[Resolved] Service Announcement

March 21, 2010 at 10:46 PM

Hi everybody!

Egg Cave has experienced some massive growth within the recent weeks! It's no surprise that our server eventually had some hiccups today. We got overloaded with visitors! This is a fantastic thing. ;D But we feel bad for our poor server -- it crashed.

We've been down for a couple of hours, but we think the site is stable again (we're back!). :D If we do go down again, everything's safe and fine; just hang tight and we'll be back soon.

Thanks for being a part of Egg Cave as we grow a ton together!

UPDATE: Egg Cave is currently in the process of moving servers. If, at any time, Egg Cave becomes inaccessible don't worry -- we'll most definitely be back. After the move, Egg Cave will be much faster! Thank you for your patience.

UPDATE 2: Move complete!

That's pretty impressive. Getting there. x-x

luna_key • 21 Mar 2010, 11:16 PM

I fed my entire friends list yesterday or friday and got NO feed backs. ☹️

ksac512 • 21 Mar 2010, 11:24 PM

That sucks luna_key. I was sooo scared Egg Cave was gone forever! I kept on refreshing and praying that the cave picture would show up.

eggtrainer • 21 Mar 2010, 11:25 PM

Glad it's back! I thought it got hacked or something o_o

love23bug • 21 Mar 2010, 11:26 PM

I wasn't on and didn't notice...I just knew it had been being slow. But at least it's back up now, and fully functioning!

eggtrainer • 21 Mar 2010, 11:31 PM

Yep it said "this site has been disabled" or something like that.

dragonkeeper • 21 Mar 2010, 11:41 PM

yes it was dificlut to get on at least it back up thank goodness

joy • 21 Mar 2010, 11:55 PM

The site going down was a good thing, who would have thought. So glad to hear Egg Cave is thriving so well. 😸

thursdays_dove • 21 Mar 2010, 11:56 PM

Hahaha I didn't even notice.

jaclynmarie15 • 21 Mar 2010, 11:59 PM

I had a total freak out. XD One time it said the site was disable, and I totally flipped! D:

smilies • 22 Mar 2010, 12:00 AM

I wasn't on 😱

cprather • 22 Mar 2010, 12:00 AM

that sucked

cricketory • 22 Mar 2010, 12:19 AM

cool, but bad

toothpaste • 22 Mar 2010, 12:47 AM

anybody here? what should I do? Somewhere offered on my lot: 1 tine and 1 florn. they offered A RHINEDORF! 😱 should I accept? πŸ˜ƒ?

toothpaste • 22 Mar 2010, 12:48 AM

I can't use money on sites. Should I wait, or accept now? πŸ˜‹ help me decide! 😱

qesque • 22 Mar 2010, 12:53 AM

Not sure. I have a couple trades up for CS critters too 'cause I can't use real money on sites. =)

love23bug • 22 Mar 2010, 1:04 AM

@toothpaste- Wait until Ian answers someone's question about the EC Conversion, then decide based on that =].

toothpaste • 22 Mar 2010, 1:14 AM

@love, good idea, but I wonder how long I will have to wait πŸ˜‹ @qesque, 😸

love23bug • 22 Mar 2010, 1:19 AM

@toothpaste- I'll let you know as soon as I get a response from him =].

qesque • 22 Mar 2010, 1:20 AM

I hope he responds soon. I'd love to know. It would be appreciated by a lot of Arkians too, I suspect. ^__^

dragonkeeper • 22 Mar 2010, 2:06 AM

goodnight egg cave and toothpaste I would accept the offer but it's up to you

sammynina19347 • 22 Mar 2010, 2:44 AM

Wow, that problem bothered me for hours cuz I'm addicted to eggcave. Good night everyone. (=

elluwah • 22 Mar 2010, 2:53 AM

Haha, I totally missed this whole downtime thing *sleeping*.

dionaea • 22 Mar 2010, 3:11 AM

*missed the downtime too* No terrons for me today ☹️ Second time I got up early for no reason at all...

elluwah • 22 Mar 2010, 3:21 AM

O_O Whoa, that was so freaky. I'd clicked on my Pinkunk to see how many feeds it had and it CHANGED RIGHT IN FRONT OF ME.

elluwah • 22 Mar 2010, 3:21 AM

Like, literally, the image swapped to being hatched rather than an egg whilst I was looking at it. *forgot it was evolution time*

losorlaugh • 22 Mar 2010, 3:39 AM

lol I was playing football when the server crashed...

galewinds • 22 Mar 2010, 4:53 AM

TDN was down too, but it came back a lot sooner than Egg Cave did. TDN + Egg Cave= server problem.

toothpaste • 22 Mar 2010, 4:57 AM

πŸ˜‹

toothpaste • 22 Mar 2010, 4:58 AM

@galewinds, I have an aerlo w/ a fairy world travel too! 😸 It's fully grown now πŸ˜‰

toothpaste • 22 Mar 2010, 5:08 AM

g'night anybody-who-could-be-here-at-the-moment! 8D

gizmo • 22 Mar 2010, 5:31 AM

Hi all!! Happy we're back! Luckely it was a really nice day yesterday, so I just enjoyed that instead of EC... 😊

bazoo • 22 Mar 2010, 5:46 AM

So many travels right now. XD Uh I have no idea what happened, getting really busy towards the end of the school year!
