TBT's Seventh Annual Easter Egg Hunt

[Lemonsky]

I feel so dumb because of the 5th clue, I was going through posts in the Bell Boom/Kaleidoclover thread but then apparently didn't find the right post. Same with the 10th clue. Ahhh.

 

[cornimer]

Things I tried for 21 before figuring it out
-My first guess was HYBRIDS because there are 7 hybrid flower collectibles but we all had lots of hybrids in our AC towns
-SNOWGLOBES because only 7 people own snowglobe collectibles
-Staff, tabs (there are 7 tabs on the menu bar), EGGHUNTS (which was on the right track but from the first clue I never would have guessed the answer was a number), fleas, turnips, bels, butterflyzippers, every TBT thing imaginable
-Pokemon, Yoshi, Pikmin, Chibirobo, every AC reference you could imagine
-Then I got really deep and started putting life things like nightmares, dreams, hopes, regrets, mistakes, tears, breakdowns...anything you can "have"
-Then I looked through every recent thread on TBT and put ones that had 7 posts or poll options that had 7 votes (I was particularly convinced about PANCAKES from a thread about favourite breakfast food because 7 people voted it and we all eat lots of pancakes)
Basically I wasted a whole lot of time yesterday before the clue was updated

There is also a wikipedia on the number 7 that provided much more. I was convinced it had something to do with like space or something. I don't know how anyone could've gotten it without the updated hint tbh.

Don't forget too, if you had a tasty cake already, you got a free 35 bells

I eventually managed to get them all this year wowz

I think this may of been my first “Easter egg hunt” on tbt. I’ve checked them out before but I was banned during all the past ones so I never got to really participate I think.

 

[Nougat]

Four the clue with the tasty cake reference I even ended up in the Groups section where apparently there is a group for baking lovers! I was so convinced I'd find it there, but alas. I should've realised that I had to buy one though due to the 35 bells.. I did go and look in the shop, but it in my basket, but didn't end up checking out. Ah, well

lies

I still ended up buying a second one, because I thought the egg would show up after purchasing the item or something, and so the 35 bells was given for that

I thought the tasty cake was in reference to when they were first released and there was that cooking by the book video linked. Then I realised they wouldn’t give me 35 bells for no reason.

I thought the tasty cake would be in the announcement post back in 2015 where they first released the tasty cakes. Even the music video from Lazy Town was there so I was so sure,, apparently not lmao

 

[Princess Mipha]

I thought 21 had something to do with the continents.. at first I was thinking about egghunts, since there are seven, but I would've never guessed the right answer.. my continents (amount of states inside) would've been so clever though

 

[Mokuren]

Was anyone also so stupid with the Doppelganger and the Zipper O. bunny? ;o; I was so confused because of the O xD

 

[Rio_]

I missed out on 3, 5, 9, and 11. Even though they made me weep in despair at the time, I don't feel too bad since they referred to stuff I didn't know about Except maybe 11, which I had a feeling was related to Friday the 13th and some sort of misspelled collectible, but I couldn't remember/my research was terrible ;o;

I knew 21 was probably related to it being the seventh egg hunt, but I didn't get it until the "sum" part was added (no pun intended)!

 

[Animecafe102]

With the cake one my stupid self didn't realize the egg was just supposed to be clicked on so I was thinking I had to put a code or soemthing in the text box and now I have 3 tasty cakes and I hate myself because I want my bells back XD idk how I didn't notice the clickable egg like I'm so dumb

Why is there so much stuff with the number 7 linking to it on this forum

It's like some weird 7 cult

 

[Flare]

Ugh I kept insisting to myself Egg 21 meant Wolves in ACPC since currently there's only seven and all other villagers are missing some members of their species too.

 

[Mr. Cat]

I am so terrible... I needed 3 eggs to get the egg I wanted (Dreamy Egg) and I was on 3 of these pages where I was missing an egg, looking, and didn't find them. Ahahaha, oh boy. All the flashing and colors on the last day obviously worked to make it challeging. Unfortunately, that was the only day I had time to look and I have cognitive health issues that make looking at that stuff really confusing, I get dizzy/nauseous/confused. It sort of helped to change my phone's color to black and white but it was a pain in the butt.

 

[Paperboy012305]

Now about this #21 thing.

I guessed the Golden Series from Pocket Camp because you are only able to get 7 at that time, and the rest was unable to be received. Plus the sum part made it sense because it was expensive to craft

I also guessed the Sage too. I also guessed what villagers have a total of 7 in New Leaf, yet had so many more in the older games. I answered all the villagers that suffered this, but none were right.

I gave up on answering clues/puzzles around 8PM EST yesterday. But I still had fun.

 

[Valzed]

I thought I was going to feel really dumb when the answers came out but I don't. There are a couple of clues I didn't know anything about like the WierdDoll. I honestly didn't know we had a Track Messages page. I need to check that out. The only one I really feel stupid over is Clue 8. I remembered a thread about the Democratic Primary because I remember posting in the thread. I just forgot which area the thread was in & couldn't find it.

 

[Holla]

The cake one drove me nuts I never did find it. Is there even any purpose to configuring the cake in the first place? xD

 

[imiya]

OHH the cake one makes so much sense now.

 

[2kimi2furious]

I was very, VERY close to finding two extra eggs this year. Not that it would have made a difference, because I wouldn't have gotten the egg I wanted, lol. Hopefully I will do better next year.
