Chocotravaganza Exchange event close!

chocobox4_large.png


Thank you to all Egg Cave players who have participated in this year's Valentine's Day event! Over the short span of the Chocotravanganza Exchange, nearly 1.2 million creature feeds were made.

EVENT CLOSE - Since the event is now closed, you can no longer receive new Chocolate Boxes from feeding. You can, however, continue to exchange them amongst yourselves and spending your remaining Chocolates Received at the Prize Shop through the end of this month.

FINAL LEADERBOARDS - The Chocolates Found event leaderboard is final, but the other two leaderboard categories are still in play.

SIKEREE RETIRED - The Sikeree has been retired from the Cash Shop Park. We hope you got one if you wanted one. February 2015's Cash Shop Monthlies are still available, however. Get yours!

Introducing Evolutions and Stats in Real Time

February 19, 2015 at 6:17 PM 77 Comments

EVOLUTIONS IN REAL TIME - After one of the biggest improvements on our stats system, Egg Cave is proud to introduce creature evolutions in real time and 100% live creature stats, including views.

We're growing up and getting smarter, dad!


We're most excited that there will be no more delays for any daily stat resets. Gone are the days of "my creatures didn't evolve today!" or "feeds didn't reset."

A NOTE ON CREATURE LEVELS - Since creature images are still generated only once per day, the Creature Levels printed upon the image can become outdated as the day progresses. Rest assured that, despite this, the system still recognizes and uses the live Level of the creature (not the printed image Level), particularly with creature immortality.

CONSIDER THE EFFECTS ON FREEZES - Since creature evolutions are now occurring in real-time, don't procrastinate with things like freezes, as you do not have until ~3:00 AM the next day to complete your freeze. "Buffer time" for freezes is a thing of the past.

WE'RE UPDATING DOCUMENTS - Since real-time evolutions haven't existed in the history of Egg Cave, allow us the next week to update our documents about creature evolutions and stats.

CHOCOTRAVAGANZA LAST DAY - Today is the last day of the Chocotravaganza Exchange event. Continue feeding through the rest of today to receive more Chocolate Boxes! Tonight at 11:59:59 PM ECT, you will no longer be able to receive Chocolate Boxes from feeding.

The Prize Shop will be open through February 28.

BAKERY - The Bakery has added these cute chocolate turtles into the mix.

CLICK EXCHANGE IP ABUSE - We're cracking down. Egg Cave does not permit IP abuse in the Click Exchange. The system now detects if you're using too many IP addresses to generate illegitimate clicks or hoard XC between multiple accounts of the same owner. If we detect abuse, the system will issue a temporary Exchange-only ban (not a site-wide account suspension).

Regular, active users of the Click Exchange have nothing to worry about nor should they change their Exchange clicking behavior. The system detects and prohibits extreme and erratic IP behavior. For example, having a "high" volume of incoming or outgoing clicks to your account will not accidentally "trip" our detectors.

With us cracking down, you'll notice that the Click Exchange will have more creatures available to click and that Exchange Credits (XC) will be more evenly distributed amongst the participators. Thank you for helping us ensure a fair and equal Click Exchange for all!
