Welcome back! 😃 Always good to see old users coming back. 😸
The last four years have been cool. 😃 Though to be honest I forgot the most of the smaller/kinda important stuff that happened. 😋
But here are a few things I do know happened. :L
- Eggcave V3 is here
- Last Year during December, EC did a re-release of all the CC pets from that year (not including 200cc pets, only 500cc ones) IDK if this will happen again this year's December, but it might be a better idea to not offer a ton for any retired CC pets from 2018 unless you really want one before Dec 2018.
- 2017 and 2018 have had alot of user suggestions made, so that is really neat. :L
- there are Creature Description Writing Competitions (they came out in 2015), which allows players to write descriptions for creatures without one. If their description gets picked, the user gets the first of the species! 😃

Ahh! I love user suggestions! Gets me wanting to draw again! Can you tell me anything about the click exchange and what the number of XC is? Also do you know how to enter these description competitions? Looks like EC has made a lot of wonderful improvements since I've been gone!

@shann901

XC is simply the currency of the click exchange. For each user's creature you click, you gain one from them; for each creature of yours another user clicks, your amount is reduced by one

And I believe as long as if you have enough forum posts, you can enter into the competition by writing a description. The staff judge the descriptions and select the winner. The rules are here: https://eggcave.com/cdwc/rules
There is one still open right now, you might be able to make it if you'd like to try

Ahhh, yes, user suggestions are lovely~ It seems that a few creatures are created that way nowadays. Worth giving it a try :>

Thanks @icymuffin! I only have 80 posts or so, so I'll need to go out and talk to some people in order to make the contest! I'll also have to look into the click exchange. It's kinda cool that Ian is helping us get some of those clicks!! Haha
