Contest #34

[MooL]

This contest beings Dec 8, 2006. Yaaaay!

This contest is closed. =)

==============================
Winners
1st place: 6th Division for correctly matching all of the letters to their locations and unscrambling the words. >> 5000 points

2nd place: 3rd Division for correctly unscrambling the word. >> 2500

12th Division and 8th Division >> 1000 points for participating.

==============================
C46 members (Admins, S-Mods, Ai) are ineligible to participate. The winning division will receive something very special from C46 <3

==============================
First letter: "S"
First hint: 02.22.06 I never knew Sumpf played World of Warcraft: The Burning Crusade. Did you?
==============================

CONTEST FAQ:
1. The object of this contest is to collect all the letters of a "phrase" (which is the final answer) by following a scavenger hunt throughout CB (profiles, posts, etc.) by hints. Each letter is accompanied by another hint which leads you to the next letter.

2. The letters are what you are looking for. However, each division must also state where they found the letters.

3. The divisions who complete this contest win. I'm not really concerned with time.

4. There are 19 letters. Again, the first hint = "S" is one of them.

5. 19 hints w/ 19 corresponding hints = 4 words. Divisions must unscramble these words to get final answer (which is a phrase).

6. If you cheat, you are disqualified.
==============================
CONTEST LOG

I would like to remind all the divisions that a contest letter is always accompanied by a hint (except for the END, of course). So, be careful what you're collecting.

Also: We C46 are funny little bastards. At this point, there are TONS of things to throw you off. However, any changes from THIS (as of Dec 11) point will have no affect on the answer. The only changes would be to make things more obvious to the divisions that are struggling.

[edit]

WARNING: Several divisions are picking up random letters. This may be because of the very first Gotei Contest that DB hosted back in like, May. Dudes, if the scavenger hunt isn't leading you to those letters, just don't use them!

DragonBlade:
My hints to you guys is that some "puzzles" may provide more than 1 letter and not every "puzzle" will give links.

[Ai]

It's to get it ready and organised for when it gets going..

And c46 collab = instead of just one c46 member creating the contest and running it all c46 members will be participating in creating it so they cannot participate in the contest it'self..^^

[DragonBlade]

Dunno if it would start tomorrow but give mooly a break! College apps + midterms/Finals = :(

[MooL]

Go for it, guys!!!

[Fidchell]

what kind of contest is this....

[KeitaroAZN™]

i dont really get how this contest works.... sry

[Sandal Hat]

It seems our friend MooL has provided us with an ample supply of instructions, but has seemingly forgot to explain just what exactly this contest is about.

[Kefka]

Looks like another evil scavenger hunt type contest

[MooL]

Just do it.

Well, I like to call it: MooL's awesome contest!!11 but it is also known by its lesser name: CB Scramble Scavenger Hunt.


Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay for it!

[Kefka]

Grrr...I was on a roll for a bit and now I got stuck on one of the clues. How many letters are there altogether by the way?

[DragonBlade]

Dont bother asking me for help since I have no idea what mool did xD

[Thing]

.....

I have no idea what's goin on right there...
it's a hard to understand scavenger hunt... If we have liek smart peoplz in 11th then maybe they b play.

I dun no, im bad w/this kind of stuf!
look, im getting dumer by the 2nd!

[Sora]

Hmmm... Let's see if someone of my division knows how to do something. Let's revive the Contest#34 thread :)

Where is the first hint? =/

[Kriceº]

I don't understand a single bit .. =/

[Ai]

Just a bit of details to the contest to help people if they don't understand it.

- It's pretty much exactly like the scavenger hunt that was contest #1 and another contest we've had since.
- The hints And the letters are hidden together somewhere like a post, a thread, A signature, An avatar, A usernote, A skin, A icon, A reputation..you get the idea the hints are wherever Mool put them which is probably everywhere.
- You follow the hints and then when you get the entire word you PM the word plus the links to each Letter to prove that you did it.

[Kriceº]

Means you need to find the all the letters to get the correct word ?.. kinda cool :D
What does MooL mean by the hint and the Prompt?

[Ai]

The prompt i guess is the letter...

[Fidchell]

i cannot even begin to tell you how much mool fails. lawl

[Shinomori]

Dont bother asking me for help since I have no idea what mool did xD

OMG HALPMEH HALPMEH TICHMEH TICHMEH PWNZORZ PLZ DB!!oneoneeleven!!11!

lol.

Anyways...I'm confused to crap.

But I think I have a clue.

GO ME.

[Elocin]

Thanks, MooL. You just did an awesome job at confusing me. :)

[Princess Tofu]

=\ I won the first one. Its exactly like this, so itll be a piece of cake. XD

[Fidchell]

lol the first one was hella easy. this one..well....its different...its MooL..and MooL dear is not the most sane of people.

[teddyen]

not another one!!! T_T
*bangs head*

lolz... time to get the brains working >.<
hehe, can you update the div in the lead is in clue what like what DB did last time ^^

[~*StÓÑy RèL0ÂÐeD™]

MooL dear is not the most sane of people.

lol....i get wad u mean... maybe she'll explain it better when she gets back

[MooL]

What..this is not that difficult. In fact, this is EASIER than DB's scavenger hunts! How can you guys not believe me? Seriously, I'm the one that always complains how hard the hints are!

THE FIRST POST HAS A FRACTION OF THE ANSWER.

Ugh, check my first post for a FAQ, ok.

[Sandal Hat]

Tell them what you want them to do. :p

[Sandal Hat]

Not everyone is as smart as you are MooL :/

[Tanya]

Firstly, thanks MooL for the more in-depth instructions =o

Secondly, I have 2 questions:
- Do you want the hint that is given or just the location of the letter?

- How many words are there in the end?

[Kefka]

Secondly, I have 2 questions:
- Do you want the hint that is given or just the location of the letter?


I was going to ask something similiar, do you just need the location of the letter and what clue it shows? Also, do we have to have them in some order, or can we just have them in a scattered list?

[Ai]

have them in the order that the word is.

[MooL]

I want the location of the letter and how you got there.

[Tanya]

- How many words are there in the end?
:)

[Kaze]

And...if you find the same letter twice, does the second one count?

[MooL]

The amount of letters is stated in the first post, y'know.

There are 13 letters.

And if you find two of the same letters....isn't that kind of an obvious question? =\

[Kaze]

And if you find two of the same letters....isn't that kind of an obvious question? =\

No, it isnt. >_>

[MooL]

Okay, how about the word: APPLE.

Without both of those two P's, it'd only be APLE, right? Maybe you need both of those letters.

[DragonBlade]

There is now more than 13 letters. Good Luck.

[VipER]

what u mean by more than 13 letters DB? i thought it was only 13 letters?

[MooL]

It is now officially a DB and MooL collab contest! There are now 19 letters.

[Taki~]

great now it became hard then it all really was. ok so now we have to find 19 letters not 13.

[Hits]

Give us more clues. PLEASE.

A question. Are there false clues/links/letters in the hunt?

[VipER]

lolz..19 letters then...so do all of them is used or partial of them..

[DragonBlade]

Its pretty easy, I would rate MooL's "section" easy-medium, I would rate mine, hellish >_>

[Tanya]

It is now officially a DB and MooL collab contest! There are now 19 letters.
And all these letters are linked to each other, yes?
((Just want to confirm =p))

[DragonBlade]

yeah, you unscramble them. Have fun :P

[Hotaru]

You are SO Evil DB... Its unbelievable!

[MooL]

Give us more clues. PLEASE.

A question. Are there false clues/links/letters in the hunt?Muahahahhahaa


Does that answer your question? ;3

[RenRen]

lol @ mool's evil laugh

19 letters, how many words? ^^





*realises that mool probably wont tell and she would just go 'muahahaha' again*

:p

[Hotaru]

There are false clues and stuff that would lead you to dead ends (judging from mooL's laugh lol)

[Kefka]

Question...

Are DB's clues a continuation of mools so they lead into one another, or are DB's just scattered?

[Jasper]

They are a continuation. However as indicated by MooL there are chances you'd come across fake clues ;).

[Hits]

I hate fake clues so much. T_T Tis the season to be generous and giving. This is none of the two.

[MooL]

'Tis the season to be JOLLY

not whiny :3

FA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA

[Hotaru]

Evil MooL-y... Evil Evil...

Haha, this is getting intersting tho... altho, we have stalled...

[Ai]

'Tis the season to be JOLLY

not whiny :3

FA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA

Bah humbug..:p...

[Ushio Amamiya]

[Pie <3]

ZOMFG NON DIVISION MEMBER POSTING IN CONTEST DIVISION :O *stabs*

[DragonBlade]

[Kefka]

Send in what you have, the one with the most letters will get some consolation prize. but if you do win, you will get something grand :D

You mean send in by the 15th, right? Thats when the due date is.

[DragonBlade]

Yup

[MooL]

Good lord, nobody is going to get the last letter. ;_;

DB made it ridiculously hard!

[Kefka]

Could you do an update log to see how far people are in the contest? I doubt anyone is near 19,(if they are, I'm charging them of cheating. Cause this is hard lol ), so Im curious to know what is the highest # so far?

[Fidchell]

does the installation of "zoinks" or watever...affect the clues what so ever?

[DragonBlade]

Nope but it did make it harder :D

[Shinji]

Is the due date still December 15th?

[~*StÓÑy RèL0ÂÐeD™]

Any Division submitted aready??

[MooL]

No divisions have submitted anything.

Remember, you gotta PM MEEEEEEEE (MooL) not DB, but if you want, you can PM both ;3

[SpongebobSquarepants]

Meh, it's not due for what? 15 hours? I think I'll put it off for another few :D

[DragonBlade]

Procastinators :P. Anyway MooL, no one PMed me yet :P

[SpongebobSquarepants]

[Rayster]

[MooL]

Uhh..the contest is not really over. I got a total of FOUR submissions (which leaves 9 of you left).

This contest is extended until Monday, Dec 18.

You guys need hints or something? =\

Also, none of the divisions who submitted had all of the letters or unscrambled the letters...at all. =\

[Tanya]

Yeah. A hint for every letter would be nice.
rofl xD

THANKS, MooL =o

[MooL]

Wtf, Hitsu. I just gave you the first five.

Find the rest yourself plz.

I may add the next five tomorrow. The last five are probably the hardest. =\

[DragonBlade]

Why bother giving them the first 10 letters? those were too easy.

[Hotaru]

mooL: Tu es EVIL!!! God, seriously, I think I may have to force chnge your name to "EvilMooL"... Damn, this is hard... With all the fake clues as well... sheesh...

[MooL]

@DB: Why bother? Because I got four submissions and not one of them got it right or even tried to unscramble it!

Next five letters:

From Sandal Hat's "i love chord," go to chord's profile. (He is a member of CB)
6.) "Y" is found here (http://forums.bleachportal.net/member.php?u=12300) In chord's profile, "GFX," "SOTW," "Ouran High Host Club," and his avatar refer to SOTW #45

7.) "O" is found here (http://forums.bleachportal.net/showthread.php?t=19524)
"O" in Ouran. Link takes you to MooL's intro thread.

10.) "D" is found here (http://forums.bleachportal.net/showthread.php?t=11806)


There, now all divisions have the first 10 letters. Come on guys, I know you can do this!!

[Kefka]

So much for our lead lol. Tell us something we didn't know. :P

[SpongebobSquarepants]

@DB: Why bother? Because I got four submissions and not one of them got it right or even tried to unscramble it!


I tried to unscramble it :(

[Kefka]

Its hard to unscramble when you dont have all the letters....

[SpongebobSquarepants]

Well I unscrambled what I had and just kinda guessed what the answer would have been. I think I was right or at least close.

[MooL]

Puhlease, Araharu. With the first 10, you don't got it? =O

Next 5 (maybe?!):

Following the "d" in Maxi???'s first post, you are lead to Ai's profile.
11.) "A" and "i" = Ai's name are the two letters found here (http://forums.bleachportal.net/member.php?u=17301)
The next hint is in his signature "read the rules" and "please read" which leads you to Club Bleach's official Rules

12.) "Y" found here (http://forums.bleachportal.net/showthread.php?t=8101). The link in the "y" brings to a fake wikipedia article for Darren337 and the hint at the bottom says "always listen to darren." This link is meant to lead you to Darren's profile.

13. "A" found here (http://forums.bleachportal.net/z/profile.php?z-profile=Darren337). Notice the highlighted "a" in Darren's profile picture and also the word "MoL" in his Gender category. This hint is supposed to lead you to MooL's profile.

14.) "R" found here (http://forums.bleachportal.net/member.php?u=1794). Hah, it's not a joke! Totally used. Anyway, the hint is also obvious. DB's hints began at Darren's profile.

15.) AHAHA, not telling you. There are only five letters left. You guys can do this!!

[Kefka]

Gah! I think I know what the answer is. I just got to find 2 more letters to back it up.

[Ai]

/me wants to change his avatar...:(..to this...

[Tanya]

the contest is over. so i wonder if any div found all the letters. seeing how the contest is over can you tell us were all the letters were. please.
We have 5 more hours if I'm not mistaken.

[MooL]

rofl, nobody PM'd me the answers.

You guys only have five letters left HURRY UP GEEZ.

Ai: wait a day, ok? ;3

[Kefka]

I did....you never got it?

[MooL]

two divs have submitted at this time.

And somebody got it right! =O

[SpongebobSquarepants]

8th Division sticks with their original PM I suppose. Not that it helps in the slightest seeing as you gave us more letters than we had in the first place :(

[Fidchell]

HE LIES. WE HAVE YET TO DiE.

[MooL]

ok, since no other divisions have submitted (and I think you're all pansies!)

We have..two winners...

Who will be announced later this evening.

OH NOES!

[SpongebobSquarepants]

8th Division is not a pansy. We are all just busy right now. Real life tends to get a bit hectic near the holidays for most people. I know mines been crazy as hell.

[Ai]

/me changes his avatar with strong relief...

Congrats to the winning div..

[Kefka]

*waits for results*

............

Who won? LOL

[DragonBlade]

I dont even know who won xD

[Kefka]

Will we ever find out?

[MooL]

Uhh. yeah? =)

6th and 3rd Divisions were the only ones who got the unscrambled letters correct: Happy Holidays From DB though only 6th matched all of the letter locations correctly.

6th Division comes out on top with first place, earning 5000 points. 3rd comes in second place with 2500 points.

And the following divisions earn 1000 points for participating:
12th Division
8th Division
