Waffling on my tickets purchase for the last chunk.
Have bought:
Muse Faire Darkling Thorn
Dragonsai Bush Relic of the Epics Celestial Habitat
I have enough left for either an Omnitat (I have none) or the Lost Island. Until recently, I needed habitats most of all. My need for islands, however, is starting to catch up to my cash flow...
So I am under the impression that if you wait long enough, everything will come available again at some point. So if I have to choose between two HTF items, I lean towards getting the one that I'd have to wait longer for (or accrue more resources for that will take longer to get).

Thoughts?
Omnitat. You can always find more room somewhere if you try hard enough, and we'll probably get another full size island to buy before the end of the year.

Omnitat. Extra habitats that don't count towards the cap are ALWAYS on the top of my list. The lost island is handy but not that much. It is smaller than the regular islands.

I can't decide how to spend my last 8000 tickets. I'm counting on a BeB event, but that might not be a safe assumption.
I love the fun park idea that a number of people have done with the rides, but I opted instead to buy all the dragons except Mono5, the Lost Island, two additional Omnitats, the Sun & Rainbow themes (plus the hot air balloon for my Oz theme), and the two Winter decorations. So I missed out on all the Garden Gnomes™, the ferris wheel, bouncy mushroom, earthen altar thing, and the Treasure theme.
One thing this event kind of crystallized for me was that I tend to prioritize dragons first, then decorations. Turns out that I really hate having a non sparkling Dragonarium more than I thought. But other people would rather breed for the dragons and take the chance that it may be a while before you get one of something. It just depends on how you prefer to play.
This is interesting, because going into the event, my philosophy was that every dragon had to be bred. I have argued & argued with myself (doesn't help that I'm a Gemini!), trying to convince myself that I should use my tickets to get some of the dragons now, but I just can't do it. I seem to want decorations & am quite happy using tickets for those, but a sparkling dragonarium may not happen for a good long while, if ever, & I seem to be ok with that. Different styles of play, indeed.

FWIW, the most dragons I've been missing at one time (since I first had "Every Last One") was at the start of the Galaxy release and the start of this event. I'm just not used to not having them all. LOL I'd likely do things a bit differently if I had this event to do over. I probably should have put off getting Midday and tried to breed it, for example--I snapped it up with tickets before checking here to even see if it *was* breedable.
But dragons and eggs are my priority, and it's getting harder and harder for me to get that display egg out of the way with all these new dragons and long fails clogging the caves and nursery. So no regrets on spending tickets for them and missing out on the remaining decorations... I'm still trying to get my seconds and eggs of several of those dragons.

My ending tickets got messed up. The helper wizards didn't see anything unusual but I ended up with 1981 tickets, far less than I think I should have had. I spent my last bunch of tickets on a fairer dragon which should have used about 1000 of my BF tickets stored on my friends page. That should hVe left apx 2500 from BF and all my tickets from friends.
Not happy!! I do have another help request in but since this is the last day for the prize tent any answers will not come quickly enough.
I think my unused wish needs to be taken today also, but I'm not sure about that. Does anyone know?
On the next in-game I plan to take screen shots so I don't get feel gypted again.
Very fun game but sad to feel cheated. I know I had enough for at least an omnitat. Waaaa,

joliesdragons I did that same thing with Midday early in the event. I wish now I hadn't but it is what it is. Still pleased about the event overall and glad to have found this forum through the event.

I think I'm incubating a Monolith 5! 40 hours, right? Just in the nick of time!
I have 8257 tickets -- less 5525 for Goody's Treatery = 2732 left.
So now I need to decide if I want a theme for 1840 tickets (and if so, which one -- Rainbow or Sun?) or a decoration from the Faire. Then I'll have 892 tickets left so I'll probably get 2 more figurines (I still wish I hadn't redeemed tickets for the 1st 2 I got) with that.

I recommend the rainbow one. The sun is nice but the rainbow one is better imo.
Is there anything "special" about any of the decorations such as cool animation, etc? I need to cash in my tickets and I was planning on pretty much ignoring the decor but wanted to make sure there wasn't anything that I just gotta have.
The mushroom, wheel, and frozen fountain are all animated and IMO, the mushroom looks like lots of fun
Yes, the mushroom.....we had all better hope that the Mario Brothers never decide to visit our parks because that would be the first thing to go. Also, if that mushroom has psychedelic properties, well, Mario and Luigi might very well see our dragons as Bowser/King Koopa and his offspring. In their delusional state, the Mario Brothers might also see the floating islands as Bowser's flying pirate ship. Long story short, that is a issue that I do not believe any of us would want to have occur in our park. So, if you have the Bouncy Mushroom you had better put it under guard...or just ban the Mario Brothers from entering your park.

I worry about that little guy; his brains must be scrambled by now after months of bouncing

Months!? Has anyone seen him get off the mushroom recently for food, drink, or for the call of nature? Did anyone test the bounciness of the bouncy mushroom? What if he couldn't stop bouncing!? What if he couldn't get off the bouncy mushroom? If he has been stuck up there for months he is most certainly de....fine! Yes fine. Magical dragon parks and all. *shifty eyes* In a whisper echo9, you get the lawyer on the phone and I will get in touch with the "cleaners" for mushroom boy. Don't give me that look! How else do we "clean up" after visitors get too close to the dragons....especially when we are short on dragon treats.

Well I just spent my last 27,156 tickets. Bought *all* of the new decorations except for the new vernal glass. I couldn't afford everything and I already have the smaller one, so it had to go. The figurines are so cute. I got all the new themes and a Faire dragon. I had already bought 2 extra omnitats, the Lost Island and the Dragonsai Bush during the event.
I didn't get a Loot or a Darkling. Hoping that Darkling will come back for BeB, and Loot I'll get at some point from the CBC.
Not a bad haul at all. Thanks BFS, best event so far.
I have 5642 tickets left. I will probably spend them on decorations. What are your guys favorite ones or the ones that you would be most likely to buy?
I just realized the Faire Dragon is not available as a wish. That throws a little wrench into my ticket spending plan.
Yeah! None of the event dragons are: Loot, Snf 5, Mono 5 Faire, and etc etc..
