Welcome!

welcome to the party!!

as for your split - have you tried dragonspam_er or dragon_er? it's not really the clicks, but more the views and unique views that help them grow up.

you could try eggswillbedragons.com (if it works for you) or thedcfansite.com too.

This is the first time I'm actually posting my dragons on a major site. Besides here they are just on a forum i belong to. most of mine have very low views/clicks when they hatch. Basically it just seems to take mine FOREVER to hatch because of it. Also what's the difference between a 'view' and a 'click' is a view just checking out my scroll? I've been playing on Dragon Cave for awhile but never actually talked to anyone about it and just browsed the forums and never seen the answer to it. Oh and if I haven't made your brain explode yet do you know how to tell if your dragon is 'sick' i know they can die if you get to many/not enough clicks but people talk about there dragons being sick/having soft shell and i just wondered how they know. o.0


Sorry if my post doesn't make much since I just woke up from a nap and am feeling a bit groggy still.

heheh no, that's fine. let me see if i can answer your comment -

you get one click per IP per sprite only. when you're at your scroll - http://dragcave.net/user/trystan830 is mine - you give it a views. when a new IP is on that link, or loads the image on their monitor - like when your post loads in on my computer - that's a view. if it's a new viewer, it's a unique view. if the person clicks, it's a click. but the click only counts once per sprite.

if your egg is sick, there's another line on the decription page that says the shell seems soft. if your hatchie is sick, it'll say it's not moving much and seems sick. usually it's from too many views too fast. if you fog it for some time, when the views, unique views and time all randomly line up properly, it gets "better." sometimes, a new egg will have a click or two more than views - that means you clicked on it from the "get code" page probably, and gave it a click, but it hasn't loaded your http://dragcave.net/user/xxx page yet.

also, just so you know, when you're logged in, when you're on your http://dragcave.net/account page, you don't give it views, so you can check the sprites all you want and won't give them views, in case one is sick (like my younger daughter has a sick hatchie from too many views)

hope i didn't make your brain explode. ;)

Nope my brain actually understood all of that! Thank you for answering it I know it's something basic but I've just never found it explained anywhere.

Thanks again for taking the time to explain!

you're welcome!

have you tried the FAQ (http://forums.dragcave.net/index.php?showtopic=48) at the forum? some of it is explained, you just have to actually get *through* it. heh.

[etherealkiss.livejournal.com]

you know i think i assumed that the FAQ was ONLY for the board so didn't look at it. o.o *reads it all now*

[trystan830.livejournal.com]

heheh nope. it's for the game. and the good thing is, you can read the posts without needing a log-on for the forum.
