Enjoy your holiday!

Hey guys, what combos did you use for Quicksilver? And Forge? Think I'll take a break from Pearl, or at least in one cave.

Quicksilver- I think the look BS was going for is a blob of mercury.

I'm impressed to read that a bunch of you regularly stockpile your gems. Wow wish I could be so thrifty and resist using them to speed breedings. Right now I'm saving for a cave upgrade - which one should I go for?

Today we announce the winners of a Dragonvale "Beauty in the eye of a beer holder" contest.

3rd place - Mud Dragon

When floating on water this six-legged gluttonous beast looks like a giant piece of a hippo's dung. Some say this keeps the predators away, but in reality this so-called-dragon has no natural enemies... Or friends. Can be found in various dragon parks only because it completes a set.

2nd place - Iceberg Dragon

This jolly fella looks like he always smiles. That is a common miss-conception. It simply can't close it's mouth due to enormous teeth. This cruel joke of nature makes this dragon pretty pissed off at everybody it encounters. He loves sinking ships and killing wildlife with upward swipe of its head crested with a huge horn. Since this homocidal dragon is also a cleanliness freak it also eats everything it kills. This is the main reason why these dragons are morbidly obese.

1st place - Quicksilver Dragon

Encouraged by success of some astronomers in de-listing Pluto as a planet, a group of dragon naturalists tried to delist Quicksilver dragon from a list of known dragons. Unsuccessfully so far. This dragon was a love child of mud and iceberg dragons. That explains the extreme ugliness of this particular breed. Some wizards suggested that a metal dragon may have been involved as well but all metal dragons vigorously denied the accusations before eating the offending wizards. This dragon is a perfect example of why developers should not drink and take drugs at work. These dragons are paid bribes to remain in the water at all times to avoid driving away visitors. Let's face it - mud and iceberg do a great job of it already.


P.S.- Devs, if you are reading, WHAT THE HECK!???!!!

What a wonderful post you did, so happy that our posts have helped you in the past and really hope your post helps you get that pearl (although, couldn't even call it a mini rant really) hehe.....

We are a bit like a cyber family.....but there is plenty of room for anyone who wants to join in.....so consider this an arms wide open welcome to you from us all Really hope you will consider joining in, besides it's too cold peeking in from the outside

I miss the regular posters also.....where are you all
MaLiesa, Alyjens, Bluangel, Archer the funny guy....I know there's more gone AWOL....you are missed (out of sight does not mean out of mind) hint, hint
....hey Yashy, nice to hear from you, been a while...plus Dmdaily, Crusty, jtfields.

Just finished breeding a second quick silver, pretty egg, shame it turns out so ugly by the sounds of it....must be to win over that sea slug iceberg
Will only put one on display (once I reach lvl 31 cause have no more room for metal dragons anyway)

Back to trying for Forge again...will have to try a different combo cause I sure don't want a third quicksilver....did try Jazbo's combo twice, may try it again

Good luck to all with your Pearls....looking forward to hearing when more of you have yours....fingers and toes are crossed for you

Hi Girlpower! Awww...I was missed? Thanks!
I am so ambivalent about DV right now. So discouraged-haven't gotten over not being able to breed a second Emerald (my birth stone Dragon). I know I know! At least I got one. But what can I say, I'm a bit of a brat. I have also tried everything to breed a Pearl. And still no success. Then we have all these new dragons, that I can't even breed because I'm trying so hard to get Pearl!
Then there's the question of room. My hibernation cave is packed with 100 mostly high-level dragons. I've sold off most of the lower level ones to make room. I'm now to the point that I'm going to have to sell off some of my level 15's to make room for all the newer dragons. It costs a lot of money!!!! to get a dragon to level 15. And I was hoping to keep them so I could level my shrines up to 20 someday. (wow! That's a pipe dream isn't it?)

I can't imagine how some of the people who couldn't get an Emerald must feel! It kind of makes me very sad and a bit angry.

See? Have kind of been staying away because I'm so negative. I'm also in a bit of a time crunch lately, so it's hard to find time to even read the posts let alone post any myself.

Well, back to more futile breeding. Hope that you are all having more luck than I am (and more fun).

@ Eugekava- you are too clever and funny! Thank you – you've made me remember that most of the DragonVale fun comes from this forum. This is a great group of people!

@ eugekava. LMAO . I really do hope the devs at BS read this
