Today is the 1st of August and that means that very soon an issue of the dragon tale will be coming to you! However, I haven't yet received an article to put in the issue. Get those writing caps on, get the creative juices flowing and please send me an article as soon as possible! The date that I would LIKE to have them all in by is the 10th August! But no worries if you cannot finish in time for that deadline, keep having a go and I can put it in the issue after the coming one. What do you think about the Dragon Faire? And what about all the new prizes? Do you play dragonvale as a science (The science of DragonVale) or as an art? What is so obsessive about this game?

I wanted to take a moment to show appreciation to Backflip for this event. It has been a relaxed event, go at your own pace with no stress about getting max treats (my personal downfall) and thereby missing out on the top prize by falling behind. The snow effect was something I expected to have to earn or buy with gems at some point. The co-op breeding, while not a part of the Faire, adds to the calm since there are no real deadlines for most dragons. I appreciate that they have listened to their players and have adjusted the game to please as many as possible. Finally I would like to point out that I think BFS has given a real gift to the veteran players with this event. The big prizes such as the Tower, the treatery, the snow option (which will go away after this phase for players without a weather station?) and whatever other biggies are coming are already in those higher parks freeing up tickets for other prizes. Maybe it is their way of making up for giving the newest Galaxy dragons to the newer players.
July has ended and alas ruby has disappeared for another year, but now peridot has returned! The combo is CRYSTAL + CACTUS It's assossiated decoration, the obelise obelisk, has returned too. Remember this is probably your last attempt to get a periwin before the BEB event! Koala.

For the very first time since twins were added to the game, I have had an empty nursery for more than thirty seconds! That is, I am out of twins to hatch. Which is a good thing! I hope to fill that nursery with many Periwin Dragons soon

I second this wholeheartedly! I love this event so much. No grind, no stress, the reset time switching from 11pm my time zone to 10 am so I really enjoy not having to stay up late, and we get to chose any prize order we want, or to even omit certain prizes if we don't need/want them! The nostalgia of having a section for each past event (maybe not the light/dark rift ones but maybe) is really nice. I'm so glad they evolved the event to something the players actually want based on our opinions.
Hi all. Just wondering if anyone earnt the gem habitat and then has purchased one. If so, did anyone else notice that the stones in each are different? Cant post pics

Yes. It was commented on when it was first released. All the prize habitats with a "normal" equivalent are subtly different

How to Post Pictures On The Forum This will be using imgur. Make an account and log in. Find and press this upload button:
in the top right hand side.
Next you should be presented with this screen:
Be mindful, I am on my iOS iPad, so a computer or android version will probably look slightly different. Now choose the photos you want, in my case, simply by clicking on them. I have a choice from my gallery, but on the computer this will be your computer documents.
Click ok, and the pictures should be presented in a list, ready to upload, as so:
Click "start upload". The upload will take about 5 seconds per picture on a fast iPad or computer. Once it is complete return to "your gallery" of pictures by pressing the back button in the top left corner of the screen.
If you refresh, the uploaded pictures will appear in your gallery. Choose the one you want to upload and you will be presented with something like this, although a different picture, obviously:
Here's the problem; you don't want the link. You want the "Bb code" because that is what can be integrated into forums. You want this because then anyone in the forum can see. Your picture without having to change browser at all, or even follow a link. For you techno geeks out there, it works similar to how "smileys" work, by implementing coded formats for a different visual representation. To get the Bb code, click on the arrow next to the word "link" (a direct link to the photo) and you should get a drop down menu. Select the option saying "bb code", like so:
Your code will start with img in square brackets, "[" and "]". And end in /img in the same brackets.
Copy this code and then paste it into the forum and ta-da there is your photo.
This may seem complicated, but it's great because I can screenshot something, get on imgur and upload it within a few clicks.
Proof that this works can be found in the pictures I provided in this guide as visual aid.
Hope this works for you

Hi Everyone, I have a question about the prizes at the faire. I currently have 5295 tickets. I got the Midday and Snowflake #5. Do I want any of the other prizes? Which ones and why? Should I get the crystal castle? What does that do for me? What about the Twilight tower? What does that do? How are you guys spending your tickets? Are you saving them until the end for a shopping spree? Or spending them as you get them?
One final question about Midday, Dawn and Dusk. Do I have to put them in at Midday, Dawn and Dusk and get the right time? Or take them out then. I am confused. Thanks!

If you don't already have the habitats, get those since they're bonus habitats and don't count against the habitat max.
The Twilight Tower and Goody's Treatery are buildings--which means they have a feature built in.
- The Twilight Tower allows you to change the theme of your park, the background and music, which are associated with day or night time. Some dragons like the Moon dragon can only be bred at a certain time. So with the tower you can change the time in your park if you are trying to breed for a certain dragon like Moon.
If you have difficultly seeing during the darker settings (ie the firefly theme that was the first setting for the faire), the tower would also be a good investment since then you can change the theme to something brighter.
- Goody's Treatery allows you to gift treats to friends. So you could start trading treats (like gems) if you wish. During events giving and getting treats are accompanied with additional event currency. For this event one gifted gem gives 5 tickets and one gifted treat gives an additional 5 tickets.
Everything else in the prize tents are just decorations (the figurines, crystal castle, fountain etc.).
As for the time requirements for those dragons I'm not sure, the wiki might have the answer though. You'll want to start breeding them during the correct time though. So anytime after 7 PM for a Moon dragon.
Hi all knowledgeable dragon park caregivers I have a friend whose park, when I visit, has a green outline to her level bar, with an hour glass, a x2 and a countdown clock, she's L29. Is this a count down to L 30? And if so why? Or something else?? Thanks, yours sincerely, baffled

An XP boost! Unusual to see it used, it boosts the amount of XP earned.

Yes! I am pretty sure that I have a Snowflake five in my nursery right now, bred from a three and a one, I believe. That just saved me from buying it with my tickets! I have also succeded in breeding a second Midday from my own plus Kiyoji21's. That means that I can finally start breeding for those two new Galaxy Dragons, yay. Until the next phase of the event is released, that is!
