@balletninja ~ Good idea. π But it has to be something more, right??
balletninja • 8 May 2011 at 8:13 PM
@taffy789 I bet it has to do with the days of the week, month, or date.
taffy789 • 8 May 2011 at 8:13 PM
Or time. π
balletninja • 8 May 2011 at 8:17 PM
Yup!!!! We are on to something!
taffy789 • 8 May 2011 at 8:36 PM
Not really I think , we're just saying what it MIGHT be. XD
balletninja • 8 May 2011 at 8:43 PM
I think there has to be a pattern! And the Science and Research Center is looking at it π
wolf-obsessor • 9 May 2011 at 4:19 PM
In my honest opinion, I'm sure there is some kind of pattern.What would go into it would be, at certain times of the day, a creature would be in a certain slot. Though the time varies, as does to witch slot would hold the creature. Since we do not know the coding behind the automated creature/slot appearance time, to us it is luck when we come upon one. I'm sure if we had records of when people found a creature and at which slot they found it, eventually we could figure out the coding behind the mystery. But then the fun and luck and rarity would all be lost!

I got mine 3rd slot, 4:02-ish PM, and it was a tenalp. idk what I did differently, from what I've heard, I think it's all luck, luck, and more luck. π
lilones • 9 May 2011 at 6:20 PM
I wish I could have luck to get one.
shadielle • 9 May 2011 at 7:17 PM
In my opinion, it's merely random... =\
balletninja • 9 May 2011 at 7:23 PM
I think until we figure it out, it is ovbiously luck!
rabbitwanter • 9 May 2011 at 7:24 PM
i have terrible luck π i got mine...ummm...NEVER >:| lolmaybe its a certain amout of time when somebody else gets it o3o liek 1 hour, then 2 hours... IDK xDor cheating with multiple accouts >_>"i always choose teh middle slot o3o idrk y tho

Problem is, we need the times. I tried gathering it before to see if it was kinda like the Turmy on Neopets.Problem is, not everyone wants to share & it's kind of hard to find all the asteriod creatures.Ian kinda seemed to imply that it wasn't just luck though.(Isn't everything on the web made of codes though?)
Zac • 9 May 2011 at 7:57 PM
I am 90% certain its random. π However, I think that the slot might have to do with the species. From what I've seen, the aliens gained seem to be in slot order or storticai, tenalp, pareteorsite.But someone correct me if I'm way off. π
redfire77 • 9 May 2011 at 8:15 PM
@zac yea, there was this theory in the official asteroid thread topic about a 5-7 day period for the storticai, and you needed to choose the 1st slot, a 5-7 day period for the tenalp, and you choose the 2nd slot, and a 5-7 day period of the pareteorsite, and you choose the 3rd slot. something like thatπ
icymuffin • 10 May 2011 at 7:58 PM
My cousin got a Storticai from the middle/right slot, she said.But either way, anyone want to work on figuring out the solution to asteroid(if there is any)?
chibiloki88 • 11 May 2011 at 9:46 PM
all really interesting. there is no such thing as random for computers; its all a code/sequence that hopefully is pretty random, so it always is a code of some kind. but my guess is as close to random as possible (not that i would know)
icymuffin • 11 May 2011 at 11:47 PM
^ Exactly.But based on Ian's new blog post, it kinda seems that it really is all "chance" rather than time/slot
scerunner • 12 May 2011 at 9:09 PM
I WOULD GIVE ALMOST ANYTHING FOR A TENALP!!!
icymuffin • 13 May 2011 at 7:30 PM
Just like many other people. That's kind of why some of us are here...
swymr_krys • 3 June 2011 at 8:37 AM
I think it might be that each player gets one at a certain time and slot that is different for each account. That would account for everyone's different times, wouldn't it?

this is hard like i've tried for nearly a month! and still nothin'..... :"(
