celes paradi treasure hunt

About the Host
Hello and welcome to my first event game! I am your host, fiarra. I've been on Menewsha since December '07 and loved every minute. This is my first event as a staff member, and the first time I've ever run an event game. I love chatting with people around the forums and I hope this is a chance for me to meet lots of new people! So please come chat with me and have fun with the game. <3
About the Hunt
The festival of the three noble ladies has begun and all the heavens have come out to play! Unfortunately, a few of the stars got lost along the way. Luckily, their trails of stardust have left behind some clues in regards to where they have gotten to. Help us find the stars scattered around the forums using the clues and report back here!
What can you win?
  • Each correctly reported star will be awarded 100 gold at the end of the round.
  • At the end of the game, the person who has found the most stars overall will get to choose up to 1,000 gold total worth of event commons!

H*O*W... T*O... P*L*A*Y

  • Ten clues will be revealed on each day of the event, each one leading to a thread where one of the lost stars will be hiding.
  • You need to solve quickly, once a star has been found it will return to its proper place in the heavens and no longer be in the thread.
  • Be sure to search each page. Stars can be found in threads on the first 3 pages of each forum, and in the first 5 pages of each thread.
  • All sections of the forums are eligible for searching, this includes locked threads!
Rules
  • Follow all of the Menewsha TOS and site rules.
  • Each day you may only report 3 found stars. Posting more than 3 may result in disqualification from the rest of the game.
  • All clues that are posted without the correct form will not be counted. You may edit any mistakes, but if the edit is made after someone else has posted correctly, it will still not be counted. Attempts to argue otherwise will not be honored.
  • Please don't try and solve the clues within the thread or give other people hints for the answers. That's just no fun for people who want to solve them on their own!
  • Clues not solved before the start of the next round will be carried over.
  • Chatting and encouragement from non-players is more than welcome here, both during and between rounds.
  • Have fun!
Submitting an Answer
  • You are looking for this image:
  • To report a found star, use the following form:
    Code:
    [B][COLOR="Blue"]I helped a star get home![/COLOR][/B]
    
    [B]Clue #:[/B]
    [B]Link to post:[/B]
    [B]Thread Title:[/B]
    [B]Page # :[/B]
    [B]Post #:[/B]
  • Example form:
    Quote:
    I helped a star get home!

    Clue #: 3
    Link to post: http://www.menewsha.com/forum/showpo...69&postcount=3
    Thread Title: Star Search! - A Treasure Hunt
    Page # : 1
    Post #: 3
    Note: The actual post number should be used in the form, not the post number on that particular page. (This is different from previous versions of this game)
  • How to find the post link:
    Click on the number indicated by the pink arrow. This will bring you to a page that contains only the post that contains the start. Copy the address in the top navigation bar into the proper place on the form.

*sneaks into own event thread*

Sorry about the late start to my game, but I just got back from an anime convention and have been trying to recover a bit. xD

I will likely be trying to start the first round within the next couple of hours.

^_^ I'll be sure to give lots of warning before I open up the game.

Feel free to ask any questions about how it works in my explanation up there is confusing. xD I know it's a lot of information to take in.

Cutie- Any forum, if it follows the past events. ^^ It is too easy if it is limited to just one.

Winter: ^^; I'll try my best to live up to the example of the past times.

` s u g a r: It can be any thread in any section. But only the threads you can find in the first 3 pages of the section it's in.

Yay for clearing things up.

The game is going to have to delayed for a little because I realized I have no food for work-lunch tomorrow. =S And then I might need to have dinner. So sometime around 8 or 9 pm est is the current estimate.

The stars can be in any post on the first 5 pages. I have the ability to edit the image into whichever post I want, so it could be anywhere. :)

I'm going to begin getting things ready so expect the hunt sometime in the next 45 min to an hour!
