These badges look fantastic! Thanks for getting an artist onboard to create these, I think they are a great addition to the club

Oh wow, those are some awesome badges, thanks for putting those together!

@Meirya
Hey, a quick question, with this new update involving eyes how will that play into the familiar scries since they aren't apparently controllable and/or how this might affect previous scries? I can imagine that having all these options will be awesome, but since they can't be bread in a particular way how will we deal with familiar breeding pairs that have undesirable or incorrect eyes?

Voting for Week 10 is now open! Vote for your favorite scries! Voting closes on Saturday evening, June 9th, and the winners will be announced later that day.

Zoom in on the images to get a good look at the entries; Google Forms and Flight Rising both shrink them, but the resolution is good enough to zoom in to full size for all the lovely details. The number for each entry is to the lower right of each scry. If all the numbers don't show up for you as voting options, just scroll left and right and they should appear.

@Familiars - I was thinking we treat the eyes like we treat dragon gender/age. Which is to say, it doesn't become part of the breeding goal, but it can be used to make a more ideal scry. Maintain the flight preference as part of the scry, but not the specific eye type, since that's not something that can be bred/controlled for.

As for past scries, well, maybe if we ever run out of familiars to scry, we'll go back and run them again, since by then more genes and breeds will probably be available too. That's... not gonna happen for a long time though. They still work as is.
