Okay, so the Island Themes have altered the way I'll be decorating my islands. Previously grouped by element colour, I'll now be grouping them by habitat floor (e.g. lightning will now be with earth instead of light). I'm also thinking I'll be using the habitats to hold all the dragons that have that element as it's first and placing those pedestals there as well. We'll see how well that works when I start to put that into practice.
Secondly, I'm going to get rid of all my level 15 dragons (well dragons level 11 to 19) as the orbs really bother me. If we have gotten an easy way to turn the orbs off, now would be a good time to let me know. ;-)
Finally, I need some ideas of naming my dragons. My last use was elements of the periodic table, but that's way short of the 200+ names I need. So I'm looking for suggestions of something that has an obvious chronological order with plenty of scope to cover at least 250 names. All ideas are welcomed. Thanks in advance.

All the greek gods, all the roman gods, past emperors, kings, etc.
I just ran a contest and the winner got to name 30 dragons one of each of their choices. They named them after fellow forumites. You could name them after your first 300+ friends here on the forum.......but let me warn you that most don't come to visit their namesake so it does cause me a little more maintenance to let them know that I care!
Looking around and enjoying life!
All Dragons are safely in their habitats or in the HC

Bring 'Em Back is over, but the Snowflake Dragon breeding rules seem to be confusing post Bring 'Em Back.
I know of someone who has been testing and have these results so far:
It seems like at least one of the desired Snowflake Dragons has to be one of the two breeding to have a chance at it.
For example, First Snowflake and First Snowflake seems to only be giving First Snowflake, and Second Snowflake and Second Snowflake seem to only be giving Second Snowflake.
However, Third Snowflake and Fourth Snowflake should have a chance at either Third Snowflake or Fourth Snowflake, but not First Snowflake or Second Snowflake in theory.
Our tester so far hasn't been able to get a single Snowflake Dragon in at least 20 tries so far where during the event and BEB breeding two different Snowflake Dragons would yield one of them at least every few tries.
We may need more testing to be done to reach any conclusions.
Update: Around 25 tries a Fourth Snowflake came out of breeding Third Snowflake and Fourth Snowflake so it seems like it is probably really rare to get one unless it is from two of the same parents.

Hi Fletch, I name mine by their DV name such as Aurora, Earth, Lightening, Lotus, etc. this is an easy way for me.
Update: Around 25 tries a Fourth Snowflake came out of breeding Third Snowflake and Fourth Snowflake so it seems like it is probably really rare to get one unless it is from two of the same parents.
1 in 25 tries is about 4%, on par with many other epics, and much better than some, the dreams and nightmares, for example. I am trying for a snowflake 3 with a #1 and #3, I will let you know how many tries if I am successful... (in my second park, after TWO aurora fails I got a time of 25 hours, 10 minutes before BeB ended, fingers crossed that it is the missing #3 and not a second #4...)

Seems pretty straightforward. They're just 4 completely different epics then.
I mean, if you breed Summer + Autumn, you can get more of both, but never a Spring Dragon. Looks like it's the same thing with Snowflakes.

Why chronological, if I may ask, before thinking of ideas?
Because I like to name them in the order they were released. Plant, fire, poison, flower, earth, tree, moss, lava, cold, mountain, etc. It's part of what makes me special. :-)
Hmmmmm...... "wintery surprises" do not sound like permanent golden hybrids to me. I think that frostbite is going to be another limited dragon, but I hope I am wrong.
Yeah, it sounds like the second winter seasonal dragon.
I don't think it is, since it's not the right time yet. Just check the release dates:
Sprout: May 6th. Leaf: August 5th. Berry: November 6th
I am not expecting the fourth seasonal until the beginning of february. And since Berry was released I've been wondering if the fourth would be a Seed dragon. Let's wait and see.

Really happy with my gorgeous avatar by ElektronX! GCID: Andr3i4 Any and all friends for Cooperative Breeding are welcome. Gladly accepting any twins also.

You could name them after your first 300+ friends here on the forum.
This has possibilities. I think the members list can be ordered by date of people joining. Or maybe order of posting ...

That seems a solid theory. So a golden hybrid perhaps.
Two that I can think of: you could use the chronology of their DOB or death (so Saint Peter precedes Saint John Paul II), or the year they were canonized.

I guess what I really meant was is there an official chronological list that's easy to reference.

I don't know off hand, but probably. If you are truly interested, I could poke around the internet for you. Let me know
Gah!!! Candelabra and Crystalline Snowflake are both NOT listed as limited when you sort it by limited in the storage tower! Candelabra was limited prior to the event... and Crystaline Snowflake is functionally the same as Whitbees Lantern, which is limited, so...
Think they will still dissappear from the market tomorrow? This lack of clarity is really messing with my storage tower efficiency...
I'm not sure if this was mentioned, but after the Halloween event ended as long as you had one Whitbee's Lantern you could buy more. Even though it wasn't in the market, when you selected the lantern the button to buy another was still there.
BFS probably didn't mean to leave it there, but I wish they would do this for all decorations. As long as you've bought one, you'd have the option to buy more anytime. It would kill many birds with one stone--people would spend more dc, limited storage tower slots would be freed up, and people can redecorate all year round!
So the Crystalline Snowflake still has the "buy another" button! While the one for Whitbee's Latern is gone...
So My First beb is over. I am playing since august, so im missing a lot Pof dragons. I was trying to get panlong, apocalypse, rifts, Dusk, dawn and ovalith. These are the dragons i got, that i didnt have: Firework, leap year, motley, solar eclipse, panlong, silver, Sun, paper, ghost, blue moon, lunar eclipse, Gold, mirage, spring, sulfur, bloom, Bronze olympus, cotton, aurora Quite a list. But still at least 6 dragons For next beb. And a lot of dragons to try for in the next year.

I guess what I really meant was is there an official chronological list that's easy to reference.
Lol I just name my dragons for what they are as it made it easier to find them before they came out with the dragon tracker and I'm not about to change after years of doing it that way.
on a side note I play on for iPads and everyone one of them has snowflake Dragons 1 through 3 but none of them got number 4. That's the only dragon I'm missing on all my parks and was hoping once BEB was done we would be able to breed for them without all the other long fails I was getting during the event.
hopefully they have a small winter BEB event soon.

What!!! I can't breed a Snowflake 3 or Snowflake 4 anymore??? I feel like the rug was just pulled out from underneath me!!!!! Ah!
Was there info about this posted somewhere? I have breeding Snowflake 1 and 2 nonstop and now it means I won't get any other Snowflakes from that anymore??
Not a bad BEB haul this year. Some breedings were just for the respective egg while others were to complete a set left unfinished from the dragon's first appearance.
However I was not able to obtain a single Snowflake 3 from my repetitive Snowflake 1 X Snowflake 2 breedings. Now sits two Snowflake habitats lacking the third member of their quartet . . .
Maybe we can get a mid-season Winter BEB again?
