I found a number of threads that I had never seen before, and some that had died that I had forgotten about.  It was great fun.

Great work, you egg-hunters!

Did everybody catch the the first hint that we gave out? I pass it on in a chat session, but here it is in case you missed it:

  "Each board has no more than one egg hidden in it."

And here's your second hint:

  "The eggs were placed in threads that were on the first page of various boards in our forum. Within each thread containing an egg, the egg could be placed in any post - i.e. a recent post or an earlier post. So you might have to page through a multi-page thread to find the egg."

(Also, note that I hid them a few days ago, and some of those threads may have drifted to page 2 by now.)


Over the next few days, we'll give hints out for specific eggs - so keep track of the ones that you still need to find, and maybe you'll see a hint here that will help.

I finally found all ten eggs after being convinced that there were none out there! This was a fun way to explore places on KB that I don't normally frequent. At this point, I mostly just check out the recommendations, free books, and bargains on The Book Corner board. After searching the entire community I can see how much fun some of you have, particularly on the Not Quite Kindle board!! There were some topics that I remember thinking would be fun to go back to after I finished "hunting". Many thanks to each of the moderators for all that you do to make this such a great and interesting board. Kindleboards is Great!
