The number of attemps at an Emerald could easily be that high if they are burning through gems to speed up breeding and nursery times. I have 3 Gamce Center IDs, 6 BCs, have been breeding a minimum of twice a day since last Thursday; I have 1 Sun, 2 Moon, 1 Emerald now in one of the GC NBC, and never attempted to count the Crystals, Tree, Mountain, Moss, Lichen, Cactus dragons. At one point I had 4 Crystals, 3 Mountains, a Tree, a Moss, and a Moon in my 3 nurseries. So I'm at about 70 attempts with every gem burned that I have earned or been given and still only have one Emerald. I'm not going to buy gems for accelerated intervals.
