I had to work today (I had all of last week off though and this coming weekend off so we will celebrate then :3) Work was slow to start, but not a bad day! I made a new friend and got to catch up with some of the others I don't get to see often since we usually work different areas. 19 hours ago, trystan said: i bred some seawyrns between yesterday and today for my own project. i have to wait until next tuesday for the the final egg. since i figured i'd bred Simon and Kaylee before, they'll give me an egg.... right? nope, they weren't interested. but now i've used fertility on Kaylee, and made a note on my calendar for next week. ...Is your lineage based on the show Firefly? if so I am so excited, I LOVE that show!

Posted April 21, 2022 (edited) Good morning CPA ❤️ Today is warm and sunny, with a gentle breeze... Perfect fishing weather, perfect for surfing, and even better for going to the beach So I was looking for an Antarean egg in the cave and caught this: https://dragcave.net/lineage/cdExT Not sure how I got so lucky to not only catch a Dino but a legendary of trio?!: https://dragcave.net/lineage/1C1nt I'm in awe. But I did also manage to catch 2 Antareans. ❤️ Lineage building is underway for them now ^^ *sets out some homemade cookies and lemonade, takes a brownie to snack on* Ty Lagie ❤️ Edited April 23, 2022 by purpledragonclaw Changed view links to lineage links Share this post Link to post

Posted April 21, 2022 I'm always in awe of people who can name their dragons. I don't understand how they have the creativity and energy. Please share/teach me your ways. I started strong when I first joined and now only 27% of my dragons have names. I'd bet at least half of the ones I've named have labels (CB Reddrag 1, for example) for names. On the bright side, all my attempts at naming and organizing my dragons means I've been able to catch more of the FoE eggs. 🤭 Share this post Link to post

Agreed ❤️ Although for me personally, it helps to have a plan set out ahead of time. I like to breed and name dragons for a purpose, and I tend to use Bible verses. And that means I have to plan out their names beforehand too. And therefore, nearly every dragon lineage I do; they have names. Otherwise the vast majority of my CB dragons are nameless, for now.

Please share/teach me your ways. i now have a rule in place: don't pick up the egg or breed the dragons if you don't have a name for it. yes, i flounder lots when there's a new release, and i get twitchy until TJ has adults, and then i use the dragon's name and something about their personality to name them. my Wisterias are types of.... Wisterias. i'm doing this Seawyrm lineage because i got this idea to name them all after birds that dive in the water after their prey (huh, i just told this to someone over on discord earlier....lol). everyone is now named on my spreadsheet. then i'll get ideas from characters in a tv show or book series i've read. i list them all out on my spreadsheet (i have a "Fandoms" tab), and then plan the dragons, if they're individual, separate dragons, or a lineage. i have yet to do a lyrical lineage though. it's a deal i made with myself when i 'came back' in the spring of 2019. you can see my fandoms and some of my other name inspirations listed in my Dragon Index.

I see we share a similar thought process See I made the same deal with myself but, I looked at my over 100 CB dragons and gave up after 4. Would rather take it easy on myself, and only name the ones I know I can name. Instead of favorite tv shows, or themes.. Lyrical is basically using a song/book chapter (I use the bible) to plan out the names instead. Saves effort by allot. just need to space the names out nicely. Maybe I'll take the oath someday to name all my dragons. But I'd have to name all my current ones first. Share this post Link to post
Posted April 21, 2022 I use codes, lines I like from shows and songs, random stuff going on around the forum, other stuff. My chickens and cheeses have punny names, kind of. 659 of 6,963 are unnamed. If it weren't April, I'd say we were in a small hurricane. It's been extremely windy for two days now and today we've had the misty rains then pouring then misty that I associate with hurricanes. Rain wasn't even in the forecast I saw yesterday. Share this post Link to post
