PSA: Embracer Group has purchased Deca Games. Deca states this will not affect DragonVale.
Yesterday, Embracer Group, a parent company for businesses developing and publishing PC, console, and mobile games, purchased 100% of the share capital in Deca Games. Deca will be run as 'an independent entity within Embracer for the foreseeable future'. Here’s the press release.
Given the history of DV with Hasbro, there is understandably some growing concerns. The Deca DV rep assured players that DV will operate as usual under Deca.
Isn’t it a crazy world . Hasbro sells to decca x millions $, half a year later Decca sells to Embrace for x + z millions of $... Hasbro must be disgusted, had they sold to Embrace they would be many more millions richer! And at the end of the century Amazon and two three others will own the world, us included lol (well not me as by then and will be gone since ages).

Not sure where to post this, so trying this thread. Is there a way to contact a DV player who now longer appears to access this forum. This player faithfully sends me a gem, but his/her name is always grayed our so that I can’t return any of those gems. I tried sending a message through this forum, but that won’t do any good if the player never checks the messages. I feel so bad not being able to send back gems; any idea of what to do? Thanks!

Sometimes the game will log out of your Game Center account. If your friend who is greyed out is a GC friend, go to the Social menu and click on the GC Login button. Sometimes you have do it a couple times or restart your game for the settings to catch. This resolved the issue in my game. I believe this issue occurred with wapatango as well.

adlerist is correct. I did have that exact same problem you are having mishkasmom, and logging into GC in the social menu inside DV solved the problem for me.
I love my vine dragon avatar created by ElektronX. Now, if only BFS would add it to the game...

Thank you both. Unfortunately, I had already given away all my gems fir today before I came here to see if anyone had an answer for me. When will I learn to come here first BEFORE I do anything in the game???!!! I’ll see if your ideas will the trick tomorrow. Thanks again!
From past experience, does anyone have an idea when the next discounted island cost event might be?
I actually just looked it up a few days ago because the Lind family couldn’t agree on when it last occurred. I thought it was around Om of Noms, but I was wrong. The last extravaganza was in late March.

Hmmmm... I started playing in March during the Shellebration event and don't recall there being a discount on the islands. Do they only do one event per year?

BFS and Hasbro would normally do 2 a year. We have no idea if DECA will do this but I would think they would. I would also love to see the return of the Shimmering Solstice event so we can breed gem dragons to help with twins. They are almost impossible to breed during the month of and then trying to get a twin when the timer does pop up is even more difficult. I also would love a twin weekend now that I mention twins. It has been a long time since that happened.

2 a year? I didn’t know that. Of course, I’ve been back for less than a year. rulilind maybe my plan isn’t so crazy after all. I’m glad I didn’t abandon it.

Thank you Amos! I'm going to try and hold out buying another island a little while longer in hopes they do a 2nd one soon. I would also love a gem dragon breeding event since I failed to get a Jade 😖 Fingers crossed they do both soon!

I also started playing during the Shellebration. I was able to buy the small (Lost?) island and there was also a Gargantuan Island available to purchase. But no standard islands.

A quick reminder to everyone I gift. Please, don’t pay me back. I only level dragons to level 10, so I don’t need the food. And I have 11,000 gems that I am never going to use, so gems are wasted on me. Please pay it forward to someone who can use them. 😀

The island sale occurs during the Expansion Extravaganza. It’s considered a mini-event, so it’d be ideal for a break between events, although sometimes BFS overlapped events with the Extravaganza.
Here’s the wiki page for the mini-events/Expansion Extravaganza. As you can see, there isn’t a clear pattern for the Extravaganza dates. It always includes a new island, and sometimes a new max level, so whenever BFS had time to create this determined when the mini-event would occur.
Reviving the Shimmering Solstice mini-event was mention to Deca by the FB Game Rep several months ago, and I added it to the Dear Deca thread, but it’s definitely worth repeating over and over on all threads! Deca is aware of the mini-events and our desire to see them reinstated. It’s just a matter of whether they think it’s a good idea, and if so, when they can schedule it, as they likely have the next event or two calendared.
I don’t know if Deca has an Expansion Extravaganza on their mind. But on other DV sites, the forum, and messages I’ve received from members, there is definitely a great interest and need for more islands and a sale, so I’ll bring it up to Deca next week, when the Deca DV rep is back from holiday. Cheers!
598 dragons. I wonder if the 600th dragon will be this year’s anniversary dragon. That would be kind of cool.
Deca asked the Game Reps about DV’s anniversary many months ago, so we knew they were aware of this tradition (they also know an anniversary statue accompanies the dragon). Last month, Bloodstone mentioned on the staff thread that the 600th dragon is due soon, so I informed Deca in case they weren’t aware of this milestone celebration. They jumped on it quickly and told the Reps they’re working on the 600th. It should be released after this event.
I thought members would like to know that the forum is truly making a difference with this game we love so much. Thanks to the forum, the 600th dragon will not be missed, bugs are being addressed or have been repaired, and in-game issues that lead to confusion like the end dates for events or the mismatched timers in the Market and News section have been fixed.
Thank you everybody for making DragonVale better for everyone. Bravo!

Just discovered this great resource in the OP of this thread. Very nice work.

MinyaZ, you are absolutely astonishingly amazing! When I first mentioned this project to you, I thought it was too ridiculously large to reasonably ask someone to take on, and felt bad for even suggesting it. And here we are, not even a week later — and you’re done! 🌟🏆🌟
