TBT's Third Annual Easter Egg Hunt!

[cheezyfries]

kinda feel dumb lol i got number 3- knew it had to do with super smash bros but couldn't find the right thread! i got most of the "easy" ones, but still happy i got my purple egg
edit: looking back, i knew that #13 had to do with SOTW, but i didn't look back, instead i kept on stalking the current one also after typing #12 into google, i saw that it had to do with FOB's immortals, but didn't know where it went lol, how do we redeem our eggs for bells?

"verb
1.
be especially proud of a particular quality or skill."

Anyone?

This is what "pride" meant in the clue, yes. It had nothing to do with groups or lions.

I didn't write this clue, and I will not respond to any follow-up comments so do not ask me, but I'll do my best to explain what I assume was Gandalf's method thinking when he wrote it.

Pride is the main reason why users need to be sly and use the TBT Undercover skin, so people won't know they are viewing an Animal Crossing forum. Hence it's name. Anyone who made the connection between sly and undercover, would even have found an additional little hint in the thread regarding it's announcement (located here in the Bulletin Board) where it even states that Jeremy made the TBT Undercover skin for the purpose of browsing the forum at work.

Me and someone else are convinced 13 wasn't even visible for us. Maybe it was the same for you.

This egg was very easy to miss even if you were looking at the right thread. It was positioned mid-way down a post and located on the right-hand side of the post at the end of a line of text, so even you were in the right location you still had to look carefully to catch it!

Guys stfu about the meaning of pride.

I feel like a doofus reading them answers x] I was so close with a few. Alas~ there's always next year!

 

[ShinyYoshi]

I knew I would feel stupid reading the answers... But dang. I feel pretty stupid.

Exactly! But I wasn't smart enough to think that through. Whatev's

 

[Campy]

In the right place so many times, but didn't look well enough for them. Fail.

 

[Zane]

Yessss the big reveal. 8) I was too tired when the last clues were announced to look anymore otherwise I think I could've got the oompa loompa and splatoon ones. I was in the wrong thread for 22. 23 I knew was Mario Kart related but couldn't figure out the code lol right idea wrong thread again for egg 9. I was soo close on 13, I even saw the first SOTW thread but didn't bother clicking on it wahhh

the other ones I was missing were 10, 12, and 16 and I feel like I made the right choice givin up on those ones, I was even playing in the Mute Cuty stage in MK8 yesterday and my mind never made the connection hahah

ANYWAY this was a very interesting and well-organized event and I had fun participating, so kudos and thank-you's to the staff. Making all the eggs (besides gold ofc) unlimited took the pressure off for a lot of people too so I think that was a good decision.

And the Waluigi egg is awesome.

#19 was an event that happened involving Pierrot the clown a few days ago.

Yeah but I don't know these people.

Thank you for explaining it!
Despite confusion over the wording, I figured it was something undercover but still in plain sight...I just wish I'd known I could change the forum skin. XD

Gah, I feel so stupid reading the answers. Ah, well, I had fun. <3

Aww, I knew it had something to do with the Undercover, but I looked at the announcement instead of actually switching :c

I don't want to dig through threads. So discarding the golden egg was a joke? Or was it replaced?

fake video

Video one is 7 seven seconds. It's where I take show the egg in inventory, and click and hold the confirmation of deletion button for the golden egg. I leave it there for a few seconds, and move away so it doesn't submit. I hit cancel. Stop recording, cut a few seconds off. Start recording again right after I'm holding the "ok" button for confirmation of deletion on the hidden cake on the top of the list of collectibles.

 

[marzipanmermaid]

Man, I was so close to getting tons of these and reading the answers makes me feel proud that I at least knew/was on the right track, but dumb that I couldn't find what I needed to despite stalking the threads, lol. Oh well. It was fun! Now I can stop dreaming about eggs...

Very clever. Added some more eggcitement to this year's hunt. Congrats on obtaining the egg and thank you for the reply.

I needed one more for "Wahh"

I knew what #8 was. I was afraid it was gonna be wrong, but it wasn't! I knew it was a bulborb because the mirror made it look like one.

I only got it bc someone in the thread posted what it was and I saw it b4 it was deleted

Random question out of nowhere, how do people arrange their collectibles so neatly? I want to arrange my eggs in a specific way but I don't know how.

You'll have to trade them for dates other people have. Your collectibles are arranged by order of which they were bought.
