INGENIOUS blend of CREATIVITY & CLEVERNESS! Great game mods! ALL games have been brilliant so far! Three Cheers for your extra hard work and labor towards the fun of the forum!
Second this --- having a blast all week long ... I don't want it to end ;D
I also say congrats to all involved. Sadly, suffering from after effects of nasty gastric bug. So good hunting guys. I'll cheer from the infirmary this time.
I don t understand the point system, total of points by island is 1+2+3+4+5 makes 15 no ? Three islands total thus makes 45. Hiw do you come to 135 even with a bonus for all 5 dragons identical to other ones. Please explain

For this, the Silver Island is 1 point for each dragon, plus 10 bonus for getting them all, which is 15. The Gold Island is 3 points per dragon, plus 30 bonus points, which is another 45. The Platinum Island is 5 points per dragon, plus 50 bonus, which is 75. 15+45+75=135
Dunno how people are getting perfect scores when 4 of the dragons look exactly the same as another dragon..
Me neither, and it is even 5 not 4.
Heh, can't really tell the difference between certain dragon's eyes in silhouette.. It really is a mystery for me, when its impossible to distinguish between the dragons, as they are just pure recolours. Unless people are getting incredibly lucky with their guesses....
I had a look at the spreadsheet, out of 100 participants, 6 have a max of points in the island contest. I am no mathematician but that is an incredible ratio.
Haven't done any updating yet this morning, but looking at just the people playing the island game it is pretty close to 25% that got them all right. Way higher percentage than the candle game.

If 5 of the dragons were just a random guess of a choice of 2, then there there would be 1 chance in 2 of guessing it, to the power of 5. Or 1 chance in 32 of picking it randomly.
As it turns out we have had exactly 32 entries at this point, and 8 people have got them all right. That tells me they are not just randomly guessing. As Viviane has pointed out an 800% higher than expected rate of perfect scores means it can't just be a lucky chance. Either there are subtle differences, or body language clues that people are picking up on, consciously or unconsciously.
I'm actually quite pleased with that result given that I'm half blinded and only have one functioning thumb after this weeks' shenanigans! My iPhone wouldn't show the pics so I had to borrow a friends' laptop to look at the Islands of Shadow. That's how dedicated I Am! Even tho I hadn't a hope of even getting in the top half of the table due to my pitiful performance in every other round. Please can I be awarded 449 points for effort? . No? Oh all right then.
Fabulous job all of you. And fabulous forum. Thank you. Happy 1st Birthday......and many more....
I tend to distribute my spare gems to those who look like they need them so please don't feel you have to return if you get one from me!
My GN won't let me in regularly so please don't send me gizmonauts crystals. I can't use or return them!
You'll have to enlighten us after all the points are counted then, so we can all know how to tell a ... I dunno... Metal from a Malachite.
I'm surprised you don't already know this Myke. You look for the achi. All Malachites start life as Metals, but then the achi bit shows up and they're never the same again.
