The Lagmonster

The Lagmonster 'attack' was a period that occured around St. Patrick's Day, 2009. During Lagmonster attacks, the cave experiences extreme lag, often going down completely. Many users were unable to use the site for almost three weeks time. This resulted in many egg deaths, as users could not ensure their dragons were getting enough views. Even though TJ09 added time to all dragons, this was not enough to help some. After the site came back online, cave drops and breeding were disabled for a while.

In reality, this problem was caused by server issues, prompting TJ09 to change to another server. However, people jokingly said it was a creature called a 'Lagmonster' doing it. When the site came online, TJ posted this picture:

Since then, sprites of the Lagmonster have been created, and people have asked it to be added to the cave. It is unsure if, or when, this will happen, although it should be noted that the Lagmonster has been taken off the Completed List, possibly pending release.
