Legendary Trio

New dragons have been released in the cave, six days ago.

The thread: http://forums.dragcave.net/index.php?showtopic=73711&st=0

Okay, it looks like these babies are rare. I have seen four different reports of trying to breed with a rare result in a refusal. They are: IcexGold = Refusal, MagmaxGold = Refusal, ThunderxSilver Refusal, IcexChristmas 08 = Refusal.

That's all I have to report so far.

I'm sure it's hard to maintain the guide with all the dragons (and new ones coming out about once a month now), so here's what I've noticed:

Pumpkin/Harvest dragons can't breed, and the Vampires have the bite function now. The Bright Pinks no longer breed other BP's, just reg pinks now. As for Zombies, they were again available this year, and one just had to kill a dragon and attempt to revive it. No hatchling sickness required.

For Stripes, I know that some of that information is wrong, but I don't have a great link to trusted information at the moment. Hopefully someone else can submit something. However, I know that Pinks (Bright or not) do not yield Red Stripes.

Also, every time you cite a specific time, you give the time zone as EST. This is Eastern Standard Time, and it's not always true. When the East Coast of the USA is on DST, the time zone is then EDT, and this does affect things if people are using an online calculator to figure out the difference in time zones—an hour may be lost in translation as not everyone observes DST (and not at the same time, so they wouldn't know when to use which one). EST is UTC-5 while EDT is UTC-4. Perhaps the best way to shorten it is ET or NAEST. Official time is: http://time.gov/timezone.cgi?Eastern/d/-5/java

I do not condone spoilers… but as you asked, no the Halloween 2009 Harvest/Pumpkin dragons are not breedable.

It's under the Breeding Forum. Maybe I should rename it. Thanks for the update!

Sounds like they were using the Collapse tag.

[[collapsible show="Spoilers" hide="Hide" folded="yes"]]
<Spoilers>
[[/collapsible]]

Hope that helps?

I noticed in at least one post there is a spoiler link which will unhide text that might be considered a "spoiler" when clicked. However, I cannot for the life of me figure out how to code it (no pre-set tags for this I can see).

How does one do this so I can edit a post of mine that contains what almost certainly is a "spoiler"?

Vampire Dragon update needed: Bite action (Spoiler included.)

Ruffian75 1257719666|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
in discussion Dragon Cave / Spoilers » Vampire Dragon update needed: Bite action.

The Vampire dragons now have the "Bite" action and have since Halloween.

Spoilers behind this link!

This action follows this pattern from what I have been able to discern:

**50% of Bite actions are successful and the breeder retains the egg;

25% of attempts fail (no egg produced);

And here's the interesting variation:

25% of all Bite "breedings" DO result in an egg BUT the egg is auto-abandoned to the AP.**

The notice in this case reads something like "The action was successful and an egg produced but the other dragons were so repulsed by the egg it was tossed away from you."

I'll try to get the exact text and copy it here.

That's how it's set up to make sure others have a chance at Vampires without having to beg or ask another user for one.

The normal "Breed" action continues to be unavailable.

Notes from my experience:

Since I joined after the original release of the Vampire in 2008, ALL my Vampires so far have been auto-abandoned and from eggs; my first attempt at "Bite" DID get the auto-abandon applied to it. I was able to trace this egg simply because I bit one of my own bred eggs and not one I obtained elsewhere.

It also appears that the age of the egg bitten MIGHT affect whether "Bite" is successful or not, but I have not confirmed this.

Another thing: The Vampire that transforms the egg does not appear anywhere in the pedigree, making it almost impossible to trace "who done it" (unless the egg was one one bred AND the Vampire that bit the egg was also one's own).

That little feature also renders the concern about "inbred eggs" irrelevant since the pedigree belongs to the now-dead baby and NOT to the Vampire produced. I am not sure whether the Pedigree of the deceased will pass on through the resulting Vampire to eggs they Bite and transform; no reports on that one yet.

It's also possible to produce cave breds through Bite by using a CB egg.

Hello!

Sorry, I don't understand where is the spoilers forum. None is named like that.

Show spoiler about Pumpkin Dragons

Pumpkin Dragons are not capable of breeding. How sad!

Happy Halloween!

I just wanted to wish everyone a belated Happy Halloween and early Happy Thanksgiving! I've added color codes and info for the new Pumpkin Dragon, so anyone who was lucky enough to snag one of those little beauties can make use of the info do to so. :)

If anyone can tell me whether or not these new Dragons are breedable in the spoilers forum, and with what I'd be much obliged.

Happy Breeding!

Re: Line breaks in tables?

Alia Guyat 1255788449|%e %b %Y, %H:%M %Z|agohover
in discussion General / Help » Line breaks in tables?

As to your tab listing, you are missing [[/tabview]] at the end of it.

Also, to make a line break in a table cell you have to do:
First Line
Second Line

You must put a physical carriage return in the line, else it just puts the underscore, as you see.

As to the issues of saving, my recommendation is to close all your windows and open a blank tab when you clear out your cache. Unfortunately I don't have much experience beyond that, so if it persists, I suggest taking it to the main wiki help at:

Good luck!

in discussion General / Help » Line breaks in tables?

Ugh. I am totally banging my head against the wall. Help? What am I doing wrong?

I started trying to build a new table for my breeder page here: lady2beetle. It's at the bottom.

1. I tried putting a space before the _ but not after. As you can see, it doesn't seem to do any good. :'(

2. Why won't my tabs work? I used the exact same code that is used for my first table, but it's like it isn't reading the code at all.

3. I'm also having trouble posting. When I first pull up the site, I can usually save once, but after that, I get:

//Wikidot.com security error:

Your authentication token in the request is not valid. Please enable cookies in your browser and try to repeat the action.

If you see this message on the page not associated with the wikidot.com wiki hosting it probably means an identity theft attempt or improper use of wikidot.com server.//

I have tried to clean out my cache and place the website on my "always allow" list and enable the cookies, but nothing works.

The only thing I can think of with the code is that because I know I am having saving issues, I type everything out in word, then try to copy and paste it in at once. Is there something in Word that keeps what you copy/past from getting read as code?

Seems pretty official then. If anyone else has data, please don't hesitate to contribute!

I wasn't sure if you saw this confirmation that a guardian and a white stripe will produce a blue stripe. I am going to try some of the other stripes as well.

I was told by a DC mentor that an egg will not hatch before 3 days 23 hours. The same hold true for a hatchling going to maturity.

I acquired a sun egg which came into 3 days 23 hours just before midnight(EST) 10/05 - after midnight I fogged the egg to prevent it from hatching. After 12:00 pm(noon)EST 10/6 passed I unfogged the egg. As of 8:00 PM EST I have a sunset dragon. This strongly supports the timing schedule I posted previously.
