Hopefully breeding will still be available tomorrow.

Nope, breeding ends tonight 12am EST. That´s 6am on Mainland Europe and 5am in Britain.

I aso sent a present to all who`s DC name I knew.

Didn´t we have a list of names somewhere?

Aww, they are so cute.

2nd best AP catch ever: http://dragcave.net/lineage/gQm1z

It seems the opening of the market is delayed. Maybe tomorrow...

When it´s open there will be a new area on your Garden-page.

Merry Christmas everyone!

Got another Holly: 8th gen spiral with Skywings, for someone with none or just a messy Holly.

LadyNova:
All mine gendered the same as their Holiday parents, so have I missed
an announcement
I also checked all my Christmas dragons offspring and all of them are
just one gender (same as Christmas parents), they haven't changed in
different years, same goes with Valentines. Holyl was the only one I was
able to infulence.

No, all the Christmas (and Valentine) dragons have only one gender, expect the Hollies.
Yulebuck - male
SnowAngel - female
Ribbon Dancer - female
Winter Magi - male
Wrapping Wing - male
Solstice - female
2014 - will probably be female again

Speaking of Hollies: I have this 6th gen Holly to give away. To someone who doesn´t have one at all or to someone with only very messy Hollies. PM me please.

Here´s the new Christmas Star.

Still missing the one from last year...

I just saw four. I´m too slow to catch them, though.... and I´m locked anyway.

But I got this beauti from a friend who won a HM Holly in the last raffle. http://dragcave.net/lineage/Tj2iU

Found some nice 2nd gen X-mas dragons.

I´m always surprised of how great looks a pairing with Frost dragons. I think I´m going to breed most of my X-mas dragons with Frosts, too this year.

Quote from MiaSkywalker

I love the idea of the Christkind, idril, but that sounds very religious, so my family would never do it.  Tell you a secret: I'm not Christian.  Therefore Christmas is a purely secular holiday for us.  I'm figuring that really it's the Yule holiday, so that's why I want to celebrate it.

Yes, we still celebrate Christmas very traditional. With the majority of Austrians being catholic Christmas, Easter and All Hallows are still very religious. I'm usually not very religious either, but with the rushed and more commercial pre-Christmas-Season, I don't mind a bit solemn silence and contemplation.

EDIT: There seems to be something wrong with the quoting function?

Lol, also had to giggle about Satan.

Here in Austria we don´t get our gifts from Santa Claus, but from the Christkind. That´s basicly an angel girl (mostly with fair curly hair), which is derived from baby Jesus. Due to americanisation Santa (and reindeers) are slowly taking over, especially in business. I refuse him though. IMO the Christkind is much cuter.

We usually open our gifts on Christmas eve. Before we open our gifts someone (mostly me) reads the Nativity story to all and we sing some traditional Christmas Carols (Silent Night,....). After handing out the presents we have dinner (mostly fish) and then we spend the rest of the evening together playing games.
On Christmas day after lunch we usually visit my grandparents, were all my aunts and uncles and cousins come together. And we hand out presents again and have dinner.
On December 26th, also called St. Stephen's day in Austria, we take our horses for a ride to church where day get salted bread as blessing for the next year.

Can I still sign up? I totally forgot.

Yep, me too. I need some of last year's (Solstice), I have to replace some others and I want to hunt for nice lineaged Hollies.

LadyNova, I sent you a PM with the Crimson egg. I didn´t get a Thunder egg, maybe someone else can try.

LadyNova, I can try for the Thunder and Royal Crimson in the evening when my other eggs have hatched.

Christmas breeding usually starts around Dec. 19th.

Thanks.
I hope I have more luck with the new Christmas star this year. I never got that one from last year. I still need that one, too.

There is probably no new Chrsitmas tree, but will there be new variants for any of the other event flowers?
