Plan of Action!


The concept is simple: Solve the clues and find the gifts. The clues? Not always so simple >:]


Each day a round of clues will be posted, solve the clue correctly and you'll find a present in the thread that it leads to :O

That's only half of it though, you have to get back here and post where you found the present before anyone else does!

Where do I look?

Think you know where a clue is leading to?


3 is the magic number!

The present could be hidden in any thread (including locked ones) on the first THREE PAGES of any forum.

It will be somewhere in the first THREE PAGES of the thread.

If you don't see the image in the thread's first 3 pages, you're looking in the wrong place or someone's found it already and the image has been removed!


How do I win?


Read it all!


To win a round you have to correctly solve a clue and post where you found it, in this thread (using the form and getting everything right) before anyone else does.

If you mess something up with the entry form (explained in 4th post) or someone posts before you then your entry for that round won't count.

If you post first but you've already won your maximum amount for that game then your answer will be skipped over and the round prize will go to the next person.

Each round is generally 10 clues. You can win a maximum of 3 times in each round, to makes things fair for everyone.

If you solve clues but never manage to post any first don't worry, everyone who joins in will get a prize at the end of the event just for participating!

Clue-solving prizes will normally be given out once the round has finished, but you might sometimes have to wait til the next day if I'm busy!

How to play


Every day a set of clues will be posted along with that day's image to look for. This is what you have to do then:

Read the clues!

Hunt round the site for thread titles that fit in with the clues.

Check threads where you think the image might be. Don't forget it will only be in the first 3 pages of a thread, and the thread will only be in the first 3 pages of the forum.





How to submit your answer

You need to link to the POST where the image is, not just the thread. To do that, right-click on the number shown in the top right-hand corner of the post.


In the dropdown menu select copy link location then paste that link into the form shown below. Alternatively. just click on the post's number so the individual post opens up into another window, and paste the URL into the clue form.



Please use the form below when you want to post a clue that you've found.





Clue form
Code:
[COLOR="purple"][b]Clue #:[/b]
[b]Link to post:[/b]
[b]Thread Title:[/b]
[b]Post #:[/b][/COLOR]
Please don't edit your form once you've posted it, that will disqualify you from the round.

Rules and Guidelines
  • Follow the main site rules at all times, located HERE
  • You can only win a maximum of 3 times per round, to give everyone a fair chance. If you post more than the allowed amount of correct answers, the extra ones will not be counted.
  • Don't edit your clue form once you've posted it.
  • Please don't try and solve the clues within the thread, don't spoil things for the other competitors.
  • Don't argue if your post is disqualified because you didn't follow the specified format.
  • If 2 people post the same find at the same time the first post wins, unless the first post is incorrect in any way.
  • Friendly competitiveness is encouraged, but don't be a little bitch if someone beats you, or I'll be a BIG bitch >:]
  • It's fine to chat here too, either during or in between rounds.
  • Most importantly, have fun!

I meant plan out the clues.
The writing is probably what would take the longest.
