Rinkeby Authenticated Faucet is not working?

I need test ethereum for my pet project.

I go to https://faucet.rinkeby.io/ , put a link with my tweet with my Ethereum address in MetaMask, choose 3 Ethers / 8 hours.enter image description here

The request was accepted, but 17 hours past and I haven't my test ethers. enter image description here Did I something wrong or I must wait a little longer? And explanation me please, what exactly means 3 Ethers / 8 hours?

Solution

  • It's not working; it's down for a while (not sure when it's gonna come back up).

    "3 Ethers / 8 hours" means that you can only request 3 Ethers each 8 hours.

    You can get .001 ether here though: http://rinkeby-faucet.com/

    It's not much but still better than nothing. I think the cooldown is only 1 or 2 hours.

    If you want more than .001 faster they only block requests by IP, so ask a friend or something to open the link with your address and you'll get .001 more.
