I've seen the few videos by Pet Simmer Julie about this challenge, and seeing the diagram someone on Tumblr made just inspires me!
[quote name="But Ash! What's a bottleneck challenge?"]I'm glad you asked, quote box! For those who are unaware, a Bottleneck Challenge is a challenge where you take thirty two (32) dragons and breed them together. Then, you exalt the siblings and parents and continue the cycle until you are left with one dragon![/quote]
I want to have some fun and restrict myself a little to make it more challenging, so here's some guidelines/rules:
[b]Gen 1 Specific Rules[/b]
[list=a][*]One of the dragons in a pair must come from my lair, whether they were pre-existing or just hatched
[*]The other dragon in the pair must be gifted or bought from the auction house
[*]The two dragons must have similar genes (slightly under or same rarity), good color range, and they must be the same breed[/list]
[b]Gen 2+ Rules[/b]
[list=a][*]For every pair that breeds, I will post the offspring. You guys have the ability to vote for which offspring you want to continue the linage. Voting ends when the next offspring are hatched.
[*]Gene rarity and breed do not matter when deciding pairs
[*]Dragons from Gen 2 [i]must[/i] be offspring from Gen 1. No other dragons may be purchased to continue the lineage.[/list]

[b]Updates[/b]
11/11/20: I'll be updating the above guidelines just to make things more fair and less hard on me. The 24 hour voting rule will change! Instead, the voting will go on until the next nest is hatched. Also updated the third point on the gen 2+ rules for better wording. Changed "Gen 2 onwards rules" to "Gen 2+ rules". Added link to Gen 1 pair list.

Since it's been well over the allotted time for the decision and no other votes have come in (we love a good tie), I've decided that I'll be going with the female pearl! The next pair to breed will be our Guardian pair...which I still have to place on the pair list ^^;
