So there I am, chatting away when someone points me in the direction of yet another online take care of a pet sim, only this time it's dragons. Yup, that's right, raise your own Dragon. Well, I already have a starving Neopet, completely uncared for, because I cannot be bothered to play the games associated with it. So, I figure it's another one like it. No, I'm told, it's all done off views and clicks instead, oh and can I have a look at their dragon eggs to help them hatch. Fair enough, says I, and wander off to look at the site, sign up and have a look. Nope, not a lot there and some eggs to examine, but nothing for me, personally to do there. I get bored and wander off. Then I wonder if I missed something and go back to the front page. WOW! there's an egg waiting for me. I select it, and then there is another, hey, someone just nabbed it and so it goes. Next thing I notice is that I have four eggs waiting to be hatched. Now how did that happen, guess I must have got carried away Oh wait, I need to help them hatch and be raised. I feel guilty for clicking on the eggs knowing that I face an uncertain future. And so now, my little dragon eggs require views and clicks to stay alive and by reading this sorry tale, you may just have done that. And for helping to save that most rare of species, a bundle of bits and bytes with no form other that that given by my imagination, you have my thanks. ;D ---Update--- Just in case you are wondering what has happened to them all. Take a look at the Dragon Scroll

You only need to click each egg once. Hopefully after a lot of views, unique views and clicks the eggs will hatch into baby dragons which will then grow into full dragons. If it all works out, the eggs in the sig will be replaced by hatchlings in the next four days or so. I still cannot understand why I am so nervous about trying to get enough clicks for it.

Who knows? I've given them the clicks they were asking for. Just watch out for soft-shell.

Looks like two now...
So do they need more attention to grow to adulthood?

They still need more unique views and clicks to help them grow from hatchlings into full dragons. But all the ones given so far will not be wasted. However, as everyone who has read this thread will have helped in some small way, I thought I would offer something in return. A prize if you will. All the Hatchlings need a name and so I offer it to you viewers, the chance to name one of them. The best or perhaps most appropriate name given for a single hatchling will be used. If you really wanted to name a dragon after yourself, now is your chance. I await your suggestions.

Wait, so the premise of this game is that you sneak into a dragon's cave, nab an egg, and then pimp said egg out to internet strangers so that the heat of their gazes will hatch them? One of them so needs to be Smaug. ;D

Well, given that the hatchlings are shortly to turn into Dragons, I have just two names, one of which is probably taken (sorry dotchan) So currently, the White one gets named El Conquistador. Anyone else? PS: If Smaug is not taken, the orange gets named as well

Just checked, Smaug has already been taken

Also, I want to name one of the dragons, but don't have a name yet so I probably won't get to. Good luck with your kids.

Apparently, I can start breeding them They don't have to be named immediately, so you have a while. I am open to suggestions. Oh any best luck to you and your future Mrs NAF1138 as well.

Maurice seems like a good name for a dragon. Only if he speaks of the Pompatus of Love.

Well, they have all finally hatched and two of them now have names which have not been used before.
Kat: The Green one is called "Val Con"
KidV: The white one is called "La Conquistadoress"
NAF1138: If you want to name one, better hurry up.
Anyone else feel like naming a Dragon?

Name the Orange one Rhaegal after one of the dragons in song of ice and fire. I always thought those dragons were awesome.

Congratulations MHaye, the orange dragon has been named as Rhuagh.
C'mon NAF1138, are you going to name the last adult dragon, or wait until another one hatches.

Well I was off getting married and it looks like I missed out. Name the next female that hatches for me. I want it to be (word that relates to the look of the dragon) Ivy.

Congratulations NAF1138, I hope the day was both memorable and special. If Ivy has gone as a Dragon name, then I may try and use Hedera or possible Lovestone instead. I think I know which egg will be appropriate as well.

NAF1138, the green one is looking good for you, although the name Ivy is taken.
Anything else you would prefer?
There is a couple more there for naming if anyone else is interested?
