I have to admit that I hadn't thought to post this and then, when I saw the welcome message on my wall|whatever, I discounted the importance of it. So, this is what "sleeping on it" is for, I guess.

Anyway, I started playing because my wife and her mother were trying to help our 5 year old nephew with the game and my wife kept telling me how much trouble they were having getting enough gold to plant food and level his dragons. Being an analytical sort, I eventually got curious enough to start playing on my account and see what I could figure out about resource management and acquisition. I have been playing about two weeks now and am currenty level 26 with two level 20 dragons, four level 15 dragons, and about 40 dragons that are <= level 10. I have helped my wife and her mother to get our nephew's gold production up to around 10 million a day and food production up to 60k per day. I have started helping with breeding his dragons to get him different varieties, since his big joy in playing the game is to see the eggs, hatch them, and then grow the babies to adults (along with the obvious fighting - boys love fighting, demolishing, and just generally wrecking things, after all).

I look forward to contributing however I can.
