20 Cave Approaches - Daily

Even as someone who *can* get in 40+ Cave approaches in in a day if I put my mind to it, 20 seems a bit excessive in regards to people who have circumstances beyond their control.

(At 15 I bit my tongue, as I think that's fine as a HARD level, and with the right tim...

@soupcan Feeding creatures can be strangely soothing and relaxing, I can get into a rhythm and feed 500+ creatures in a row. It's also fun coming up with names for all my creatures, a lot of the ones I trade for have 'placeholder' names so I rename them (though renaming costs ec, but it's not much)....

Twenty cave attempts are excessive. I checked the cooldown with a timer and noted about 3 hours of waiting for this round of cave ten extra cave attempts since ten free + 10 more = 20. I might also do some tracking for the quest but for pricing reasons. Especially if you are racing against the clock...

@soupcan Not on-site, but there is a great user-run site that has tons of helpful tools including wishlist-making. https://eggcavity.com/
Some people also just make a list on their profile or on one of their pet's profiles.

@captaincookies I agree. And that's the MINIMUM amount of time that it would take, assuming someone checks every 20 minutes on the dot. What if you aren't able to check it that often? What if you don't get on early enough in the day? Tough luck!

On top of that, it's ALSO a 300 feed day. With bot...

I got a Tenalp the 8th month that ive been on the site :’) sounds like i was REALLY REALLY REEEALLLY lucky

Haven't visited this site since like summer of last year. Logged on, saw vleermus was back, instantly dropped 10 bucks on one. No regrets. Though that makes me no longer f2p haha. Might dip off the face of this site again after this post, or maybe I'll stay a bit to up my vleermus.

In other news...

@nanami
Because we don't have galleries! Lol. Users did the same exact thing on Neopets before Neopets introduced the gallery feature. Priced items really high in their shops. :-) I took my gallery down a while ago and am waiting for them to add galleries to the site.

dragongirl02 • 13 February 2023 at 2:16 AM

Quest can be tricky if you still need to save EC, and I was trying to save some for SARC. To make it even worse, if you end up against the clock with only ~30 minutes - 1 hour left and get lousy rng on a batch of them, you're screwed. Luckily today's RNG was nice for me, at least considering its rud...

As mentioned, if it has a registered e-mail address. I would agree that at the very least a warning e-mail should be sent to let them know that their account will be deleted, if they do not log in within a given time-frame. It could be a week, a month or any amount of time, really. And just logging...

1000% against.

I dislike when sites do this. My whims and times in life can take me all over the place. I am grateful to the sites that are still around and have kept my info after a while. And sometimes it has taken me that long to be able to recover my accounts (sometimes it's running across...

daisycat • 11 February 2023 at 4:25 PM

Agreed! I've been wanting a gallery feature on here. 😊 I just posted about this on the dailies megathread. x) There's also this thread with the same idea.

daisycat • 11 February 2023 at 4:22 PM

Regarding the topic of questing, and how you'll search for an item and find it priced very high as display is a shop... Let's introduce item galleries! :,)

Having an item gallery would...
- remove the frustration caused from searching for a quest item and finding one for 99,999,999 EC.
- add a...

dragongirl02 • 11 February 2023 at 1:34 AM

I noticed slight issues. Yesterday was busy at work, so when I got a chance to do yesterday's task once I got back home, I was basically against the clock. Luckily I'm used to having to do fast clicking/tapping. I could only do all but 1 task because the cave was rude and gave me a 25-minute cool do...

@heatherm19

The 5 Quests in a day is one I'm not even going to *try* to complete. It wears me out just doing one. I know a lot of people just cancel quests and wait for the cool-down to run out, but I actually spend the day refreshing at the NPC shops. (I feel a sense of pride when I can find a...

heatherm19 • 11 February 2023 at 12:16 AM

@shadowfaxe As far as I know, a daily doesn't count towards the 25-days unless you complete all of that day's tasks and get the "Complete Today's Dailies" progress-checkmark.

A lot of us have talked about total tasks instead of total days, it would give a lot more leniency to users who have jobs/...

korbinia • 10 February 2023 at 8:48 PM

@twinkle [yeep] I just realized you literally wrote the lore for Smittens, you'd definitely be the expert on that if you had a Smitten character lol

and thanks for the pings I don't know many active people on the site rn

korbinia • 10 February 2023 at 7:26 PM

@twinkle Cool thanks good to know. Haven't been on this site for years and forgot how everything worked lol. I'll go recreate that now.

snowywinter • 10 February 2023 at 8:08 AM

@daisycat
Confession time: I'm glad i wrote it all down, because my memory is my own worst enemy these days.
I'm probably more open to interpretations of it now than I was a year ago. (Even if the core idea is still back in my brain somewhere.)

Adding to what @/snowywinter said... I do think looking at this long-term it might be a bit too much. We are still in that beginning stage where it's new an challenging an fun (well, more or less), but realistically how many users will be able to keep up over the course of the month, every single mo...

Egg stage description is still making me go 'blargh' and I've yet to come up with anything better.

@daisycat Thank you for all the feedback!

snowywinter • 9 February 2023 at 10:43 PM

@chihiro_sang thank you ^^ ...though I hope if it was a luck theme (that would be neat for CRW some year... all "luck" based creatures) that it would be in a general sense. I wouldn't want players to think these were only omens of bad luck.

And thank you for bringing this old suggestion back to l...

snowywinter • 9 February 2023 at 9:58 PM

This isn't criticism of the new features, this is a "me" thing. This is just feedback.
But I am totally burnt out by it. Past three days I pretty much stopped caring. Two days ago i even forgot to collect the bonus EC for feeding.
I pushed myself too hard tying to meet the Daily tasks. Ones that n...

Hello! I'm trading/selling this starred Tiver Female egg. I don't know what it's worth, (Still kinda new to this site) and I really don't want/need this egg. I'm mostly looking to sell it, But I'll trade it for pets I don't have too 😊
