TBT's Ninth Annual Easter Egg Hunt

glad to finally see the reveals and find out where those last clues were :3 this was a very fun even! thanks mods
 
The three I missed:
14- I actually almost got this egg, but the description of the forum says "Please only use this form if you cannot post publicly in Bell Tree HQ about your issue", and posting for an egg didn't seem to fall under that, so I was scared of bothering the staff and/or getting in trouble.
16- I never would have gotten this one. I was too focused on looking up things related to owls and the parliament part. I kept searching for terms similar to parliament. Also, I didn't know a group of owls were called a parliament. If only it had been a clue about crows and mentioned murder instead.
17- Honestly, I'm kind of surprised that I didn't think of entering moderator usernames given the fact that I tried similar things such as searching for threads by users who had the word "blue" in their username.
 
Okay, it's time for me to give my opinion on every egg now, let's go!:

#1: Obviously easy.

#2: Oh my, why did I not think of Umbrella. I mean, I did have it on my mind countless times, I just didn't add it in because it's not wearable on your body as I was looking up stylish spin on Google, and when I did I was like "Oh okay, so it involves clothes.". Another thing is that I forgot that you could spin umbrellas. If I remembered you could do that I would have easily gotten it.

#3: Yeah, it was obvious in my mind. The thread was a bit tricky to find.

#4: It took a while to find this. I kid you not, I was on the official TBT Discord and was like "Wait, channels? Oh I have an idea!" and found it. I just wonder why you didn't put the egg INSIDE of Discord?

#5: Yeah, I figured out this egg's location without doing math. No kidding... I was in that thread and was like, in that exact post to the egg "I wonder if there will be an egg hiding there". I was right.

#6: Easy find. Just like with #4, I don't understand why you didn't leave the link in while having Zipper T. Bunny donate with a message saying: "You Found an Egg" or something with his rhyming. But I guess an egg will do.

#7: It took a while to find this one. At first I thought it was referring to the lack of update content.

#8: I knew to look in the Blog Tree Archives sub-forum, what I didn't know until two days later was that I had to click the mark read button, instead I opted to look in the very last post of the very last page on every forum like everyone else. I did get the egg, however.

#9: Of course I knew to look there.

#10: Wasn't too hard to figure out,

#11: It was a hard one, but when I saw the vitamins thread I was like "Yes, there's gotta be one in there" And it was!

#12: At first, I thought it was referring to Camerupt. So after looking in the Pokemon Center thread I was like "That's silly to look in there" And proceeded to look in the Museum thread, so there it was.

#13: Like #1, obviously easy.

#14: It took about until night time around Easter to figure this one out. It was a cleverly made egg. When I posted my thread there I made the title "So, Phil, is it?" and the op message as "That's Phil's Yes." Little DQ reference there, I couldn't resist doing it.

#15: Very easy to figure out.

#16: I didn't know a parliament is called a group of owls, I found it the hard way, but it's a long story. But the endless pages got me to where I needed to go. Didn't you already made a book related egg, though?

#17: Sheesh, I had a troubling so with this egg. I looked in Nook's Cranny Board, couldn't find anything, then I searched Blue's Clues, nothing, and lot's of other wild attempts to find it to no avail. If I sticked to looking in the Nook's Cranny board and looked for a blue colored username (The hard way of course) I would have found it easily, but my mind didn't want to go that route and go extreme on it.

#18: I would have figured this out WAY earlier, but chose not to? I did figure it out a few hours ago...

#19: I kid you not, my mind did NOT think to look in the Dodo Code Queue thread and instead did what the clue answer was told to do. Yes, I did find it.

#20: I did look in the Able Sisters board and found nothing, then I thought of The Origami King and nothing. Then Bowser's Fury and nothing. Until I remembered faceboards, and easily found it.

#21: I knew where to look in the correct thread, it's just that there was no egg picture inside of it, until I clicked on the Goose Villager Egg and got it.

#22: Wowie, I would have never looked in there. I was looking inside the TBT Fair sheep voting thing, was going a bit insane on why the sheep voting stuff was nowhere to be found.

#23: Of course, besides 64 people, who could have remembered Museum Day? We were all looking inside the Museum Board and instead of finding eggs, we found a waste of time.

#24: Same with #18. I will say I knew it had to do with collectibles. Collectibles was my first guess, then I went with Lineup as the next.

#25: Very easily find for me. Possibly my favorite egg just for this sentence when you find it: "Yup, you found one!". Comedy gold!

This was a very easy and fun event, you have no idea how much I love these Easter Egg hunts. (Unlike others. SMH...) Maybe one day I'll grab the Golden Egg, but why would I? the regular eggs always look better than that.

Thanks for hosting such a wonderful event. Big props to all staff and Zipper.

I did the same with 17. Searched every person with blue in their name. Whoops I guess.

Stamps was finally what made me think of Museum Day for 23. I was searching old Fair thread high and low before that.
 
#14) I visited the Contact the Staff board numerous times but didn't think to actually make a thread in there.

#25) Oh my god. I visited that page like four times but didn't notice the small text at the bottom. Oof.

Oh well, I got 23 out of 25. Close enough.

Thanks for the egg hunt, it was fun as always.

Congratulations to Blink. on the Golden Easter Egg.

Not that I have one but I'm just curious as to what you'd offer? πŸ‘€

They go for 4k tbt.
 
Here to weigh in on a few of my silly shortcomings while facepalming with the rest of you!
@Blueskyy I'm so sorry for piling on but Gettysburg Geggysburg has me in stitches πŸ˜‚

#5- I COMPLETELY overthought this one. I was thinking hex shades and LOOKING FOR ANYTHING RELATING TO THIS COLOUR #ABBBAD
Took a look at the staff list for #ABBBAD. Looked at potential #ABBBAD-shaded eggs (containment units??) in staff lineups, looked in various threads for potential staff #ABBBAD. Nope, nope. πŸ€¦β€β™‚οΈ

#14- Looked up Donatello and my brain interpreted vaulting pole. I was looking EVERYWHERE through posts on how to acquire a vaulting pole from old March 2020 threads. Oof.
Never did I ever think about CTS, ever.

#8- I WAS LEAFING THROUGH THE BLOG TREE BUT NEVER DID EXACTLY THAT
and after that the words started blurring. The plain may falls rainly in the Spain, the logs leafed boldly. Am I looking for bolded posts? There weren't any there, so wandered through locked + bold NH island logs for good measure.

SOMEHOW I found #25 while looking around for #5...or maybe it was #8. Silliest find for me πŸ˜‚

All in all, that was a ride for my first egg hunt! Well done, everyone, and I'll enjoy the technicolour Zipper trees while they're still here 🐰

I don’t think I still understand how I drunk clicked on number 6 two days ago. Maybe I should not drink. Unless it is hot chai tea.

Edit: Nevermind I get it haha

literally no one asked but i’m gonna jump on the bandwagon and share a few thoughts about each egg. 🀠

#1, #3, #9, #10, #13, #18, #21, #24
these were the easiest for me and i was able to solve them all almost immediately.

#2
i genuinely was not expecting the answer to actually be β€œumbrella”. had myself a bit of a giggle over this one. xD

#4
this one stumped me a bit at first as i honestly thought it was somewhere in the basement or in the β€œbasement dwellers” thread. πŸ˜­πŸ˜‚

#5
my knowledge of the fact that hatching eggs go into an incubator is the only thing that helped me with this one - i knew it was somewhere in the β€œquick, before the mods hatch!” thread but it still took a bit to find lol.

#6
this one frustrated the hell out of me because i thought it was somewhere in brewster’s cafe and i kept checking the β€œhow do you like your coffee?” threads until i scrolled down, saw β€œko-fi” and promptly burst into tears LOL.

#7
i kept checking the new horizons first-year anniversary threads. 😭 my fault for overlooking the β€œadieu” part lol.

#8
the blog tree was honestly my first and only thought when i saw the clue for this one but i wasn’t expecting it to actually be there lol. it sucked watching so many people struggle with this one and not being able to say anything. :(

#11
i embarrassingly had to google β€œzinc” just to make sure i actually knew what it was but after i did, i found this one quickly.

#12
i,, honestly would’ve never figured that out lol. i kept thinking it had something to do with saharah and after that failed, i fell down a β€œage of empire” rabbit hole. πŸ’€

#14
i would like to drop kick this one.

#15
i genuinely was not expecting β€œhalloweaster” to be the answer LMAO.

#16
my first thought with this one: β€œit can’t be in brewster’s cafe because pigeons don’t hoot, they coo.” πŸ’€

#17
i knew this one was somewhere in nook’s cranny but i never would’ve checked @pandapples’ thread aha.

#19
this one stepped on my neck so bad LMAO. i knew it had something to do with the dodo code queue but i kept checking the announcement thread for it and the β€œhow to use it” thread lol. finding this one was a relief.

#20
i thought this one was referencing wix. πŸ˜”

#22
i. i kept searching for the β€œcounting sheep” polls from the 2020 tbt fair because i knew it was referencing that but once that failed, i started stalking the vesta collectible and when that failed, i even checked the sheep plush. πŸ’€ scrolling down and putting 2 and 2 together when i saw the sanrio poll was both satisfying and a punch to the gut lol.

#23
i have no idea how i figured this out but once i saw the museum subforum’s description, it sort of all fell into place for me aha.

#25
me, scrolling down the smilies page: haha there’s no way in hell there’s an egg in he-
the bottom of the page: yup, you found one!
 
Thank you everyone for spending your Easter weekend with us! I hope you enjoyed this year's egg hunt. 🐰

I literally stalked @Vrisnem 's posts in the post what you look like thread thinking one of their pics would give me an egg for egg 25. I'm so dumb. Also I failed at number 8

I did in spite complaining here a few times πŸ˜ŠπŸ˜…; sorry. Thank you and the rest of the staff for your hard work (and for staying up late if any of you needed to). I hope you enjoyed it too. 😊
 
Just wanted to say that I really enjoyed this event, I love puzzles and problem solving so I thoroughly enjoyed this event despite its difficulty. Thank you so much to the staff for all of the effort that they have put into it, the eggs, banner artwork, clues/puzzles, and egg decorating have all been a blast. I hope to do better next hunt but I am very pleased with how I went with limited time to go onto the forums. Thanks again and thank you to everyone else who participated for making amazing eggs and sharing the confusion in the comments.
 
Wtf I was like in all the threads... especially the reading thread was my first guess just didn't see the egg same with the time travel eggs *cries in blind*

But thank you for the amazing event! I enjoyed it a lot :)
