[quote]Hi!

Canonically, Coliseum venues themselves are scattered throughout Sornieth and exist as actual physical places in the environment.

For instance, Bamboo Falls exists somewhere at the intersection of the Windswept Plateau and the Sea of a Thousand Currents. The Golem Workshop is likely the interior of a mesa in the Shifting Expanse.

What are the official colours of the example dragons? The ones at the top of the page for the breed's entry?

Some of these were pulled from the Scrying Workshop, but some of them are Undel's template files and use non-standard colors. You may have noticed that the Fae and Wildclaw have colors that are not exactly correct for the site!

[/quote] Good to know, thanks! And, the drop rate for neutral enemies should always be lower than for elemental ones, right? (If that's true as well, then I'm pretty sure something went wrong in the 2014 Nature festival - we'll see if it happens again this year.)

Oh, another one - is there a reason why the art corrections are noted in the Site Status box, but the fix to the hatchling apparel thing wasn't?

Are there plans for more powerful coliseum battle stones? And will our dragons ever be able to pass Level 25?

I'm not sure if this has been asked before but I've been interested in it for a while now.

Would there ever be any chance that each flight would get a dom board, just like there's a sales board? There's usually a lot of dom-oriented things that clutter up the flight's main discussion board and it would be nice if there was a section for that so both dom-oriented and discussion-oriented things wouldn't be vying for space all the time. ^^"

Art question here.
Are certain gene inconsistencies going to eventually be fixed? Like how male imps lose the daub pattern on their mane/tail fluff, where babies and females both have it. Or was this done on purpose?

Is there a reason for needing to wait five minutes before being able to refresh a dragon's image again?

For physical dragons, Eliminate functions as a high-damage move that rewards breath if the enemy dies from that move in the Coliseum.

Will there ever be a similar move for magical dragons?

Are there any plans to move "Random Dragon" and "Exalt Bonuses" above the Site Status box? That, or making the site status box a limited vertical length by adding a scrollbar for it?

It's getting inconvenient to keep scrolling further and further and further down to see the bonuses (especially on the phone, where scrolling can't be done fast like with a mouse).
