Oh, Spudz!! Don't cry!! I told you they were baiting you!!

Here, I got this for you!

I know it doesn't count for the contest, but at least it is chocolate, right? Very Happy

I hadn't slept in 2 days and was just drifting off when I saw a post saying free stuff...

Thanks for the choc Dora, but chocolate doesn't taste nice with a mouth full of tears and snot. Sad

I'll have it for breakfast, along with some easter bunny rashers Very Happy

Has anybody found the golden egg yet? I also have word that there are some really special little eggs hidden away. Laughing

If I got them all, the average post ID (sum of number of the post's IDs, divided by the number of eggs) in the General Chat is 1344304.286 .

You're right, you probably did. There were some eggs hidden in older posts by mistake. I won't mention any names about that. Wink

There are, however, 120 eggs hidden in posts dated between March 29 and April 5.

The proxy at work is blocking all photobucket stuff, and the firewalls are blocking anything that doesn't come via the proxy, so this will be an evening hunt.
During lunch hour, I cheated and cabled a separate router right into the ISP connection, but the router is acting up and it's a P.I.T.A. to work that way - in fact I had to cheat even more and reconfigure the proxy server to allow this very site to get here in the first place.
I hope I won't get caught on this. These corporate IT guys are really paranoid!

@ wokabo.

You fully deserve to win this compo.

Zeal and diligence are excellent qualities and warrant reward.

Have you considered, as an alternative, bribing the judge, perhaps?

Does finding Jesus count as special? Laughing

Jesus In An Egg

Wokabo, I found that egg in the older post as well. I was worried there was a glitch at my end, either that or I needed new glasses and wasn't reading the date correctly.

Yeah. Found those too.

Can I have my prize now?

I have a prize for you, you crazy squirrel. you're standing on the ranging stake, and all I'm waiting for is for that silly-a**ed wabbit to join you. Two fer. Razz

Now why didn't you's use Wokabo to automate the egg finding? all the technical wizards around and we have to use that old fashioned PM cajiggers.

anyway I'm disqualifying myself for breakng the golden rule... always read the stickies! Laughing

Plus there really is no way I can go back through every single post like I did, even further back then the 26th!

@Dora: any chance of some cat sausages?

I'm down to counting links and double checking - I think that we have a winner, but it is fairly close.

I'll post later today after I take care of family obligations.

Happy Easter, everyone. Very Happy

Lest we forget: He is risen.
