Posted July 3, 2013 (edited) XMAS in JULY 2013 EDITION 5ecret 5anta time! I've been asked if I would like to put this together again this year, and boy do I have some ideas! :: Timeline:: Wishlists Due: Monday, July 8th. Wishlist Distribution: Tuesday, July 9th Exchange Date to be determined based on participation and participant availability. :: Rules for Participation :: Active members only: must have been part of the lineage for at least 2 months. (exception: see Timey Wimey Group) You must join a group based on what you expect to GIVE, not what you expect to receive. No upper limit on gifts. Lower limit set by Tier chosen. Remember: Your giftee will have gifts on their scroll as well, so hatchlings are <3 Generation Limitations: Commons: By request only Metallic: No higher than 3rd gen (unless otherwise requested or Wibbly Group) Tinsel: No higher than 5th gen unless otherwise requested (unless otherwise requested or Wibbly Group) Shimmer: No higher than 6th gen unless otherwise requested (unless otherwise requested) :: The Gifting Tiers :: First, you need to decide which group you want to enter. Since participation generally isn't HUGE, I think we can get away with just a few tiers based on what you feel you can contribute to the 5ecret 5anta. NOTE: I'm not putting down CB metallics as something you can request because I pretty much figure anyone that got one would appreciate it. Just leave 'em off. Wibbly Group: Low Commitment Tier Requirements: No Scroll Trophy Requirement Must gift 3 dragons of category 5 or below. You may request: One 4+ gen metallic dragon One 6+ gen shimmer/tinsel dragon Any Category 5 or below dragon Wobbly Group: Rare Commitment Tier Requirements: Scroll Trophy Silver or above Must gift at least one Rare egg/hatchling. Your wishlist must include 2 uncommon or common dragons. If you cannot gift what your giftee has requested, PM me for a reassignment. You may request: Any generation metallic dragon 4+ gen shimmer/tinsel Any dragon Category 8 or below Timey Wimey Group: I Just Wanna Throw Eggs Tier Requirements: No Scroll Requirement No gifting requirement If you sign up for this group, I will PM you a list of requests that I worry may not be met. You do not have to be a member of the lineage to sign up for Timey Wimey Group. If you are a lineage member, you may still include a wishlist that will be sent to other Timey Wimeys instead of a single person. (Limit 5 Timey Wimeys - and I'm one of 'em ) Status: 3/5 Note to 5E Lineage members: You are still welcome to GIFT to Timey Wimeys of course :: How to Sign Up ::Send me a PM with the following form. Please include the day(s) of the week and times that work best for you, as well as either your timezone or in Cave-time.

Posted July 3, 2013 I want to join the 5ecret 5anta! Group: Timey Wimey! Scroll Name: kitty_stitcher I can be in IRC (day/time): Any day, usually in the evening my time... sometimes I'm around in the day, too. But I can *probably* be around after 9 pm Mountain Time. Wishlist: I... don't really have a wishlist at this point, actually. But I'd be happy to help throw eggs at other people! Share this post Link to post

Wishlist: I... don't really have a wishlist at this point, actually. But I'd be happy to help throw eggs at other people! Woohoo! Welcome to the 5ecret 5anta! Please PM this info to me. It's easier for me to keep track And you can have your wishlist be as simple as "CB blocker hatchlings" if you want. Can I help fill wishes even though I'm not a member of the lineage? Absolutely! Send me a form via PM for the Timey Wimey Group. The member restriction is mainly in place to prevent people from wandering in to whinge free metals. With your post, I think I'm going to make an adjustment for Timey Wimeys. <3 Edited July 4, 2013 by Valkiepoo Share this post Link to post

Posted July 5, 2013 Awesome idea, Valkie! Thanks for organizing PM'ing you my form. Do we try to give our giftee all 5 of their list choices? I'd like everyone to try for at least 2 things from the list, because it's not unlikely that there will be some matches where one person cannot fulfill a couple of the wishes, so ALL is not required. If you're feeling particularly gifty, you can gift as many as you like of course! I plan to gift outside the box and hunt down wishlists too buahaha. :3 Share this post Link to post
Posted July 7, 2013 Hey everyone! It's good to be back home. Christmas in July sounds fun. I've already sent Valkie my form. I haven't tried breeding anything yet. I'll just let you guys know that if I can help with wishlists, just PM me. Share this post Link to post
Posted July 8, 2013 New eggs! They both sound Elementally promising Don't know about the yellow ones for this lineage, but definitely a possible on the moon-connected ones. Share this post Link to post

Posted July 9, 2013 Valkie, I just had heart-failure reading your 5ecret 5anta post! I MISread that we were going to exchange eggs tomorrow ... not get our giftees wishlist *lol* I'm SOOO egg-locked at the moment! That would've been disastrous. Fortunately, I read it again (correctly parsing the sentences this time) and managed to restart my heart, so all is well Share this post Link to post

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to PM me. If you signed up and have not received a PM, let me know ASAP. I don't think i missed anyone, but I haven't had coffee yet today so.. it's possible. Share this post Link to post

Posted July 10, 2013 New dragon descriptions: Bleeding Moon Dragons Bleeding Moon Dragons are mostly nocturnal creatures. When outside in the sun, the small red spatters on their back grow and spread, making the dragons appear to ‘bleed’. It is said that the darker the shade of red, the more aggressive the dragon. Their tail barbs contain a powerful neuro-toxin which they use to subdue their prey. They are solitary creatures except when mating, preferring to dwell in the caves in mountains or other high places. Their large wingspan makes them fast flyers as well as fast runners, but they prefer to glide instead. Males are very competitive and will try almost everything to impress a female, who will choose their mates based on their speed and performance. Juveniles tend to form bachelor groups once fledged. Imperial Fleshcrownes Imperial Fleshcrownes are an active and playful breed. They are equally good at flying and climbing and while they are not good swimmers, they love to take an occasional dip. Fleshcrownes live in large social groups called “communities.” Adult Fleshcrownes share the responsibility of looking after the young, who are very playful and active. Even after maturing, they retain their curious and mischievous natures, often getting into trouble. The fleshy crowns on their head can be raised at will, and are usually erect when happy, excited, or scared. Fleshcrownes, being a very peaceful breed—more prone to flight than fight; if threatened, will raise their crowns while hissing in an attempt to scare off predators. Share this post Link to post
