More Ways To Earn EC

thepells4 • 24 June 2011 at 3:44 PM

I have TONS of creatures, and sometimes, when some are out of Tim's, no one feeds back, and I'm bankrupt, I need to watch them die painfully.

I went on a feeding spree yesterday and fed coves for 3 hours straight, but I only earned like 100k. I had a few creatures out of Tim's before, and I could only get them 32 days with Tim eah with that 100k.

So, I just think that there could be more ways to gain ec? Maybe games, or awards, or gifts, or so on? Or we could at least get more than around 100 ec with every feed, maybe? What about 500 ec per fed creature? It would make feeding and Tim's a lot easier to maintain.

@thepells4
i agree totally!!😊 I have the exact same problem. I put ALL my ec in the strongroom so i can collect interest. There are only a few small coves i feed per day except for mine. i only get lik 5000 ec a day!!

@thepells4 I agree. Tim's is a EC dominator xD It costs so much. Glad level 2000's don't need it anymore, but still. I never have time to feed creatures cause it takes WAY too long on an iPod >.<

I find it easier to put my creature in for one day, once a week. 😃 They survive for the whole week, and you only spend about 10000 for a cove of 70.
You have to get on alot, though. 😋

Also, I find that a great idea! No arcade, though, that'll slow down the site, and I hate games every since neo. 😋

@thepells4 I agree ☹️ Tim robbed my strongroom.

I really like this idea. 😃 I'm feeding right now... >.<

@thepells4

Eh, I disagree 😋 I would like more things to spend on 😋

Well without any special thing to do I can earn about 30000 EC per day by just feeding my regular feeders and my babysitting coves TIP: Babysit coves 😊 but I agree maybe increase the amount of EC we earn per feed 😊

Smaller coves also help conserve EC...

People aren't just going to get rid of their eggs that they worked so hard for to conserve EC.

@swymr_krys

All my eggs are special to me, I'm not going to just downsize after all my time spent/eggs traded to get them..

i think feeding regularly is fine. 24 hours in a day, 30 days a month, 3 hours. seems like decent work for a full month.

Some of us can't sit for that long

I can only be on the computer for a few hours at a time, because of my ankle. If I sit too long it turns purple with orange splotches and starts to hurt


I think the increase of EC should be to 300

dionaea • 25 June 2011 at 5:41 PM

I usually just feed my creatures once every 3 days and put them at tim's for a day, they'll be fine when you come back and it saves a LOT of EC. I don't think feeding should bring in more EC, but maybe something else, like higher interests or games or something...

@victoria_egg_storage

I'm just pointing out that you're complaining about not being able to take care of all them. In the real world, if this happened, animal control would come take them away. Either buck up or give some away.

I'm not trying to be mean, I'm just trying to point out that if you're not willing to put in the time to take care of all of them, then they're not that special to you in the first place.

rosey77 • 26 June 2011 at 11:13 AM

I agree @i_icarlyrocks_55 !!!

decks123456 • 26 June 2011 at 11:25 AM

i think 3 hours a month is fine. how many hours are there in a month? about 720. just take 3 hours out of that. not much less. and you can split up the time. dont do it all at once.

or do what @dionaea does. it saves EC ALOT. i use it so i dont have to sit through 3 hours.

@swymr_krys

I'd just like to point out I have //help// on my real life animals. And taking a food bowl out, putting food in it, and then putting it back in their feeding area is way faster than sitting and feeding one egg at a time, one cove at a time.

And I'm taking fine care of my eggs right now, I'm just saying it would be more efficient to up to to 300 EC, because there are people who need help

And I'm not "complaining" I'm stating a fact. My doctor told me to not kept my foot below heart level for too long and I feed on the desktop, meaning it either has to hang or sit on my other leg - Which is both below heart level


And before you go and act like I'm a whiny little girl who's going "poor pitiful me" I have them all with Tim's, on both my accounts.



I was merely pointing out how some people can't be on the computer all day long feeding




And they are special to me, but my foot healing properly is more important to me than my eggs. I'm having to re-learn to walk, and if I put basically pixels over my body then I have something wrong with me.



@decks123456

OHH I miss understood you, my bad.


When you said 24 hours, I thought you meant you could feed them for 24 hours, because there is .. You get what I mean >_> I don't know if that's possible, but I thought you meant it XD

I wish we had this ☹️ I had so many niphas cause I was a nipha collector but I had to get ride of all of them just to conserve my ec since a lot of rare eggs were dieing from me trying to save all my niphas >.< I had like more then 30 niphas but some died and rest are going to die from me giving them away to newbies who gave up on ec
