Puzzle host: Oblivia. Story writer and puzzle creator: Oblivia. (Safe Passage story writer: Tina.)

Just like last year, we ended the event with a lovely puzzle for you to all solve. Feel free to direct your frustrations at our puzzle master, Oblivia! To solve this puzzle, you had to figure out the word that describes each phrase. The number refers to the number of the letter in the word. Together, the thirteen letters make up the password:

1. jaCk
2. saturdAy
3. laudiNe
4. Collectibles
5. information dEsk
6. obLivia
7. expand your music tasteS
8. tinA
9. aniMal crossing new leaf
10. tbt mafia queue tHread 2.0
11. contact the stAff
12. tImmy nook
13. MereNgue

If you weren't able to solve it on time but would still like to read the concluding store, the board has now been opened for everyone to enter!

The first person to solve the puzzle earned both the pink candy collectible, as well as the extremely rare dark candy collectible. Congratulations to solving it without any hints and before anyone else...

King Dorado!
​

32 travelers solved the puzzle and found the path out of the Woods. We held a raffle to give out a pink candy to one of you! Congratulations to...

Vizionari!​

And to everyone else, including those of you who may have struggled with the puzzle or didn't win any staff favorites, we still want to thank you for participating and hope to see you all at our future TBT events!

 

[King Dorado]

congrats to all the winners!

and thanks again to staff for a really fun event!

 

[Justin]

Thanks to participating everyone! Jack's Spooky Shack is now closed in the Shop... and as requested by many, the Jack collectible is no longer unique so you can own more than one in your inventory.

 

[dedenne]

Oh morning everyone
I really liked that event, especially the variety of challenges .
I am now going to direct my frustrations at Oblivia.
Thanks you to all the staff!

 

[KaydeeKrunk]

Congrats to everyone who won! I'm glad I was able to participate in most of the events, wish I had come on to figure out the puzzle before it was over with!

 

[Alolan_Apples]

Congrats to the winners.

Yeah, that puzzle is hard. So where's my 20k TBT lawsuit?

By the way, the TBT-funded lawsuit is a joke. I always talk about them when they get hard.

 

[seliph]

Yall home of phobes will never experience love like Wix and Kracko's

 

[KaydeeKrunk]

Do we have an ETA of how long the Woods will be open?

 

[skarmoury]

oml I literally just took a break from studying and received a VM from King Dorado congratulating me and..... ??? ;;;; v;;; (I'm in great shock right now since the first path was the only path I was able to participate in so aaaaa thank you so much!! <3)

Congrats to the others winners too, and a warm thanks to the staff for another successful spooky event!!
(Curse that puzzle, I could spell the word "cancel" out but I was stumped with numbers 9 - 12. :'( )

 

[Alienfish]

lmao now i feel kinda dumb for not getting on how to get the last part of the 6th one .. i mean i kinda figured it'd be cancel something but i didn't connect them together lool.

also aw no staff fave again but alas grats to everyone!

 

[Daysie]

Congratulations to the winners and staff thank you for a great event!

[Jake]

FYI I had really bad diarrhoea for the majority of this event which is why I didn't do much. don't judge me ok

 

[Alienfish]

I honestly thought yours would be one of the winners because of how cool it was. I'm sure it's disappointing for you. :/

 

[Verecund]

I wasn't even close to the puzzle... I was trying to use Animal Crossing for all the clues instead of TBT (was thinking Gracie for 3, Katrina for 6, etc), and I kept thinking Wix for 4, should have realized it wasn't right when I couldn't figure out who the pixie or some of the other things were.

Although I did think of both Cancel and Samhain for words in the password, I just never found them in the selection of letters I got so I didn't bother trying to use them.

 

[cosmylk]

eyy grats to everyone !!
sad I missed out on an orange candy again D:
