TBT's Third Annual Easter Egg Hunt!

These are so clever! I'm positive I could have found more if I would have put more effort into it.

Can't wait for next year's hunt!
 
I'll just be happy when Creepy Zipper is booted from the banner (not the weird tweaked ones, just the regular one). He's the one character who gives me the willies! lol
 
I wrote out a whole long post on my phone, but accidentally refreshed before I could post it. -.- I'll post when I get on an actual computer, haha. Though nice joke with the whole deleting the Golden Easter Egg, oath.
 
IT WAS A BULBORB
POTATO D:<

- - - Post Merge - - -

I don't get 10.
I KNEW 12 WAS A FALL OUT BOY REFERENCE
If 13 was referring to me (I tried my best but it looked really bad XD)
And the amiibo that i'm gonna buy for 35 bucks. Stupid best buy.
 
I wrote this up in my phone notes, so please excuse any dumb mistakes.
Reading the answers has been really eye-opening. 0.0
The puzzle ones still kill me. I was close to all of the answers, but didn't quite get there.
I was convinced it had something to do with Totaka's Song. Totally, utterly certain. I tried 100+ codes related to Totaka's Song. I was so obsessed, it played in my head all weekend, and I couldn't see past it to the right answer. I considered the podcast, but I was so obsessed with Totaka's song that I immediately dismissed it and didn't listen to it.
I wouldn't have gotten this unless I stumbled across it. That's very needle-in-a-haystack, holy cow. I spent at least an hour picking through the "Quick, before the mods come!" thread, thinking that it meant silence of the mods, loudness of the members, and that it would be where the members managed to post the highest. xD
Again, wouldn't have gotten it unless I'd stumbled across it. I haven't seen Big Hero 6 or heard the song before.
I'm 50/50 on whether I would've found this one or not. I thought it might have something to do with the SOTW thread, but I only checked the stickied one. I don't know if I would've thought to check the rest. To be honest, I thought it had to do with Jeremy's drawings on the back of the TBTF prize pack letters... Please don't ban me.
This is probably the one clue I was closest to solving. I tried Tina's DA and town name as the code, but my thought process didn't quite make it to dreaming of her town. That picture of Toadette sleeping on a bench in a Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker level tripped me up for a while.
Don't think I would've gotten this one. I haven't watched Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in years. I did check the thread multiple times though and didn't see it, LOL.
50/50 on this one. I thought it had something to do with amiibo, and checked the thread, but since I'm not buying amiibo and have never played a Kirby game I didn't look any further.
This one bugs me. I KNEW it had something to do with Mario Kart. But by this point I was super tired mentally, so I didn't try many codes.
So three I could've gotten, three I would've probably never gotten, and two 50/50 ones. Not too bad.
Note to self for next year - if it's not working, it's probably wrong. Move on. Don't obsess. That was totally my downfall.

Whew. All done. If you read those, have a cookie. :3

Awww silly timezone differences and adult responsibilities meant I didn't see the last few clues :(

I still have no idea what a bulborb is, so am happy that I wasn't overlooking something totally obvious...

I wanted a togepi egg... but will be happy with my Waluigi egg instead :D

I'm with you at #14, I kept thinking it had something to do with Captain Toad: Treasure Tracker ;w;

I'm probably the same, but too busy kicking myself for 14 and 23 at the moment. SO CLOSE.

Fearthecuteness said:
Yes but I think 14 was a bit unfair considering they never mentioned anything about any of this being involved outside of this forum which is why I never figured it out.

i was really close to 14 too, but because of me not thinking it would be off site, I missed it.

Another one I thought was off was egg 22. The explanation as least. They said 'aside from queen and king' and mention Meta Knight for the amiibos being released in Wave 3. But it bugs me cuz they didn't mention King Dedede. So it would have been a better clue to say "but it's not rooks, bishops, pawns or queens."
I doubt i would have gotten it even then, but it just would have made more sense xD

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.

I'll give it to you. That was clever, and I'm glad you kept it. I know I posted my opinion on what you did, but it's only cuz though this is just pixels, ppl did spend a lot of time looking for eggs to have fun and achieve a goal they have. Same with video games, it's just pixels yet we spend all this time getting our towns and homes and villagers just right!
Anyway, sneaky joke! But congrats to winning and glad it was not wasted ~
 
Wow, I no longer feel dumb for not getting most of these. I'm actually quite proud I got 11/24. It was a minor miracle.

I know you guys worked hard on them, but some of them were a little/a lot unfair to most users.

Oh well, it was still fun. Thanks for the event. :)
 
Congrats to everyone who achieved a egg this year! I wish I could have too but these questions where tricky for me. I hope I have better luck next year (Or maybe I'll just by a egg for TBT...idk)
 
W̶A̶H̶!̶ ̶E̶V̶E̶R̶Y̶O̶N̶E̶'̶S̶ ̶C̶H̶E̶A̶T̶E̶R̶ ̶B̶U̶T̶ ̶W̶A̶L̶U̶I̶G̶I̶!̶ all kidding aside, I managed to get three eggs, and my kudos to the mods for pouring their hearts into this year's challenge! that said I have to admit you've bested me this time!

also special kudos to Oath2Order for coming up with a creative use for his egg reward, I hope to follow his example!

(it's not SO bad, I mean the eggs can be fed to local wildlife!)

I remember checking the Twitter and I was like "Oh nothing here". Really? Just...

I got close on a few of them, but this was great. Good job to the mods.
 
Admins/Mods, can you guys please put up a list of people's guesses for the puzzle ones? If you have access to such a thing...

I know I tried some crazy af stupid things, I want to see what everyone else was trying. XD

Yeah, there were a lot of them that ended up in places I had already checked multiple times but I must have thought "Oh, I've already looked there" when going over the clues and not realizing I hadn't looked since the new clues were released. Still, I had fun and got my Yoshi egg. I'd actually never understood why people like the collectibles so much but now that I've actually EARNED one it's all clear. Plus, you know, YOSHI!
