2013-12-19 - Holiday Event Begins!

[Spiteful_Crow]

I absolutely love this! Thank you for sharing.

 

Anytime. You gotta love the classics.

[Amazon_warrior]

seen so many hollies! I may not be able to catch any but sooo many pretties!

I was just popping in to comment on how many of them have *really* messy lineages, lol! Still, nice to see them in the AP. I remember what my first Christmas on DC was like. *shudder*

[zorua9]

does this mean we can get an unlimited amount of previous Christmas dragons?

[KageSora]

This may be a silly question, but do we actually have to collect the snow every hour or does it in fact build up? If you leave it for three hours are there three pieces of snow waiting for you?

 

Thank you.

Snow builds up. I just left mine for the last two hours, game back and had 2 units of snow. Personally, I'm more curious as to if there's a cap on how much snow we can have built up, or if it just keeps going.

I am lucky to have some hollies and might save the breeding to end of the week to keep the momentum going - but I am not going to lie it is great to see them! Is it bad I still want them?!

 

I am super glad to be able to catch past holidays as now my snow angels and yulebucks can have less messier lineages if I get lucky

 

@zorua9 - Yep unlimited till you are scroll locked yay!

Can we now collect more than 2 christmas eggs from a breed or can we catch more, I am a little bit confused.

[Sheriziya]

Yes. For the old christmas dragons you're only limited to the amount of eggs/hatchlings you can have on your scroll. Have fun!

 

@Shajana: For the old Christmas dragons you can collect as many as you like. For the new ones (starting December 25th until December 28) you can only collect 2 this year.

 

ETA: OH, you can repair your fort! Another fun addition

Yep collect all older christmas dragons until you drop or scroll locked

[araglas]

does building on my fort increase the streng or is it just for fun?

[Tiki G]

After staying up much longer than intended last night, and clicking probably well over a hundred hollies, I managed to snag two decent lines and I'm content for now. Though I will still make a (futile) attempt at snagging a pretty 2nd or 3rd gen.

 

Now that we can actually do pretty lines with our holidays without fear of having to release CBs, I'm not too sure what to do with them. I totally wasn't expecting the limit to be lifted so I hadn't really thought anything out. As soon as I get home, I will have to spend a while pondering about that. =P

It increases the strength. Just hover your mouse over the snowballs on the edit page and it will show you how much it will add to your fort's strength.

Thank you.

According to the reports on the IRC it collects automatically.

[Nakeisha]

Thank you for the confirmation that the snow builds up by the hour - much appreciated.

[xoxoLuver_Grrrloxox]

sent you a pn with a snow angel egg

Oh no, I don't see it, hmmm. I sent you a PM all the same, ty so much!

[Sarah864]

Bwahaha. Caught http://dragcave.net/lineage/fUCZG and was gifted http://dragcave.net/lineage/DJX5F . I also reached level 5 but now I'm at a dilemma. Should I let my precious fort be destroyed and quickly gain levels, or should i wait and destroy everyone elses? > It's a bit weird how the AP is still filled with non-holiday eggs. Meh, I'm going back to sleep (stupid time zones).

 

Edit: Does anyone know what decorating your fort actually does? I don't think there's much protection...

[Prince_Xanthius]

whee!

Was not expecting the limits to be lifted! Can get all hatchie stages as well now

[lilacamy931]

so having fort destroyed also levels you up? I am so rubbish at games

[Temeraire]

Yay!!! No limit.... Thank a tonne TJ!

The more you build your fort, the stronger it becomes. If I interpret the hover messages on the edit page correctly.

[kaiachan]

Thank you very much for this lovely update.

 

I am sure the older players are delighted to hear that there is no limit.^^

[Unearthly]

I hope the limit will be removed for Valentines too, I absolutely adore Sweetlings and would love to have a few more.

 

I could sit at the computer all day trying to catch these blasted eggs. Too bad I have to go to school. ._.

[raybrd]

I "think" it just builds up, what I gather is after the 3 hours if you are inactive on the scroll it wont continue to accumulate.

 

With the attack mode random or player, does the other side know who is attacking?

That's great. I have school for two days!

 

 

Anyway, snow+unlimited eggs=AWESOME

[vivo]

I HAVE BEEN ATTACKED. Thou shall pay, attacker! (Still trying to figure out how forts work ) Best event so far though!

[hklmtt]

Feel free to throw snowball at me. My scroll name is hklmtt007.

 

Please pm me if you'd like a whack back.

 

Merry Christmas!

[lalalas]

AT LAST!

I got a Holy! And with a clear lineage too!

 

Thank you TJ for this gift to be able to have more than 2 Christmas dragons, and for this great mini game!
