This game is quite self-explanatory.

Rules:
-The person who is starting the search will put down a list of things to find and you find them
-The person who is starting the search will distribute the points according to the difficulty of the search
-You just post the link on this thread, and in bold above it the thing that you were trying to find
-The person who is starting the search will tell the others to find 10 items
-Once the 10 items have been found (or if 5 or more people say that the search is too hard), I will pick a new search starter (usually someone who guesses a lot)
-The person who is picked does not have to start a search. If the person refuses or does not respond in 3 days, I will pick another person, and so on and so forth.
-If you have posted a list, and an item has been found, it would be greatly appreciated if you cross the text out:
Script Command:
[s][/s]
Example Showing the Script:
[s]CaravelNet Forum[/s]
Example Without Script: CaravelNet Forum


Cheating:
-Changing your item so it fits the search item (ex. Find a signature that says Bomb has been planted, then changing your signature so it fits that)
-PMing or emailing someone else the answer if you are disqualified or banned
-Guessing for a bunch of random stuff. Its not really cheating, but its annoying. (ex. Question: Find a hold with 100 monsters - Answer: Uhm, Blue Rooms? Chickadee? Internet Connection? KDD2.0? etc.)
-Editing your answer after someone else has posted the right answer and saying you had the answer first.

Cheating twice results in a disqualification for the current search.
Cheating thrice results in a permanent ban from this thread.

I'm very sorry if anyone thinks I'm being too harsh, but I really hate cheaters.


I'm sorry if this is too vague, or my grammar is off, or if I spell bad, ask for clarification.

I will distribute the first 10 items that you have to find:

-A Hold on the Holds Board with 504 monsters
-A thread about leet speak
-A monster suggestion that takes 3 hits to kill
-A member of the forums with the misc info: Just an old man trying to keep an active mind :o)
-A Hold on the Holds Board by A disabled member
-A Hold not on the Holds board by Joker5
-A disabled member from Australia
-A Hold with 370 monsters
-A member of the forums that last posted August 01, 2005
-A member of the forums that has the signature: Bomb has been planted.



Well, there you go!

Keep posting,

Hold with 504 monsters:

Return to Dugan's Dungeon

I desperately hope there was an easier way to find that information.

Wow, I didn't expect people to reply that quickly.
Doom. Liar.
Okay, as of now I only have 1 mod point, so give me some help please. Or a mod should come along and distribute the points. I only had enough to give everyone but Doom one. Not that he deserved one.

Actually, I only did what you asked. You didn't forbid it in any way in the rules.

Besides, who said I was serious about it... ;)

Okay, okay, I'll change it again.

Geez, some people just don't get a joke when it's in front of them. I don't know why I'm still bothering, but here's your "real" signature. -_-

Here we go. These should be harder, and #7 is an especially hard one.

1. The name of the 371st level published
2. The first help thread about a room not in Dugan's Dungeon
3. A thread where a single Legendary Smitemaster is berated about mimic potion usage
4. A post asserting that something is better than a sword
5. The member who first came up with the idea for DRODIS
6. A thread in which a story is discussed about a teenager sullying a company
7. A person who would enjoy a good ghreht sandwich (three rank points to this one)
8. A challenge not about DROD
9. An iron-free alternative
10. Hold with the 52nd highest-rated difficulty (as of the day this post is posted)

Phrasing questions so they can't simply be Searched can be pretty tricky.

This page lists 52 holds in the order of rated difficulty. This doesn't include Smitemaster's Selections, of which 3 have more than 6 brains. So I'm choosing the 49th item on the list: "Whispering walls"

Depending on whether you count KDD's 25 levels or not, that is either 'The Sanctum' in 'JO's First Hold', or 'Vertigo' in 'Labyrinthitis expanded'

2. The first help thread about a room not in Dugan's Dungeon
I'm thinking This one?

8. A challenge not about DROD
Does this count?

Good job, everybody. Most of those were unintended solutions, but I can't exactly argue with them either.

Now for the harder questions. This could take a while.

Uh, I'm sorry. It sure sounds like it fits the description, except for the "legendary smitemaster" bit - that one's complaining about Beethro's Teacher, made by Doom (and legendary smitemasters)

Find a different one berating (only) a Legendary Smitemaster. I'll update the clue. Nice try though.

It's about agaricus5's entry in the I Ching compilation.

EDIT: I'm referring to "Trapdoor clearance with simultaneous mimic motion, and only 3 or so solutions across 60+ squares", which room was designed by agaricus5.

EDIT2: It's I Ching, not UA.

EDIT3: lol, sorry. His legendariness is not officially recognised. I just assumed that.

Nope, that person stole it from somebody. The real person who thought it up wants royalties to this day.
