TBT's Thirteenth Annual Easter Egg Hunt (Answers Posted!)

[Aurita]

not sure if this was confirmed but are puzzle guesses generally one word? or will the clue state if it requires a phrase with no spaces? Not counting those code/number ones

I'm going to cry. I really, really love a particular egg from one basket. And I really, really love two eggs in the other basket.

No wait. That's not enough tears.

But the ever-hopeful part of me will keep believing they will all return in future egg hunts.

Here friend, i will help you… . LOL. I was super bummed when I realized we received 2 eggs for participation in the egg painting, but the collectibles start at 3 eggs! There honestly isn’t any way I can find eggs. I spent a good amount of time when it first rolled out but honestly it is literally like looking for a needle in a haystack! I don’t really know what I’m doing, and I’ve got a big family Easter event at my house on Sunday.
So I’ll be enjoying vicariously! Good luck! Hope you find some eggs! I wonder if we will be able to gift eggs before everything is over? Because what good are two eggs? Better to give them to someone so they get something awesome. Now here is the strategy for you….you find someone who has picked the opposite basket than yours and they want one of the eggs in your lineup. Hopefully you can buy the eggs for each other and end up with at least 1 egg from the basket you didn’t pick! I chose the one with the lucky cat and then laughed when I realized oh boy this isn’t gonna happen, lol!

GOOD LUCK EVERYONE, I promised I'd stay up just to see the new eggs and here I am at 2am....

also not to sound annoying but I rly miss the old version of puzzles... it was fun spamming for dear life and then the absolute wonder of it actually hitting, this method takes away the magic (lol) ((sry I didn't see Jeremy had addressed this already but my point still stands))

Yeaaaah I could understand the whole "no one can confirm the answer" if we were still not allowed to work in groups but now that we're allowed to help each other I really don't get it lol. It's already an annoying (complimentary) event, the infinite puzzle guesses were kind of a relief from that.

Now the only thing getting me through it is blue pikmin egg my beloved.

 

[-Blue-]

If I can figure out one clue I'll be lucky. The blue Pikmin one looks pretty cool! I like Pikmin lol. Every year I take a peek at the clues and I always feel like such an outlier here lol! I have no clue what any of this lore means.

I like my eggs scrambled or in omelet. I know where to always find them.

[Saylor]

STARLIGHT EGG MY BELOVED!!! ️

I'm def not even attempting these until tomorrow, but the Starlight Egg is gorgeous and I need it omg

 

[KittenNoir]

@Zipper T. Bunny why!!!!!!!!!! I am looking for eggs and saw this float up

 

[BetsySundrop]

Put in a guess for the puzzle, still going to keep thinking about it just in case lol.

Is there a deadline for choosing a basket? Or is it just choose before you buy kind of thing?

 

[amemome]

daaang the egg collectibles are so good!! great job artists!!

i was hesitating on trying my hand at the hunt this year because i was just not online enough to understand most of the clues but i think imma have to try!

 

[Paperboy012305]

Well it seems like I'm ineligible to find #3 as I looked basically everywhere for it.
Thing is, it could be hiding in the most obvious spot possible and I am unaware of it's location.

I only like the Blue Pikmin Egg. Maybe one day we'll discover the other Onions. Or we could just have the OG three

Starshine Egg is Stardust Egg's imposter, lol

it instantly reminded me of Starshine Beach Galaxy from Super Mario Galaxy 2, so I like this egg, too.

Hey everybody. Please don't ask for a private group to work on clues together in here. As a reminder, while we won't disqualify those who work together privately, we'd still prefer that everybody works on the non-community clues alone. Remember what it says in the OP:

While we will not disqualify participants who privately work together on solo clues, we ask that you be respectful to those who wish to work alone. Don't beg for help or spoil answers publicly.

When do with have to decide on our basket? Can I just wait till the event ends? >->'

Is there a deadline for choosing a basket? Or is it just choose before you buy kind of thing?

There is no deadline! You're able to choose a basket up until the shop closes!

 

[LateGamer]

Oh my word! Puzzle #4 just smacked me in the noggin, lol! I looked at that clue several times in the past few hours and then it just hit me. Maybe I will be able to do these puzzles after all. Or does each additional one get harder.

Could I respectfully ask for clarification on this? It seems a bit odd/confusing to explicitly state that cooperation is permitted while also saying that staff discourage it and don’t want people to cooperate.

Prohibiting even spoiler-free posts like “would love to join a PM to work together!” seems to give a huge advantage to popular users with a large/established network on TBT who will already be messaging each other and can naturally share hints if they want, while putting less popular users in the position of having to just “cold call” other participants with messages seeking help or (much more likely) just give up and solve clues alone.

I would understand if staff decided not to allow cooperation, but since it is allowed, it seems like it would be a lot more balanced and fair to give everyone a shot at cooperating—and for what it’s worth, I think these events are much more fun when we can work with each other and make connections!

I’m sorry, I’m really not trying to be critical! I would love to understand the reasoning here.

i'm horrible with clues so im just gonna click everything and see what works

 

[Mokuren]

Back to figuring out 3 after sleeping! I am pretty confidant in 4!

 

[DaCoSim]
