If you're in the United States (or other places that observe daylight saving time), don't forget to spring ahead 1 hour today.
We have been aware of the regular downtime that we have had during the wee hours of the night Egg Cave Time during the last week or two. It has been an extremely difficult problem to diagnose in terms of the cause. Two days ago, we have made a few (more) changes to the web server's configuration that we are hoping is a permanent fix for the issue.
If things go offline again, rest assured that Egg Cave will most certainly be back! Our apologies, too, if it has interrupted anyone's feeding schedules (especially for those in Europe and elsewhere).
Dragold's Den and more fun returns soon! Stay tuned for more amazing Egg Cave updates. As always, we love you all.

@Ian Feeding not possible/very slow on mobile?
Ian • 11 Mar 2018, 8:24 PM
@foxbit right now?
Ian • 11 Mar 2018, 8:28 PM
@foxbit after checking server loads, I'm not experiencing any slow downs. Check internet connection? If you're very slow on mobile, it also could be your cell connection/tower.
foxbit • 11 Mar 2018, 8:59 PM
@Ian I think it's mostly slow internet connection from my tablet. Thanks for the reply!
Ian • 11 Mar 2018, 10:07 PM
@foxbit I see. No problem.
veritaspunk • 11 Mar 2018, 10:24 PM
@Ian @foxbit I'm not on mobile and just went through a decent size cove feeding in blazing speed/quickest ever... so all is well on my end of things right now 😊

Think the Sweetoth and Sidris can be removed from the CDWC now. xD
icecloud101 • 13 Mar 2018, 10:51 AM
I believe that the site crashed for me yesterday, but it started working again
icedmagma • 13 Mar 2018, 4:00 PM
Dragold's Den is up and running? Is this a glitch or did I miss a blog post?
icymuffin • 13 Mar 2018, 4:07 PM
@icedmagma No blog post as far as I've seen either, but it's running for me as well
sparklefox • 13 Mar 2018, 4:09 PM
@icedmagma - There's been no blog post as far as I've seen or have been notified about, but it's up and running for me too.
loved • 13 Mar 2018, 4:29 PM
@icedmagma I think it might be a glitch, Dragold’s Den usually opens on the 16th
kudo • 13 Mar 2018, 5:02 PM

icecloud101 • 13 Mar 2018, 5:28 PM

skyfall4 • 13 Mar 2018, 5:31 PM
I saw it too, then it's gone 😱 I believe it was accidental?
Ian • 13 Mar 2018, 11:17 PM
Sorry for the brief DD pop up! It doesn’t begin for another few days.
_piano_pokemon_ • 14 Mar 2018, 7:32 PM

icecloud101 • 15 Mar 2018, 4:06 PM

prairie • 15 Mar 2018, 4:08 PM

jeanne • 15 Mar 2018, 8:11 PM
