It's time for the 10th Annual TWW Easter Egg Hunt! The contest will start on Tuesday April 19 at 5:00 PM and will end on Wednesday April 20 at 5:00 PM. The winner will receive a full year’s premium subscription!
Here’s how the contest works:
The egg engine loads eggs into the system and assigns each egg to a random user in the "Who's Online" list of users online. Once an egg is assigned, it will stay in the system until : 1) The user loads a page on TWW or 2) 20 minutes go by. If a user loads the page, the egg will appear somewhere on the page. It will only appear on the first page loaded, so if you miss it, too bad!
Do not keep reloading the page. You will have 20 minutes to find the egg once it is assigned to you. It will be more beneficial to slowly scan each page rather than quickly refreshing. There are multiple eggs in the system at once, and it is even possible to have all eggs in the system assigned to a single user at the same time. Not loading an egg will not prevent other eggs in the system from being assigned to you. The best way to increase your odds of winning is to stay on TWW all day!
Remember, no posting of pictures of eggs on the site to fool other users---anyone who does so before the completion of the contest will be suspended.
they only show up in the top (and I presume in the viewable area) portion of the screen
***THIS IS NOT A REAL EGG BRUH - SINCE THIS ISN'T THE TOP OF THE SCREEN****
they vary in size, but that's just an example of one. you can't really miss them unless you click off really fast. make sure you scan each page for at least 2 seconds - sometimes it hides up there on the top left where the wolf logo is ]
^Well, first off, the hunt doesn't start until 5pm today. Pretty much as you browse TWW, randomly an egg will show up on your page. You can't miss it either. They stand out on the page. You click on it, you confirm it and then it's added to your score. All you have to do is catch the most before 5pm Wednesday. Pretty simple.
So would you have to scan every page of a thread, or would it be just at the top and the most recent? Do you need to click back to pages you've already been on?
Can we have hunts of sorts through the rest of the year? These are fun ^__^ Like, find the pumpkin for halloween or find little pictures of wolves or flags or something.
