Poked at Hatter's Chapter Some More
Jul. 10th, 2014 07:36 pmI was a) feeling inspired that way (again, like I said, I feel it's one of the weaker chapters in the original) and b) distracted by DragonVale's new event, so it was convenient to do something that I'd already looked over a couple of times before. I do think I've made the beginning better, so yay for that.
And yes, DragonVale does have a new event -- the Firefly Celebration! It's kind of a summer-themed Magic Egg Hunt, in which you collect fireflies to gain rewards off a new special island. Unlike the Magic Egg Hunt, you get fireflies for a lot more things now -- I hatched a Cave dragon today (came with the name Schwartz, which I kept because it reminds me pleasantly of A Christmas Story) and built a new Giant Dark habitat for that and my Wraith -- got 25 fireflies for the habitat, 20 for hatching the dragon. Noice. Thanks to that, some food-gathering, some money-gathering, some dragon breeding, and 250 fireflies handed out for going through the tutorial stuff, I've already gotten the first prize -- the Dawnbreak Edifice! There's also a Duskfall Edifice, Dawn and Dusk dragons (which are Moon/Sun dragons), a Celestial habitat (which holds both Moon and Sun dragons -- Solaris can finally emerge! :D), and the Twilight Tower, which can make the sky go from day to night. The park looks beautiful with the new dusk sky, and I LOVE the loading screen. This adorable little witch with a jar of fireflies, watching more fireflies flit through the sky with a quartet of dragons. . .it's too cute, seriously. :D I look forward to earning my share of the rewards!
And in Hearthstone, one win today against a Malfurion -- it looked like he was going to have an early advantage, but then I managed to turn it around and got a concede out of him. :) I should also mention that my loss yesterday was to a GOLDEN Gul'dan, meaning that player has won 500 games with that character. I know there's always an element of luck, but I really think I didn't have a chance. Ah well -- it's really more about fun for me than anything else.
All right, I have replies to get to -- later, all!
