Does anyone know what to breed with Midday dragon in the co-op to get another Midday? Please and thank you.
It's been done so it is possible but testing indicates it's pretty unlikely. Your best bet is another midday so the cloning rules kick in, increasing your chances but any epic will do.
The way BFS code the game, they use place holders for variable messages. Then they just swap the real value for the placeholder. It looks like something went wrong and you are seeing the place holder for the time left rather than the value. This has happened before. We call them "glitches". They are no big deal unless they stop you playing the game.

Are odds better on the EBI/BC?
Testing takes time so we are not certain yet, but it looks like it. I can count on getting dragonX by cloning in three or four attempts in the ebi, but I have done twenty or thirty cloning attempts in the CBC before getting a clone. But to use the EBI, you need two midday dragons in your own park.
It is much harder to test non cloning as the odds are much lower. Typically around 1%. That means thousands of test breeds are necessary to get a meaningful result.

Oh you need 2 for the EBI? :/
Did they change the breeding rules again? Or does this new rule only apply to Midday and probably the other dragons earned during this event?

No I meant you need two for cloning in the EBI. According to the limited epic breeding rules you should be able to breed anther using midday and some other epic. But your chances are not good. You are probably better off trying cloning in the CBC.
We typically see odds lower than the original breeding chance but not zero for out of. Season epic breeding. Cloning is a much better bet, but it looks like cloning in the CBC is a lot harder than cloning in the EBI.

Oh gotcha! Thanks so much for testing and clearing that up

With Procyon and Andromedan it was really easy. I managed to clone them with 1 or 2 tries. I was not sure what to do, but decided to use my tickets for a Midday. Now I'm trying to clone on the CBC. I hope the odds are not too low.
Really happy with my gorgeous avatar by ElektronX! GCID: Andr3i4 Any and all friends for Cooperative Breeding are welcome. Gladly accepting any twins also.

Dont thank me. I just play the game. But I pay close attention when others report on their testing. And I remember. I also pay attention to what happens in my park.

I will say this, I have been speed breeding with mine. In breed island and co-op. Sadly I have not been lucky. I have on in co-op cave and second hatching. I turned in tickets to get both.
Note I tried with Midday, Sun, Dawn, Sol, and Solar Ecl.
But it willing to try with any other suggestions.

You took the time to answer my questions and clarify, which I'm grateful for.
Is there a hidden thread somewhere that has test results? I've seen fletch or bloodstone mention them briefly on the main thread, but if there's another one I should be looking in I'll head right on over (:
No, I was showing as 1678 collected. Then tapped the Challenge Tent, and was back to 1650 and none banked.
Something similar happened to me : I tapped the event tent after hitting max and was told I got 200, but my total stayed at 1650 and nothing was banked. BUT this morning, my bank now shows the extra 200, so it may still yet turn up
I am pleased to report that this has happened, I am now showing 427 banked. Plus the ones from fiends. Ahem, FRIENDS
heyo. what is the point of banking tickets? does it just lessen the amount needed on another day or can we cash it in for extra tickets. another question, does the event really end on 7/22 because that's when the cold prizes open up.
i have a midday dragon for coop breeding up in about 8 hours. shoot me an add, GCID: happiful

Thanks - especially for the "glitch"-word!
Does anyone remember the 10-gem glitch? That was a wellknown secret among young players back in 2013(?) - if my memory is up to date this chilly summermorning. ☺️

i really like this event, nice and relaxing
The event ends in September, and there is a week after we stop collecting tickets that we can turn them in for prizes, and any left over get turned into treats.
So if you bank 200 a day, we should have plenty left over at the end to convert to treats (assuming we can collect them then)
Midday update... After many attempts at coop breeding resulted in fails (and absolutely no twins) I put my 2 Middays (bought with tickets) into the EBC last night, that first try resulted in a Midday, so I now have my Midday egg incubating

Programmers use %n in SQL expressions as a substitution syntax for database values. It is also used in User Interface code in the same way. In this example, %1 is supposed to be the time until the event resets.
Congrats! You have seen a programming error!
Precisely. Oldsmol, you have found an interesting error. An insight into the workings of DV. They use %1 as the number of hours left in the event as stated above, and will use %n for other values, like breeding times, incubation times, building times, colosseu the imes, kairos cool down times etc.

The current air and fire prizes will stay on until September 28th, (and others will be released over time) but earning tickets stops on the 22nd Spetemeber. Therefore we might be able to turn in banked tickets in these last 6 days. Assuming none are double days and that there are 6 days, 3000 tickets should suffice. Also if you have a bad wifi connection, you can turn in tickets to help you out!

I don't really have that problem because I just have my 7 regular customers that I swap gems and treats with every day.
You can't clear gifts with uncollected tickets, so you'd have to leave the gem uncollected until you do return it, or manually keep track, like with pen and paper.
Have apple already brought out the iPen?
Do you get just one page worth of ink before you have to refill?
POTM! Gave me a huge grin! Thanks Greg
