Besides separated charts for caught, bred and total number there are also additional charts for Light Luminae starting from day 8, so they show days with highest number of reported Luminae in the centre, not on the opposite sides of chart.

Posted October 25, 2017 Is there a similar chart for Aurax? I'm curious if they're only influenced by Cirion. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 25, 2017 I think in one of the earlier charts made by @Verse, the pattern seemed to show it alternating with Cirion more than Aurax phases... I have to go back go find it though... Share this post Link to post

Thought that I had it somewhere, but it seems like (after we connected Dark Luminae with Cirion cycle) I haven't made charts for Aurax at all (back then). But I was able to do this one a while ago, so here it is: It contains the same data as the ones that are quoted in the thread. Edited October 25, 2017 by Verse Share this post Link to post
Posted October 25, 2017 So it looks like they ARE tied to both moons, in a way that seems to work a lot like how I guessed it might a long time ago. Both moons seem to show a big spike of Dark Luminas and a drop in normal Luminas when they are new. Since the moons aren't in sync, this must average out somehow, or perhaps one is more influential than the other. Intuitively I would guess that Cirion is more important for Dark Luminas and Aurax for normal Luminas, but whatever it is, it looks like it's pretty clear at this point that a New moon = more Dark Luminas and a Full moon = more normal Luminas. Pretty cool! Share this post Link to post
Posted October 25, 2017 The moons are totally in sync: When Aurax is full, Cirion will also always be full. It's just that Cirion's cycle is exactly half as long as Aurax's, so when Aurax is new, Cirion will also be full. Keep in mind that you are looking at data from when ratios between light and dark Luminae were still heavily skewed towards breeding dark ones. Share this post Link to post
Posted October 25, 2017 (edited) Actually, I've been planning to make charts for new spreadsheet for some time now and today I finally found some time to do that. There're 1378 Lumina eggs reported on old sheet and 1113 on new one. Old (first) vs. new (second) sheet based charts for Cirion cycle: Light Luminae caught or seen in biomes: Spoiler Light Luminae bred: Spoiler Dark Luminae caught or seen in biomes: Spoiler Dark Luminae bred: Spoiler Old and new charts for Light Lumina and caught/seen Dark Lumina are quite similar and show something actually. But it's much more difficult to say this about data for bred Dark Luminae Edit Forgot about adding links to other charts, mostly with comparisons Lights and Darks: Old charts, Cirion lunar cycle: https://imgur.com/a/nD7Tk New charts: Cirion lunar cycle: https://imgur.com/a/jxPsR Aurax lunar cycle: https://imgur.com/a/vkLtK Aurax and Cirion lunar cycles: https://imgur.com/a/ZajtQ Edited October 26, 2017 by Verse Share this post Link to post
Posted October 25, 2017 (edited) Also, to find out the chances to get Light/Dark Lumina on certain days of cycle, I started to note the breeding attempts that gave no egg (excluding refusals) too. It's still in progress, but for now I recorded quite high number of records (around 75 attempts) for 10 of 16 days of Cirion cycle. I mentioned this before, but now I have much more data for some days. Here is the result: Spoiler Here are separated charts for Cirion cycle and the same ones for Aurax and Cirion phases: https://imgur.com/a/YdtWy And with Aurax phases only: https://imgur.com/a/7TPwZ Edited October 26, 2017 by Verse Share this post Link to post

That means they aren't in sync in the way I meant. The two moons aren't always in the same phase. The fact that it's possible for Aurax to be new while Cirion is full is exactly what I meant by not being in sync. If they were, they'd both always be in the same phase. And yes, that's true, but wasn't looking at overall numbers anyway, just the way the numbers peaked and dipped. There may be more Luminas being born now, but that doesn't change (or shouldn't) the pattern I was observing. The pattern, in terms of when Dark Luminas are more common and when Luminas are more common, should be the same regardless of whether the specific numbers are higher or lower at any given time because the lunar rules we're trying to discover presumably haven't changed.

Posted October 26, 2017 Thank you Verses for the Charts! They are always great! Looks like we really need to bred more dragons to get the Bred Ratios right. The Catch ratios seem very similar to previous data we've gathered so far. Though, for the Aurax Charts, I think you need to take out the Cirion Cycle from them, so we can just see how egg laying is affected by only Aurax. It won't affect the distribution, but it would make it easier to read. So, there should be like 3 versions of the chart, 1 with only Cirion phases present, 1 with only Aurax phase present, and 1 with both phases present. Is that understandable? Now on to the really late phase post -- - Starting at 8:00 PM EDT/DC Wednesday, October 25, 2017, today is Day 9 of the Cirion Lunar Cycle.

I'm not entirely sure what you are teying to say? If you are saying there is no concrete pattern then you are right, but there are trends: - The closer the phases are to a Cirion Full Moon, the more likely you are to get normal Luminae. - The closer the phases are to a Cirion New Moon, the more likely you are to get Dark Luminae. From the data we can say that. Though. Im not sure that's what you are looking for. -- Thank you again Verse! You are swell! Share this post Link to post

Posted October 27, 2017 No, no, you've got it backwards. That was exactly the point I was making, that there are clearly visible trends in the data and because the underlying rules responsible for those trends have not (presumably) changed, the amount of data shouldn't matter after a point. That was a response to someone who pointed out that the data from the chart I had been looking at before was using earlier data when the ratio was skewed to Dark Luminas because they were new. My point was that shouldn't matter because what I was commenting on in my original post were those fixed trends. It doesn't matter how many overall of each kind there are; it's still true that a new moon means more Darks are born and a full moon means more Lights are born. The reason I was talking about the moons being out of sync is that a while ago now in this thread I posted a hypothesis that they were responsive to both moons in some way. It turns out I was at least partly right in that I predicted the new moon-Dark Lumina connection. The Aurax data suggests there's a connection to it as well. I was saying that I think my original idea is correct - that both moons matter and their phases are somehow both checked or averaged to get that day's odds for the two breeds. It may be even more complex than I thought though because it looks like from that chart with the odds that some days were just plain bad days to get either one. Share this post Link to post
