Sponsored by the A-Breaking Laboratory. Supervised by OT Royal Society of Quality. In collaboration of OT!Parliament and approved by OT President abraker.

Fellow denizens and others, welcome to the OT Egg Hunt! Now you must be wondering why we are doing an egg hunt in the middle of fall instead of April like normal people. I sometimes wonder that too, but let’s set that aside for now. There is a backstory at the bottom if you really need to know why, but trust me you don’t. What you want to know is how to participate in this event!

There are rumors that up to 62 eggs are hidden all across OT. Some are hidden in plain sight, some are hidden really well, and some impossibly well. No post is too old and every post is equally suspicious! Eggs can be found on posts by abraker, KatouMegumi, samx500, tad, eblf, and keremaru.

As you find eggs, their worth will be added to your total score. Each egg’s worth starts with 100 points, but as more people find the same eggs their worth will go down. The math is elementary, my dear denizens! Once you found an egg simply go to this form to submit your find:


>>> https://forms.gle/dvKEAREbCm31Ldwx7 <<<


This event will last for a month, giving you all plenty of time to find the eggs. There will be a few winners at the end for:

  1. Highest score
  2. Largest score from individual eggs
  3. Most eggs found
and my personal favorite:

  1. Most traps found
Yep, some eggs are actually fakes! The actual eggs look like this:
SPOILER

Ah sorry for the technical difficulties. We will get back to you on that as soon as one of my smartest idiots fixes the antenna. What do you mean he got lost in Cambodia and succumbed to flesh eating micro-phages?

So if you see an egg that doesn’t look any of those, you better know it’s fake! Well, good luck to all!

backstory
So it was another day at A-Breaking Laboratory and I was finishing up all the testing needed to roll out the top secret portal tech I was developing for so long. Yes, I finally -- almost -- mastered them portals thanks to the use of Keremaru’s advanced alien tech while aboard the Passion Orange Guava. Unfortunately Keremaru lended me the wrong dimension opening thingy and instead of it being a space-time rift gate it was a time-space rift gate. Ya know, instead of teleporting across space you end up teleporting across time.

So one thing led to another and the Easter Bunny from the future decided to jump through the portal and escape, but not before taking apart the machine and hiding various parts in those hidden eggs. That’s where I need you, denizens! Please help me find those eggs so that we can send the Easter Bunny back to the future. If we don’t there might be no Easter!

i dont give a shit

There are 62 egg among threads.
z0z
that's too many for me to really try searching for
Topic Starter
abraker
too many means you are bound to find some!

I honestly don't expect every egg to be found. Pulling it off would make impressive an understatement
z0z
my completionist self is getting annoyed at this contest especially since i have no idea what the eggs are supposed to look like
Lapizote
question, are dead-end posts the traps or is it a photo?

or am I not allowed to ask?
Topic Starter
abraker
traps are various shenanigans that make you lost or make you think you found an egg when you have not

There are some fake eggs considered as traps. You will be able to tell them apart once you run into enough of them, and you will know they are fake since it will say in scoreboard you found a fake egg.

Number of those fake eggs that are found are one of the "losing wins"
Lapizote
oh, cool.
GPR
So that's why I saw bunch of random egg post in random thread.
Astrid Park
I am really interested but my lazy brain can't process of finding these eggs.
levesterz
i wonder how deep is the rabbit hole for the trap.
GPR
Can you please use UTC time for log?
levesterz
there are 53 eggs left among thread
owh i thought that are fake damn.

abraker
Before someone finds the same egg and asks why their points changed: Your points will go down even if you already found the egg.

It was hard to judge how much an egg should be worth because we don't know how easy or hard our hides are. So it's been decided that their worth be adjusted as the game progresses. We actually got a spreadsheet calculating all this stuffs:



Based on info filled out in another tab:

i have another question, do each individual egg look different or there can be identical-looking eggs?
Topic Starter
abraker
there can be identical ones

Fizzn gave us about 9 variation to start with, then created more sometime later on

Also guys, please provide post or thread link. I have no way of figuring out what egg # that is from image link alone

i'll partially give up on this event until i figure out where i should be looking because this event is going to piss me off when i have no idea what and where exactly to look

actually multiple people can find the same egg.
z0z
i realize that the egg i got is probably the only egg i'll find ever in this absurdly vast universe of OT
because all the other eggs are hidden so well i can't find them
Hoshimegu Mio
I found 3 so far (IDK if they are traps). They are so hard to find!

Also, are we supposed to find traps?

if you want to get the "most traps found" award, I guess.

You guys won't find majority of eggs by just searching for the word "egg".
Nuuskamuikkunen
I thought I put my eggs easy enough for people to at least find one.
A little hint.
66 degrees, 33 minutes, 52 seconds north.

Does abraker's countless egg posts even lead to a single egg?

No.

My eggs are pretty hard I'll admit, but because they are hard they are also the most worth since few will find them. But I shall be clement and give you an hint as to where one of my egg may be found, but be warned that if you follow my hint, you shall walk straight into the lair of shit.
Isshiki Kaname
Yanno, you are supposed to send in post links.

This counts as a daily hint from me.

indeed, if you send just the imgur code we won't be able to know what egg it is since we only keep track of which thread they are hidden in.

It's updated automaticatly?
Isshiki Kaname
No harm in telling.
Kinda, yeah. But abraker has to manually check them still.
