I think I might have found a solution to our collective woes regarding the 7k max of banked eggs. I saw someone on Facebook (and I've done this in the past as well) say they've emailed backflip telling them the social menu of their game keeps crashes and doesn't allow them to play the game. Backflip has then added all the total gifts (eggs, gems, and treats) to the totals and the social menu is effectively cleared. In that case, our 1000/day max would still allow us to bank 7k more eggs before the end of the event and we could in theory exceed the overall 50k limit or whatever was calculated. Couldn't hurt, right?

So basically you want to abuse the generosity of Backflip's support people by outright lying to them? Wooow.
I love it. Might end up doing this.
Might not even be a lie because my social menu did actually reach that breaking point towards the end of the last 2 events.

I feel that is a bit harsh. For me, it isn't a lie, I have mentioned several times on this forum alone (see the ATTN backflip thread) that my social menu crashes repeatedly. I play on an iPhone and have over 450 friends from Game Center alone, couple that with twins and event tokens, and now the pop up, and I have to accept each gift individually, close the pop up, close the social menu, then repeat. And since they made the rules, there will always be people trying to find loopholes or, as I've seen members in this forum call them, exploits. Would you rather we be forced to pay to get all the rewards for each event? I know you aren't entirely appalled/opposed to the idea yourself and really, by adding that extra rule, they might be adding extra work for themselves as well. It's just a suggestion, take it or leave it.
Those who have a hard time maxing out their daily 1000 magic eggs plus the daily bonus of 25/50 should make new friend requests. I think you will need at least 30 friends.
I don't have a problem maxing out daily. Here is typically how I get my 1050 eggs on the average;
4 x100 =400 - the burcadian stadium ( 5th one for 100 eggs is banked) 50=1 golden egg in the park 50 from colosseum 9x20=180 name that egg game ( last round is played to reach the max for the day and banked 18 or 19 eggs ) 2x 20= 40 from kairos quest 4x20= 80 from hatching/ selling eggs or displaying pedestals 35x5 =175 from party hats 24 from collecting treats and coins.
So banking is limited to 7000 eggs this time. This stinks. I guess 7000 is better than nothing, but I managed to do about 17k last event and I was hoping that diligent banking could carry me through this again.
At least they're telling us in advance instead of it being a nasty surprise when the event ends.
Nooooo! Why!? Why do you treat us so, BFS? *I am so bummed out right now*
It must be what we get for publishing all sorts of tutorials.
So... my bank is in trouble. We're 30% into the event and I've already stashed 4500+. Might as well dip in
BUT IT'S NO FUN!!! Why can't banking become part of events? Do we have to find new ways of outwitting BFS all the time?
Sad thing is, until now I didn't even clue in to banking. I'm maxed today already, but used to just collect gifts all the time... Should have joined a forum long ago haha

Yeah, I'm kinda busting your chops here. I wouldn't be above doing this, but it's a bit of a gray area.
In my opinion, exploits are fair game because they're part of the game and Backflip can fix them. They have a fighting chance there. If you use the support people, that's outside of the game, and they basically have to take it lying down in the name of customer service.
Of course, if you're genuinely having crash issues, then it's totally fine. Might motivate them to finally fix the social menu at least.

*shrug* There's just so much going on in my life these days that DV hardships are really minor. I'd love for it to be easier... but then I'd get bored with it altogether. I have over-banked in previous events, so a part of me is glad to see that BFS will 'help' me to refrain That's not to say that I don't feel for others that are struggling - that's no fun and I would support changes that made game play more enjoyable for my friends.
I do feel inclined to reply to the idea of exploits though. If I benefit accidently that's one thing, but to actively use an exploit knowingly is something I just wont do. I don't judge, there are lots of perspectives to be sure. But a word of warning: Often the terms of service will state penalties for knowingly exploiting gameplay (I didn't read the DV terms of service, but I'd expect this to be covered). And, to boot, you are putting at a disadvantage those that don't know about it at all. Something to keep in mind.

Is anyone else having lag issues during this event? My main android device, which is less than a year old, has lag spikes when I bank MEs after hitting the daily limit, and from time to time during the day as well. The park on my older device is horrible - the lag spikes are so bad it will get hung up for 3-5 minutes, which makes it nearly unplayable at times.

Yes. It happens to me whenever an event is on, which unfortunately is always and forever.

Can Chrysalis x Lacewing in the CBC result in a Chrysalis? I got a 33:20 timer and am hoping its Duskwing, but am fine with a second Chrysalis too.
To answer my own question, I *think* Chrysalis x Marbletail in the CBC has just resulted in a a 50:40 timer, which is Marbletail. I was going for Swallowtail.
I'm going to speed up the breed tomorrow when my eggs reset to check the combo, but I'm 95% sure this is correct, since I wasn't going to bother breeding for Marbletail due to getting the dragon at the end of the event. Which means that ChrysalisxMarbletail will result in either parent plus Swallowtail.
GCID: scarreddragon // Level 85 // CBC currently Carnival trying for a twin... laissez les bon temps roulez!
Not limited and can be bred. I'm assuming the combo is just any 2 Monoliths again.
I'm happy to see this, actually. I really wasn't up for a weekend only dragon, and this one appears to also go towards unlocking the higher tiers. So its just another option, but nothing over which we need to scramble or panic. I don't know what the breeding odds are for this one, but they can't possibly be any worse than for Monolith 5.
Breed time is 24 hours.

Curious, is it possible that Chysalis and Duskwing is the master breeding pair? Each have only three non synchronous elements and all the rest are comprised of four. Has there been any testing on them to see if they can breed a Marbletail? (Marbletail is opposite the pair on the breeding wheel.) If this is true then one could breed all five from this one pair.
Is it possible to breed monolith 6 x any chystalis to get an chystalis? I bought the monolith 6 since monolith 5 was almost impossible to get. But I won't have enough egg to buy all chystalis (possibly can afford 3). So I'm not sure what combo I should try. I was previously using Ornament dragon.
Someone needs to figure out the most efficient breeding combo for Mono 6
If it is any two Monoliths again, it would be Monolith 1+2. Same as Mono 5.
