Posted May 14, 2013 (edited) **DC RECORDS (MAKESHIFT) UPDATE (COMPLETE)** New Records - 33 Shimmer-Scales found on Sir Barton's scroll (Sorry, record beaten by Fourty-Two!) - 590 Golden Wyverns found on Hellen's scroll - 1420 Waters found on Leidarendi's scroll - 56 Shimmer-Scales found on 42 (FortyTwo)'s scroll Corrections Thanks to Zaxian: - PB/Perfect Alt Black iI5tD was linked to a Turpentine instead - 4th gen PB/Perfect Royal Crimson 8VTYk was missed earlier - 7th gen Perfect Mint MGPI0 was missed earlier - 5th gen PB Seawyrm XHYme was missed earlier Thanks to ZzelaBusya: - 1202 Ungendereds record update was botched earlier Denied - None Discussion? While Million-Mile Baby has an impressive lineage, I'm not so sure how to fairly count that without opening the doors for the same thing done with every other breed. On that note, would people want this? Staicase/V lineages would be acceptable as they're fairly well-known/common patterns that are easily limited to one (or two, in the case of Staircase) per breed. So what about these "Chevron" lines? Should those be recorded as well? Just to throw it out there as a proposal for criteria: Longest line with no more than two (three in the case of hybrids) of a single species that isn't the same as the record-holder's? For the non-record posts: I may end up giving them an overhaul; despite attempting to leave them untouched before. Anyways, this should finally be caught up. Anything beyond this, I will need help for counting. My method for counting dragons is about to be disabled. EDIT: I know I fail at wording. Additions being considered currently: - Longest PB stairtstep of breed X - Longest PB Spiral of breed X - Longest PB... (what are the V lineages called?) of breed X (equal generations on both sides to count) - Makeshift (a.k.a. Dc Records) Edited May 16, 2013 by Dc Records Share this post Link to post
Posted May 15, 2013 Just to throw it out there as a proposal for criteria: Longest line with no more than two (three in the case of hybrids) of a single species that isn't the same as the record-holder's? - Makeshift (a.k.a. Dc Records)[/i] Hmmm I don't know if I got that right? Like, I could not submit a record for the longest PB Thunder lineage, because I am holding the record of the Thunders ? If so, I would be against it o3o. I mean the others who would post the highest lineage would not be the true record then . Anyway, my suggestion have been overread again . To split the longest lines into at least Even Generation and Stairstep Generation, because both put up a different kind of effort to achieve ^^. Share this post Link to post

Dc Records) I agree RE: Million-Mile Baby - it's a beautiful lineage, but so are many out there. And the idea of opening up 'records' for all combinations of 'patterned' lineages is a bit terrifying ...Possibly it could be a general record for "longest EG, non-IB lineage with a consistent pattern, consisting of more than two breeds"? --- I'm sortof of the opinion that staircases should be limited to one record per breed (I think the difference between an up and a down staircase is pretty trivial). Possibly having a record for perfect spirals as well? I'm also less keen on 'V' lineages, because they're significantly less common and require you to effectively 'end' the lineages ('V's aren't really continuable?). Additionally, if you have separate records for both up and down staircases, as well as 'V' lineages, I think it highly likely that the same person will end up holding all three. So essentially, if it were my choice I'd suggest that the categories were added for: - longest perfect stair (of x breed) - longest perfect spiral (of x breed)... this would also open up the possibility of: - longest perfect two-breed stair/spiral (of x *tinsel*/*shimmer* colour)... which in my opinion should be limited to tins/shimmers because it's basically impossible to breed a single-breed stair of them - as well as the "general" record of longest perfect two-breed stair/spiral/checker (this would be a 'single' record, not a "for x breed" record because the combinations would be excessive otherwise). --- I am also happy volunteer to help with counting...

PM me when it needs doing? Which is why I suggested a split in even and stair ONLY. Stair should not matter, if up or down - since it is a stair nonetheless. I have a 7th even gen PB Thunder atm, that tooks WAY more effort than a stair. Same goes for any other breed, plus you can make staircases a lot faster than even gens. So there is not a big change to what we have now, for lineages, here atm. Just the splitting into the biggest / most common lineage looks. Share this post Link to post

Posted May 15, 2013 RE: MILLION MILE BABY This lineage took me almost an entire year to breed...but regaedless of that,it was specifically chosen to be submitted AFTER the "change in breeding " made by T.J./Forum about a year ago,where it states specifically that as of then "GEODES MAY NOW BREED WITH OTHER BREEDS OF DRAGONS IN FORUM" which made it seem as if it was all just a "first time breeding/DC submission of this TYPE of geode breeding,which is NOW perfectly acceptable" under forum/lineage breeding rules. Im perfectly willing to name the lineage as the Mods would like,just want the lineage to be acknowledged for what it is...a NON-DESIGNER totally acceptable lineage breeding under the rules of forum itself.

Posted May 16, 2013 Im perfectly willing to name the lineage as the Mods would like,just want the lineage to be acknowledged for what it is...a NON-DESIGNER totally acceptable lineage breeding under the rules of forum itself. The discussion of this lineage has nothing to do with whether this lineage is 'acceptable under the forum rules' or whether you are 'permitted' to breed your dragons like this - of course you can breed anything you want :S. There seems to be some misunderstanding going on here over the meaning of the word "designer"? This is a "designer lineage", in that it was "designed" by yourself, to follow a particular pattern that you chose (and I note that it was you yourself that called it a "designer lineage" first, in your original post, so I'm confused by why you're now so vehemently insisting it is "non-designer"). Many other people have spent comparable amounts of time creating lineages for their own purposes with different patterns and designs, so the real question is: a) whether the lineage is sufficiently noteworthy to warrant having a record, and if so what category said record might fall under.

Posted May 16, 2013 (edited) IAM IN AGREEMENT!!(Honestly,I dont want this thing getting so O.T...but its my baby! You can understand fighting for something youve worked hard for Im merely stating it was MISTAKENLY formatted as a DESIGNER lineage(which has its own rules under DC Records),not that I didnt DESIGN lineage tongue.gif ! And all I want is to be told what format it falls under so everybody wont be making all the fuss about it.I believe in its validity to be in DC Records,but I cant get the straight answers re: format it falls under...exactly what you are saying.No argument here!

Posted May 21, 2013 I rather like Zaxian's "longest EG, non-IB lineage with a consistent pattern, consisting of more than two breeds" tag since that seems to be the most simple solution to how to classify Rockin' On's Geode lineage. *two cents* Share this post Link to post
Posted May 21, 2013 comments for new catagories: Perhaps first would be to define the two catagories you have now: Lineage - Purebred and Lineage - Perfect. It seems they are both meant to be for purebreds and one is for stairstep/spiral/V's, and the other is for even gens. I would keep Stairstep/Spiral/V's in the same place they are now. I would suggest adding "even gen" to the Lineage - Perfect heading to be more clear. For the PB overall longest lineage (suggested BlueIce): it is in the thread's title heading "the longest" so it would seem that single record should be added to each the Lineage - Purebred and the Lineage- Perfect catagory. Neglected records: Are you going to include a "first Neglected from xyz breed" for each breed of dragon on the Dragcave? And how does one prove what breed a cb Neglected came from, or must this be designated as 2nd gen or higher qualification? Zaxian's suggestion: the "general" record of longest perfect two-breed stair/spiral/checker (this would be a 'single' record, not a "for x breed" record because the combinations would be excessive otherwise) seems very reasonable. Also Zaxian makes a very good point there are many admirable lineages deserving recognition. I agree with a new catagory such as Zaxian has suggested: "longest EG, non-IB lineage with a consistent pattern, consisting of more than two breeds" Share this post Link to post

I would suggest adding "even gen" to the Lineage - Perfect heading to be more clear. I think that adding a clarification of what the 'perfect' lineage means to the FAQ at least would be a good idea - I'm pretty sure that the terminology of 'perfect' lineage (meaning PB and EG) is pretty common, but I can see that some people may be less familiar with it. The "Lineage - purebred" is not just for spirals/stairs, it's for any PB line (no matter the pattern). There will always been some crossover between the Perfect and PB (as a perfect lineage is by definition PB), and there would be similar crossover for PB and Spiral/Stair. For the PB overall longest lineage (suggested BlueIce): it is in the thread's title heading "the longest" so it would seem that single record should be added to each the Lineage - Purebred and the Lineage- Perfect catagory. I agree. We cant get CB Geodes - so Geodes are still PB for me! To follow up from this and my comment above - it might also be worth adding a part to the FAQ to say that for hybrids (and possibly stripe colour variations), PB records hold even if the CB dragons are a different breed/colour. --------- Category: Title of Record:Most Replys Off One PM Name of Submitant(forumname):Blackbolt101 And White1143 Scroll Name (link): Blackbolt101's Scroll And White1143's Scroll Proof for Record: Here Reason for submitting new Record:We Thought Our PM Was Getting Long With A Whopping 56 Replys Aside from the fact that that scribd doc isn't really proof (you could type that sort of thing up easily) this record doesn't meet the requirements for a record - see the following rule: Note: to be suited for the Book of DC Records, your record must be directly linked to DragonCave (the game).

Posted May 21, 2013 I have to agree that I think the Records pertain to the dragons, and would not include the PM's in it. Share this post Link to post
Posted May 21, 2013 (edited) "Perfect" was never meant to imply purebred, but perfectly ordered, unless you are not intending to use the definition begun in the Even Gens thread. What is Perfect Generation? Perfect Generation is when you have reached a specific goal with your Even Generation-breeding. A Perfect Generation is always an Even Generation but with a bonus. For example; each and every dragon in the line is a Magi, or it’s all made up of Water/White-couples. A special goal has been achieved, more than just being Even Generation. That definition may have evolved over time but limiting it to purebreds is too limiting and purebred already has a clear definition. A purebred even gen is always perfect, but not all perfect gens are purebred. Does that make sense? He is considered Perfect, because the lineage is specifically ordered to be a perfect checker. Edit: I'm not sure you alll are aware, but I'm one of the two people who originated the Even Gens craze, and the thread. Edited May 21, 2013 by Fiona BlueFire Share this post Link to post
Posted May 21, 2013 (edited) Fiona BlueFire, thanks for that clarification. It would be nice for there to be same definitions used in all threads to prevent misunderstandings. Since the Records' lineages are of one breed, then it would appear the title for the FAQs should be clarified more as: lineage-purebred should be: Lineage - purebred Stairstep/Spiral/V's and lineage-perfect should be: Lineage - purebred Even Gen Do you agree?
