TBT's Ninth Annual Easter Egg Hunt

[Blueskyy]

No regrets though. I'm proud I went through with 14. TMNT!

 

[Miss Misty]

I'm glad everyone else's reaction to 14 was about the same as my reaction when I YOLO'd the board and it actually worked.

 

[Nefarious]

i got it but i honestly kept thinking like "imagine someone making a post like help i've been hacked and all my tbt and collectibles are stolen and getting a notif that says 'you found an egg!'"

This literally would be the staff:

 

[EerieCreatures]

I feel slightly better that all the ones I missed seem to also be the most missed of the eggs, some of those were really tricky and even when I was sort of in the right place, I was still pretty far off.
I really though egg 23 though was references some kind of past event celebrating things users had made, I completely went over that one. orz

 

[Insulaire]

How many other people simultaneously apologized to the mods for wasting their time in their thread for #14 in case they were wrong? Def my fave clue/win!

 

[Jhine7]

I still like my thinking for #8 more than the actual answer.

“Leaf with locked logs”. I went to The Airport and filtered all locked threads that had to do with Leif and searched every single one to no avail.

I'm happy to see how I got egg 6. I drunk clicked until I got that one.

Me I was like sorry but don't take my eggz!!!

 

[sleepydreepy]

ME TOO. Oh my gosh.

I also looked up every blue paw slipper and paw print doorplate in nook's cranny. Gosh, do I feel like a dummy.

bro I started doing that too then gave up, then today I decided to look at the last egg hunt’s clues vs answers and saw on one clue that they referenced a staff via the color of their name, and then saw that another clue was only accessible by searching for something specific in a general area and only one result came up...I put 2 and 2 together and somehow got that one?? Don’t ask me how but I felt so galaxy brain holy crap

 

[Nefarious]

@NefariousKing That #2 answer though it makes sense and I was sort of on the same wavelength?? I thought it was the reaction flourish I feel silly for not getting it but oh well!

I guessed Flourish too! Guessed literally everything but umbrella. It is what it is I suppose haha.

I was so sure I typed SANRIO because I tried different variations like SANRIOAMIIBO, AMIIBO, TARGET lol etc.

Also, I definitely tried posting a thread to contact staff but does it still prompt the egg if you didn’t enter text in all the fields? I did hit submit though. I was trying to avoid contacting staff unless necessary.

That was a pretty good guess. I went through the locked logs of the New Leaf subforum

Darn! Those are really clever omg but at least i got to yoink one more egg. Thanks for the fun event!! ^u^

ME TOO. Oh my gosh.

I did that too ahh
But then I thought “blues clues” could mean blue name aka mod so looked at mod posts until I found it

ME TOO UGHH WE WERE SO CLOSE! I thought I typed out every combo out there, even hello kitty etc

I found 18 eggs and my record across the last three egg hunts was 10, so I'm really happy with how I did! I'm so glad I got enough for the prismatic egg; it was a tough choice between that and the dragonscale egg (which would match my Sheldon avatar!) but I had to go with prismatic because I'm a sucker for anything rainbow and it's so pretty!

The ones I missed were 5, 8, 14, 16, 17, 20, and 25. I had a feeling 14 involved posting something but I definitely didn't want to test that theory (and it's a good thing I didn't because I was looking in the wrong place). :P

 

[Blueskyy]

Who else ran into @dizzy bone in searches and thought they'd have an egg in a post? or found stupid blue/black penguins in a signature and tried to click?

 

[Firesquids]

For egg 14 I just wrote a post saying I was looking for the egg and to ignore it if I was wrong.
It was so hard not telling others to just do it too!
Don't be so scared of the staff guys, they don't bite (Oblivia might...) lol

 

[~Kilza~]

Man, definitely painful to see the answers to the eggs I missed, especially when it feels like I would've gotten most of them if I was more thorough in my searching (maybe not 14 though, lmao)

That said, surely I'll learn from my mistakes and next year's egg hunt will be my year.

 

[Kirbyz]

we’re all looking pretty foolish now in the staff’s eyes for #14

they probably knew we’d all be scared to post in contact the staff, i kept thinking nah what if someone had an important issue they need taken care of and all of a sudden i send in “yo where’s my egg” thought i was boutta get all my eggs taken away and be in debt. lesson learned, trust staff, but don’t trust staff
