Posted August 16, 2018 Really? The only odd thing then is that adults also seemed to temporarily go poof. Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2018 I was in Silvi's yesterday and clicked a low-time egg. It turned into a Neglected Egg. I was hoping that this would increase my "Eggs Observed" from 4 to 5, since it is really hard to find these particular eggs. However, it did not register in the encyclopedia. I tried clicking to the parents and clicking back to the egg through the lineage page, but it still didn't register. I re-clicked it through the hatchery after it turned, as well. It changed scrolls in this short time, so that could also be a factor. So the main question is, did the encyclopedia Observation not register because I viewed the Neglected's breed before it turned? Should I avoid that? Is there something else which could keep an Observation from registering? I like to give the low-times extra attention, but if that's what kept the final Neglected I needed from registering, I might just have to wait on the <1 days... Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2018 I suspect that clicking on it before it changed was the problem. It counted as that breed, but then didn't count as an ND because you had already viewed that same egg before. I am not 100% sure of that, but it makes sense. Share this post Link to post

If they hid it whenever they weren't on DC and unhid whenever they were, that would explain the temporary poofing. Share this post Link to post

I am not 100% sure of that, but it makes sense. Really a shame, if so. Guess I'll continue the hunt, but hold off on clicking until finding that elusive 5th (well, 6th). They'll still get UVs, though, so I guess that's something. Share this post Link to post

TJ nixed it so that you can no longer snoop on an egg's actual nature before grabbing it. Came here wondering the same thing. This is very annoying... Maybe I'd like to see if the egg I want is an actual Pink and not a Flamingo, or something like that, before being stuck with it for five hours. Gee thanks, TJ... Share this post Link to post

Posted August 17, 2018 I don't think this is actually going to be a problem, seeing that eggs cost 100 shards minimum, and then only multiples of 100. To take advantage of this may require to play consistently another couple of years. Share this post Link to post

Aye, I went and grabbed another egg to see if the shard count would keep climbing, but it didn't. {It's driving me a little nuts 'cause it's not an even number anymore D:} Share this post Link to post

Maybe I want to know if I'm getting a Tan Ridgewing or not too, or trying to see what the "strange markings" egg is. Edited August 17, 2018 by Spiteful_Crow Share this post Link to post
Posted August 17, 2018 (edited) It was always a loophole that people exploited (including me). Now it's been closed. This debate is pretty much already ongoing in Suggestions. Edited August 17, 2018 by Aalbiel Share this post Link to post
Posted August 18, 2018 question: why kill instead of abandon? Kill - you are stuck with the egg taking up a slot for at least 24 hours Abandon - you only have to wait a few hours to free up a slot Share this post Link to post
Posted August 18, 2018 Killing an egg has a very small chance to instantly hatch it, although it's so rare that most people don't bother. Share this post Link to post
Posted August 18, 2018 (edited) Also, there are people who mis-breed, like breed a really nice lineage to a messy or something, and hate the idea of that 'ugly' dragon even existing, so they'd rather kill it. Not that I understand that, I've just heard people say that before. edit: Anyone have any idea why the Alpine has so few eggs right now? At :41, just 1 minute after the shuffle, there are already only two eggs there. It's been like that the last four 5-minute shuffles. Usually there are enough eggs generated that you hardly *ever* see a blank spot like that.... Any clue what's going on? Edited August 18, 2018 by HeatherMarie Share this post Link to post

Kill - you are stuck with the egg taking up a slot for at least 24 hours Abandon - you only have to wait a few hours to free up a slot To provide an example of what HM said: I am making a very specific lineage that recreates the Ptolemaic Dynasty. When my dragons give me the wrong breed egg, I don't want to just abandon it because it's going to create siblings that shouldn't exist, going out to someone else's scroll, being named something non-conforming and possibly having offspring that shouldn't be related to mine. So I kill it (specifically viewbomb it, that takes less than 24 hours and doesn't steal my kill slots). HM: no clue, people on the Discord noticed this too but idk where it came from Share this post Link to post
Posted August 19, 2018 Are we on sunrises or sunsets right now? I thought sunset, but I forgot DC time, so I think it might hatch sunrise? In the next 30 mins Share this post Link to post
