1st Annual ONLINE Easter Egg Hunt !!!

submitted by CrazyJ on Thursday, March 21 2002 at 1:59 AM

In the spirit of the holiday, we at TWW are starting an annual tradition of an ONLINE Easter Egg Hunt! The hunt will begin on Sunday evening (3/24) and continue through Monday night at midnight. The winner of the hunt will receive a FREE 6 month premium subscription ($15.00 value) to The Wolf Web!

Check the story comments for more information regarding game play and rules.

Here is the idea of how it works :
-------------------------------------
An easter egg is initially generated for one of the users online. An online user is a user that has requested a page within the preceding 20 minutes.

If the user requests another page within the next few minutes, the egg will appear somewhere on the page near the top. If the egg is clicked, the user will receive the egg. A new egg will be immediately generated for another user whether the egg is clicked or not.

If the user fails to request a page within the next few minutes, a new egg will be generated for another user.
-------------------------------------
understand?

I think the system seems pretty hack proof. Anyone that attempts to fool the system will be disqualified and their eggs will be taken away. Any user that posts a picture of the egg to fool other users will be immediately suspended.

The best way to help your chances of winning is to stay on The Wolf Web all day. Repeatedly pounding the server will not help your chances and will probably make you just miss an egg.

sound like fun?

3/24/2002 9:08:38 PM

alright, after going fucking up the server for about an hour, i think the egg game is finally working!

click here to see the play by play and scoreboard!

3/24/2002 9:37:34 PM

jake, i dunno if things are gonna be like this forever, but i'm tired of error messages.

in the name of making things easier, i am withdrawing form the egg hunt. i'd like to maybe see one egg by the end of tomorrow, but i'm not trying anymore.

3/24/2002 10:41:49 PM

So this means that there is only 1 egg out there at a single point in time?

3/24/2002 10:45:35 PM

Egg update: I'm not winning!!!

3/24/2002 11:34:19 PM

this works for any part of the site, correct?

3/25/2002 2:00:41 AM

I have been looking and looking for an egg and have not seen one!!!!!!! what is the deal???

3/25/2002 2:22:11 AM

I remember when kevinstevens and 82 got suspended for posting egg pictures.


Then they were unsuspended and started a slew of "we back" threads.
