When I got a Mo and I didnt know they were so rare, it died

redfire77 • 14 January 2012 at 2:05 PM

When I got a tine and i thought they were too pink so I didn't like them. I was such a tomboy. and I let it die. on purpose. D|

goku • 14 January 2012 at 2:07 PM

I REMEMBER:
-Thinking that Mo's were the rarest thing on eggcave
-That CC standed for Cash critters
-That I Wanted a first armane more than ANYTHING
-That tines were not rare

Wanting a Balrog more than anything, them and mos were the rarest things ever! Then terrons.
Anyone with two Balrogs was super lucky X3
And I got a Balrog for a terron X3

cubexline • 14 January 2012 at 2:14 PM

Lol, Nice "Newbie moments" guys 😃 At least I wasnt the only one who had weird ones 😋

icymuffin • 14 January 2012 at 2:14 PM

When the Ghosty was so rare that they could be traded for Mo.
And at the same time Mo were so rare, it was ususal to see more than 3 Mo in the TC.

Getting some eggs from @Cubexline
Having a lot of fun
Hoarding junk eggs lol

smilies • 14 January 2012 at 2:17 PM

@Avelaingia I remember getting my first egg, a ghosty, and wishing had a drakamo X3
And remember when Ghosties were rare as?
And I was annoyed my ghosty wouldn't hatch :X

@redfire77 Yeah, I didn't like them much either X3

cubexline • 14 January 2012 at 2:18 PM

@ping: Lol, 😋 Hoarding junk eggs xD I think I remember that....

I thought "ECT" was Egg Cave Time xD
I got a Onny for my Mo I found in the cave xD I had a heart twitch xD
This user quit and I got tons of nice eggs c: I missed out on their GHOSTY☹️ Was sad. Got one xD
Hmmm.......
My few friends were @Brookie and @Jazzyleia and @katrina.
I was friends with @Balletninja during Thanksgiving!

cubexline • 14 January 2012 at 2:21 PM

@chloekins: You got an onny from a mo?!?!! Holy cow xD Nice. I really wish I was around when onny's were like that 😋

cqpkytty • 14 January 2012 at 2:21 PM

When I had a cove full of Bunthoffs. (before I quit, when they were common)
When I put a list of EVERY SINGLE creature I wanted (including rares) on every 5-common trade I made. (after I quit - I joined again, on the same account, about a year later)
When I replied to a wall post on my own wall. (after I quit)

smilies • 14 January 2012 at 2:25 PM

@Chloekins ... It doesn't...? ><

Deleted • 14 January 2012 at 2:26 PM

@Cubexline

Yep xD There is a HUGE story to it, but I'll tell it later xD
The Onny i traded you was the one I got for the mo xD

duchess • 14 January 2012 at 6:43 PM

I remember:
When I thought getting a mo was impossible because they were so rare
Wanting a balrog more that anything (because they were so rare)
Trading a roo for a terron and thinking that I got the better deal xP
Thinking that hatching a rare creature was the most amazing thing ever (now everybody wants the eggs)

celeste • 14 January 2012 at 6:48 PM

I was intimidated by the following people:

@evilyowling
@dawnie
@catherineprettty
@smilies
@whitefall
@balletninja
@chloekins
@ping
@cubexline
@glados
@icymuffin

I was intimidated by SO many more, I just can't list them 😋

I got ALL of the ten eggs everyday
I adopted UFA junk lots ALL the time 😋
I thought LEs were worth junks 😋
I thought Brohus were rarer than Shamrues 😋

Deleted • 14 January 2012 at 6:53 PM

When I was a Newbie I remember,

Well I didn't get a single LE till ages after joining because
I joined just after the 2010 CRW and no events happen for a long while. I relied on adoptions because all I could get was cave commons. I thought Unchagas were common. And I had a huge obsession for Drakomos thinking they were rare.

A lot has changed since then. 😋

I remember:

-every night, on my wall, I would type " Good night Egg cave users and Creatures" before going to bed

- @pitchblack31 was SUPER nice to me and became my first friend here.

-my first egg was a Krah name BillyBobby, but I gave him to a User to hold, and he died there because the User forgot about him.

-I got one of the glitch mummars, and traded him before Ian sent out the message that they needed to be deleted. I traded him for a Florn who I then traded for 5 lots of rare le and cc.

unebra • 14 January 2012 at 7:00 PM

thinking a drakamo was the rarest thing ever !

jazzyleia • 14 January 2012 at 7:03 PM

I remember when i first came and taigrins were new and super rare (not they are not)

orange • 14 January 2012 at 7:03 PM

When I got a mo as my first cave try😋

First time around as @katli12345 :
In V1 it was Green....but you couldn't see what you were stealing from the cave so I got ever cave creature😋 I remember having a cat family with like 10 olimpts...then giving them away when I quit. Also everyone having the uchanga obsession, so I made a fish family😋

cubexline • 14 January 2012 at 7:05 PM

@orange: Your very very first time? 😱
@chloekins: Dont forget to, 😋

@everyoneelse: You guys were interesting newbies from what you guys are listing 😋

orange • 14 January 2012 at 7:06 PM

@cubexline
If you are talking about the cave try...techically😋 It was like kinda my second...but I don't think anyone would get it on the first try right?

cubexline • 14 January 2012 at 7:09 PM

@orange: Oh, but still, very cool 😃. I got one mo a long time ago by myself, then I traded it. 😋

orange • 14 January 2012 at 7:10 PM

@cubexline
Oh lol😋

whitefall • 14 January 2012 at 8:05 PM

I remember being confused a lot.
And I ended up with a lot of Christmas eggs,
So I'd abandon one or two a day.
Until I was left with one of each.
I don't think I knew they were rare,
It didn't matter much to me anyway. ;^;

I really didn't think when I first joined,
My life was like that too.
It's like I did stuff unconsciously and not really thinking,
But good things happened to me anyway!

I wish EggCave gave me that newbie rush feeling again.
Sometimes I wish I wasn't old,
It makes me feel as if I've discovered everything about EC,
And there's nothing really to discover anymore.

cubexline • 14 January 2012 at 8:18 PM

@whitefall: I wish I was new again too lol.

Deleted • 14 January 2012 at 8:20 PM

Well...
-I thought I had to take every egg from the cave because they were all rare, and I was lucky xDD
-Trading my Paret for a Goldox O.o'

7731826 • 14 January 2012 at 8:27 PM

@orange
You got a mo on your second cave try??
Ive been here for a year and 3/4 and I have never gotton a mo from the cave. I think I'm the oldest member who hasn't gotton one O_o
