Welcome to the main headquarters of the first WolfQuest Spring Egg Hunt! The goal of this little game is to find all of the letters around the forum which are hidden in text eggs. On the topic you will find how many letters each word is, but not where they are hidden! Your job is to find all of the letters and then unscramble them to make a word and then send your entry to Adalae. In order to win, you must have all the letters and correctly unscramble the word. The word will have something to do with WolfQuest or wolves.
For example, if the word you were looking for was WolfQuest, the letters would be scrambled and put in "eggs" in topics around the site. The egg would be a letter in the middle of parenthesis ( ) and will be located at the bottom or top of a post.
- RULES
- ◇ No teaming up with other users to find the eggs.
◇ Do not discuss or allude to the location of the eggs on this topic or anywhere else. The point is to find the eggs yourself, not to have someone ruin the fun and tell you the location of them!
◇ If you are the winner of the round and pick the word for the next one, do not tell ANYONE the word you have picked.
◇ Don't ask for extra clues.
- CURRENT ROUND: - 2
- ◇ Letters in the word: 5
◇ Current clues released: -
◇ Round Start: Sunday, April 13th.
◇ Round End: TBD
Depending on how many people finds the eggs, the round may end sooner.
- LIBRARY OF CLUES
- WINNERS OF ROUND 1 (listed in order of rank)
Word: Leopold
Questions/Answers:
Q: Okay sounds fun, but what if I have trouble finding all of the eggs?
A: Well, every Sunday of every week we will post a clue on where to find the letters in one of the eggs. We will post as many clues as the amount of letters in the words.
Q: Are there prizes?
A: For sure! The first person to unscramble the word and send it to Adalae gets an awesome, unique rank title going by the name of 'Supreme Egg Hunter' and an awesome avatar! They also get to pick the word for the next round. All people who find and unscramble the eggs before the next round starts gets put on a list on the front post.
Q: Can someone win more than one round?
A: If a person wins the round, they pick the word for the next round. This means that they do not qualify to win the next round. However, they do qualify for the round after that, as they do not know the word.
Q: Do you have any tips?
A: Don't waste time by looking in places other than the forums. We will not hide the eggs deeper than the first page of a thread. They will also be important, well-known threads, or threads with many replies. Additionally, it is advised you make a list of the letters and where you have found them so far so you don't "find" a letter more than once.
Q: How can I help out?
Right now we are looking for someone to create an egg related avatar for the winner of this round! If you'd like to create an optional avatar for the winner, feel free to create one then send it to me. If more than one person create an avatar, those later avatars will be used in later rounds or for second and third place winners. Also if anyone wants to make additional prizes for first, second or third place winners, that would be awesome!

Just putting it out there that all of the eggs have already been hidden around the forum. I am posting clues to help out those who couldn't find some or all of them. So you can still start seeking 'dem eggs ;]
glad to see there's an interest in the competition!

Hahaha I thought the game started yesterday, and yesterday I started searching for the eggs. This explains everything. Already found one, lets see if I find another.

I may submit an avatar for this too, but we'll see.
EDIT: I submitted my answer. I sure hope it's correct.

Got a question, the text eggs are hidden in any topic of the Community?

Yes, they can be found in any thread, however we've hidden them in completely different threads so it isn't too easy ^^
