Re: Mineral Hunt 2

[Alukard]

ahhh, no drawing competition? :upset:

[EatMeReturns]

iight. i hope i win :D

[BirdofPrey]

5:00 AM !!!! AW HELL NO

Can't ya make it a little latter

[EatMeReturns]

its 6:00 pm for me :D
anywho, could you maybe put like a description of this and my risk tourny thing on the main page? that would totally draw more ppl to both competitions. thanks!

[Alukard]

Patience :) A writing comp is overdue, and we can have a drawing one later too!

Writing is my spasialty! you should have an aword for the funnyest forign spelling! (no spell check)

[CodyFallsForth]

5am!?

No wayyyyyy am i getting up that early. I woke up at 5am yesterday for soccer.

[Alukard]

lol someone is going to be lucky.

[Fenix]

5:30 for me....Weird....

A lot of people seem to live in the same time zone. I'm too lazy to figure out what one though.

[tweakismyname]

9am huh.... ill be there for like 10 mins then i g2g to work

[BirdofPrey]

Damn where you live SC2? Scandinavia?

[Fenix]

Exactly opposite lol. I think he lives in Australia.

[-LT-]

Can't wait! :thumbup:

[BirdofPrey]

OOPS LOL misread the timestamp. HE HE maybe we should switch to the 24 hour clock to prevent mishaps. We don't need to bomd something 12 hours too early or 12 hours too late. Its bad for business

[Protosscommander]

Uhmm ??? i just want to ask if what s this Mineral Hunt All about, because i dont really know what it is, please somebody explain it to me ???
peace :)

[Protosscommander]

Ah! i see okey :) Thanks :)

[Fenix]

Heh heh, I love your post count.

[Protosscommander]

Yah lol, now its no more, hehehe actuually lol, i took a screen shots as a remembrance :)
Protosscommander 666 :)

PEACE :)

[JBL]

it's 12pm for me.. aka in 4 hours.. I'll try to be there.

[kuvasz]

[...] I hope it's a lot easier than last time...

I wasn't here back then but I checked the thread of the previous hunt and the prizes are considerably higher now so I think it'll be harder. I hope so - I won't be around when it starts and would like to get in the top 10 :)

[-LT-]

Just two hours to go... :) Get ready people! :sleeping:

[DontHate]

umm... like where does the mineral hunt start? do we search around the site or something? or is it like a riddle.

is the first clue posted in this topic?

[Light]

yes, kinda...he's gonna post something like ''look at the end'' or something, then you search the forum and look for stuff, maybe something he said, some picture, etc.

wow, green is cool

[DontHate]

oh, lol. sounds fun.

[Joneagle_X]

EES A RACE EES A RACE!!!

I'm WEENING! I'm WEENING!

[kuvasz]

Do we give the final answer to sc2forums via PM?

[Unentschieden]

Bah I´ll never learn the difference between am and pm... But this promises to be interesting.

[tweakismyname]

1 more hour.

[MarineCorp]

Sorry for asking dumb question but i don't get whats going on, when is this mineral hunt and what does GMT stands for i am very confused :-[

[Unentschieden]

GMT would be, I believe, General Median Time. The median is a imaginary line that runs from the geographic northpole to the geographic southpole through a Observatory in London (does anyone know it´s name?). Timezones are calculated from there, GMT+1 means you are one hour "ahead".

[Joneagle_X]

Greenwich??????

[MarineCorp]

Oh interesting so its like a equator since it's a imaginary line? thank you for the info :good:

[Unentschieden]

I looked around a bit. GMT actually means Greenwich Mean Time, sorry for my mistake on that.

http://wwp.greenwichmeantime.com/

Has all the stuff you might want to know about it. That site works even better than the one linked in the OP post since it gives your and GMT time as well as time in "normal" and am/pm format.

[-LT-]

15 more minutes!!! :o

[Light]

damn, i thought it was greenwich meridian time.
im so nervous, lol.

[MarineCorp]

AH!! what is this mineral hunt thing??? when is it?? is Sc2forum going to post a riddle or something!! thanks for the post by the way Unetschieden ^_^

[Light]

i think he is gonna post something....yes...i think....i hope....i want!.....i want to believe that!!!! im just so freaking nervous...

[-LT-]

Here we go!!!

[JBL]

kk it's 4pm now.

[-LT-]

Nothing yet. :(

[CodyFallsForth]

Hmm, it IS 2AM there.


Where sc2forums is i mean ;)

[-LT-]

Maybe he's fallen asleep?

[CodyFallsForth]

Which is what I am beginning to think. Should we all sit around and wait or ask to postpone it?

[LordKerwyn]

Well he isnt onliine.....?

[-LT-]

He's offline. I'll wait more because it's 6pm where I am ;)

[Unentschieden]

It would be real cheap if that would be already part of the hunt...

[CodyFallsForth]

I vote he has fallen asleep and we postpone it 24 hours.

[-LT-]

No! I can't be here then I have school. >:(

[CodyFallsForth]

Oh wow i do too. I forgot it was sunday haha.

[-LT-]

I don't wanna go to school. :no: He isn't online yet...
Maybe he's in the bathroom or something? Come on post a clue!

[-LT-]

I can't figure out that thing in the cookie.

[TerranGod]

cookies, cookies, fresh made cookies for sale..>?

[JBL]

GO GO GO it's a marine what do i do?

[Alukard]

i am stuck on the third clue O.o

[Light]

i dont get clue 2!

[-LT-]

hahaha. Read first post for the clue. LT, replace the xxxxx with the answer ;)
I still don't get it.

[JBL]

it's all about when he said "GO! GO! GO!"

it's all about the starcraft unit who says that.

[Alukard]

whats the clue for 6? >.<

[Light]

i dont get it either

[proswimma]

im still stuck on clue 2 :-\

[JBL]

who else has finished?

[proswimma]

i dont get it...vote once a day?

[Light]

i finished! this was soo fun!

[JBL]

i finished! this was soo fun!


I hope you are 2nd.. which would make me 1st :)

[Joneagle_X]

I'm third! :D

I would've been first if it hadn't been grand central station around here....

BRRRRIINGG BRRRRRIINGG

"Hello? GO THE F*CK AWAY!!! WhaT? No, I'm doing HOMEWORK!"

[Light]

omg i started at like 4.30! omg. same problems as joneagle.

[JBL]

I'm third! :D

I would've been first if it hadn't been grand central station around here....

BRRRRIINGG BRRRRRIINGG

"Hello? GO THE F*CK AWAY!!! WhaT? No, I'm doing HOMEWORK!"


hahahaha lol.. well maybe I'm not the first either..

I got stuck a bit on the 5th


omg i started at like 4.30! omg. same problems as joneagle.


I think it started after 4:30.. the admin wasn't there.

[proswimma]

good Lord i am stupid..

[Light]

as i look back, i have no idea how i managed to solve some of these clues. im just that miraculous.

edit: @ proswimma- i thought that too...just keep trying.

[Unentschieden]

Yeah but it was fun. Wonder how I placed...

Urk I made a mistake... hope I´m not disqualiefied...

[Light]

i opened like 200 tabs...

[Scarecrow]

Finished. It was fun.

[JBL]

i opened like 200 tabs...


hahaha yeah I had a lot too.

[MarineCorp]

Where are the other clues ??? i only can see clue 1 :'(
Why why why why -_-;

[JBL]

Where are the other clues ??? i only can see clue 1 :'(
Why why why why -_-;



GO GO GO


that was the first hint, you gotta find which starcraft unit says that.

[Unentschieden]

No it isn´t. The first clue is in the 1st post in this Thread. Show some sportsmanship please.

[Light]

omg JBL, so evil. just wants the prize for himself, tries to decieve the others...to have more time, put them in a dead end...

[ShdwyTemplar]

Woot just finished. Rather simple imo but fun nonetheless.

[Joneagle_X]

@ Unentschieden , who is that directed at? Lol.... if at JBL he was just helping....

So far (probably):

1. JBL
2. GM_k
3. Joneagle_X
4. Untentschieden
5. Scarecrow
6. ShdwyTemplar

[proswimma]

clue 5 is hard...

[Unentschieden]

It was for JBL since his "hint" is misleading. Also no unit makes GO GO GO (in the german version ;)).

[Wlck742]

Finished. I didn't find out about this until an hour after it started. Pretty easy, if you ask me.

[JBL]

Joneagle: I'm sure someone (maybe more than one) finished it before me but they are just quiet.

GM_k: LOL yeah.. but I find it funny to tell them that the clue is Go Go Go because that's what I though for a second when I started. hahaha

[Alukard]

O.o finished i have! Though i still had to check if i wrote the right answear, since im forign i never heard of some of the stuff in this puzzles, But this was fun!

[BirdofPrey]

6 makes no sense

[proswimma]

i am stuck on 6 as well and i agree that it makes NO sense...

[Wlck742]

I would help you people, but I forgot too.

[Unentschieden]

Well it is easy... but the answers are so painfully obvious you´ll miss them when staring at them.

[Wlck742]

Look around, lol. If you're a simple person like me, you should finish easily.

[WonderBoy]

yay! that was fun! :)

[EatMeReturns]

AUGH IM STUCK ON SIX LOLWTFBBQ I CANT FIND ANYTHING ABOUT FENIX!

[Wlck742]

I love reading all these posts about how hard it is when it's so easy you'll start crying.

Okay, I'll stop tempting you people from now on.

[Alukard]

you evil man >=3

[Unentschieden]

Remember that the Hunt is on and about this site. You don´t HAVE to use google to finish. You don´t even have to use search.

Feel free to do so though it might help.

[BirdofPrey]

FIN
\
Actually I did have to search the hp of larva and lurkers.  I forgot I did

[Light]

this hunt seems so easy once its finished.

[Joneagle_X]

@ JBL , I doubt they just didn't post. I'll bet you're the first and my order is correct. #1 it wasn't posted until almost 4:30 and it took everyone about 20 minutes....

Sounds about right to me!

7. Wl742
8. Alukard
9. WonderBoy
10. BirdofPrey
11. Markus
12. Tigerman

[EatMeReturns]

WHERE IS NUMBER 6? I WENT TO THE GUYS PROFILE, BUT FOUND NOTHING! AUGH!

[Wlck742]

Actually it took me about 5 mins.

[Tigerman]

finished at last ;D

[Unentschieden]

It´s best to hide in plain sight.

[Wlck742]

You don't need to go to the profile itself. Don't know if I should be telling you that.

[Tigerman]

so when will be the results?

[Joneagle_X]

I just think it's funny how Fenix got used!!!

@ Tigerman , when sc2forums wakes up ;)

[BirdofPrey]

I wonder how many PMs Fenix got from people asking him the answer as if he was a guru

[Shadow Templar]

For some reason I now hate Fenix...don't know why. It can't be clue 6....nooo not the clue im stuck on at all. Thats just illogical.

[DontHate]

hmm... i'm on clue 2 now and i'ts confusing.
sweet i got it. now this ones strange... hmm...

[Seradin]

umh i just got to clue 5 and i followed it but there is no clue 6..

[DontHate]

Nvm... i got it. that's sneaky btw.

[Seradin]

Oh i see!, i read the whole thing thinking it would be a clue inside of it or something, well i finished probably didnt get any good placement though.

[DontHate]

hmm... i'm on the last one... but it's quite confusing.


wooooo finnaly finished. i feel quite happy about myself now. it was fun.

[EatMeReturns]

AUGH I DONT KNOW WHERE TO GO ABOUT HIM! ASDF AESDRY SADTRG ADFH

[BirdofPrey]

When you figure it out you are going to put your head through a wall

[ssjfox]

Well I'm done but I wish I had known about this when it first started, I thought it was pretty easy it only took me about 15 20 minutes I might have mad the top ten :(

[EatMeReturns]

i wish som1 would give me another hint about clue 6...

[Wlck742]

check the members section

[EatMeReturns]

i already did, but i will again...

[JBL]

Hey you shouldn't give hints.. it's way funnier when you do it by yourself.

[Joneagle_X]

Just do the first step of #6. Don't look too FAR into it. ;)

The link is aROUND there somewhere.

[Fenix]

Well, I found the last clue. But I can't get the first.


This happened to me last time....

[Joneagle_X]

ROFLMAO

Nice. Especially considering its located near you. ;);)

Cookies! ANYONE? Cookies??

[Seradin]

yeh when you finally do get it you smack your self at how easy it really was lol

[Fenix]

=P
That was stupid. I just figured it out
Now I'm stuck on the second clue.

Damn you alarm clock!! (It didn't go off, I'm 2.5 hours late)

[EatMeReturns]

im going to go cry in a corner now, because of how obvious the last clue was. jesus christ. (i finished)

[capthavic]

Man I must suck cause I'm stuck on #2. Can I get a hint?

[-LT-]

I solved all but I've reached my PM limit per hour :(

[Fenix]

I haven't. If you help me out.....
<.<
>.>

[MarineCorp]

O.k i know what exactly what to do now ^_^ i thank the person who helped me what to do

......I'm stuck on clue 2

[Fenix]

No joke

[-LT-]

I sent cs2forum an email at starcraft2forum@gmail.com Does that count?

[MarineCorp]

I think i know exactly what to do....i typed in the site replacing the xxxxxx with GOGOGO and i see a index...i do not see a clue whatsoever...I need help if its not cheating :-[

[capthavic]

I give up can someone please tell me the answer to #2 so I can get some peace of mind.

[kuvasz]

# 6 was annoying! Damn how I didn't figure it out sooner :(
Next one should be a lot harder to give everyone a better chance at winning so the top 10 wouldn't be filled in the first 20 minutes or so.

[Fenix]

Ha ha.....Once I got question two, I cruised right through it.


People are gonna hate me now.

[MarineCorp]

Oh My Gosh vote once a day to find the way LOL!! AH!! what the heck!!

[Seradin]

lol i liked the fact that you were part of it, should have been easy for you >.< could have just skipped right to 6.

[Fenix]

Except for the sixth clue.....O_o.

But all the others were rather easy I thought. Guess it takes a certain kind of screwed up logic.

[Lemmy]

Fenix ur box is full

[Fenix]

It shouldn't be. Be right back, I'll go clean it.

[Unentschieden]

Oh My Gosh vote once a day to find the way LOL!! AH!! what the heck!!

A not so cleverly disguised way to get more votes ;).

[Seradin]

lol did anyone click, you were forced to vote?, anyways were top 1 now lol

[Fenix]

Ok, I pruned it.....I need to talk to the admin about that, Hyperions are supposed to get unlimited.

[Lemmy]

Anyway i guess it doesnt matter now... that ive won! weeee

[MarineCorp]

-_-; i'm not really good at this kind of stuff...-.-;

I need help again im still stuck on clue 2 :-[

[Unentschieden]

replace the xxxxx with the answer and enter it into your adress bar.

[MarineCorp]

I did....it was the first one that i typed on the adress bar :(

My mistake i think i put Starcraft first in the adress bar...'vote once a day to find the way'...i have to wait for another day to get to the next clue.... -_-;

[Seradin]

did you get the right answer?

[MarineCorp]

..Eh??? i got it wrong.. :upset:

[-LT-]

#6 was so easy! I did it in 5 seconds It was so obvious!

[Lemmy]

It aint that easy... for me it wasnt haha.

[Fenix]

I just think it's funny how Fenix got used!!!


hahaha, that sounds so dirty....lol


T_T

sc2forums actually sent me a PM apologizing.

[Joneagle_X]

nice.. you got a pity PM :-p

Much lube ;)

[Lemmy]

So, whos won so far?

[Seradin]

rofl they should send you some extra minerals. as a present, or the new mothership pet.. whitch everyone wants lol

Edit. 100th Post!!, yay!

[Shadow Templar]

Ugh, finally got it. Is there a way to confirm he got the PM? I was doing it on 2 screens and I think i might have exited out the Pm when I closed the one screen....stupid Vista....

[Lemmy]

Then send another one. nothing to loose. He aint banning you just cos u wanna be certain... hmm now that you mention it... I hve my own doubts.

[BirdofPrey]

I am all for the top ten to get a MS or maybe the choice between Thor and a MS. Top 5 get both

[Seradin]

lol and everyone else gets a probe, while were here can someone tell me if you can have more then one pet.?

[MarineCorp]

Do i have to wait the next day to answer clue 2 again?

[Seradin]

If you already answered it then you should just be able to put in the password. and goto question 3.

[MarineCorp]

But i typed in G**** (without the *) and it still doesn't work :(

[Seradin]

hmm maybe its not a cap for the first letter.

[Unentschieden]

It didn´t work for me too at first. try around a bit until it fits.

[MarineCorp]

I tried that already..probably this Mineral Hunt doesn't like me :o

I'm trying....it still doesn't work :-[

WOOF WOOF!!
No, stay Mineral Hunt stay!

[FlyingTiger]

lol i missed it nooooooo

[MarineCorp]

I do not know what to do in Clue 2.....AH!!!! i typed in g**** loads of times and it still doesn't work!
Unentsheiden did you typed G**** or g**** (without the *)

[Unentschieden]

G, also I think it needs the "index" part. :\ Hope that didn´t spoil anyone.

[Lemmy]

instead of the xxxxxxxxxxx place the missing part

[MarineCorp]

??? what missing part?

[Alukard]

th
lol i missed it nooooooo
there there...its ok, :powerup:

[MarineCorp]

I'm pretty damn annoyed now....i think i have to wait for the next day is it this mineral hunt still on in the next day?

[-LT-]

I think it is.

[Fenix]

You don't have to wait....

[Seradin]

so when will we be getting our minerals since i didnt place anywere i get 1,000 i think..

[Wlck742]

Assuming I am 7th, I get 5000. Which to me is quite a lot.

[Seradin]

lol i wish i had a place.

[zeratul11]

15000 minerals.. how did i miss this. =\

artwork contest etc should have a prize similar to this. ^^

[rAInMo9]

[JBL]

15000 minerals.. how did i miss this. =\

[ShasOkais]

Do i have to wait for a reply P F?

[ImaGiNe.]

Missed this by six hours... Fun stuff though!

[Fenix]

I think I've pissed off quite a few people.....

[FlyingTiger]

I'm pretty damn annoyed now....i think i have to wait for the next day is it this mineral hunt still on in the next day?


MarineCorp just vote in the top 100 ;)
