I find it funny that this all happened on my 13th birthday. xD

And malaman, that is awesome.

Double Ditto. I know the site was messed up, but how? All I know of was the restocks.

Wouldn't it be fun to be able to have something on a lookup or petpage saying "I survived the 7/24/04 glitch"? But even though it would be all in fun, I doubt it would go over real well. Using an "I abused the glitch and I'm still here", well, that's just asking for some extra attention, don't you think? ;)

Glitches - yes the restock, though I'm not sure that is/was a true glitch. I'm of the opinion that the constant restocks were either a programming error (like in timing) or deliberate because things were being tested out. I prefer the second one.

Other glitches, hmm, let's see, avatars, neohtml, stocks, auctions, petpets and I think main shops all went missing for awhile (that was fun watching people freak out :D ), at some point there was a glitch where people could go to tombola, the omelette and kiosk and keep going back over and over, getting stuff from tombola, extra omelettes and buying multiple scratchcards. Some people DID find out and take advantage of those. Very bad thing to do! I wasn't on the site during that one and I did no dailies yesterday once I found out about those (thank you PPT'ers! <3 ).

And for a while the shops were stocking amazing rare items but no one could buy anything. The restockers were going through a form of severe torture. That didn't last too long though, so they were saved before tearing all their hair out.

There was apparently something with the Igloo Sale, but I never saw that one or had it explained what exactly happened there. I think that's all. And it looks like things are pretty much back to normal? The staff must be cross-eyed from exhaustion. I do not envy them those programming jobs!

My personal one would be:

"I was away in a different country when the glitch of 7/24 occurred"

I doubt they'll get in trouble for it, it's not breaking any rules, and I can't think of any possible rule TNT could make up to justify icing them or whatever. =o
I want one that says
"I survived the glitch on 24/7/04
But my shop wasn't so lucky"

For me it's:

"I was in a Kibutz far from home with no computer when the glitch of 7/24 occurred, and returned only a day after it."

Sun Jul 25, 2004 10:51 pm

Mine would be the "I STOCKED UP ENDLESSLY ON OMELETTES ON 7/24 AND I'M STILL HERE!" Eh heh heh. 0:) I would have played tombolia but I can't even play it on normal days due to my messed up Norton anti-virus.

Getting a freebie more than once a day is clearly against the rules and is posted just about everywhere on the site.

And, my guess is that they will get in trouble for it. I seem to remember around Christmas time that there was a glitch where you could visit one of the freebies--I think it was the fruit machine--repeatedly. Everyone that did so was frozen and I seem to recall something in the news to that affect--that those who were frozen should have known better.
