Last Call For - LEATHERY DRAGON

[Skitch]

Whew, moved my hydra out of the nursery and can finally start pushing eggs out again. Now just have to get the geode, summer, and daydream displayed and out of the way. First fail was a quake and the second appears to be a storm. Off and running!

Buffy,
Why?
If wapatango gets her second. Or, Gods forbid, third I will simply add an X for the ones no longer eligible, and a second √ when the eligible ones are paid.

That table was a pain to create, and would be even worse to modify.

Oohhh, I did not know...

How about an Excel's spreadsheet? modify it as much as you want, then upload it like an image.

When it was proving difficult, I tried an XL spreadsheet, but when I cut n pasted, it just came over as text. So I went back to hand coding. Now that it is built, it is pretty easy to edit though. As long as I am on a real computer. It would still be a pain on a tablet or phone. Modifying would still be a PITA. (Edit: change the data. Modify: change the layout)

I didn't think of embedding an image of the spreadsheet. I may try that next time. Thanks for the tip.

Last post of the day...

Reference to Skitch's post above,

Look at his avatar, and read this "can finally start pushing eggs out again". It's just funny!

then

"Off and running", after all that pushing, no wonder.

Will send FRs to Skitch, kydolind, loaftx and rachels.

A note to all those wonderful people sending me gems every day : I will give my gems to pay my debts for the next days, so I won't be able to return any gems. Feel free to invest them elsewhere.

I missed out on making a fun advance pledge due to crazy IRL stuff and lack of creative thoughts when I was able to get to the forum. However... seeing all the fun in the last couple of days, I want to play! I don't know if I can make an official additional pledge at this point, but here's what I plan to do either way: one gem to everyone who breeds a Double Rainbow when trying for a first Leathery. A friend request is on its way to you, Kiyoji21.

My level 18 Storm & Lava headed to the island yesterday and started well: Firefly then Scorch. However, they are now breeding a DR. At least they inspired a pledge.

Time to practice your friend making skills wapatango.
1:04:48 in my cave. L20 Quake and Frostfire

[Skitch]

The tally so far: Quake, Storm, ...Crystal

At least I got the Geode out of the nursery, so until the crystal moves in the only blockers are Daydream and Summer.

[anyahastur]

My second fail on the cave: storm. At least it's not a long one. On the island I am still waiting for my sun/rainbow.

[rion]

Now have Crystal in both my breeding sites... Sigh.

[vonfirmath]

Both of my parks have acquired 48H eggs in attempting the Leathery. So our breeding is on hold while we wait it out for the moment. The baby park is either a Moon or a Rainbow (its second Rainbow, first Moon!) And my main park is a Sun or Rainbow. Moving along now.

[rulilind]

I had a couple of openings in my nursery, so decided to speed up my most recent fail. Looked and saw the long incubation time, saw the 9 at the end of the gem count and thought I had a moon or rainbow. Then I saw it was 29 gems. I am out. As GregDarcy is out, I will start paying my pledge tonight.

[Skitch]

OK, that was pretty dumb. Although I'm using Hail and Lava as my primary Leathery pair I had the bright idea to use Sprout and Summer as my alternate pair since Sprout is one of the fails and I need another Sprout and a Sprout egg. The sandbox has that combo listed with only a 17.9 hour average fail. That doesn't seem TOO bad (or so I told myself in my rushed analysis). But so far I'm only failing with epics, giving me an average fail much much higher than 17.9.

At this rate my alternate pair is dominating the nursery and preventing efficient throughput of fails from my primary pair. In retrospect, possibly not the best approach for breeding a limited!

Time to write that approach off as a Silly Idea and adjust accordingly.

Fails so far:
island: sun/rainbow (still waiting)
cave: crystal, storm, sun/rainbow
At this rate I really don't know when I'll get my leathery.

We are only a day in, you will get them, like always.

I am starting to sending out FR. Can we do a series of GCIDs, separating each GCID by a comma?

[wapatango]

I have great friend-making skills. I'm also great at paying attention, which is why I had no difficulty in making my table. Thanks crumble608. I might have to send you a gem just for the Fabulously Gay Idea of making GregDarcy do all the work and then borrowing it.

DGB= Daily Gem Buddy
**= # of gems owed for GD's leathery

I have sent FR's to skitch & rachels.

I will start paying up tonight. However, since I can't pay RULILIND (we are already daily gem buddies) I nominate GregDarcy to do that for me. Oh, and speaking of GregDarcy, what was that about modifying your table if I got a second leathery? I just got a 1:04:48 in my cave as well. Like you, I was using frostfire & quake. The fact that we think alike is very scary... At least mine weren't level 20. They are only levels 18 & 16.

I hope that everyone is enjoying the rewards of all these crazy pledges.

Gems are starting to fly and as I am dodging them I will try to keep count of how many I received per day. Poppy mentioned that he got 20+ gems/day, one time. Let's if we can break his record. Will check his post for the correct number. Unless...Poppy?

Guys - Thank you for the gems!! Xx

I see you have checked off rachels' gcid in your table, implying that you have indeed sent the FRs, but I haven't received one yet (even with a reboot, which generally kicks GameCenter in the fanny).

Strike that, FRs finally came through. I guess they were stuck on a particularly spiky piece of the cloud somewhere.

Also, this is fair warning to GregDarcy that I too will be stealing his table unless he Copyrights it before I breed my Leathery, forcing me into gem debt status.
