Mysterious Asteroid problem

cfmtfm • 10 February 2012 at 2:04 PM

I was doing my normal routine on EC, checking the Alkub Racing, feeding my pets, randomly stealing from the Asteroid, posting on the forums and using up my 10 tries in the Cave.

As usual, the one I head to first is the Asteroid. The one I'm unlucky with [1st the worst, 2nd the best]...
... and after I click Attempt to Steal Egg...
I don't get welcomed by the "fail" message.
I get welcomed by something I've never seen before:

This doesn't use up my tries [tried about 20 times already], it just annoys me. I'd rather lose 100 times at the Asteroid than not lose OR win at all.

Help?

ps. Excuse the "Mount Fuji" tab. It was for homework. And the Solitaire. I play it when the Internet gets slow.

@chloekins
He even replied to my pm today lol.

He should have placed the new monthlies in yesterday
But I guess we'll get them today 😃

@Piucca
Wow, he hardly ever replies to PMs!
He had an update today!😱
He replied to one of my "lock this topic" tickets a few days ago!

What new monthlies?

Also I thought it doesn't affect the Asteroid since it's just the Cave ones.
@piucca

[Wow. This topic got posts quick.]

@chloekins
Thats good 😃 lol

@cfmtfm
I have gone to the MA everyday and
yet to get anything from it.
So I am sure you wouldn't have gotten anything anyway.
Then again, you might want to wait if he is giving us more
of a chance to nab one.

EDIT:
The Valentine monthlies, or cave monthlies.

I'm having the same problem 😋

kiwibird • 10 February 2012 at 4:20 PM

yeah, same... no asteroid for me.

saskya • 10 February 2012 at 4:31 PM

It is happening to me as well. PHP error pops up instead of a 'you didn't get the egg' message. /grin/

Ian • 10 February 2012 at 4:37 PM

Fixed! Asteroid tries have been reset for the day. 😃

Sorry about this.
