Other Game Links

DragonAdopters [game added]
2008-12-12 19:23
EilnysI think this game would be okay, considering that Yarold's is allowed to post links to it with no real problem. :)

Timezone: It's in Germany, so I believe the reset would be 00:00 GMT+1
Link example: http://Shadowpaws.dragonadopters.com/dragon_3023

utopia.lvI can not register, it says: "Registering is not possible at the moment. We try to be back soon."

I need additional info on game:
Short description of game process.
Are there only dragon links available or also links to scroll like it is at DragonCave?
Does dragons accept unlimited number of clicks?
Can the same person view several dragons and all clicks will be counted?
2008-12-12 22:05
EilnysYeah. Registering is down since they recently changed servers.

One person can visit multiple dragons, in fact it is encouraged.
The gist of the game is pretty much gathering people to visit your dragon in order to boost their growth rate.
You have to actually visit the dragon's page for the visit to count. You can only have one dragon at a time, so there is no scroll involved; and there's no worry about too many visits killing your dragon. :)

I do think that there's a limit to clicks per day, but it seems set pretty high. I've never reached it.

utopia.lvThanks for reply.

Are all links in the form of this:

DanHello, can you place the link in the forum that you are trying to add.

Many thanks

Dan

The link format should be

ZamiratheJust thought I'd put in my two cents. When I was using Yarold's for my dragonadopters links, I found that 40 clicks a day was enough to keep them happy and have the small boost in growth rate. (The boost is maybe 2%). The only thing extra views count towards is MAYBE the in game ranking, which I usually don't care about anyways. Views from others is not needed to grow the dragons at all. It is the owner's visits and time.

Now don't get me wrong. I use Utopia to get views for my dragons on Dragonadopters. All I am saying is that 2000+ clicks a day is a waste of time and bandwidth. Owners will still see the benefits at only 100 (or even 50) clicks a day. (It would also help ease the strain on the Dragonadopters server since they had to turn off registration again due to it.)
2009-03-11 11:00
utopia.lvThanks for letting us know.
Visit limit set to 200 visits a day.
2009-03-13 22:34
DemmyThe 200 visit limit is very disappointing. The visits on the dragons only have a small amount on the server. It is mostly the amount of people joining.
The limit on the visits makes my dragons lonely, because the reset for Utopia is different then Dragonadopters. Yes, it may be true that the only need 200 visits a day, but that does not happen if people are clicking at Utopia's reset, it does not count for Dragonadopters, because to the game, that IP has already visited. I hope I am sounding okay.
I just recently got a new egg, and it was growing very slow, and I noticed right away that my DrA links were only receiving 200 visits? I was very upset about this. I had to go to a different exchange to make my dragons grow again.
2009-03-15 15:16
Herryi don't agree with this limitation..it really disappoint me..if just got 200 clicks per day, i think nobody from dragonadopters will agree..and i think i just waste my time to click all of the links everyday just for YOUU in this web!!!..and waht i got is only 200??!!! it'll be a useless web for dragonadopters
and i don't think it's fair at all..
thanks
2009-03-15 17:54
SkitzophrenicIt seems like the visit limit was put into effect just because 1 person said so? :/ I liked getting 2000 visits a day because I'm a person that wants to have a high ranking. Just because someone else doesn't, doesn't mean I can't. Now I have to use another click exchange which means more work.
2009-03-16 02:51
GeckoIf your dragon's stat for other's visits is already at "very popular," then you only need 25 or so a day, maybe less, to keep it at max. Getting thousands of views a day will NOT increase your rankings, as there is an extremely low visits cap/day. Time and growth items help rank, which is based entirely off of growth, more. You can also find an increased rank points necklace.

Past that, thousands of visits a day are just bragging rights, so there's little to worry about...
2009-03-16 04:17
MogAwww I was enjoying my bragging rights... My first dragon has over 160k visits and I was hoping to see 200k but I guess I will be waiting a long while for that to come.

Let me ask this though the visits are just bragging rights technically myminicity/miniville is a waste of time that should be reduced/removed as well right? I mean all we are doing is producing more traffic for them...

Besides doesn't this site just download the html of each site? That's 10kb per dragon... I understand that this site generates a lot of visits BUT sites like Yarold's and hydra easily generate more simply because all of the images get downloaded as well which is at least 10-20x more data across the wire per visit.
2009-03-16 07:06
SolrayneGeeze, I used this site specificly for my DA links only, and because it would generate 2-3k visits daily, regardless of whatever limit is set at the DA site. Was even about to donate so I could have a 4th + 5th slot added for my 4th egg I just got, and room for the 5th in a few weeks. Now it all pointless with setting a limit at just 200. That low of a number can be done at any of the other exchange sites....and wouldn't have to deal with the huge memory hogging + FF glitches this one causes with each re-start. That extra bit of aggravation was worth it before, but not really now. What a shame....
2009-03-17 09:37
MogJust had a thought on this... If we are gonna have a 200 click cap could we have something that would be similar to the myminicity links that would click any one of our 1-5 dragons? For example, I have 3 dragons so I would add all 3 links which would only take up 1 link space and each click on that "link" would pick one of the dragons at random until each of them had their 200 or whatever number of clicks. I love utopia and have used it since... I don't even know when (sometime in early beta I think) I'm sure it has helped my city grow a lot and I would love to see it help my other links just as much as well.
2009-03-17 20:02
SkitzophrenicI enjoyed my bragging rights. That's the only reason I used this site is to get my dragons to have 100k views each. Not only that, but minicities still get 2K views while we with dA dragons only get 200? Then why do we have to view as many links? This really doesn't seem as fair. :/
2009-03-17 20:56
leoakI'm agreeing with and joining the protest. I'm one of the people that do more with my dragons than get them a few clicks a day. It took a while, but I eventually got within the top 100 rankings. Unfortunately, I couldn't get out of the mid 70s and 80s until I posted the links here. I got as high as 55 on the rankings before the cap. Now, I've slipped down between 66-68 and I'll probably fall even lower.

I used both Hydra and Yarold's, but came to a point where I couldn't get any higher. This site really does make a difference for those wanting to compete in ranks. When DA first open, the owner said there was going to be more features to the game, but at current, competing for highest ranking is the only thing to do. The game isn't much fun if all you're doing is feeding your dragon 2-3 times a week and visiting once or twice a day.
2009-03-17 21:09
utopia.lvVisit limit raised to 1500 clicks a day.

The reason I set the limit to 200 previously is what Zamirathe said:
> It would also help ease the strain on the Dragonadopters server since they had to turn off registration again due to it

Currently there are already several games disabled because the servers couldn't handle the traffic. I did not want Dragonadopters disabled for the same reason.

As of now, Dragonadopters server handles visits normally, so I think it's pretty safe to leave the setting at 1500 visits a day per link.

SkitzophrenicThank you for raising the limit.(:
2009-03-26 14:16
tiestohi, here is my link : http://www.tiesto.dragonadopters.com/dragon_80356
2009-03-26 16:29
utopia.lvThe correct link to add is:
http://tiesto.dragonadopters.com/dragon_80356

Update: Now it will accept also your original link (with www part).
2009-03-28 04:40
calenlassI'm absolutely brand new here, like only a few minutes old so if I'm doing something wrong here, please show me the correct way. I'm adding the links for my DragonAdopters babies...and can someone point me to the link where I can go to click other people's dragons. Very much appreciated :)
http://calenlass.dragonadopters.com/dragon_7252
http://calenlass.dragonadopters.com/dragon_36129
http://calenlass.dragonadopters.com/dragon_68036

Thank you so much.
2009-03-28 06:43
GeckoYou should really ask for help on the forum for the game >.>. Anyway, you can go to 'Rankings' to find people's dragons to click. There's also the game guide, FAQ, and http://dafansite.exofire.net/ that you can try :)
---
On another note, I've been noticing that the site is starting to get hit by more lag and was down for a short while just now. >_>
2009-03-28 07:08
utopia.lvcalenlass, your links are correct. As you are new here, I recommend you reading FAQ, to better understand how the exchange works.

When link is added, it is verified for existance on the game server. As Gecko said, dragonadopters.com was experiencing lag and therefore links could not be verified and added. The error message should be clear in this case.
2009-03-28 17:10
JackulwulfThe limit is fine really, I don't mind it but now only one dragon gets views. I can't give views to both my dragons. One gets all the views and the other just sits there getting nothing. Can we do something about that?
2009-03-28 22:00
utopia.lvI'll think about a way how to spread visits between the links.
2009-03-28 22:56
GeckoWhat do you mean that one dragon gets all the views? All of mine are getting them perfectly fine. You need a link to each dragon individually, and you need to have visited the necessary % for more than one link to be visited.
2009-03-28 23:38
utopia.lvThanks Gecko for figuring that out!

Indeed Jackulwulf had only one active link.
2009-03-29 04:09
JackulwulfTo Gecko: I am linking the dragons directly and I have both my dragons added to the links yet one dragon is getting views but the other isn't. And they were both added on the same day. I'm not using Utopia any different then I did before the cap was put in place and worked for me before. Here's a screenshot of my links page to show you. http://i16.photobucket.com/albums/b44/jackulwulf/UC.gif
2009-03-29 10:49
utopia.lvJackulwulf, your second link never got activated, that is why it shows 0 visits.
To activate it, you must visits at least 45% of other links.
2009-03-30 00:26
JackulwulfSo do I have to click 45% of the links every day then? Before I could click what I needed for two links and then leave them till they expire before I had to click more. Does the cap change that now so that you have to click them every single day? If that's the case then why didn't I get any views on my second dragon when I first clicked 45% of the links.
2009-03-30 06:38
utopia.lvOn March 27 you visited 1000 links, which is little less that 45% of active links.
Please read FAQ. Also please make a new topic if you have anymore questions.

utopia.lvMessage from Draconis, Administrator on Dragonadopters:

Utopia Exchange,
We have closed registration on our site to keep the traffic to the site within reasonable limits. We politely request that the limit on the visits to a Dragonadopters page be set at 500 and no higher permanently. Please do not increase it again.

Thank you for your understanding in this matter.
Draconis

Visits limited to 500 clicks a day for Dragonadopters links.
2009-05-25 08:39
Gecko(not sure if you'd rather have a bump or new thread, anyway...)

Dragonadopters has been lagging worse than ever lately; I'll see if I can get a hold of draconis sometime to ask about the limit again :x
2009-06-08 18:50
bluebell_roseI dunno, but the limit might need to be lower
2009-06-09 07:08
utopia.lvVisits limited to 100 clicks a day for Dragonadopters links.
Requested by Dragonadopters admin.

I hope this is temporarily.
2009-06-24 05:13
lexteri think that is not fair for others.. because they visit's 2500+ links a day and they only receive 100-200 clicks a day...
2009-06-27 22:30
JemindraWhy do they keep lowering it? Soon, they'll just prevent us from using DA here. ~_~
2009-06-29 09:37
GeckoDa needs a server upgrade and/or re-coding for more efficiency, pretty much, as there's more traffic, though it seems to have gotten a little bit better for now.
