Sorry I didn't see your post whitebaron, I was just looking at the records listed on the first page...like the one for "Most Tinsels bred in a row"...ones like that. Where you can kill any commons you bred so it looks like all you bred from it it tinsels. I have only seen this done with rare types...like tinsels or metals or such.

**DC RECORDS (ZAXIAN) UPDATE**

 

Hi all,

 

This is not a standard 'update', rather a heads up about a bit of an overhaul of the main post.

 

So, over the last couple of weeks I've been endeavouring to dump all the Dc Records info into a spreadsheet with the idea of automating some of the more tedious tasks associated with updating the thread. As a result, I've had an opportunity to note all the various inconsistencies with how the main thread presented records and have a go at rectifying some of them.

 

One of the main results of this change is now all records that previously referenced just a dragon now list the dragon's owner as well, for consistency. I suggested a couple of posts back that I was musing over this - I had a couple of positive responses and did a quick poll of some people on the IRC (none of whom objected) so I hope that no one will be too upset by the change! For reference, where the scroll is listed as secondary to the 'main' record, it's listed in grey to reduce the visual impact.

 

A direct result of this change is also that the main 'post' now actually spreads across two posts, because it would seem I hit the line or character limit on the post. Fortunately the thread had a couple of 'spare' posts on the main page - the News and FAQ posts have now moved down one post to allow for this.

 

Another fairly major change covers some of the general 'Breeders' records (so records like 'Breeder with the most female dragons'). I've now mirrored the records listed on TJ's official page, populating the missing ones with the scroll names of individuals who previously held similar records (in the process I've actually updated the values for each of these records, as of earlier today). I've also removed a duplicate 'breeder with the most adult dragons' which was listed twice in two different sections (sorry Absolute!), and a record for 'scroll with the most adults without frozen hatchies' because a) the user who held it had frozen hatchies on their scroll, and B) the wording is ambiguous.

 

You may also have notices that missing 'Breeder with the most of x breed' records are now listed with 'no record yet'. I've been mulling over whether to do this with the lineage records, but given that it would approximately double the length of that section, I'll hold off for now.

 

Other changes:

- Records now consistently show the forum name, but link the scroll names of user, unless the user has specifically indicated otherwise.

- I've been trying to track down user/forum names for some of the blue/red records, so some of those have now turned into 'normal' records. For those that haven't - remember, red records can be replaced by any other record (including a 'lower' one)!

 

At some point I'll be making (parts of) the spreadsheet available for public viewing via a google doc, but that'll have to wait for now.

 

----

Discussion:

Feedback is good! I'd like to hear people's thoughts about the changes, as well as any other suggestions. Particularly:

- Would you like to see actual dragons names in place of the 'view' links in the various lineage records?

Cheers,

Changes look great, Zaxian! I don't think dragon names are necessary because names change all the time, whereas a code never will.

Title of Record: Breeder with the most Seawyrm Pygmies

Name of Submittant (forum name): LibbyLishly

Scroll Name (link): http://dragcave.net/user/LibbyLishly

Proof for Record: Near the end of my scroll (a few who are waiting for names may be at the beginning of the scroll).

What has changed?: I now have 216 Seawyrm Pygmies. (As that total changes, I'll continue to edit this post until I see an update with my name in it. Some might still be hatchies when the count is taken.)

Hey, Zaxian!

Nice (and hard) work you've been doing. The changes seem fair and make the Book clearer, so, thanks for this update, great work indeed.

About your question:

- Would you like to see actual dragons names in place of the 'view' links in the various lineage records?

At first, I thought it'd be awesome to show the dragon's names instead of 'view'. It would value player's lineages, but won't it end up hitting the character limit on the post (again)? (Maybe not today, but in the future?) Also, Libby has a good point: the code will never change.

Rejected

Record comments

- *Regarding the -kin records, I believe the definition of 'prize kin' is essentially 'prize fail' (backed up by a quick straw poll in the IRC), thus I've only counted those dragons that are direct children of a prize x other dragon pairing - excluding various 'bred kins' from two -kin parents. (Also, note to shovedtbh specifically: there were only 128 stairstep tinsel-kins listed, not the 129 mentioned.)

Cheers,

Title of Record: Dragon that took the longest to grow up

Name of Submittant (forum name): iya_kin

Scroll Name (link): Iya_kin

Proof for Record: http://dragcave.net/lineage/mESL

I don't know if my dragon counts, as it's from 2009, but I'd like to nominate Everlasting Autumns Grand Finale (stolen on Dec 17 2008 - grew up on Feb 05 2009). He's a result my crazy idea to keep an autumn egg bounce between scrolls (and gain 24 hrs) and hatch it in spring. The project of 3 people ended on Feb 02 2009 after the four project eggs grew up. mESL is the oldest egg of the project, and the last to grow up.

Record comments

- * Since the 'most dragons' records have had a bit of a reorganisation since Hei's post was submitted, I've had a nose through and applied it to similar records that were newly created previously. Hence why the categories might not match up exactly with what was originally posted.

I'm not sure about frozen hatchlings records but -

 

- For a non-existing "most of breed" record, the minimum is 20 of the breed. Please be aware that "most of breed" records only include adult dragons.

 

You need to have 20 before you can submit a new record. ^^

Rejected

- Pippyspot has 68 total adult normal Black dragons, but this has been beaten by thenameisplissken's submission

 

Postponed

- As before

- Ilune Willowlef's 'Breeder with the most Spitfires dragons', as the scroll is currently set to show eggs/hatchies only and so I can't check the record. 23.08 - now added: Ilune Willolef has 903 total adult spitfire dragons.

 

Record notes

* @Idril, in the post edited on 22nd Aug you listed that you had 1070 adults - fyi I've checked the 1067 figure with two counting methods so I'm fairly confident that it's correct.

** @Ilune, I made the count 143, not the 144 listed. That record also takes the 'dragon with the most children' record, which I've given to Valgarv - let me know if you'd rather Philia had it.

*** @thenameisplissken I do not know where you got your count of 723 from.

 

----

Comments:

- Regarding whitebaron's suggestion of 'most eggs laid in a row'... Go for it. This record will work as follows: most eggs parented by a single dragon in a row (where 'in a row' mean with each consecutive egg's 'bred' date within 13 days of the previous egg).

For reference, I personally dislike the existing 'most tinsels bred in a row' 'most trio's bred in a row' records because of the difficulty verifying them after the event - as there is no page available for 'breeding results' of a dragon that includes unsuccessful breedings or eggs that have been killed since.

**DC RECORDS (ZAXIAN) CATCH-UP UPDATE**

 

Rejected

- Daydreamer09's submission of an 18th gen Orchdrake - you cannot submit records for dragons you don't own.

Ah, I see. I wasn't sure about whether or not the actual breeder had an ability to update the record at all. There are a few records for 'longest purebreds' that were originally lineages I worked on myself and others adopted and posted as records.

 

Would it be possible to give credit to some of the breeders of these lineages and not just the owners? It just seems unfair that the owners get credit, but not the person who actually made them.

Would it be possible to give credit to some of the breeders of these lineages and not just the owners? It just seems unfair that the owners get credit, but not the person who actually made them.

Firstly, the point of that rule is to prevent two things:

- Users claiming records for themselves with other people's dragons.

- Users unexpectedly having extra traffic on their scroll because someone has submitted their dragon for them.

The second of these is the most pertinent reason that you can't just submit a record even if you have bred it (and the parents are both provably on your scroll).

 

I see two ways you could get around this, the most obvious and straightforward being to breed another dragon with the same lineage (if you still have the parents) and then submit that for the record. Alternately, you could ask the current owner to submit their dragon and ask them to credit you as well (I'll put it where currently the 'lineage name' can go).

I actually want to second this. IIRC when I submitted the ridgewing, I tried to shove all credit onto Daydreamer since she did all the hard work and just submitted my dragon since it was the longest version. I do think it'd be fair in the records to give credit to who did the work, especially for lineages that one person did most or all of the work on. JMHO ^^

 

Although it seems the above would work since you said "Alternately, you could ask the current owner to submit their dragon and ask them to credit you as well (I'll put it where currently the 'lineage name' can go)."?

This thread looks odd without the poll now. It's like it's nakey. =p

Thanks for updating the records! I feel bad now that you had to go through my scroll without it sorted. I hope you have some better method than just searching through the mess that is my scroll! D:
