HAPPY 4 YEARS!

YEAR 4 CELEBRATIONS - Happy birthday weekend, Egg Cave! Nearly two and a half billion views and one million creatures later, it's been four very successful years! Visit the happy Macbots for a special gift from Egg Cave!

Take a look at all of the newest features.

Celebrations?! We're all about it.

Tim's Food Shoppe

Tim's Food Shoppe has been completely redesigned.
A whole new way to book creatures: filter out your immortals and easily see the creatures you need to book.
Extend your service while your creatures are at Tim's!
Cancel service early for a partial refund!

Science and Research Center: Creature Labs

A very generous, anonymous donor has covered the remainder of the recovery fund at the Science and Research Center. The thief or thieves have yet to be found.
Introducing the Creatures Labs, where you can purchase new and rare creatures for EC.
Say hello to the Flub and Trinit, the new genetically engineered species (with many more to come!):

Less Limits, More Control: Mail

There is now no limit to how many conversations you can have in Mail.
New preferences for accepting Mail: All, Friends Only, None (in Account Controls)

Easier Generation with EasyCode

Easily generate a list without immortals (even if you accidentally select one).
Ability to generate a list from an existing Cove List (no need to copy).

Strongroom Updates

The "Collect Interest" option will now be disabled for the day if you make a transaction (deposit or withdrawal) prior to collecting interest. Remember to collect interest first now!
Enjoy an increased interest rate from 7% to 8%!

Profile Updates

New preferences for accepting friend requests: Enabled, Disabled (in Account Controls)
Blocked users can no longer offer on your trades.
We hope you're not this boring, but users can now have blank statuses.
You can now specify a default Cove List to display on your Profile (in Manage Profile).

More To Talk About: Forums

Enjoy an increased character limit of 10,000 characters on forum posts (for you, our magical roleplayers).
Keep track of your character count when writing.

Adoption Center Updates

The Adoption Center in Ark City has been redesigned.
View all of the creatures available for adoption, not just when there's 3 or more available.
Abandon as many creatures as you'd like per day (no limit). Remember though that your creature is for life!

Town Hall

The Town Hall has been redesigned.

@Ian All I see is, "The page you have requested cannot be found. Perhaps you were directed here in error."

glados • 19 Jul 2013, 12:06 AM

Ian, your link is broken. 😉 And Happy Birthday, and many more!

dreamer • 19 Jul 2013, 12:06 AM

@Ian When I click for gifts, it says "page not found." Is there a reason for that? 😱

You receive 5,256 EC! A Party Hat Travel has been added to your Inventory. AWESOME! Happy birthday + all these updates, EC! ❤️

cirrus • 19 Jul 2013, 12:11 AM

Hey, I think the amount of EC you get is related to how much you donated, because I got more than 5265 @marinalily
