Zipper's Zany Zillion - Answers Posted!

[Chris]

Three years ago, Zipper T. Bunny challenged the Czar of Halloween to an event-off and spectacularly lost. As a result he and his eggcellent puns were barred from The Bell Tree Manor and he was forced to pledge that he would never lay his grubby paws on Halloween ever again. But did he really keep his promise? You will find that Zipper T. Bunny has eggnored the rules he agreed to and has been sneaking his Halloweaster eggs into Jack's holiday festivities for years. And you've just walked right into his off-season home: a sideshow tent at the Bell Tree Haunted Carnival.

This time, Zipper T. Bunny isn't playing nice. He has a bone to pick with you all. Instead of sharing many eggs with you, he's only sharing one - and he's going to make you work for it. That's what you get for helping Jack to find all 25 of his eggs during Halloweaster 2020. Oh, you say you registered in 2022? You weren't involved and shouldn't be punished for the 2020 users error in judgement? Zipper T. Bunny doesn't care. Jack loyalists can rot like neglected eggs. (Zipper T. Bunny only wants to be loved.)

Tackle a zillion zany problems for Zipper T. Bunny and in return he might be so kind as to gift you an egg. Maybe. If you ask very nicely and wear a ridiculous costume. Bonus points if your mom made it.

ah, so it was a lie after all

zipper should know that liars get the fires

 

[Mokuren]

I knew mind tent has something to do with Zipper Already crying bloody tears. Thank you Zipper.

 

[Alolan_Apples]

I don’t know what this clue is saying. Do irises grow in Egypt?

 

[Mokuren]

I solved number 1. Can we share the solution here?

Honestly I am shocked I got it so fast LOL

 

[kiwikenobi]

Can we share the solution here?

You may work together in the thread

I think the answer is yes, so, I'd at least like a hint, please, because I'm completely stumped. ^o^;>

 

[Mokuren]

It's so early and I don't want to spoil the fun with the solution but honestly if you all want straight up the solution I will post it!

I am super bad with hints but I give it a try. I found it more on accident tbh. Never heard it before but that may be a more known thing in other parts of the world!

For the [bad] hint(s):

Spoiler

- Red river and the iris refer to a real location/region. When googling ignore the iris part. You will get confusing resultes!
- it's halloween themed and from rl.

More specific:

Spoiler

Search for stories/legends about the location.

 

[LambdaDelta]

Spoiler

I'm searching and just getting sciency stuff and ultra vaguely landed on geography

 

[Mokuren]

I found the solution with some good old googling - more with luck than actual thinking.

What I'm hearing is that you want them to be harder. Got it.

 

[Xara]

snip

I am glad the hints were useful. Wasn't so sure about it

 

[Chris]

I lied. Havn't found anything at all

The transaction log says otherwise!

 

[kiwikenobi]

Finally figured it out with the hints, thank you, everyone. Never heard of whatever it is before. ^o^;>

 

[Alolan_Apples]

I finally got it. Thanks for helping.

I thought there was only one place where the river ran red, which was followed by the frogs, the lice, the flies, diseased livestock, boils, hail, locusts, darkness, and finally, the angel of death.

yeah I mean with google

idk if I'm missing something or if goggle self-tailoring search results is interfering on my end, but nothing even remotely checks as a possible lead thus far

Jack loyalists can rot like neglected eggs.
