    Sweet!! And a big grats!! I need a recipe for a Sunny, think I'll try that next.

    What else has been working for Sunnies? Anyone?

    Don't remember if I posted this yet, but my 12 hr Cold x Blue Fire turned out to be another Cold. :( Hmm guess Colds can be bred, I didn't know that.

    And grats, @Jornpod, that's really cool about your lucky Flower! :) I need one of those.

    Wanna bet we'll be gettin a Shamrock Dragon next month? Maybe they'll be a lucky sort. Maybe it'll have red hair and a little hat. No that would be a bit much, wouldn't it? Say, I wonder if BFS will be adding fashion accessories to the market for the discerning dragon? :D ....Nah, probably not....

    So I still need Frosty & Sun ... oh and that stupid Panlong! And Sandstorm! Aaak! (mini mini rant) Sigh. *deep breaths* Ok let's get back in there and breed something! Lol.

    Wtg!!!

    Congrats, Rattler! :D:D:D

    @Jornpod, I am so envious-I need a lucky dragon to get Frosty :( Congrats! :D

    @Foxtail- sometimes mini rants can spark success. Hope it works for you!

    I am going to rant. I have gotten stupid crystal dragons and nothing else since yesterday. I have two in the nest and two in the breeding caves.Sometimes I hate this game everything is so random.I hate the 24 hour waiting times.I hope everyone else has had better luck than me this weekend.

    Foxtail- I have been breeding lots of cold on accident lately! I bred a bluefire a while back but it didn't register on my goals so I'm randomly trying again with no luck! So frustrating! Good luck on you sun dragon. Remember the chase is half the fun :)

    Rattler-way to go on the sun dragon!! I love the dragon you did for your son, it's amazing the way you can use technology!

    My 48 hour ended up being my second sun. I'm ok with that but was really hoping for my rainbow. Oh well just keep trying :)

    Good luck to everyone still trying for something (aren't we all?)

    The Valentine dragon must be the best looking in the whole game. Its as if new artists/animators were hired to make this one. The only problem is it is too small. I keep mine in the Plant habitat. They would be barely visible in the other two (fire/lightning).
    I wonder what the Easter bunny dragon will look like... :)

    One of the things that worries me a bit is the possibility of this game expanding further (more levels, islands, dragons, etc). Right now if you have most islands and all the habitats are full, the game runs a bit slow. In fact when I scroll around on my 4g ipod touch the game freezes every few seconds. Obviously it can't handle that many dragons moving and flapping their wings. Devs already had to restrict zoom and remove visitors when zoomed out to avoid massive slowdowns. How do you think they can manage adding new content without making the game unplayable?

    If I was developing this game, and I wanted to add more islands and dragons, I'd separate island groupings into two separately-loaded screens--the regular ones, and then some higher-up ones floating in a sea of clouds, perhaps. That way, people would not be keeping all their dragons and islands onscreen at the same time. I think that would probably help.

    You make some great points about why BFS devs had to change some game features - some stuff I didn't realize. Here I was complaining about a few changes, but obviously they had to be done to make the game run a little faster. I wondered why we don't see wizards walking around except in zoom. Hmm. There's probably a limit to expansion? Is that maybe why some dragons are time limited?

    I can't seem to get the game to load, and my searches are coming up empty. I have an iPhone 4. Anyone have any suggestions?

    sweet victory comes your way

    Shamrock would be a nice idea! And fashion accessoiries? Maybe not a hat, but surely some dragons are meant to be flewn by riders and would have a saddle of some sort???

    @Jornpod & @Rattler Congratulations and great job! Proves the theory that in this game, everyone has different strokes of luck and best working combinations. Each of us is individual and the game treats us as such. That is what I probably most like about this game: it's unpredictability, it's total lack of standarisation and 'equal odds for all'. Life simply isn't that way and some of us have to work harder than most alas. But then again: so much sweeter the victory.... Good luck to you all! Never give up and never cease to please us all with your joy, ideas, ranting and confessing....:)

    Easter dragon? Humoungous ears I hope.....:p

    I think one of the solutions for a slow Ipod/Iphone would be the ability to turn visitor movements off completely and perhaps vary the dragon movement....?

    Well, I thought I wanted to do something "wild'n'crazy", so I bred a lvl 15 Frostfire with a lvl 15 Love on EBI and got a 48 h breeding time.

    Who would have thought?
    I'm puzzled.
    As usual.
    This game is giving me a number of unwanted grey hairs.

    ;-)

    I also stood strong and got the gem tree instead of frosty!
    Here's hoping we get lucky soon.
