Is the link broken? I can't go to the website, it simply gets stuck on connecting... |

Yeah on facebook their saying they have some server issues, they weren't expecting it to be hammered by so much people I guess, lol.
Creature 4 the game wrote: I can confirm that the server is sometimes on its knees. But the counter is isolated and even when it stops incrementing on-display, in the back office, we still see the numbers go up. Right now, it's at 348.000+ and counting here... |

Isolated data or no, I can't reach the site at all, it won't load at all...

Same here... I was nearly crying with excitement when I heard the news, and then I tried to load it... Then I cried for real.

I was still participating when the server decided to freeze on me and stopped updating the click total. I then tried to reload the page and it doesn't work.  |

i don't think you guys have to worry at the moment, the whole thing might be down. I haven't X out of it but the numbers have halted so something is wrong on their side, I'm sure it will be back up.
took a screen shot of numbers not moving

Oh. So its only a norn figurine to be won? Shame. If it had early access then I would be going wild for it.
EDIT: Why is it a click contest? People can easily cheat at that. ![[nblank] [nblank]](/images/smilies/emot_blank.gif) |

yeah it's just the figurine not sure if this is different from the ones they've given out prior though. |

I don't think you can cheat, as you can't register a click in a Flash object externally, so it should be pretty secure.

technically they could cheat with a bot if they wanted to but it would come up on their systems.
we sure have shocked them with how madly we're going at it. i can't feel the top of my arm anymore |

The total-click-count seems a little sluggish, but if I wait for a minute or two (clicking all the time!), it updates itself.

I'm guessing 1,000,000 is the sweet spot? Getting there, getting there... |

Update from Fishing Cactus via Twitter:
We've had to hit the reboot button again. Should be back up soon (hopefully) |

It took forever for the page to load for me, but I've been clicking like crazy! Interesting idea. I wonder what else will be inside the egg besides the chance to win a Norn figurine!

My finger hurts so much....
I'm not certain that I can get anything out of this since I don't have a Facebook account (and never will - I refuse to touch the place with a 25-foot pole), but I might as well help anyway.

I'm not sure if Facebook is required, Grendel Man. The terms and conditions only mention a mailing address in order to have a prize delivered. I only use Facebook for Creatures-related stuff... I'm with you about staying away from it whenever possible!

According to the rules of the contest, you don't need facebook.

Well, now the blurb at the bottom says "They're gonna get my precious!" (which made me laugh), and the click counter's over 850,000.
