Very true. And it might not even be the ones that don't play the same. They could just as easily blame those who got daunted or happened to take a break before the goals popped up. I don't mind splurging a little gold for my goals, but I've pretty much given up on Sphinx. Still, I haven't gotten Cleopatra yet, and even if I did, no harm in planting a little extra food or keeping my extra nest full with Water eggs.

Well, it's not over until the fat lady has sung...or whatever it is they say...who was that fat lady i wonder,hmm... Who knows if there's some nice twist in the end... But if we now miss out on Sphinx as community reward i have no doubt that those who really want it also will be able to get it some other way! GL with Cleo! :)

That's how the saying goes, yeah... Maybe TL will bump up the coin count if we get pretty close. Otherwise they'll probably put the Sphinx in a treasure chest or some tournament, which I'm not looking forward to. Thank you for the support!<3

I know the team is working very hard to fix all the glitches but I just wanted to report that my oasis is now gone from storage. Do I need to email them, kooky panda? Or is their a link to a site for this?

Yes, send support an email

I don't understand how anyone can believe that TL doubled the coin reward in battle lottery because they wanted to help - it is business to them, and doubling the reward gives more of an incentive to bother entering arena, more reason to use gold...they're not in this for popularity LOL! And that is ok ofc, they're running a nice lil game while making money, but plz don't go all mushy thanking them - you're already paying their salary! :D

And that is ok ofc, they're running a nice lil game while making money, but plz don't go all mushy thanking them - you're already paying their salary! :D

I understand that TL is a business, and that they have salaries to pay. I buy gold to support this game that I love. I don't expect something for nothing. I also know that it's in their best interest if we come closer to getting the total, because more of us will be willing to pay a smaller amount at the end than a larger amount.
I was also taught to be polite, even if I sometimes forget that when I get upset.
Having said all of that, and knowing that TL is informed about what is written here, I would rather they know that I am enjoying the challenge, that I'm not giving up, and that I appreciate any chances they give us to come closer to the prize we are all trying to get. I will also appreciate any other help that they give us in this challenge.
Your negative attitude and comments are unhelpful at best, and could actually impact people's behavior at worst. If enough people say something is impossible enough times, it can make others think "Why bother trying".
Personally, I'm trying to keep it positive, be grateful for the new adventure & prizes, and welcome any assistance TL might offer to make this challenge a success.
And most importantly, it's my right to "go all mushy" on them if I want. Just as it obviously is your right to complain constantly and be negative.

MakJulos
03-22-14, 02:14 AM
Well you are right ofc, go as mushy as you like jim23cash - it's all how you want to look at things, and we are all different - myself i may see straight through things in a more realistic cynical way, and demand more before i go soft, but if you are happy as is that's...probably better even! So keep up the good job! :)

How do you force close?... My oasis is missing... Already restarted etc... No luck...

Sparkly888
03-22-14, 03:33 AM
I think TL wants this event to end well as much as we do. Not because it's a mushy sentiment but because it IS good business. The more likely we stay interested till the end the more likely we are to spend gold.

I too buy gold with real money for this game. I got the game for free for starters. And for the amount of enjoyment and entertainment I have gotten out of it, it is still very cheap entertainment. If I wasn't having fun I would never have spent a nickel on it.

I'm sorry to see people getting disheartened with the event. I see islands this morning where people have stopped farming.

And I understand this May have something to do with the current glitches. I'm still playing hopefully and getting all the coins I can. Where I spend gold is about getting the dragons I want. Extra coins is just a secondary bonus for that.

Cynicism gets us nothing. We can still finish this event with dignity.

On iphone, close game, double click on home button (round button at bottom of screen). This opens a list of currently open programs. Find Dragon Story, and hold finger on icon until it starts to wiggle and has a red minus (-) in the corner. Tap the minus on icon and it will force closed the game. To close this, hit home button once. At this point, you may want to restart your phone also. When you go back in, it will open game like for the first time each day.
Good Luck!

If you are on IOS7 - to close an app, you simply swipe upwards on the thumbnail to dismiss it. You still have to double-tap the Home button to bring up the list of running apps.

Yup, she's mostly correct, that's why i wouldn't say anything is impossible - as i've stated before on here it's not over until it's over...but i guess that also being too realistic about what event is for and how it's set up can be interpreted as negative....i'll try to keep my head up among the fluffy clouds better myself...

Coins at 2005 atm btw, without any speeding except for in the temple of randomness ofc! :D

Edit: It would be nice knowing (if we don't reach final goal) if it had been possible at all to make it through without players spending gold - if it would've been possible to just have everyone play game constantly and collect enough coins that way....or if it's in the great plan from beginning to have some players pay for everyones rewards.

I just hit level 17 and eligible for this quest a few days ago. I am working hard to help with the community prizes even though due to the lower level (no tournament access) and late start I doubt I will get Cleopatra. I have managed to keep an egg in my nest most the time, keep sending my dragon on the quest and keeping crops growing. I expect to hit 900 today.

My personal total is 2583. 20 hr crops will be ready in less than an hour.
We are being rewarded for doing things we would be doing anyway. Paying a little extra for gold just shows our passion for the game. Nobody is forced to do anything. It's a game and it's all voluntary.

3 days to go.

I don't think so, just looking at the forum members contributions, it's just a small chunk and a majority of them are using gold to speed up the nest too. Makes me wonder how many DS players are really out there from the total coins required, or is this just another gathering of data for future activities.

I have bred and collected some great dragons over the last ten days such as:
Helios
Mercury
Prism on the nest one
Lacewing
Pyramid
Cleo
Mummy
Cherry blossom
Leprechaun
4 leaf
Celtic

I too hope we reach the goal and will continue to farm, battle, quest and breed.

I wish I could donate equinox as I already have one also have an extra lacewing on the nest.

Just got my Cleopatra, and that egg is going on the nest to contribute to the community total as soon as my magic hatches in a few hours. My current total is 1813, and I plan to keep harvesting and battling and questing so we all get closer to the sphinx. (And besides, I've found that events like this make me plant a ton of food, and I end up being able to evolve dragons like crazy, which in turn increases my silver coin count and helps in the next tournament.)

Between the Egyptian event and the Equinox tournament and scrambling to evolve dragons and get the last few platinum ingots I need to craft my Platinum dragon before it goes away... Opening DS is certainly never dull!

Good luck to everyone!

Well done and good start even if you don't get all the personal rewards at least you can get the community ones

That so one thing I love about this quest the community awards gave me motivation to try because I felt I had a chance to earn something.

I wasn't speeding things up except when I planted a different crops than I intended to. Today however I am speeding thins up just in case I can get the individual prizes and of not I can do my share to help the community earn the Sphinx.

I now have 6 platinum dragons and ready for the 7th.:cool:

I'm encouraged by the fact that the bar seems to have moved a lot more today than it did yesterday... maybe lots of people were out doing things on Friday night, and did more DS playing on a lazy Saturday?


I know I have got one platinum and about 50 away from my second hope I can get them before it goes away.

Well, you give me hope! If you think you can get 50, I can certainly get the 10 I need! (After my last mining expedition, I got up to 190, and I've got a 10 hour evolution going that should be done by morning.

Hi everyone! I just got my cleopatra yesterday. I won't be able to play for the next week due to no internet access. If the community does manage to get the sphinx, will I get it even if I log in on the game after a week? Or will I not get it?
Good luck everybody for the sphinx! Wish I could contribute more towards it, but unfortunately I can't play. Hope my 1900 coins help!!!

Within the game, there's a LOT of encouragement among neighbours. Everyone on iOS I've visited has at least one (if not more) neighbour cheering each other on. And I've noticed non-iOS players being very encouraging, too.

Doing a "Community" Event is a leap of faith for both Players and Devs. Especially when it's an initial launch for a specific platform within the community-at-large. We already know there's a few cooties running loose what with extra pyramids & habitats accumulated, missing Mummy dragons, disappearing Sphinx and whatnot. I shudder at the thought of launching this global, across all platforms. Just think of it this way...we're Beta-Testers LoL.

I'm having a great time playing DS. It's both a diversion and a creative outlet. I'm enjoying the "virtual" comraderie and very good natured competition among neighbours, too. Please, don't anyone become discouraged. It's rather exciting!

Hmm..i think i'm the only one not liking the event (well, actually i think it's very nice, just not how the community part is set up) so it must be a big success! Lots of extra gold spent makes TL happy, meanwhile players are happy too - definetly a win-win event! :)

Okay, my first post in this community (aside from bugs issues) with a question: I just reached over 750 - I started the game late, since I had problems figuring out some stuff - at which the game told me I was now part of the community effort, does that mean there are aprticular things I can/should do?

I'll be very happy to do so if it's needed and I can, but I'll need someone to tell me what that would be. ^^;

jim23cash

I have collected 2933 coins.
I believe this has been a great event regardless of the outcome.
I have bred and collected some great dragons over the last ten days such as:
Helios
Mercury
Prism on the nest one
Lacewing
Pyramid
Cleo
Mummy
Cherry blossom
Leprechaun
4 leaf
Celtic

I too hope we reach the goal and will continue to farm, battle, quest and breed.

I wish I could donate equinox as I already have one also have an extra lacewing on the nest.

I have been trying for Mercury for a while, just lots of waters, but I remembered someone said that it seems like breeding luck increases during tournaments or events. When I saw you had gotten one, I went back to den, and got one on third try! woo hoo! Now I just need Dark Angel to round out my diamonds! Happy Dance!
I have been speed breeding a bit, and will continue to do so until the end of the event. I'm also sending out quest every 4 hours and planting non stop. Since I plant Rushrooms when I'm awake, I've also been evolving my new dragons more, & have gotten 3 or 4 platinums already, & traded them for gems. ( I had no empty habitats, just room for 1 white!) I think I might squeeze out one more before it's gone. The mining gave lots of extra food,too- but more on the land expansion side.
My current total is 3258
Community current total is 190,595,892 and still going up!
Hang in there everyone, and good luck!

It means that you are now eligable to collect the community prizes as well as your personal prizes. You don't need to do anything different but just keep planting food, always have something on your nest to hatch and do the quest every 4 hours.

If you do battles, you can also battle hourly.


Good luck.

Just keep doing what you've been doing!
As often as you can:
Harvest food, Breed Dragons, Do Quest for coins, and Battle in Arena for coins (&masks). If you can afford it, keep nest(s) full by buying Air or Water Dragons between Breedings(or speed breed).
You are adding to the community total, so just watch it go up with the rest of us as we try to reach enough to get the final prize: Sphinx dragon!
The other prizes should already be in your storage.
Congratulations! If you reach 900, you get the Pyramid Dragon. If you can reach 1800, you get Cleopatra, but that would require spending some gold, probably quite a bit at this point.
Good Luck on Pyramid!

Grats, By reaching 750 you just scored the Palm tree and Mummy dragon.

Everyone's now hoping for the Sphinx but we need to reach 252 Million in the next 2 days 7 hours

Just keep contributing coins:

Farming = 1 coin per hour per farm
Breeding = 1 coin per hour the egg needs to hatch (wait or speed up)
Arena = 1 coin for each battle you win
Air dragon Quest = 4 coins

@ciarjen @jim23cash @dubbletooteeyef - thank you all for your answers. :)

I just reached level 29 so I don't think I can make it to battle level before the end of the event, but the rest I am doing like clockwork. I am pretty sure I can make it to the pyramid dragon, then I'll have to see how far it is to the next item. The last personal one I'm pretty sure is out of reach, since I don't buy gold.

Maybe I - and everybody else - get lucky and we make the last community goal. :)

To go a bit Native: Gambaru shika nai!

Er, I'm Japanese and that's a very common saying here, especially when things get tight, in English roughly something like: "There isn't anything (to do) but try (hardest/your best)."

Maybe we'll get it, maybe we won't, but I think a big part of the fun is, really, contributing to the best one can.

At the very least it's better than giving up before the results come in. :P

When some1 tells me- U cant do this or that- i usually go ahead only to prove myself the opposite. Its pretty simple to set urself a negative mood . The worst thing is when this tends to become a life style or a way of thinking. In some cultures theres a beautiful quote-Faith precedes the miracle-. A positive attitude doesnt hurt any1. And ...

I'm also thinking that a lot of more casual players are going to get to the 750 mark at the very end. My fiancee, who doesn't play nearly as much as I do, just got her mummy dragon and palm tree this morning (or maybe yesterday... she doesn't celebrate as loudly as I do...).

I just got Cleopatra on the nest. I think if others like me are just getting her then it will tie up the nest for awhile and so no increase in points but tomorrow when they all hatch we should see a jump in coins. That is my hope anyway.

I admit, I haven't been playing every hour, as I have a massive yard that needed cleaning (4 1/2 hours to mow it), and 2 kids AND it was the weekend, but when I did get on I played hard! I battled in arena 3 or 4 times to make up for not getting on every hour, I sped up a few eggs, and sped crops.

Please TL, extend time just a little? Or double some coin rewards? It would be such a shame to miss out on sphinx by some tiny, piddly amount when DS players have worked really hard ( and I have to say) REALLY well together to reach the last goal :)

Either 5 or 8 during the day, (8 hour overnight) and then close to timer expiry 1 hour crops

I suggest Before planting crops look at the timer and be aware of when the crop will expire and make sure you will you be awake/around to harvest it and replant another crop.

AhHa looks as if we're getting over the earlier case of Giveupitis.

Let's see. I have over 2,600 Egyptian Coins in the kitty. There are two Water dragons and one Coral dragon on nests due in the morning (CTZ for me). Not sure what is being bred; it's 16-hours and will go to a nest in the AM, too. Then there's what ever may breed up trying for the elusive Diamond dragon. If I am fortunate to breed Diamond, bet on my using Gold to get a hatchling LoL!

Ok, I may be an old lady but this is making me as excited as a school-girl. It's encouraging knowing human beings still have the ability to work together toward a reward!

Hi Everyone, I feel like I know so many of you! I follow the forums quite regularly - new dragons, battle tournaments and now, this World Event! (I just don't post much...) there may be others like me who follow along quietly, a bit shy to write. I have 3282 coins to contribute so far ... 3 nests going, working the farms, speeding with gold, battling and questing...

Pages back, I like what ToshiNiMiya gave us, a Japanese saying, "Gambaru Shika Nai" for when 'things get tight' roughly meaning "There isn't anything (to do) but try (hardest/your best) and a few pages later, LemonadeMouth shared a beautiful thought as well, "Faith precedes the miracle"

(I hope and pray I quoted you both accurately - I don't know how to copy and paste here!)

That's a scary thought..an amount every player should reach, or else they won't have filled their share of total, not done their part....brrr....luckily noone in this nice community would demand other players to play game this or that way, seen it elsewhere though, yuk.... As for reaching personal goal n then quit, i doubt many do that when there are more rewards to gain...well, i hope so anyway.

I have earned 3,768 coins by Battling, Questing, Farming & Breeding. Also took this opportunity to re-activate my Diamond Temple and shore up my Diamond hybrids for battling. So far I managed a 2nd and 3rd Infinity, 2nd Unicorn, 2nd Mercury, 3rd Crusader and 2nd Quetzal. I already had a 2nd Gold. So that leaves my Prism, Angel & Dark Angel backups for another time. My nests are stacked!!

Good Luck to everyone. Let's keep those points coming in. :) :) :)

The opportunity was missed for everyone to have the full 14 days on the timer for the event.

Those who were playing on the standard version got an icon on the right notifying them of the event but those playing on Valentine's version (many - because we had no notification to switch) got no icon.

This could have easily been solved with an icon appearing in the V version too, to notify that we needed to download the other app. Or, at the very least, some communication from TL on the forum.

This community event has been the best yet on Dragon Story. :).....

Well, maybe it doesn't look too good, but who knows what happens, it's not over until it's over! I doubt TL will extend time - maybe we're not supposed to go all the way...or rather, maybe goal is set very high just to test us - i am not one bit worried that those who really want Sphinx won't get it, it's not like TL will put brand new dragon in trashcan because they had set event goal too high. But yes, it would be nice getting it from the ongoing event ofc! However, i still think that it can be good failing...hmm if it ever can be a good thing failing i dunno...but i mean, if they manage to push community real far, make a bunch of the extra dedicated players spend their gold for community, and thanks to their effort we win the event - then they know that maybe they could've set the goal a tiny bit higher even, because a lot of players will go "all in", so next time.... Well maybe not, i dunno... But anyway, i do agree that they should give us more time - loyal players working this hard doesn't deserve to stumble just before finish line!

Coins per hour required

Hours since last check


6,294,304
Added since last check


694,225
per hour since last check





We need about 2 extra days

My forecasts have had us at 228 Million for a long time now, we may burst to 235, but 252 I think something needs to change

TL should extend by 2 days or throw 25 million in the pot (hint hint)
