Posted January 3, 2018 It disappeared as soon as Christmas 'ended' officially (event not included). It seems to only display when it's 'relevant'. I'd rather have it year-round, personally. Share this post Link to post

Posted January 3, 2018 I was wondering if anyone knows if a bot (Discord chat bot, to be specific) to alert you if your things get sick would be against DC's rules? Not sure if this has been asked before but if it has, I'd love to know. Share this post Link to post

I don't know for sure, but I would say probably. There was a hatchery that checked scrolls for sickness, but it had to remove that feature. I think it was because the sickness information is not actually in the data accessible via API, but only in the HTML page that is intended to be viewed through a browser, and automatically requesting/analyzing that page is not allowed. (Which is what the bot would have to do, I assume.) I can't find it in the terms and conditions now, but I'm quite sure I read something like it a few years ago. Share this post Link to post

Posted January 3, 2018 It's too bad that badge isn't in a more accessible place. It will soon be deeply buried. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 3, 2018 Anyone wanting to use it can ask anyone who has it in their sig through - that was usually what happened with the EATW ones. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 3, 2018 Well, I see Ruby Eyes has added it into her "How to use the new forum" post, too, so maybe that will help. Share this post Link to post

Posted January 4, 2018 what are the chances a Silver dragon bred with a Script dragons breeds a silver dragon? Share this post Link to post
Posted January 4, 2018 1 minute ago, zombiemoon said: what are the chances a Silver dragon bred with a Script dragons breeds a silver dragon? Very, VERY low (no numbers are available to players). But Silvers are Rare and Scripts are VERY, so getting a COMMON out of them isn't exactly easy at the time (in case of older commons) Share this post Link to post

It sounds like you're thinking of Eatw in which case it didn't scan pages for sickness, it literally avoided things getting sick by using DC's sickness formula, which is blatantly against the rules. And even then, the code wasn't removed. Edit: Someone informed me that you may be talking about a thing Silvi's had had, which I didn't even know had been a thing, which was the breed stats checking and TJ has a post right here explaining why that was an issue. He's also posted elsewhere explaining that hatcheries having a "breeds in the hatchery" statistic is a bad idea because people will look at those stats and rely on them to say whether something is becoming too common or not when hatchery contents by no means compares to the actual breed numbers on the entirety of DC (massive paraphrasing, I'll have to go find the post and link for better informing (maybe I'm thinking of this post though but I don't think I had read that post before now hmmm)). Although now that I've found this, the part about bypassing the API somewhat answers my question about checking things for sickness. Edited January 4, 2018 by StarSea Share this post Link to post
Posted January 4, 2018 Can I start a thread somewhere in the forum offering to write descriptions for other people? I know there have to be some people who'd like to have descs but don't feel ike their writing (or their English) is good enough. Would that be breaking any rules though? Share this post Link to post
Posted January 4, 2018 What are the chances of influence failing? It's always worked for me so far (though I've only been using it for a couple months). I know you can use precog to check if influence is successful, so does that mean there's a fail rate? Share this post Link to post
Posted January 4, 2018 I've had influence fail. More recently I had it fail twice just before Christmas. I use influence on most of my dragons though and it doesn't fail often. It seems to happen in clumps. Share this post Link to post
