So guys, I'm going to be doing a bit of a giveaway here. Waiting for the MODs approval, but this is how it's going to go down.
I have $15 spare. So I'm either going to be giving away 3 $5 packs, or 1 $5 and 1 $10. I may randomly up this if I gather more funds... but we'll just have to wait and see.
To enter into this giveaway, simply follow these rules (all of them, I will not count you if you don't).
Steps:
- Sign up to this board so I can PM you about an email I can contact you on should you win.
- Post a little introduction about yourself, and what you love so much about Flight Rising. Be honest, I don't want over the top showy answers, I just want honesty.
- Post what you'd do with the three extra days if you got the early access code.
- Follow all the Forum Rules.
Winners will be chosen in two ways. One winner will be chosen by myself and a few selected guests, and the rest will be chosen by Random.Org, with a screenshot provided to prove they are winners.
And for any of you who are interested in ensuring you gain a code, or a pack bigger than the ones offered, I will be offering up a trading section for me to purchase the pack for you, and in return get some of the items out of it and/or your first clutch of hatchlings or whatever.
... damn that sounds creepy. Should rename myself Rumplestiltskin. I'll give you your wish... but in exchange, I require your first clutch of surviving eggs! *insert evil cackle here*

Hi there!
Hmm, introduction... Well, I'm SpiritOfSakura (call me Spirit if you like), and honestly, I don't have much to say about myself. (I love dragons, though, does that count? Oh, and anime, Pokemon, and reading...) I've been stalking the FR site for a while, pretty much ever since I heard about it and the beta opened. I'm totally psyched for the site! The breeding and customizing your dragons seems like it'd be really cool to get unique combinations, and the minigames and coliseum look like they could be fun too.
If I got the early access code, I'd probably spend as much time on the site as possible during the extra three days. I'd want to breed my dragons right away, and then start foraging and such, and trying out the minigames--pretty much sampling everything, getting used to the site, and seeing what I might enjoy doing the most in the game.
...I think that's pretty much it?

Hmm I'm Manticore, I go by Manti, and I'm ArgonGryphon on the subreddit, figured I'd go ahead and post here. I uhhh...I like birds? And Dragons...and bird dragons >.> I've liked ND's art for years, found her back in HS and have followed her off and on since then. When I heard she was making an adoptables site, I was pretty excited.
Uhhh let's see, what I like about FR. Well, the main thing, I think that I look forward to is an adoptables site that isn't sprite based. I don't know why but I'm tired of looking at sprites all day, especially cruddy dragon ones *coughs* But so much of this is just so appealing. I like the battling system, the genetics, though I wish they were a bit more complex, and the gathering system seems really cool too. Familiars are also something I really like, especially the bird ones, I love birds. Don't much care for apparel, but I'm sure I'll find some things I like.
What would I do with those three days...well, I'd hopefully get some gathering in, maybe some battling, and of course get going with breeding my starters (I hope my random isn't ugly...x.x) I mostly just don't want to have to wait and listen to people who are in early getting talking about their dragons! I'm a rather impatient person at times, haha.

Hi there my name is Harpy, I'm mostly Harpy everywhere I join on-line, if not then sometimes Harpoona. I'm a fan of dragons, dogs, and I think pretty much every animal there is, and nature (so you can probably guess what element I'm gonna join when the time comes.) Random useless fact: I think my ears look like hobbit ears...i.e. a bit pointy.
I love FR for it's lore, it's art, and the dragons, I've already planned my first dragon and am already setting up his story and why he has his clan. (A fae in charge of larger dragons...should be interesting). I'm hoping to do back stories on all my dragons. Also i love the fact that we can dress up the dragons, and nothing looks..tacky.
With my extra 3 days I would make sure to gather enough food, get the clan's story straight, my random's story straight and maybe breed, if they are the right match, otherwise I'll wait before breeding. I will also play some games to get my treasure up, and get myself better acquainted with the site.
Also thank you for doing this! I would gladly give you my first-born (dragon) for this, or my soul! (Well half of my soul, the other half would go to the developers of FR xD)

Hi,
My name here is Aerojazz, which I choose because it is my boyfriend´s favourite radio station. I love dragons, ever since I was little and went to Wales. I dont exactly understand what it is about dragons that I love so much, but they are by far, my favourite animal. Maybe is it because they are so big, or because they can fly.. Maybe because of their magical powers or their mystical backgrounds.. I just don´t know, haha! Ive been following NeonDragon since I believe 2006 or 2005 maybe. And ever since I found out about the flight rising project on her website, Ive been following it and checking out their social media pages almost every day! What I was and still am most excited about was the lore and announcements of new familiars and dragon genes, cause the artwork and the inspiration I personally gain from it, surprises me every time! And for the game I look forward to the minigames, the colloseum and the collecting aspect of gathering as many different types of dragons as possible, and all the familiars and apparel clothing! Pretty much everything!
If I were to win the three extra days first of all I'd be totally psyched, but I would most definitely use those three extra days to get accustomed with all the features they offer on flight rising, such as the colloseum, the mini games, the markets, everything!
And that's pretty much it..
Thanks for giving us an opportunity!!

My name is Tanya, but you guys are free to call me Nohricanis if you wish. I've been a fan of NeonDragon's art for years, which is where I first heard of Flight Rising when it was probably only the beginning of a concept and just a few pieces of art. Then, not thinking it would ever amount to anything (what can I say? I'll admit I'm a bit of a pessimist!) forgot about it until about a couple of weeks ago when I went to browse ND's gallery again. Realizing it's become more than a concept has gotten me unbelievably psyched, especially since I've been proven wrong about it and it's close to becoming a reality. It's taking all my self control not to just have everything related to it constantly being F5'd! I love to read and learn about the world of the games/books/etc I'm interested in, so I really enjoy the lore that brings Flight Rising together. The Dragon Gods are wonderfully designed, and so are the breeds. I also like how simple breeding colors is; after being on Wajas for a couple of years I was getting pretty fed up with how easy it was to breed a muddied mess of a mutt that nobody wanted. Uploading your own skin is a nifty idea too that I haven't seen on any other website I know of. If I had three extra days I would try and cram as much as I could into them. First off, breed my starter and her partner if I like what the randomizer gives me, but if I don't I could always wait until a better suitor comes along. I'm sure there's going to be a massive baby boom without my help anyway! I'd do all the gathering I could, mostly food with the occasional treasure hunting for some extra money. And I'd play every game at least once; I see there's a jigsaw puzzle one and I love those! Also, try out the Coliseum and hope I don't die horribly. Once I get all that out of the way, I'd start seeing if I can decide on a good backstory for my random and any others I pick up since I already have my clan and starter all figured out. And maybe even get some RPing in once I'm done with that and if there's any threads up. I plan to stay very busy! But the most important thing? Driving all my friends nuts those first three days with "LOOK GUYS, DRAGONS! GUYS LOOK!"!  |

Hello my name is Melodybreeze ^^. I'm a high school from the U.S.A that enjoys Anime/manga, video games, writing and reading. There is a lot of things I like about Flight Rising but, one the things I like most is the art. It's actually how I first found it. I was originally looking for people to commission dragons for me and I stumbled onto the dragons drawings of Flight Rising (and the rest is history because I imminently got interested once I read about it.) And secondly has to be the battle system. I'm a HUGE fan of Pokemon and the battling system reminded me of it. From choosing their moves(battlestones) and raising them to be the perfect fighting force.
Ok what will I do if I got the early access code... hmm... probably a multiple of things. Even though I would really want to start my battle team I think it would be in my best interest to start breeding first. Since it will help me get even more dragons so I can expand my lair and help newer players as they come onto the site which could in return befriend and help me later. Then I would probably go to the fair grounds to gain treasure to buy tons of battlestones and potions for battling (and may be a appearal or two). Then I would go strait to battling and have the goal of having the strongest dragons!
