Title: Will you be my /friend?
Post by: ClanGnome on March 25, 2007, 07:43 PM
The first person that finds the easter egg on my website (http://www.valhallalegends.com/spht/clangnome/) will get to be my /friend for a day!

Happy hunting!

an easter egg is something hidden.  not literally an egg ::)

But most often, people like to use eggs as a visual pun.

I think the Easter Egg thing is just a big April Fools joke! *wink*



Actually, I don't, :P. I was talking to Spht while he was making it and never found it, =[.

I asked Spht if he would give me a hint about the egg. The reply i got was:

[23:50:44] <Spht> eww no. it's super easy

Well, the Description and Keywords meta tags aren't closed. Not an egg, but it should be fixed :P .

Edit: And all the public channels have malformed URIs because Spht used &#x20; instead of %20 for spaces in the URIs.

Second edit: I think I found it. Comments in the Author Page:

What do you mean?  I had to do a bit of working around for some links.  Are you able to click them fine though?  What browser are you using?

Yep, that's "the one."  And one of the clues was:

You can get those stats for all gateways if you modify the search query correctly

Alright, so I found the right clue, I just couldn't put two and two together, :(.

I put two and two together before I was supposed to and then forgot the number 5 existed (1984 joke).
