@miomar What does she say? xD

plookle • 13 January 2011 at 10:46 PM

Is anyone else afraid that the asteroid will go away before we can get these eggs? That worries me.

Zac • 14 January 2011 at 12:10 AM

@plookle Im pretty sure the asteroid will be here for a long enough time, if not indefinitely.

No luck for me, unfortunately. I feel like the other eggs might not be available yet. I know that metroid had proposed different options for them but I don't know if they were implemented by Ian. I do enjoy that they are difficult to get, however. If they were easy, that would take all the fun out of it.

Also, I'm pretty sure it's random, though I ant prove it 100%, but that'd be cool if you guys got some aliens as a result of your planned asteroid ambush. 😋

The egg mysterious vanished right before your eyes... 12:55 AM, middle slot.

alraune3 • 14 January 2011 at 6:46 AM

Oh no! The egg mysterious vanished right before your eyes... 6:45 am, middle egg.

redfire77 • 14 January 2011 at 10:43 AM

remember everybody doing the asteroid dive! its today at 8: 30 pm ECT! choose any egg you want and post here what the results were! thanks everyone

icymuffin • 14 January 2011 at 4:51 PM

I'm afraid not everyone will get an asteriod egg if not all three.
Supposedly, Ian told someone that it won't stay here forever

nvr4evr1 • 14 January 2011 at 5:32 PM

Awhh I forgot about it, could we do it on Friday and on Saturday as well? 😃

icymuffin • 14 January 2011 at 5:41 PM

Maybe we should
It seems as if it only happens every other day...

thepells4 • 14 January 2011 at 6:01 PM

Yeah, I think so too.
Especially since I forgot about this entire thing and went to the asteroid at 1:00 a.m...

nvr4evr1 • 14 January 2011 at 6:49 PM

Haha so Saturday it is too? xD

What time is good for everyone?

icymuffin • 14 January 2011 at 7:07 PM

Well... We decided to do this at 8.30PM ECT, although... a lot of people do go on a little after 12AM ECT to steal after the reset
We should just stick wih 8.30PM so no one gets confuzzled :]

redfire77 • 14 January 2011 at 7:36 PM

Yeah, I agree with @icymuffin but also I think we should try it on Saturday too. At the same time again. OK everyone, click the middle egg at exactly 8:30 ect!!!!!

mellyottl • 14 January 2011 at 8:12 PM

[so in 19 minutes then?]

Orderedchaos • 14 January 2011 at 8:14 PM

@mellyottl Yup. 😊 *sits watching the EC clock*

icymuffin • 14 January 2011 at 8:21 PM

Should we post this in the blog?...

mellyottl • 14 January 2011 at 8:30 PM

[8:30:00, middle egg, Oh no! The egg instantly turned to dust as you approached it!]

thepells4 • 14 January 2011 at 8:31 PM

so... What'd you guys get at the dive? 😉

icymuffin • 14 January 2011 at 8:31 PM

Chose the right slot, nothing though
I couldn't help it 😋

redfire77 • 14 January 2011 at 8:44 PM

Nothing.... *is sad* oh well, lets try again tomorrow at the same time?
edit: i think we should try at 8:00 since maybe it should be on the hour, not 8: 30. is that ok with everyone?

icymuffin • 14 January 2011 at 10:30 PM

How about 12 AM? A looootttttt of people go around that time XD
But honestly, I don't really know if asteriod diving really going to help. I could be wrong though.
I still think it's every other day though :]

redfire77 • 14 January 2011 at 10:52 PM

I have another theory, actually. It doesn't make much sense, but what if if you are the #th person to try to steal an egg, then you make it. hypothetically, on Monday you would have to be the 67th person, but on Tuesday, you would have to be the 48th person. Just a thought.

alraune3 • 15 January 2011 at 5:27 AM

Oh no! The egg exploded as you approached it! 5:26 am, left egg.

pendulum • 15 January 2011 at 9:33 AM

@everyone

I can't add any more text to the post, so for now, just post your things here, even though it is super cluttered. ☹️

I didn't get anything Friday at 8: 30. Hm.

@miomar Your Storticai looks adorable. Congrats! 😊

redfire77 • 15 January 2011 at 1:04 PM

@icymuffin it wouldnt make sense to do it at 12:00 am becauase everybody tries at that time and it doesnt work

icymuffin • 15 January 2011 at 1:12 PM

@redfire77~ Why not? If a lot of people go a little after midnight, then it would speed up the number count, thus raising the chances that someone will get it during that hour

redfire77 • 15 January 2011 at 1:14 PM

@icymuffin maybe we should all do it on the hour, instead of a little after.

icymuffin • 15 January 2011 at 1:14 PM

But I still don't believe that diving will help other than the fact that many people are doing it at the same time.
Afterall, there was only one time when two people stole it on the same day, but they were far apart from each other. It seems after that, there was only one a day (that were reported)

redfire77 • 15 January 2011 at 3:26 PM

@icymuffin hmmmm, im out of theories. :/ i think the asteroid is just chance, like the mo.. but maybe theres a theory to the mo!! *brain whirrs, clicks beeps* //error: timeout exceeded//

icymuffin • 15 January 2011 at 5:22 PM

I think the Mo might be random
I'm not so sure about the asteriod being random though. It just seems like Ian is trying to say there is more to it than luck. He never answered my question though D:
