[CDT] Easter 2024 - Egg Hunt

24-25h from now (worse case)

 

Hints for the starmie

Reminder: You must find all the hints for the prize, there are no rewards for finding a single one.

Hint #1 (Easy):



Hint #2 (Easy - Medium):

One of the most controversial threads in Sythe History


Hint #3 (Medium):

Most of you guys are *&&SA&^ (^%$^& and this is a way to show it.

Hint #4 (hard) (Very vague):
3152

Hint #5 (Medium-hard):




Note: I have toned down difficulty since the last questions people really struggled with.

 

Maybe, maybe not, that's for you to figure out.

 

Note: all eggs are in OP

 

last post for now: if you guys are solving these, if you could pm on Discord your progress or keep me updated it would allow me to know which one was too difficult and give possible hints later down the line.

As far as I am currently aware, people have found 1,2,4.

 

I'll clarify on this since few people have pm'd me, no code, no regex, no youtube, no google etc for #3

Edit: I will not give hints in private messages, if I answer your question it will be public unless I am confirming that you found the egg!

 

Update everything has been found, but not all by one user yet O.O

 

Hint #1 (Easy):



Solution: click the picture

Hint #2 (Easy - Medium):

One of the most controversial threads in Sythe History

Solution: https://www.sythe.org/threads/official-do-not-trade-dnt-megathread/
Reason: This thread brought up a lot of controversy at the time. Many, including some on staff, were against this. Some staff even stepped down.


Hint #3 (Medium):

Most of you guys are *&&SA&^ (^%$^& and this is a way to show it.

Solution: https://www.sythe.org/threads/get-an-extreme-homosex-minirank-from-sythe/
Reason: There are two miniranks that users can display to show how gay they are. One of these was given by Sythe on a thread in the Spam forums.

Hint #4 (hard) (Very vague):
3152

Solution: https://www.sythe.org/threads/where-did-name-here-go/
Reason: Quite a tough one, kinda brute forced it. I tried various things here but eventually started looking more on Sythe as 4 numbers is very little info. But, when sorting threads in Community General by # of replies, this one is on top with the most replies, exactly 3152.

Hint #5 (Medium-hard):

Solution: https://www.sythe.org/threads/going-to-sleep-5/
Reason: Josh has a series of spam forum threads where he posts he's going to sleep. The cat in the picture is also sleeping. Searching sleeping/sleep via Google or Sythe will lead you to one of his threads. This is hint #5, which is the thread number you'll find the egg.

 

These are all correct,

I'll leave this thread open for a few days for the final people who want to grab the egg mini ranks and also so I can leave the hidden egg public for a little bit (as soon as I lock it they have to be removed).

 

Yea what Potatobotter said. I don't think the symbols mean anything, it's just a way to censor swear words
