Tiny Little Questions

[purplehaze]

I'm I just having incredibly bad luck, or is breeding success way down today?  Out of 35 breedings I have had 15 no interest results! These are dragons I have successfully bred many times before and they are all different breeds. I have had some bad days before, but really? Almost half failed?

[Terces]

I've had some unusually poor breeding results this week too (lots of no egg/no interest). I wonder if dragons also feel exhausted during the winter Holidays blitz.

is manual sort working for anyone else, I haven't been able to save my sort for the past few days

I press the save button, it stays blue for a second or 2 and then does nothing

[Ruby Eyes]

Yep, works for me, with ~7500 creatures to sort.

Any word on a Nov release? It's kind of the last day, LOL

also, I had 9 refusals in a row on various pygmy dragons, so yeah, WOW something is different.

[purplehaze]

Seems unlikely at this point that we will get a November release. In fact, even if it came tonight it would be a December release. But TJ never warns us ahead of time, so no one knows any more than you do!

So, now that it seems I'm back... anyone have any ideas on keeping track off your lineages and dragon mates without using spreadsheets? Kinda hate the sheets

Groups and naming Example The dragons with an 'x' at the end are the ones I still need offspring of. I have about a 3 digit number worth of breeding groups.

 

Also this got recently created after I bred everything that had a perfect mate. They get kicked out when I managed to get a mate.

Ohhhh, didn't even know we have that. That's great for keeping track of projects, just need to think of a way to keep track of mates then

Since mates sort to the top of possible breeding partners I never found that much of a problem except for cases where I needed to switch because of refusals. Also the groups have their very own sorting so you can put them together in their group

 

Groups are TEH BEST.

[PointOfOrigin]

Yeah, mates are kinda tricky since no interest guys end up on top of the list

Just a couple of quick questions... First off, if two dragons successfully breed at some point does that mean that they will never refuse each other in future breeding attempts? Also, as someone who has yet to even attempt creating an Undead Dragon, if you successfully make a Zombie hatchling will it grow into an adult if it isn't frozen? I know that may seem like a stupid question, but they aren't exactly alive so I wasn't sure.

 

Thanks in advance!

1) In most circumstances, dragons will never refuse once they've successfully bred once. However, if the pair has only been bred during a holiday, when refusals are turned off, they may refuse the first time they're bred outside of a holiday.

 

2) Not a stupid question! They remain hatchlings and are auto-frozen. And it doesn't take up a freeze slot, either.

Thanks for the fast reply! Follow-up question, what are freeze slots? Haha

It's the term we use to refer to the number of times you can freeze a hatchling in two weeks. If you can freeze 10 hatchlings in a two-week period, you have ten freeze "slots". If you freeze a hatchling, you use a "slot" and it is unavailable for two weeks. So, if you have a limit of freezing 10 hatchlings in 2 weeks and have already frozen 4, you have used 4 "slots" and have 6 left. So what I meant to say re: zombies is that when the hatchlings are automatically frozen it doesn't have the same effect as if you used the freeze action yourself. It doesn't count against the number of freeze actions you have available and there's no two-week cooldown.

Ah, I see! Thanks for educating me.

It's been December 19 - 25 for several years in a row, and I doubt this year will be an exception.

If you hit a refusal with a holiday out of season, will it breed with the refused mate IN season ? or if it already refused have I HAD it ?

You can breed in season. It shows up at the very bottom of the list of breedable dragons.

WHEW ! Then I shall go breed the OTHER pair to get the mate I need ! Thanks !

You're welcome! There used to be an issue where you had to go to the other mate first, but I think that has been fixed as well. I know that all of my refused dragons were available to breed during Halloween.
