Welcome!
Why hello ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the first ever TricksTutorials.com scavenger hunt! You happen to be fortunate that I was bored enough to think this up and put it into action. Hopefully it'll provide a little bit of fun. Teamwork!

- How It Works :time:
Alright, hidden throughout the forums are cleverly placed clues, hints, and secrets, which ever so cleverly lead to other clues, hints, and secret.

Sometimes these clues will lead you to right to another clue. Sometimes, they may make you gather information from a chain of other links or websites. Sometimes you may have to find information from a video, or use your young mind to solve the puzzles to eventually get to the end.

Becomes familiar with the URL up above in your browser window, as you will have to be substituting in information and numbers, often times in the palce of things like Member ID's [u=#], Topic ID's [t=#], and the like.

- Rules :pwing:
- Feel free to discuss whatever you want related to the hunt in this topic, brag about how far you've gotten, try to throw people off, generally be awesome, complain about how you're stuck at a certain part, however, NO direct linking to any of the clues is allowed!
- The rules of the game change, however, on AIM, MSN, or whatever other IM clients. Outside the forums, feel free to make or break alliances, form teams and put your heads together to help each other out. Share your findings, point out clues, use your e-buddies to your advantage!
- When you eventually reach the end, you'll know what to do.
- If something I did doesn't make much sense and a bunch of people get stuck, I'll provide extra clues!

- Prize :trophy:
Hmmm, to be honest I'm not sure what the prize should be yet haha. Gimme some ideas (and no, modship won't be a prize). Maybe you'll the satisfaction of doing it will be its own reward, maybe I'll give you some footage, who knows. I'll think of something! :wise:

This isn't too complex I didn't wanna spend too much time making it. But there is a sequence of places to go, and its your job to figure out how to go from place to place. I hope this wasn't too easy though haha, but we'll see

First Clue :music:
Your first clue is easy, but I can only give it to you on the 3rd day of this wekend.

- Addendum :money:

All clues are obvious. When you solve a clue, the next clue will be presented to you very obviously, and you'll usually be told that it is a clue. (Therefore, if you reach a "dead end" so to speak, there probably isn't a clue there)
I've reworded a couple clues very slightly to hopefully help.
In certain clues, such as the one you guys seem to be stuck on now, you may want to think quite critically of different meanings for certain keywords in the clue.


Have fun!

I'm stupid. I got the first clue and only the first clue.:(

Oct-12-08, 10:25 PM
Skilzat the third is hard =[

Skilzat85X
Oct-12-08, 10:27 PM
Ahaha either Juji has been checking my history of mod edits or he's living up to the expectations of being one of the people able to solve this. Either way is smart imo.
Skilzat the third is hard =[
I forget which one exactly is the third haha.

It seems lots of people are having trouble with it so you can just post what the clue is and I'll hint at it.

Kitosho
Oct-12-08, 11:20 PM
i need help with the second

Kitosho
Oct-12-08, 11:21 PM
Exclusive Skilzat footage would be good!
That or that Syice sampler, if it actually exist.

Gettin the color of our named changed to swartz pink would be cool lmfao

"by the way guys, maybe we can find the next place to go if do a frame by frame search for the users ID"

(i remember it by heart because of the many hours i spent staring at it)

Inkrepid
Oct-13-08, 08:08 AM
Whered you find it? I feel like I've tried everything for the second clue...does it have to do with Dave C's thread Id's? EUGHH

Hmm I dunno. I was looking for Welcome Home but I forgot what act number it was...

Hopefully you mean the animation to which the arrow is pointing...

Man, hours spent looking at it haha. I bet by now you've looked at it so many times you know just how many frames are in that picture, huh?

KITOSHO WE NEED TO FIGURE THIS OUT. CLUE 2 IS WTF!

Inkrepid
Oct-13-08, 08:26 AM
Its ACT III, or 3. This does not help me! Neither does adding 360, 540, 720, 900, 1080, or the 1260(just like dave c did in his post welcome home sampler).

ARGHHH

Perhaps it's a combination of both forms of arithmetic.

And of course you can't add "III" to a threads ID, tehehe.

Arrgh the user ID's are killing me...

Another dimension...avatar? Dont tell me I have to watch the whole anime to get this one haha.

Sakanem
Oct-13-08, 02:27 PM
I dunno, I hope it hasn't got anything to do with the series, since I know nothing about it... though it probably does haha :dead:

Dimensions of his avatar are 60 x 45 which is a mathematical equation.
THIS LEADS ME TO NOTHING

"The next guy's ID been here..."

painfully obvious where to go next, but i don't see anything when i get there...

what trickery is this?!?

I am still stuck on the first one :agony:

Tocano
Oct-13-08, 09:06 PM
Wait which one is that haha.

the hint is referring to juji but that doesn't help me at all...

Skilzat85X
Oct-13-08, 10:14 PM
Actually it's not. Its referring to a time. I will admit that clue needs some rewording...hmmmm.

Skilzat85X
Oct-13-08, 10:21 PM
Look for expressions. You're 23 so I can only imagine at some point in your life you went through high school level arithmetic terminology.

Tocano
Oct-13-08, 10:27 PM

I got it! ^^

that was pretty misleading though...

[edit] oh god dimensions/avatar is evil

[hyperdoubleedit] btw skilz have you been to www.weffriddles.com ? I think you'd like it.

Inkrepid

frame by frame search?

More like SCAVENGER CUNT ahahaahhahaha yo hohoh.

I'm seriously no good at these. I'm on number two right now.

I did not, so what can help me without that?

simon
Oct-14-08, 04:11 AM
hahaha!
no way are you getting help!

Nielso
Oct-14-08, 04:12 AM
haha nevermind I've got it already, but the clue wasn't obvious...

Edit: or wait maybe he was talking about the clue that I have to solve now.

edit 2: damnit I'm starting to think that I haven't gotten enough maths in my life to solve the next clue!

Flowers
Oct-14-08, 05:55 AM
lol seriously, the second clue?

I subtracted 3, I subtracted 111


what else is there to mess with

i'm still stuck on the avatar thing
i have an idea on wat it could be but i can't get the info i need.

Skilzat85X
Oct-14-08, 08:21 AM

No.

None of the clues link back to this thread or to Juji.

haha nevermind I've got it already, but the clue wasn't obvious...

Edit: or wait maybe he was talking about the clue that I have to solve now.

edit 2: damnit I'm starting to think that I haven't gotten enough maths in my life to solve the next clue!
Well the clues only revolve around basic arithmetic. I can only wonder what clue you're talking about.
lol seriously, the second clue?

I subtracted 3, I subtracted 111


what else is there to mess with
111? Where the nigg did that nonsense come from?
i'm still stuck on the avatar thing
i have an idea on wat it could be but i can't get the info i need.
By the way you word that I can only assume that your idea is correct. :wink:

Oct-14-08, 08:22 AM
i haven't even tried this, i just thought i would guess hahahaa
adam told me he's done it a bit, but i think he cheated ;)

Nielso
Oct-14-08, 09:17 AM
Well the clues only revolve around basic arithmetic. I can only wonder what clue you're talking about.



Well I was wondering what arithmetics was (but with help of wikipedia I found out that it is actually quite simple, I just didn't know the english word...) I'm stuck with that other dimension question at the moment, which I find quite impossible to solve.

Shelz
Oct-14-08, 09:26 AM
ok..i'm on like the 5th or 6th clue xD i lost count of how many haha

Nielso
Oct-14-08, 09:34 AM
which is? Btw I've found out by filling in stupid mathematical numbers that your user ID starts with the first 4 numbers of pi, You find very interesting things with this scavenger hunt!:tongue:

wait that was a stupid question, you aren't supposed to tell what the clue is.

Shelz
Oct-14-08, 09:36 AM
Dead end

How do you know when you've reached the end of the hunt?

AndyD11
Oct-14-08, 09:39 AM
stuck at "within a mathematical expression, within another dimension"

edit: shelz your post count is 666:D

Skilzat85X
Oct-14-08, 10:16 AM
YOU WILL KNOW WHEN ITS THE END, MWAHA.

The only math you will use in this is addition, subtraction (first clue) and multiplication (dimension clue).

Remember you guys can get together on AIM or MSN or whatever and swap ideas and clues with your homies.

Dragonic MiKe
Oct-14-08, 11:04 AM
Ohh, Duh.

I was still using the old avatar's dimensions. Grrr. I feel so stupid.

Edit: ack I'm stuck again... I tihnk I might be fairly close to the end though.

Edit: Hahaha, okay nevermind.

Nielso
Oct-14-08, 11:41 AM
Old avatar?

I know, tough game for you people! :wink:

Then again, that makes you do exactly what I wanted everyone to do for the last clue. Look through that entire huge thread of gayness. Tehehe.

Inkrepid
Oct-14-08, 12:02 PM
I've got mine set to 20 lol

I normally do, but I set it to 100 to make the hunt easier.

So what was with the clue dealing with MG09 and the pregnant lady? The one after the dimensions one

Dragonic MiKe
Oct-14-08, 12:22 PM
Okay, I'm totally stuck on the sequence bit. I think it's probably much simpler than I think but I can't seem to think how that might be. :sad:
