I can't even do round 3 at all. I may have to wait until tomorrow...

Darn it, I thought I was getting better....
 
I can say this much. Even though I can only find five so far, this year’s clues are no worse than last year’s clues or the clues from the year before. Even Clue #8 from this year isn’t as bad as Clue #8 from last year.

I disagree. 2017 was way easier than this imo

This is my first Easter Egg Hunt since I missed last year's due to the flu and I was so looking forward to it. Now I'm just sitting here mentally thanking Jeremy & The Staff for deciding to host an Egg Decorating Contest this year because I cannot for the life of me figure out the clues. I've even looked at last year's clues & answers - didn't help. I've honestly never felt so utterly stupid in all of my 40+ years and I've done some idiotic things in my life. I felt especially stupid after thinking I had figured out two different clues and going to where I thought the eggs would be and finding eggs in other members signatures which I clicked on only to have nothing happen. I asked in here about them and I found out they were hoaxes, meant to trick other members, based on something from last year's hunt. Sigh. I've managed to find one egg - just one - which I'm thinking I was only able to find because it may be the easiest clue to figure out so far.

It's my fault really. I usually only go into TBT Marketplace, the Amiibo Card Post Office & Re-Tail. Every so often I go into the Museum Shop but I don't really go to any of the other boards because I always feel like I don't belong or I'm not looking to adopt villagers. Hm... now that I'm thinking about it I guess I don't even go into Marketplace, Post Office or Re-Tail often enough for any of the clues to make any sort of sense. I don't know why I thought I should try this. All I've done is reiterate to myself that I'm out of place here.
 
just saying i've only just somewhat come back to tbt recently after a couple (a few?) years and i'm exclusively in the tbt marketplace and bell tree hq, and even then i don't check in very often. not keeping up with other parts of the site doesn't put you at a disadvantage for finding eggs, just keep reviewing how past hunts worked and don't overthink the clues too much. not to mention even if you can't figure out the clues, it's pretty easy to just stumble on them by chance if you're committed and diligent enough.
 
@Valzed, and others doubting themselves:
While being active does have its pros in the hunt, you don't necessarily need that to check off a few eggs from the list. I was inactive for about a year or so (I'd only go to TBT marketplace and Museum shop), so like I have no idea about the happenings in TBT. I did manage to find a handful of eggs though, bc I used previous egg hunts as reference. The hints are very vague, but every word/number counts. It's always been thinking outside the box with TBT's egg hunts, so if you're kind of an overthinker (or can easily connect certain words with other topics/terms), you should be able to find a few more eggs. :)

(Lmao im not the smartest in the bunch so don't take my whole word for it, but studying egg hunts in the previous years kind of helped me! Also google is your handy friend at times. c: Good luck!)

I’ve just joined a few days ago and I really just want one egg. Can anyone help?

It's against the rules to work as teams or give hints, but I suggest looking at the answers from previous years to get a good idea about how works. Check out the Bulletin Board threads around the March/April time over the last few years.
 
Totally took my sweet time writing this up. Refreshed the page and saw a few other people replied to your message before I could but...

I really hope you can come to be a little easier on yourself, this kind of event is definitely designed to trip us all up. It's good to think hard about the clues, but also keep in mind that each hint make total sense for where their eggs are hiding. It's kind of an a-ha! moment when you come across an egg, and you definitely get better and better the more practice you have with it. Don't feel discouraged, just take a break and come back with a clear mind and tackle one clue at a time!! :]

(For the most part, even if you are a out of the loop on TBT, it is still totally possible speed browse in search of a possible location!)
