I'm in the UK and I am seeing the same as quoted above. Oh, and I'm using Firefox and I clear my cache, history & cookies at the end of each day. So this was with a clean load of the site.

 

I use Firefox and have set it up to clear my cache, history and cookies as well so the same thing goes for me. I'm from Finland.

I can enter the site from the Netherlands on Firefox without a problem, but when I try to add my dragons I get the message:

The information in the previous table was outdated. Please resubmit your scroll name to update it.

 

I've tried to do that a few times and I keep getting the same message...

Same thing here. I'm in the US using Chrome on Windows 10.

 

EDIT: Okay I just tried something different and it worked!

Down at the bottom of your dragon list is a little check box that says 

 Update dragon details? (Not recommended if Dragon Cave is lagging.)

I checked that this time before clicking submit, and it appears to have done the trick. It now says Your changes have been saved!

I'm still not sure the site is working right, though. There are huge numbers of adults in with the hatchlings and hatchlings in with the eggs!

I'm finally on the site and getting the same "The information in the previous table was outdated. Please resubmit your scroll name to update it." message. I suppose finally not having a 404 is progress though.

 

Edit: Now back to a 404 when I tried to open it up in another tab. Leaving the successful tab open to give eggs and hatchies views.

Edit of Edit: Now back to the site and can update with the trick above. Site's probably still a little unstable or something.

See my edit above.

But the site still doesn't seem to be working quite right.

I just tried adding my scroll now and it worked. But I was getting the 404  few minutes ago

[Soulsborne]

Tried it just a minute ago (after it didn't work for me last night) and it worked fine without any lag etc.

I'm from Germany and using firefox (if that helps?)

[Blueeyes713]

I've noticed the daycare page is up but when I click on the main page I get the 404. If you need to put eggs on using purplehaze's trick (see posts above) to get around that update error or wanna give some eggs views, going directly to the daycare page is probably your best bet right now.

I bet the owner of the site is working on it right now. I think just wait a little and it will work properly again! :)

(iMO it is da best DC fansite so it not working properly is felt badly!)

Thank you, it did the trick for me too. Not sure if my eggs will gain views, though.

Oh, this worked! Thanks for the tip, Purplehaze!

The one egg that I put on this site and no other does seem to be gaining views quite nicely, so it seems the site is working. Also the excess adults seem to be clearing out. So whatever was going on seems to have been resolved.

I can't add my scroll now, it keeps coming back as "outdated" and none of them are being added.

Did you see my post above? Check the little box at the bottom of the page where it says update dragon details.

Thank you! That worked for me, too, after several rounds of the "outdated" error message. 

[Nagapie]

Got it working now! I noticed I could access the site just fine with my phone so I got suspicious and restarted Firefox. That seemed to do the trick. Still had the outdated error message at first like many others when I tried to update my dragons, but ticking the update dragon details box fixed it for me too.

[Belisar]

I had to use the   "Update dragon details? (Not recommended if Dragon Cave is lagging.)" trick too in order to add my dragons. Without, I only got errors

Thank you, I'll try that.

Same here, got the error

The information in the previous table was outdated. Please resubmit your scroll name to update it.

and came here to check on it. With checking the update dragon details box it worked But something must be wrong as I never had to do that before or got that error before.

Just heard back from bbik: hold fast; it was a host issue of major proportions:

Looks like my email might be working again, maybe?  I saw this email from the web host last night, sent at 6:25pm EST, and when I tried to notify you I realized just how big the outage was, since it took the email down too, and the forum they usually use for updates!:

We are experiencing a major outage across all services at this time. We are aware of the issue and are working to restore services as quickly as possible.

We will provide more detail when we can, however, we are focused on restoring services and diverting all energy to those tasks presently.

They sent another rather lengthy email at 8:08am, summarized as 'they're still working on it; there was a "perfect storm" of minor issues that altogether made a huge mess of their entire system, and they're pulling a (massive) copy of everything from their emergency backup systems to get websites back online.'  It doesn't look like they have an estimate for full completion yet, but I'm going to guess that it's all part of why there are still weird quirks with AoND, and with it being a backup, probably also why there are too many adults.  I'll take a look at cleaning up whatever's still wrong once I get the all-clear and have a minute to see what the state is.

Just manage as best you can for now; bbik is now aware and working on it.

[HeatherMarie]

Wow, that does sound major! Glad it didn't do more damage then just taking the site down for a bit.

Thanks Fuzz!

[animatedrose]

Glad to hear it's mostly working again. Hopefully bbik can fix the rest soon. It sucks to hear all of that happened! Good luck, bbik!

Glad to hear this, hopefully bbik won't have a lot of things to go in and repair.

Looks like the lagmonster tried to eat it.  As always, it will be defeated.
