Posted January 18, 2015 So glad to see the prize acceptance page was fixed up, and my preferences have been saved. With the paranoia of losing the prize gone, I'm now paranoid that I've mistyped the code! And then I'll be paranoid of it gendering incorrectly. I'm probably going to continue losing sleep over this until I have an adult safe and secure on my scroll Bizarrely enough, not more than a month ago I'd dreamt of winning a prize in the raffle, same exact dragon (silver tinsel)! No more than a crazy coincidence but an entertaining one to me x) Even the acceptance fiasco happened. All I hope is that the code mistype that happened there won't happen here, oh yeah, and the misgendering. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) Glad you feel better now. Thanks. It isn't your fault, or the fault of any of the other winners. Just to make that clear. I shoulda known better than to get my hopes up the way I did. Edited January 18, 2015 by Silverswift Share this post Link to post
Posted January 18, 2015 That's cool...but what about pizza? You totally forgot pizza! I totally have pizza on my mind, nobody was supposed to see that. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 18, 2015 By the way.... A WARNING TO EVERYONE (Yes, non-prize winners too) The week that the prizes are sent out, everyone and their mother is going to be clicking every single prize egg in hatcheries. Every. Single. One. Hundreds of times. Prize winners' CBs will be safe from sickness... NO OTHER EGGS WILL. This ALSO includes the non-CB prizes of winners, so for the sake of shiny little eggs, please keep your babies safe. They WILL get viewbombed that week, and probably the week after too. So be very careful when adding eggs to hatcheries. People will be hunting down the codes of the CB eggs, trying to compile lists of the winners. Let's keep the fatalities low, people! I'm so going to put part of that quote in my signature. I hope many other people will follow suit. Congrats to the winners! (As usual, I'm not one of them. It was expected.)

Posted January 18, 2015 Thanks. It isn't your fault, or the fault of any of the other winners. Just to make that clear. I shoulda known better than to get my hopes up the way I did. No I know that. I've felt the same about other things sometimes before giving myself an inward talking to. I didn't allow myself to hope. That's why I was so gobsmacked when I did win. I seriously expected to lose, congratulate the winners and be on my way. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 18, 2015 How long we are going to wait for responds from the winners? (read: when will the redraw be) That's a way more slighter chance to win but it's a chance at least. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 18, 2015 Well I didn't win, there goes all my hopes hopefully I can get a 2nd gen. Of all gold, silver, and bronze to complete my collection ;-; I hope no one takes the name I want, that is what really worries me xP guess I can go another 5 years x3 Oh well congrats winners, hope they breed well ^^ Share this post Link to post
Posted January 18, 2015 How long we are going to wait for responds from the winners? (read: when will the redraw be) That's a way more slighter chance to win but it's a chance at least. Winners get two weeks to respond, but I wouldn't expect the re-draw to be instantaneous after the deadline is up, if I were you. :s Share this post Link to post

I believe its about 2 weeks before the redraw actually happens. 'd Edited January 18, 2015 by ImHelpFul Share this post Link to post
Posted January 18, 2015 I'm so going to put part of that quote in my signature. I hope many other people will follow suit. Congrats to the winners! (As usual, I'm not one of them. It was expected.) oh, that reminds me: ANOTHER WARNING TO PRIZE OWNERS: The closer you are to first place, (along with the more public you go,) the more your prize will be watched like a hawk. Your first 2G egg will most likely get viewbombed. Keep a close eye on it and don't post it in the forums until it's grown up. Share this post Link to post

It was expected.) Your Quote is an excellent point, Olympe. I wasn't thinking of that currently... hopefully the shiny NON CB babies I have on my scroll will grow up before then. The thing is, we don't KNOW when they will be given out, do we? How can we take precautions if we don't know when? Edited January 18, 2015 by Silverswift Share this post Link to post

Posted January 18, 2015 (edited) Prize dragons cannot get sick or die from being view-bombed. The CB prizes that will be given out, no... the thing is that any other prizes out there... the non-CB prize offsprings... CAN become sick. Also, people will e trying to find the new CBs as that quote says, so... Edited January 18, 2015 by Silverswift Share this post Link to post

Posted January 18, 2015 Also, since it's been a few pages: Look HERE to see if you won And HERE for advice for winners Share this post Link to post

Posted January 18, 2015 I can't wait to see the new codes. I hope nobody picks music again. I'm still upset over my stupid capitalization. If I was to ever win again, I would probably pick something food related. I love food. Just think of all the possibilities: donut pizza steak foood omnom toast bread sushi chips fries salad mango peach salsa Or or or, what if somebody chose the code movie? Movie and Music. Wouldn't that be grand. <3 omnom! The perfect all around code for food Can't wait to see all the new codes :3 Share this post Link to post
Posted January 18, 2015 Grats everyone! Enjoy your eyes and hopefully they will grow up heathly Share this post Link to post
Posted January 18, 2015 Yes, please repeat what I said, because I had a prize die last year from being viewbombed because people click anything prize in hatcheries. Actually, right now is a good time to start keeping an eye out. As soon as people saw the prize winners were notified they swarmed the hatcheries. As a point, I have a tinsel hatchling who is now well over 8000 views because people don't know the prizes aren't out yet. I'm just glad the awesome things I have right now aren't prizes so people ignore them lol. Share this post Link to post
