I also like @sinthir's idea. Pop up is better than taking you to a different page, but no pop up would be even better.

I'm still hoping that they'll change it back 😊

Just a personal gripe here... (mostly grumbling to self) and now people are even less likely to play my Gobbler game. Heck, it's even inconvenient for me to play it now. (I'm still on the hunt for them there, but not as often.)

@ian @orderechaos any update on this? We'd still like a change. @sinthir's idea could be cool. No popup or redirect. The gobbler just disappears and you get a +1. If it's possible. Thanks.

I have zero control over anything coding wise on this site. I just pass along what information I have.

As of right now it looks like Ian is looking into another option that doesn't bring back the original error.

@Orderedchaos Thank you for giving us an update! Very much appreciated! ❤️

...and gratitude to Ian for hearing us out. (My being misty-eyed may be due to my emotions being a mess the past few days... but it does mean a LOT that he's still so involved with the site.)

Lol looks like I'm in the minority since I don't mind the bug fix.

For those who do mind: if you're on desktop you can press Ctrl when clicking the gobbler to open the redirection in a new tab. Then you can just mass close all the "You found a gobbler" tabs once you feel like it and have minimal interference with the rest of your eggcave activities.
