Hello, and welcome one and all to the amazing and bewildering scavenger hunt across the web! Once a month, I will create a multi-part hunt that will last for the duration of the month, with an amazing prize at the end of the hunt! what will the prize be? No one knows, not until the end of the spectacular hunt! could be play coins, could be codes, or maybe even just something unfathomable! Additionally, the hunt will take you to many wild and uncanny places on the world wide web! Are you feeling adventurous, curious, or just down-right bored? then join the madness of the Web-Wide Scavenger Hunt of Fun, only once a month!

Event details:
Once the month begins, I will create a puzzle that the answer to it will be found all across the internet, and I will leave hints on where you must find the puzzle pieces to solve the problem I have made for you all! However, if a puzzle is proving too hard for you, I will have hints available to you! (but be careful, the hints aren't free >:3) You may collaborate with other people if you wish, but only one person will be able to claim the prize. Additionally, please don't spoil any of the answers to anyone in this hunt, but if you think you have the correct answer, you can message me and I will confirm if you have the correct answer or not. Once the final answer to the final riddle is found (or no one finds it before the event's end), the event will end and the prize will be given to the winner. But most importantly, don't forget to have fun! (note: if not enough participants are gathered in time, the time to register will be extended by a few days. if the event still doesn't have enough participants, then everyone will be refunded)

How to enter:
All you have to do is leave a comment with your name and pay the specified PC fee to me (hey, I need to make SOME kind of profit to keep this thing running!), and you will be entered into the event! However, you may participate in the event for free if you wish, but you cannot win the big prize if you do solve the puzzle (if you solve it before anyone else, I will give you a small treat though ;) )

LIVE EVENT TAB: (this tab will be used to keep tabs on what events are live and the status on them)

November's challenge:
Fill in the blanks! the numbers indicate how many letters are in each of the words. (2) (8) (3) (10) (3) (4)
Solution:
Be thankful for everything you have

PUZZLE 1 WAS SOLVED BY @Zukrad FIRST!!!
Puzzle 1:
The answer if you want it is
everything
The smash direct that happened at the beginning of the direct was pretty sweet, and a lot of characters were mentioned! Using the names of some of these characters, create a 10-letter word out of the names of some of the characters!
Video here:

Hint 1: Free
[CHARGE=0]Use characters from the assist trophy's section[/CHARGE]

Hint 2: 5 PC
[CHARGE=5]The word is a pronoun made from 2 words[/CHARGE]

Hint 3: 10 PC
[CHARGE=10]
the first part of the word has synonyms like all, each whole, etc. (freebie: use the Y from Yuri, and a g and an n from Black knight and spring man)
[/CHARGE]

Hint 4: 25 PC
[CHARGE=25]What could it be? something, nothing, anything, MORE EXAMPLES OF WORDS THAT THAT ENDS IN THING!!![/CHARGE]
PUZZLE 2 WAS SOLVED BY @Sky FIRST!!!
Puzzle 2:
The answer if you want it is
you
This one is easy! all you have to do is read the message I'm giving you!

zhItlidee pte hf uziydoru o, dss tnfi we nhe

. . . uh, whoops. Apparently the message didn't come through in the correct way at all! looks like you will need to decode the message by rearranging the letters (and comma for some reason) to form the message!

Hint 1: Free
[CHARGE=0]The length of the words have been mixed up as well? AW, COME ON!!![/CHARGE]

Hint 2: 5 PC
[CHARGE=5]To make things simpler, here is the number of letters in the words (not in the correct order): 2, 2, 3, 3, 4, 4, 5, 6, 6. (and the comma is after the 3rd word)[/CHARGE]

Hint 3: 10 PC
[CHARGE=10]
I got a little bit of Intel on the sentence and it's order! here it is: (2) (4) (Puzzle), (3) (2) (the) (5) (word) (6)
[/CHARGE]

Hint 4: 25 PC
[CHARGE=25]Hmm, I wonder what the 5th word needed in this puzzle will be. . .[/CHARGE]
PUZZLE 1 WAS SOLVED BY @Zukrad FIRST!!!
Puzzle 3:
The Guildmaster's Guide To Ravnica, a DnD suppliment based off of the MTG plane of Ravnica is coming out this month! To celebrate, this puzzle will have you looking at MTG cards of my favorite guild; the Izzet League! Mad scientists of innovation, they create and maintain much of the technology on Ravnica. The word is 3 letters long, and each of these cards will have that word in common (ex. if the word was twice, all would feature something like actual doubling, 2 of something, 2 in the converted mana cost or stats, etc.)

Card 1: Card #52/259
Card 2:
Schismotivate_art.PNG
Schismotivate_art.PNG
Schismotivate_art.PNG

Card 3: The only Legendary weird to ever be made
Card 4: A signal that draws cards at instant speed

Hint 1: Free
[CHARGE=0]The cards are from the sets Guildpact, Return to Ravnica, and Guilds of Ravnica. I would recomend going to a website that stores old spoiled cards (like Mythic Spoiler or MTGGoldfish) and looking at the red and/or blue cards with a dragon symbol behind the textbox.[/CHARGE]

Hint 2: 5 PC
[CHARGE=5]
The card number can be found in the bottom-left corner of every card, look at the image name (or just try to find the card based on the art), go to the MTG gatherer and enter "legendary" under type and "weird" under subtype, and read the text of all the uncommons (silver colored symbol) that are both red and blue in Return to Ravnica.
[/CHARGE]

Hint 3: 10 PC
[CHARGE=10]
The names of the cards are Quadrisuplicate, Schismotivate, Melek,Thou Izzet Paragon, and Thoughtflare. Now get to examining!
[/CHARGE]

Hint 4: 25 PC
[CHARGE=25]The thing that they all have in common with each other is that they all have four in there! but I thought the word was 3 letters. . . ?[/CHARGE]

Puzzle 4:
Hope everyone had a great thanksgiving weekend! stuffing your face full of food, spending time with family and friends, and much more was to be had this weekend, so I hope you enjoyed it all! To accommodate this, This puzzle will be based on thanksgiving! Find the hidden messages in this paragraph, and you will have your word!

to whomever shall read th following,
here lies a message to read at the ed of thanksgiving.
although the End o te holiday can be sad, seeing family come and Go,
never forget the Happiness shared and the wrd of one another, and
keep your spirits high, as It s Time for christmas to come in fll power!

Hint 1: Free
[CHARGE=0]Huh, this message has a weird look to it. . .[/CHARGE]

Hint 2: 10 PC
[CHARGE=10]Try looking at all of he capitalized letters? [/CHARGE]

Hint 3: 25 PC
[CHARGE=25]The beginning letters of each row look like they wanna say something!
[/CHARGE]

Hint 4: 50 PC
[CHARGE=50]There's a lot of misspelled words here. . . maybe it's a sentence![/CHARGE]

I just realized that we're running out of time for puzzles in november, so here's 6 letters to unscramble into 2 words!

Whoa, what a cool idea! Looks super original and fun! I’ll definitely think about entering! :D
 
100 PC is like way too much in my opinion. I'll think about entering though! :D

He did say you could participate for free, though. Plus, he mentioned that the prizes are something well worth earning, like codes or more pc.

Oh hell yeah of course I'll join, it's against my nature to not join into something like this xD Might not pay though depending. Might wait one or 2 months to see what kinda prizes there are first (Since 100pc is quite a lot).

I'd also be totally down for making a hunt or 2 :eyes: I want to see what yours are like though, you've got me highly interested :p

EDIT: People seem to not like the steep cost, so I'm going to make the entry fee half off! November's hunt will be only 50 PC now!
 
  • #11
OK I will enter then! Do I send the PC now?
 
  • #12
Yes you do, and I will mark you down once I receive the PC
 
  • #13
Done! I sent the 50 PC.
 
  • #14
Added! hope you have fun in the hunt!
 
  • #15
Good choice with the cost. I can understand why it was so high, but if you're wanting more people, if it's cheaper a lot more people will pay, and in turn, you'd get more pc from more people entering then from a small handful of people.

Welcome to how to business ;P

Sending the pc over now!
