy to do, except black/alt blacks and dark green/alt dark green dragons. These are treated as one and the same. The script works text based and unluckily the alts and the standards of their kind have the same description. I'm not sure if I can find a workaround for that problem. A picture recognition would be too hard to implement.

 

And after all that, there's the conversion to a webbased version. So far it's a shellscript for Linux only. And so far ... just a quick hack.

At the moment the script runs about 4-5 minutes on a scroll with 300-400 dragons. It fetches the main scroll, and then every single dragon, as if you klick every single dragon on the whole scroll and wait for it to load. I guess we all know, that this takes some time.

I also implemented an option to reuse the downloaded files, to do another search. This time it takes only 1 to 2 seconds.

 

So ... if you have further ideas of what to count, please tell me.

Should I implement counting views and clicks?

Counting dragons with the same naming theme would be very ... errr ... special. If that happens often, I could write an extra script. It shouldn't be hard to do, it just is a quite different thing, compared to what I have so far.

Edit: Ups ... that was quite some text

@KingZanto: I count 22

[AnnieGYG]

I've got 606 dragons, with 10 unnamed so I got 596 with the same naming scheme - Atonia.

Title of Record: Non-gold dragon with most golds in lineage (Sundira – Magi – 13)

Name of Submitant: KaidaClaw

Proof for Record: http://dragcave.net/lineage/PjtB

Reason for submitting new Record: Because I saw the Christmas dragon lineage record, and happened to notice that my Magi had a lot of golds in her lineage.

 

Not sure if this would count as a record, but I thought I might post it anyway

 

BTW, she is non-inbred, so there are no repeats of any gold.

 

[TJ09]

Does anyone think it'd be an issue if I wrote a script to calculate a bunch of records and used it to post in here from time to time?

 

My main concern is whether or not people would want their scroll submitted without their permission.

Mabye you could PM them about it first so they know/aprove of it...

[TJ09]

It'd be quite a few users (Most dragons per breed, CB's per breed, bred dragons per breed, frozen hatchlings per breed, etc) and not all of them are on the forums.
