Flash Contest to Hatch my Spongosaur May 9th - Update: Last prize drawn

snowywinter • 9 May 2026 at 12:15 AM

If we hatch...

today (May 9th), then I will give away 200k EC.

A winner will be chosen at random from all who post to this thread.
One entry per person, (but sides are allowed to help reach the goal.)

To keep things simple for myself, your entry number is the order in which you post.

Only 49 more clicks are needed. But don't worry if we don't hatch her today. I'll give away a consolation prize of 100k ec.
No entries after 11:55 PM ECT will be counted or after she hatches, whichever comes first.
(If any one notices she hatches, please post so on the thread, I'm usually asleep mid-day Eggcave time.)

(Winner will need to set up a trade of random item so that I can send you the ec, which I'll return the item.)

Please allow me a day or two of grace to announce the winter/finish trade.

feel free to ping people who many be interested. I'm too shy.

Addendum #1 - I will be using random.org to select the winner.

Addendum #2 - 10:45am
I am adding four travels as participation prizes. (recipients of these will also be chosen using random.org, 1 per player, all are valued under 10k ec.)

Addendum #3 - Since hatch wasn't achieved on the desired May 9th, an additional prize of 50k ec will be given away if hatched on May 10th. (Prizes will be given away regardless for participation on the 9th.)


as of 9:37am (I don't feel like making a seperate post, just woke up, she only needs 10 more clicks! : D )

Fed! ❤️

Thank you everyone who clicked and fed today, I truly appreciate it. sadly I timed out my pleading wrong and I think with less than two hours left hatching on 9th of May isn't going to happen.

I got almost no sleep, so I'm going to draw a winner after I accomplish some and my brain is back to doing brain stuff.

Until then, I decided I'm going to add another consolation prize. If we hatch Magyar on the 10th, I'll draw a 50k ec winner in addition to the 100k prize for tonight. (Unless by some miracle she's hatched tonight... then the 50k prize is null & void. cuz, hello, 200k is better 😃)

jarsha • 9 May 2026 at 10:31 PM

Cut off for the May 9th prizes is here, but let's keep the momentum going : ) almost there!

Only 22 more clicks needed (according to the Archives page.)

Edit: Going to try getting some sleep soon. Thank you again to all who have helped - even those not posting in the thread. I see and appreciate you : )

(A little excited to hand out the travels later. I was able to snag some of my low-key favorites from the shop. kept seeing them in my inventory and grinning. like "hatch already so I can hand these out!" lol. Then I was like self, they probably want the pretend monies. lol.)

Good night/day to you all. Happy clicking! ^^

chaotictreat • 10 May 2026 at 12:11 AM

clicked+fed today too, so close!

stormwarden • 10 May 2026 at 1:02 AM

fed ❤️ hope this baby hatches soon!!

gngdia • 10 May 2026 at 8:55 AM

Fed the hungry Hungary
Edit: I also fed from my sides & clicked while I was not logged in any acc from my mobile data & wifi to help her evolve faster

vanilla • 10 May 2026 at 9:13 AM

fed again, so close to hatching!!

snowywinter • 10 May 2026 at 11:48 AM

Only 10 more clicks to go for hatch as of 9 something this morning (and still sitting there at 11:25. Now 11:40.)

Doing the drawing for May 9th's prizes
@vanilla - Winner of the 100k ec ... please set up the trade so I can transfer your ec : )
@minervaandmars - Sparkling Fall Lights / Got the notice your inventory is full when I tried to send it.
@heatherm19 - Birch Shadows
@sartre - Still Green Forest
@stormwarden - Peaceful Autumn View

Wow, it didn't repeat results even once today. 😃 (Usually when I use Random I gotta re-roll at lease twice for a smaller number of prizes with larger pools of participants.)

@gngdia
: ) I see what you did there ; ) I love punny wordplay!
I considered doing the same yesterday if it had been closer to hatching then. kept looking over to the side at my other tablet, and considered getting our emergancy back up phone/internet out. lol. The extra effort is much appreciated. going to send you a little something in Thanks. (no idea what yet.)

To all: The spongo may not have got there when I wanted, but we haven't given up, and that's what matters. (and it's so appropriately symbolic of perseverence, that I'm getting all teary-eyed right now.)

And to those recognizing the holiday, Happy Mother's Day... be it that you have your own child, have taken in others, look after them, have fur/scale/feather ones, or just have a major nuturing streak at the core of your personality. ♡

Thank you! I've made room in my inventory now. 😊

gngdia • 10 May 2026 at 1:08 PM

thank you @snowywinter 😊 glad the little dino cake will hatch soon

snowywinter • 10 May 2026 at 6:10 PM

I gave Magyarorszag the hatching click at 6:04 PM ECT (just after an anon feeder got her to 149 clicks,) no entries will count after this.

I will wait until tomorrw to draw winners in case anyone who fed wants to come forward, review the list of entries, etc.

Thank you everyone so much! ♡
