I personally do, though there are quite a lot that don't. They say its nightmare inducing and finding one egg takes an hour/eternity.

I always think finding eggs are the fun part, and when I actually find one, I feel so proud of myself that I found one. Despite the horror of hours finding eggs and headaches I might have, its all fun nonetheless.

So I love it, and very excited for it this year. But do you like it and are you excited?
 
It is indeed nightmare inducing and most of the eggs do take an eternity to find, but I also get really excited for it (in like a stressful way) because I love seeing the new egg collectibles (and stressing about how I'm going to get them) and I feel very proud of myself when I do manage to solve the clues.

It's a love-hate relationship. But I'd be pretty sad if they stopped doing egg hunts. I've been counting down to it since the beginning of April.

I don't mind it, tbh. I sadly don't have access to a boiled egg due to living on campus and being broke plus exams are coming soon. However, I can understand why people are upset about it, though. I mean, not everyone has access to boil eggs and since the prizes are really, really good, it may frustrate a few people who actually would love to enter but can't.

We are talking about the egg hunt. I'm too stupid to figure out riddles lol but it is fun.

i love it, it's been my favourite event since i started, i know it's difficult but it's so rewarding when you see that annoying little stupid egg that you've been aimlessly searching for the past 7 hours, nothing beats that feeling, also i love the egg collectibles, the staff always do an amazing job!

interesting fact but i've only called in sick once from my job and it was during the egg hunt : ) no regrets as i found most of them that year
 
I'm excited to get the chance to obtain more egg collectibles, but I've never been a riddle person so the clues are always hell for me. :rolleyes:
 
This year, i'm researching areas on the forum where I think the Staff would hide the eggs. I did this last year, but I only found 16 eggs. Oh well, it was good.
 
It's my first experience, hope not the last lol. By the looks of it everyone is afraid because of some super hard riddles. I'm gonna suck but still excited I guess
 
It sounds like so much fun! I love riddles and poking around to find stuff. I haven't participated yet but I can't wait to.

Okay but I feel the same with the slashed out section.

This is my first time, and I anticipate finding 2, maybe 3 eggs, cause 1 I'm dumm 2 riddles are hard and 3 just what everyone else says. But I'll put my all in what I can, considering it's only 2 days long.
 
I just want to say that I don't think the overall hunt is that evil / impossible as the saying goes around here. (but there are always a couple clues like that) I think most people talk about it like that as more of a joke/meme at this point, which I also like doing and find quite funny, but hopefully anyone new to the event doesn't come in thinking it's impossible before they even begin! It should be possible for everyone to find some, and the difficulty does vary sometimes from year to year as it's hard to predict. We always make sure to throw in some easy ones!

It's not impossible, I'm just stupid. ?\_(ツ)_/?
It would be nice if we could work in teams of 2 or 3 though...

I can agree with you there.

I'm just going to rank the Easter Egg Hunts from Easiest to Hardest: (FYI. I wasn't around for 2013's Easter Egg Hunt, so don't expect that on the list. I also wasn't around for 2014's Easter Egg Hunt, but i'm putting it in the list anyway)

1: 2016
2: 2014
3: 2015
4: 2017
5: 2018

Dang! People hardly tried in 2018. I mean, there were only two that were the most found, Egg #3 and Egg #12. Oddly enough, they had the same number of how many were found. 114! And it was made by the same person, Tom!!!

I wonder how hard it'll be this year, I can take a challenge.

I never participated in one yet even though I?ve been a member of TBT for almost six years now. I don?t know why, but I guess I was just never really interested in participating in events back then, and also the fact that I had several hiatuses sprinkled throughout my time on here doesn?t help. So this will be the first one I actually participate in head-on. I?m looking forward to it! I?m going to spend an ample amount of time this week preparing for it, doing nothing but looking back at the old Easter egg hunt threads and what kinds of riddles are generally asked, looking for keywords, and when the event starts, I?ll probably even keep going backwards and more backwards in pages as it was mentioned before that eggs can be hidden in threads from a year or two ago, but that?s only if I can?t solve the riddles. It looks like the key to doing well in this event is not to use a lot of time, but to use your time wisely! ;)

Well, to be honest, it's a love-hate thing for me. One the one site it's fun, on the other site it's
frustrating. It's the riddles which are sometimes a pain for me, as I'm either too dumb to search
at the right place or just don't know where to search at all.
 
its really fun but i end up traumatized after every year because i swear they just keep getting harder like the house of mirrors
 
Haven't done it in 5 years but from what I can remember, its definitely unforgiving.

I haven't done it yet. I missed last year's because of the flu. I didn't realize finding the eggs might actually be so time consuming - like literally take hours. We have family stuff going on & I don't know how much time I'll have to hunt for the eggs even if I do figure out the riddles. I was really looking forward to it but now I'm really anxious about if I'll have enough time.
