On Male Tundras, is the paw in the background supposed to be a arm/hand or a leg/foot?
The official ruling from the artist who drew tundras: it's the back leg, though we certainly see how it could look like either with the location it's poking out from!

Why are Mirror dragons called Mirrors? There's nothing in their lore or in the Plaguebringer's lore that even hints at why this is.
The mirror dragon gets its name from the second set of eyes it possesses. A pair of two eyes set against a mirror becomes four! In its original sketch, the mirror dragons had more of their anatomy mirrored (dual tails, wings, front legs, etc) but this was later scrapped. The name stuck through to the final release.

So my question is this: Are you going to add them to the Credits page and/or make announcements when you bring on new people as staff or keep them on the down-low and just let it be a surprise?
I mean, I know we don't really need to know, but it would be nice since coding/bugs/engineering in general is a big concern for a lot here.
Mutron is new to the community but not to the
Flight Rising team. Mutron is not a front-facing team member and will not be available for private messages or the forums, as they are not involved in community management. Their work is behind the scenes on infrastructure, so you're most likely to only see Mutron in the Site Status Box.

Will you announce the date of the colour wheel update, or will it be a surprise?
As a general rule, we don't provide ETAs, as any number of things can happen during a development cycle that could delay, push back, or indefinitely delay a new feature. With that said - because of the nature of this update, we will likely announce when the expanded color wheel will go live to allow players time to make or save breeding pairs to take advantage of the new color possibilities.

It's been quite a while since the last registration period--any plans for another one coming up? Or are we waiting for full open registration at this point?
Registration windows are scheduled when our engineers give us confirmation the site is in a healthy state to support an influx in registered players, web traffic, and player activity. When we schedule a window, we will announce it on our front page and social media with as much lead time as possible.

These structures on Guardian's rib cages, are they supposed to be highlighted ribs or are they gills? They are in the same location as the Tidelord's gills, and minus the gill webbing coming out of his, they look the same. Being the patron creator of Guardians, it would make sense. So are they ribs or gills?
On dragons not of the Water element, they are ribs. On Water dragons, they are gills. Though you can add additional gills to the neck through the first Wavecrest Saturnalia apparel!

Will the achievement be updated to mirror the growth of the site? and it that case, would they be posthumously awarded, or be entirely to gain yet?
Changes and updates to the Achievement system are a part of the ongoing site rewrite. It is likely one of the last pieces we'll move over, due to how many parts of the site it interacts with. At this time, we have no plans to add to the system until that section is rewritten.
