[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!

You can't get much from terron eggs anymore. They're just so common now. I remember when no one told the secret when they figured it out...

qesque • 22 Mar 2010, 8:59 PM

What are people willing to trade their Balrogs/Rhinedorfs for? =)

lynncrow • 22 Mar 2010, 9:01 PM

does this mean the cave is all better yet XD

vampire666 • 22 Mar 2010, 9:01 PM

I have no idea. And I know the terrons are common now but I also have a hatched swornt, treelar, and tine that go with it.

luzal • 22 Mar 2010, 10:32 PM

hopefully the server doesn't crash again

potato • 22 Mar 2010, 10:38 PM

When I got to the homepage it says "this site is deleted". I used google to search up eggcave so when I clicked the link to the blog it -c-

potato • 22 Mar 2010, 10:38 PM

worked. Then after I logged in it led me to that page again and I clicked back to the blog and now it works :|

saintrose • 22 Mar 2010, 11:04 PM

Glad to see the site's back up and running properly. I was wondering what was happening when I tried and failed to log on a while ago. 😊

wen • 22 Mar 2010, 11:28 PM

it happened again? I was watching grey's anatomy so I had no idea XD

smartie2742 • 22 Mar 2010, 11:41 PM

The site actually does seem to be loading faster for me. All this time I thought it was my computer that was slow!

candiiduckii • 22 Mar 2010, 11:49 PM

HURRAY - eats all your views-

smilies • 23 Mar 2010, 12:09 AM

[t=18111149]Lot #18111149 😱[/t] I'm SO bored. Eggcave feels so slow, what it needs is a plot! A PLOT! EASTER PLOT??? PLZ!

smilies • 23 Mar 2010, 12:21 AM

EVERYONE WHO WANTS AN EASTER PLOT TO MAKE EGGCAVE EXCITING AGAIN AND STOP PEOPLE QUITTING COMMENT ON IAN'S PROFILE... 😱 or something...

doverly • 23 Mar 2010, 12:24 AM

Yay fast server!

xxxmahiruxxx • 23 Mar 2010, 12:31 AM

That was scary. When I saw it said "site deleted", I was like "What?!"

sammynina19347 • 23 Mar 2010, 12:45 AM

Arg, I hated the lag when the site was moving. Thank goodness it is fast now!

sammynina19347 • 23 Mar 2010, 12:47 AM

@Smilies - We should have an easter egg hunt! πŸ˜‹

squirrelbite • 23 Mar 2010, 1:33 AM

Ahhhh.. that explains a lot lol

love23bug • 23 Mar 2010, 1:39 AM

@sammynina19347- I love that idea πŸ˜ƒ. Maybe we will!

love23bug • 23 Mar 2010, 3:11 AM

Grr...Egg Cave went down from about 2:59-3:09 AM ECT, and I MISSED TERRON TIME! >.<

elluwah • 23 Mar 2010, 3:36 AM

Y'know, for a faster Egg Cave, it's actually extremely slow for me this morning. It took me 4 minutes to open this blog D:

galewinds • 23 Mar 2010, 4:07 AM

good morning 😊

lizardfeather • 23 Mar 2010, 6:22 AM

Lol it got fixed fast

kota • 23 Mar 2010, 6:48 AM

good morning, welcome new server

dionaea • 23 Mar 2010, 7:11 AM

Well, I would like something for easter, but the downside of a plot is that you usually only get 1 pet from it... I'd rater just have the

dionaea • 23 Mar 2010, 7:13 AM

pet be released normally so I can do the 12 o'clock trick and get more. But if the prize is something else (essence/stone) I'm all for it πŸ˜ƒ

galewinds • 23 Mar 2010, 7:28 AM

I wouldn't mind some new eggs, but not really interested in a contest. That is a busy weekend for most? I know it is here....

killberry • 23 Mar 2010, 7:31 AM

Still pretty slow for me. Haha.

ginna3525 • 23 Mar 2010, 7:32 AM

good morning

crowvict • 23 Mar 2010, 7:40 AM

morning😊

auraboros • 23 Mar 2010, 7:59 AM

A plot? Hmmm.... That would be cool. ^^
