Geeeeeeeeeeez, 15. Really??? I put in scrambles, scramble, scrambled, scrambled eggs, egg scramble, breakfast, egg hunt, six eggs, zipper, zipper tree bunny, anacrostic, Pok?mon (< at first I thought it was a Pok?mon scrambled up), easter, Easter eggs. And the list goes on. I would have never in a million years guessed secret.

Clue 3??? Ugh. I looked through splat zone. On the last page was prof gallows thread: calamari of general discussion. I knew that was the right thread!!! (Wrong!!!) and then I remembered that when they added new mods, a while back, the gave them all squid hats, so I checked that thread. (Wrong). Then I thought well they said TBT's FAV calamari so I went to the people's choice awards to see who all won this year and there was Murray voted for splatoon!!! I was in the right track now for sure right??? (Wrong). I stalked poor Murray's page and then went and looked through as many splat threads as I could specifically looking for Murray's posts.

I spent so much time in those 2 and Oblivia's egg 19 as well. I honestly don't know how I missed that one.

i did exactly what you did for number 3 lmao
i thought i was right too, absolutely cruel
 
ahhh THANKS MODS, this event is just amazing, it's nice gathering here and watching people break down with you, i really feel a strong sense of community when we're all crying over the same thing. also the eggs are so beautiful thank u thunder. and thank u to whoever revised clue 3 as i was finally able to find it

I thought the calamari one was about Zucker welp.
Also 24 was just MEAN. I was sure it had to do with red turnips.

I was sure #3 was about one of the octopus villagers, and when I found out Marina was the most popular of those, I focused on her.

And I was *sure* REDTURNIP or a variation thereof was the answer to #24. From the golden axe quest in WW.
 
Can we please get rid of the frankly upsetting Zipper face now because I'm suffering every time I come onto the forums and I don't need that terror to go along with my already considerable disappointment and rage at this cursed bonding experience
 
For a lot of these, I was just looking in the wrong place, but I knew exactly what it was.

RIP Galaxy Egg. </3

Anyway, the event was admittedly still really fun and I enjoyed it! The eggs this year were really great too, which just made obtaining them feel even more satisfying. ;D
 
ty for this annual brain frying event mods, the banners, graphics, and eggs were the best yet this year <3

Yup. I tried REDTURNIP, REDTURNIPS, TURNIP, TURNIPS, GOLDENAXE, AXE, THEGOLDENAXE, GOLDENAXETRADINGGAME, etc
 
I was convinced egg 6 was pokemon related ._________________________. that clue was way too confusing.
 
Duuuuude

The people who you want to talk to and the political thread ****ed me over
Couldn't find them for hours
 
I literally had the most genius idea for puzzle 15, "SCRAMBLEDEGGS", I was sure that was the answer lmao :'(
 
Aw man, I was close to a couple of them, but I didn't find them. I did manage to get one egg collectible though. I never got six clues before. :)
 
i got egg 6 but thought i got egg 2 so spent ages looking for egg 6 when i already had it :')
thought the generation bit was referring to new and old mods that's why lmao

i put that too and almost cried when it was wrong smh
 
I was on the right track for a lot of these, just too lazy to do the digging. Some of these though I was way off, but I'm certain I would've found more if I would have put in the effort.
You can tell who is a Pok?mon fan and who isn't by wether or not they found egg #5 obvious. (Although I've never played a Pok?mon game in my life and I got that one) :p
