Title: The Great (Unofficial) Treasure Hunt of the Forum.
Post by: Captain Wortshire on August 03, 2020, 01:49:17 AM
Welcome to the Great (Unofficial) Treasure Hunt of the Forum.

As the last few days have been pretty boring, I decided to make a fun little game...

Hidden throughout Captain Wortshire's posts, there are 13 Crystal Skulls waiting to be found in spoilers with a skull on it.

Each Skull comes with a letter which is part of a mystery word. As you can see, I have already provided one letter for you:

_ _ A _ _ _ _ -  _ _ -  _ _ _ _ _

When you find a post with a Crystal Skull, quote it, and post it here as proof of finding it..

Your objective: Find all 13 Skulls, and solve out the mystery word.

First one to solve the mystery word will receive...

...An unofficial badge?

Maybe?

I don't know...

Well, have fun!

By the way, here are some clues to help you on your way...


Spoiler


Allow me to introduce myself and say.
A clue is hidden on the very first day...


A triumphant return, in a party is seen,
Bearing gifts of delicious mexican cuisine...


Dearly beloved we be gathered here today,
To celebrate an old wedding of a member gone away...


Inside a club, and discussing a dish,
A sauce of tomato, sugar and fish...


A "place of destruction" with a large bite,
Against the unbeatable enemy in a fight...

A call to battle, a tale never told,
A brilliant idea that will never unfold,...


We are under attack, and what do you see?
Rolling on the ground, shot in the knee...


Three types of warriors, each their own kind
Together they stand, all classes entwined...


Murder is imminent, in the dark of the night
An assistant arises, at the time of midnight...


To the one who seeks death, the answer is called,
COME! And cause all to be appalled...

Buying some crisps, flavored with meat,
And use bogus money to acquire the treat...


Breaking news! Seen in the sky,
A UFO in the Area LI...


In an unofficial topic, a creature awakes,
Emanating power to raise up the stakes...



[close]

P.S: As an even harder challenge, try to find all the Skulls and answers before the end of August...

Just thought it up last week.

All I needed to do is find old posts, and make the rhymes

TOPIC BUMP!!!

Four clues left to find...

Inside a club, and discussing a dish,
A sauce of tomato, sugar and fish...

A "place of destruction" with a large bite,
Against the unbeatable enemy in a fight...

Murder is imminent, in the dark of the night
An assistant arises, at the time of midnight...

To the one who seeks death, the answer is called,
COME! And cause all to be appalled...

I usually buy any marinara sauce, cook it with some ground beef and onions, then the secret is to add the perfect amount of salt, sugar, and fish sauce.
