Ian is God, he can do anythingggggg

peppermintcowboy • 14 July 2011 at 12:20 PM

@victoria_the_wolf - I can see why! Everyone wants one of the old rares... it'd be nice to at least have a *chance* to get one. CoughCoughMummarEggForMeCough

@Victoria_the_wolf

He can't take creatures. It's not possible. How can he get the creatures and place them somewhere until someone wins it? He doesnt know people's passwords.

blackrose_chan • 14 July 2011 at 12:22 PM

@muppet (too lazy to fight back) what about lvls 2000? sometimes people get there eggs up to 2000 and when they leave to do business or gone somewhere else they take a break from eggcave but they know there eggs wont die so they don't have to take care of em. what would you say about that?

@victoria_the_wolf I HAVE BEEN PINGED! //fliesin
//readsthread
We did, didn't we! And I'm a lurker - surprised I didn't see that thread. XDD

@goku You've got the right idea, but so many people -will- be upset by the rarity issue. It's just how things work, it seems.

@muppet I like your addition to the idea! I am curious as to how that'd work out.

Deleted • 14 July 2011 at 12:23 PM

@chloekins


He should know the passwords o.o He's the maker of the site and should have them on file.


And I'm pretty sure if he can turn all his creatures to one of the popular species, he can transfer them :'P

Deleted • 14 July 2011 at 12:26 PM

I think the only way you can get creatures are they haven't been born. Like alien creatures. Sorry but I won't support this anyhow. I might just stalk ideas until I see something I like and will support it. Sorry.


@Victoria_the_wolf

He doesn't know passwords. I asked him once because I was bored. He said he doesn't know passwords.

peppermintcowboy • 14 July 2011 at 12:26 PM

I don't like the idea of redistributing creatures from dying coves. It'll just cause tons of 'ownership drama' if the first person ever returns to Egg Cave.

Much better to just have a Luck Chamber/Egg Cave Genie/whatever that occasionally hands out a never-before-owned drama-free egg. 😊

Deleted • 14 July 2011 at 12:30 PM

I don't think that the new rare eggs from a different place would be "drama free" because what if you got a... Onny for it? People would crowed you, ask for it, beg, trade, and say you cheated because it's a different date. This had happened to a user before and she will always be history here. So I truly don't know:/

peppermintcowboy • 14 July 2011 at 12:33 PM

@chloekins - Really? Jee, I think once people got use to it being an on-site feature, available to everyone equally, they'd pretty much just start treating it like the asteroid. 😊

Deleted • 14 July 2011 at 12:35 PM

@peppermintcowboy

Hehe. Trust me, not everyone is used to not cheating on the asteriod yet. I've been called a cheater once for getting a paret a month after I got a stortici.

Deleted • 14 July 2011 at 12:36 PM

@chloekins

Is it even possible to cheat on the asteroid? o_o

Deleted • 14 July 2011 at 12:39 PM

@Victoria_the_wolf

I don't think so.... Oh wait, side accounts!

peppermintcowboy • 14 July 2011 at 12:41 PM

@chloekins - Yeah, but you can't design a website like this around what a few whiny immature jealous people are going to say. 95% of Egg Cave knows that the asteroid is random. To heck with the other 5% that can't just congratulate you. 😋

So I *still* think this is a great feature idea... and would give a lot of hope, and fun, and joy to the majority of Egg Cave members. you know, the reasonable people.

leopardclaws • 14 July 2011 at 12:41 PM

I love this idea

Deleted • 14 July 2011 at 12:44 PM

@peppermintcowboy

Maybe 20% whiny. Two were 1+ year old. The rest were like 1-6 months.

shelby • 14 July 2011 at 1:06 PM

It's a nice idea, but I don't know.
If you look at the bigger picture, over time, EggCave would be filled with all those creatures and they would no longer be rare. Yeah I understand the 1/800 chance of getting it, but if you look at it over-all, over a period of time, people would figure it out and then get a ton of them. Eventually, they wouldn't be rare anymore and the people that traded theirs away when they were rare would feel slighted.

Rather than a Luck Place, maybe on a special occasion, like EggCave's anniversary, Ian could re-release the creatures into the caves, but only for that day.

crooton1 • 14 July 2011 at 1:08 PM

@Shelby

Possibly only one per person, avaliable in the CS shop for 30 minutes each?

shelby • 14 July 2011 at 1:11 PM

@crooton1;
That's not a bad idea.
Another thought would be that on a certain day, they are available but you can only get one. You go to the place to get it for free.
EX: You know how if you find all the eggs for easter events? Then you can go claim your prize?
Something along those lines would be a good idea too.

crooton1 • 14 July 2011 at 1:12 PM

@Shelby

*High-five*

Deleted • 14 July 2011 at 1:15 PM

Go shelby!

peppermintcowboy • 14 July 2011 at 1:28 PM

@crooton1 - The 30 minutes each isn't a very good idea... what about time zone differences for members? Lots of people won't stand a chance. ☹️

@shelby - But the Easter egg hunt was easy - with the cheat sheet that popped up almost instantly, I 'solved' the whole thing in under five minutes. And look how common Bewegs are. They're hardly valuable.

Maybe I just didn't understand what you meant.

muppet • 14 July 2011 at 1:43 PM

@blackrose_chan
I just got back online, the level 2000+ thing just was introduced on June 23. It's only July 14, so I'm pretty sure that none of the users that have abandoned their coves 6+ months ago even think any of their pets are still alive & that they can come back & have them, mute point.
Besides that @peppermintcowboy quit eggcave a while back but she at least did it the right way. She adopted out all of her creatures even to the last common that was traded to her😃 When she came back she didn't think she would get them back or maybe only 1 or 2 but *almost* all of us gave them back & not because she bugged us either! She told us all no we didn't have to & we should keep them, she came back & expected to have to start over. So if they quit or up & abandoned their creatures till they were at 0% for 5+ months, then were sent a warning e-mail that they had to log in once & feed their cove or they would lose them, & they still stayed away or ignored it then that would be their own fault😋 @Ian can change or adjust the rules as he sees fit anyway without even warning anyone (see Terms of Service link on very bottom of page) even though he usually does😃 every time you log in to eggcave you are agreeing to the Terms of Service whether you read it or not.

blackrose_chan • 14 July 2011 at 1:47 PM

@muppet I quit ☹️ nobody ever cared for my eggs. I just remembered why I quit though(and I meant lvls 2000 if this thing does comes out >.<) my bro wouldn't let me on the computer since I didn't have internet ☹️ oh and my eggs weren't junk they were when florns and treelars came out. some people even unfriended me ☹️ people are just so rude.

peppermintcowboy • 14 July 2011 at 1:56 PM

@muppet - Off topic, but I just want to say how AMAZED I was by the generosity of so many Egg Cavers! Yeah, when I returned to the site I sincerely expected to just start back at nothing and work hard all over again. I gave away everything fair and square, so it seemed only right. That so many people started cramming my cove full of all my old rares was so moving! 😱 It was completely unexpected! I'll never forget how much that meant to me...

😊


Okay... and now back to the topic at hand... 😋

muppet • 14 July 2011 at 1:59 PM

@blackrose_chan I'm sorry to hear that☹️ but how long were u gone? If it was over 6 months then, when you came back did you expect to have all of your creatures? or did u think that they would be gone & u would have to start over?

as per the level 2000+ debate again @Ian just made that so also if you look back to the blog from June 23rd till now you will see that @Ian had it that Tim's would no longer accept level 2000+ creatures anymore, then the majority of eggcave with level 2000+'s said they wanted to be able to have them in Tim's so he switched it back to they still couldn't die but they could be put back into Tim's. So truly this is probaly going to be a majority rules type of thing & a what @Ian thinks is fair & wants to do.

blackrose_chan • 14 July 2011 at 2:05 PM

@muppet I forgot the sites name lol thats how long I was gone(but I do forget easily) I was scouting for this site everywhere but I did come back if I recall on september/october around there and I left I think after christmas but before valentines so I think that is about 9 months wow well shame too man ☹️ and then most of my eggs were still dieing even checking on them about every month or so(ran out of ec as well) sigh still no body cared to help take care of em ☹️

muppet • 14 July 2011 at 2:08 PM

@peppermintcowboy its cuz we luv you & you were sorely missed 😃 besides Squeaky the Balrog would've started fighting with my Balrogs to try to get sent back anyways😋

@blackrose_chan that's a shame that no-one was feeding your babies😃 I myself try to make sure I have 2 small ones on my profile & a few more on a list in my cove of dying or in trouble coves that need feeds☹️ too bad I didn't see your old cove☹️

blackrose_chan • 14 July 2011 at 2:12 PM

@muppet lol yeah ☹️ TT_TT I missed my balrog and wisnaker and especially my florn TT_TT sobs well anyways good thing Ian might make the reincarnation store soon(maybe) 😃 but it will only revive what died when shop will come out
