Unlocked and activated the spooky theme on my egg display island. Pleasantly surprised to see the full moon at the top of the theme, and bats flying up at regular intervals! Worth 1680 candies?... Not really.  I'm displaying the spooky theme on one of my lower, foreground islands, so the moon is floating in front of a background island. It's messing with my depth perception! |

Just paid crumble608 and fat-fingered an accidental gem to ceme trying to gem one of my DGBs! So only one discretionary tonight (enjoy, ceme!) |

Attention remaining contestants: it is my sad duty to inform you that you are currently in violation of the community-adopted resolution to obtain a Ragnarok dragon by COB yesterday. As the self-appointed chairman of the Ragnarok breeding committee I must reluctantly levy a 1 gem per day penalty until such time as you have demonstrated full compliance with the resolution. Please remit your payment to akaSkitch.
Thank you in advance for your cooperation.
<crosses fingers>

LOL yes, everything comes up with 2 months advance on the calendar. Am just waiting that they start the january sales before Xmas to make that budget smaller! These kids gadgets are expensive! My little friend Eddie wants a Furby ... spent some time on the net to get familiar with that thing. Totally stupid lol and scandalously expensive! I didn't realize Furrbys were still a thing. One of the creepiest toys ever invented. Haha, yes! Our daughter had one years ago (she's an adult now). She revealed to us many years later that it used to speak in the middle of the night so she wrapped it in towels, stuck it between two pillows in a single pillow case, and buried it at the bottom of her toy box in the back of her closet. |

The Ayes have it, motion carries. It is hereby resolved that all remaining contestants shall breed their Ragnarok dragon today!
Great, now that that's over, y'all come on over to the new Last Call thread and register if you haven't already...
One question: who will do it last so I know how to award my gems?

Paid newfdog22 and rulilind. I mean, really, does anyone ever go back and look at these filled out IOU lists? Still, maybe I should make one... |

I'm going to have a lot of bushes left over after this event. I think I might save them for the next inevitable event. Heh, five obstacles a day. You can almost tell my island is being cleared. Almost. |

Paid Buffy and anyahastur. One day I'll make an IOU list to keep myself honest. Probably after I'm paid up... |

"Other side of the coin"? Do you mean "what happens if Hasbro loses value"? In that case, winner gets 1 gem. I was hoping you'd say that the winner owes you gems. I considered it, but didn't feel I have the authority to command gems from somebody  |

I'm in! GCID: akaSkitch Lvl: 60 Pledge: Fortunes of the Vale FotV: Winner gets the larger value of 1 gem or (HAS2 - HAS1)/10 rounded to the nearest 1 Where: HAS1 = Closing stock price (USD) of Hasbro (NASDAQ:HAS) at competition start HAS2 = Closing stock price (USD) of Hasbro (NASDAQ:HAS) at competition end So if Hasbro gains $.76 USD during the competition, winner gets 8 gems! Like! How about the other side of the coin? Same? "Other side of the coin"? Do you mean "what happens if Hasbro loses value"? In that case, winner gets 1 gem. |

Whew, just created my Ragnarok display egg so I'm all done with this guy. Now would the rest of you laggards please get off the dime and breed one? The administrative costs of rolling this gem debt forward from year to year is eating me alive! Just want to know if you will join the next Last Call  Honestly, how could I resist?  |

Paid ceme and rachels. Note: ceme, I paid your primary rather the secondary you registered for the comp since we were already friends. If you'd like a gem to your secondary, send me an FR from that one. Just as happy to pay both! |

In a literal facepalm moment (my face is still stinging) I just realized I have been foolishly marking time waiting for a winner to be declared before making good on my pledge to gem all entrants except the winner...  Gems sent to vonfirmath and rion. Friend Requests sent to newfdog22, myke, Arkynos, and mishkasmom. |

Of course you may have to repeat the lesson 10 times before they get the message.  Or just 9 times total as I know you will still want to play  I just got a call from the Department of Unnecessary Pedantry. They pointed out that if you want to end up with one finger so you can still play then you should only repeat the lesson 8 times. |

Also several new decorations ranging from 2500 DC to 10 million DC but they are really nice including the decoration that goes with Nighmare which if you look closely will have a hologram appear in the middle (it will come and go so be patient) Nice job BFS!. The spooky fence doesn't look like it will work very well on the dark ground of the spooky theme... |

Agggh! I hate it when this happens: opened Dragonvale to check my breedings, reminding myself that it's Friday and potentially a double weekend in a few hours, and my finger takes it upon itself to start tapping on treat farms. Why are you so weak, finger? What is it about an untapped target that's so irresistible? Stupid finger. Remove the one that does not behave, the others will learn! Well, I gave it a stern talking to. Unfortunately the finger I use for wagging when I talk sternly is the very same finger I use for tapping. So that was awkward... |
