TBT's Third Annual Easter Egg Hunt!

[Amissapanda]

Morning, folks.

I'll tell you a little something I did late last night that helped me: I put music on while searching. I'm not sure why, but I feel like it helped me from stressing so much and getting too tense and maybe it'll help someone else. Just putting it out there!

Why is it even illigal to give other hints. ?
It's just a game ( mods )
It's not like more hints would ruin the "scavanger hunt"

 

[Chris]

for the image, the "answer" could only be inputted one way, correct?

as in there's not other ways to say the answer that while technically right wouldn't be accepted


I guess for an example, something like 3DS vs 3DSSYSTEM, with both being the same "answer" but only one could be counted, while something like MARIO would only be one possible way to input answer, so all would count

This is correct. You need to get the puzzle codes exact in order to redeem the egg.

We've already given out clues. We could have just said, "There are 24 eggs hidden - go find them!" without giving any hints whatsoever.

because do your own work

its more satisfactory and eliminates favoritism

wow, what a day to join. I guess I'll be on here all day

 

[Holla]

Nevermind I just confirmed it does work on a smartphone as long as you are using the desktop version of the site like I always do (not sure about the mobile version).

 

[Zulehan]

Remember, capitalize the whole code.

welcome to tbt!

 

[Allycat]

Ahhh! The music one was SO hard! I finally found it after 20 minutes of searching.

 

[LambdaDelta]

no, I know that

I'm asking if the "answer" could only be given in one way. not through the code but in general


i guess taking my examples further, if this was a trivia quiz instead
"name the system that new leaf was released on"
Nintendo 3DS, 3DS, 3DS system, etc would all be valid answers, since they all effectively say the same thing. just in different wording

"name Nintendo's mascot"
only Mario could be the answer here. there's no other way to say this answer

This tripped me up for so long last night. I should never again try doing these at 1AM-4AM. Hahaha.

 

[LambdaDelta]

Remember, capitalize the whole code.

yeah, i've been capslocking it always

 

[Leela]

I'm going insane over #4. I'm 90% certain I know what I'm looking for but I can't find it.

 

[Allycat]

I found 4 eggs in and hour and a half.. I think I'll take a break now.

 

[LambdaDelta]

4 was one the last one i got so far, but i had the idea right from the beginning

that sounds like a plan for next year

Yes, I just told you that your way of thinking was correct.

 

[LambdaDelta]

alright cool, that probably eliminates my main ideas

but now that also means I'm basically 100% more clueless lel

 

[Lars]

Yes it's satisfying to find them, but a little more help is needed.

"A map to aid your journey"

That means it has something to do with like an atlas or a worldmap.
But a atlas has 500+ pages...
And here on the site is no atlas or worldmap...

So how is that a good clue ?

 

[Heyden]

Release 9 and 10~
I need something to start fresh with lol

 

[TheWonky]

I cannot find 6 or 7 for the life of me...

Map doesnt auto mean atlas...
