10. Most of the dragons in Dragonvale have 2 or 4 legs. Can you name a dragon that has:
a) Hooded is a good one, and I'll accept all the swimmers, because I should have been clearer, that I mean they had no appendages. I was thinking of Air and Sandstorm b) Chitlin will work, but Mud comes to my mind.
I think these are loads of fun, Fletch_smf, so keep them coming. I'm not in it for the GT - I actually do them to see if I have any clue about some of the answers. Must say I owe my son (BagMan) GT for telling me about his "super-expensive but useless volcano decoration".
I love your Chitin typo on 10b. I don't even want to think about what an actual Chitlin dragon might look like... Although I looked back at that dragon and realized that it doesn't actually have six feet, but 4 feet and two whatever those other things are (hand-less arms?). And I never realized Mud had six feet!
This is just to confirm that I spent the week with my visiting daughter and grandson, and there will be no Trivia this weekend. I am well underway on next weeks trivia, which will be titled "Dragonvale on Fire" in case you want to start doing some research ...
I'll post the answers under a Spoiler Tag below. If you come across this post and haven’t done this Trivia yet, the questions can be found at dragonvale-tips.proboards.com/post/201260/ Have a go, and then check out how you went.
{ANSWERS for Dragonvale by the Numbers}1. Dragonvale celebrated its 9th Anniversary this past September. On what day of the month was Dragonvale launched?
The 14th of September.
2. How many dragons were available to buy or breed when the game was originally released?
There were 26 dragons available when the game first launched. Plant, Fire, Poison, Flower, Earth, Tree, Moss, Lava, Cold, Mountain, Lightning, Firefly, Crystal, Quake, Storm, Water, Seaweed, Swamp, Mud, Ice, Air, Willow, Blazing, Snow, Sonic and the only epic, Rainbow. There was no Metal element, and Plant was also an opposite dragon for Cold in the beginning.
3. How many islands were available when the game was released?
There were only 3 islands. Total. Not even the extra breeding island.
4. Put the following 4 dragons in order, from cheapest to most expensive, according to how many gems they cost to buy in the market?
Interesting that few points were earned here. Because getting one wrong had a knock on effect for the others. I don't think I'll ask a question in this way again.
5. The Century dragon was released as the 100th dragon, on February of 2013. What was the 101st dragon, that was released the very next day?
The Blizzard dragon was released the day after the Century dragon.
Bagmom wins the answers this week, with "101 is the Dalmatian dragon, obviously".
6. The ratio of the circumference of a circle to its diameter, is represented by Pi (3.141592). And the constant e, Euler's Number (2.718281) turns up all the time in maths and physics. Where are those 2 numbers referenced in Dragonvale?
a) 3,141,592 DC is the cost of the Hibernation Cave b) 2,718,281 DC is the cost of the Storage Tower
7. A lot of import is placed on the higher earning dragons. But which dragon is the lowest earning dragon for DC (not gems or Etherium)? What is the earn rate of this dragon at Level 10, with no boosts?
a) The Metal dragon is the lowest earner. Crazy huh! b) It earns just 19 DC per minute at level 10. The Earth dragon earns 24 DC per minute.
Lisgie, does a Rifty gem dragon earn 0 DC in the Rift? 2 points for you.
8. Most breed times are shared by a lot of dragons. At the time of writing there are 45 dragons that have a 12 hour breed time. But there are a few breed times that are unique to 1 dragon. Which dragon is the only dragon that has a breed time of:
a) Frons b) Snootroot c) Leaf d) Nightshade
9. There are 3 decorations that tie for being the most expensive in the game. Name 1 of them, and how much does it cost?
a) Volcano, Rainbow Fountain or Window of Reverie (Dream decoration) b) 10,000,000 DCI think you mistyped here, Lisgie, so I'm going to give you the point.
10. Most of the dragons in Dragonvale have 2 or 4 legs. Can you name a dragon that has:
a) Hooded is a good one, and I'll accept all the swimmers, because I should have been clearer, that I mean they had no appendages. I was thinking of Air and Sandstorm b) Chitlin will work, but Mud comes to my mind.
So, it seems that this weeks trivia might have been a step backwards. I mean I thought it might be, because it was a whole bunch of numbers and stats, but I had started working on it since I had the idea of doing Trivia. Because I'm a stats and numbers kind of guy. So sorry about that.
Anyway, Bagmom got 4 out of 20. Lisgie got 6 out of 20, and Sofie takes it down for the week with 7. Gems and Treats coming to all the entrants this week for being such good sports.
Thanks so much for playing. As I mentioned above family is visiting, so it might be a weekend off. We'll see how I go.
I can't believe I actually got 7 right. That one was so difficult.
They are fun though.
Am looking forward to the next one.
It's a great distraction from semi-lockdown.
Fletch_smf Would it be okay if I send in two answer forms. After the guess round I might like to look around in game or on this board to see if I can find all the right answers. These questions are such a fun way to learn/explore more.
Also: I appreciate the GT, but if I'm ever in a winning position again, I don't mind if you pass me over for a participant with eg a lower level park (or divide them or something).
This is just to confirm that I spent the week with my visiting daughter and grandson, and there will be no Trivia this weekend. I am well underway on next weeks trivia, which will be titled "Dragonvale on Fire" in case you want to start doing some research ...
Nice teaser there Fletch_smf! Maybe I can get 5 points this time around
lisgie - I took a guess that Fletch_smf was super sneaky and listed them in the correct order in the question. Alas...
But I like your idea better!!!
I listed them alphabetically; probably should have mentioned that.
And sorry about the Chitlin. I thought that was the actual dragon until a search of the wiki came up empty. Will rectify that spelling ...
I had to doublecheck the spelling the first time I saw it because I also thought it was Chitlin. And I wouldn't expect anyone but those of us from the southern USA to know what that was...

I’m in Florida, about as far south as you can get! 🤣🤣🤣😎

Welcome to the DragINN for this weekends Trivia, "Dragonvale on Fire".
Below are 10 general knowledge questions, related to numbers you'll find in Dragonvale. Some of the questions have multiple answers, so the total points possible is 17.
The questions are hidden under spoilers, so you can reveal them 1 at a time. Please answer a question before moving on to the next one, but if you think about things and you want to change your mind, you can go back and edit your answers before you submit them.
www.esotericfulcrum.com/blog/answers-for-dragonvale-trivia-22nd-of-november-2020/ is the answer form at my blog for this weekends trivia. Click on the link and have both of these pages open in tabs at the same time. Put your forum name at the top of the answer sheet, and enter your answers as you read the questions. I am not collecting an email address or any other information about you, other than the name you use when you post at this forum. The important rules are:
Answers must come from your memory. Don't look for answers any where on the net, or in your Dragonvale game.
You are on the honour system. It's just a bit of fun.
Phonetically still counts. I won't mark you wrong if you misspell something.
Winner(s) will get some 3 lots of gems and treats from me, as long as they don't mind friending me in the game. I'll also draw another name at random from the entries to get some treats and gems from me as well. (If anyone can think of other things I could offer as prizes, let me know in this thread, or via PM.)
This trivia will run from now until approx midnight Sunday (BFS time). I will post the answers here when I get home from work Monday afternoon (here in Australia), post scores, and let you know who won. If you prefer I don't post your score publically, please let me know.
If you have any questions, just post them below. I will respond as soon as I can. Okay, let's get this started ...

How many different eggs appear on the fire pedestal, as of today?
{Question 2}What is the first word in the description of the Fire Dragon, found in the Info box when you select the dragon in your park, or the market?
{Question 7}The Fire dragon is the most ”famous” dragon in Dragonvale. It appears on all manner of app badges, and we use it in our forum banner. But the baby and adult form of the dragon are each represented in at least 1 decoration (not counting the fire shrine). Please name a decoration for baby and the adult? (2 points) a) baby
{Question 8}Emojis can be used to illustrate a specific dragon. For example: = Blue Fire dragon. Name the 4 dragons represented by the following emojis: (4 points) a) b) c) d)
BagMom I had to look up the translation for Answer 9. It made me lol.
🤣😂 BagMom, what language are you typing there in Texas, lol. That Fletch had to translate it?!? 🤪

Dragonvale on Fire - The Answers
Taking a week off has messed up my understanding of the time difference. Which gave Sofie a chance to enter, so 4 entries this week. Gems and Treats for everyone.
I'll post the answers under a Spoiler Tag below. If you come across this post and haven’t done this Trivia yet, the questions can be found at dragonvale-tips.proboards.com/post/201799 Have a go, and then check out how you went.

2. What is the first word in the description of the Fire Dragon, found in the Info box when you select the dragon in your park, or the market? I gave you a little clue in a question 5, by seeing just the tops of the letters.

(2 points) a) The baby appears on the 1st Anniversary statue.
b) The adult is on the Fire Dragon statue, and the 3rd Anniversary Statue and as Sofie pointed out, it is also on the Fire Effigy. Well done.
8. Emojis can be used to illustrate a specific dragon. For example: = Blue Fire dragon. Name the 4 dragons represented by the following emojis: (4 points) a) Scary Ghost says "Boo" + the letter K = Bouquet
b)
Worm + Wood = Wyrmwood
c)
Frying egg, sunnyside up showing the Yolk + Bat with extended Wings = Yolkwing
d)
Nose + Fire + R + 2 = Nosferatu
9. The first limited dragon had fire as the primary element. What was it?
Halloween was the first holiday after it launched, and Bone was the first limited dragon.
10. How much does the Fire Flag decoration cost?
It costs 100DC.
Thanks so much for playing. Lisgie and Bagmom both got 6. And Sofie and LynnMarie top the class, each with 7.
I'll have a look at the second attempts that were submitted after work today, and see how much you improved.
