Welcome to the TCS Shamrock Hunt!

How to Play:

Every day there will be shamrocks randomly hidden in posts. They can be hidden anywhere in the forum to include stickies. There will be a random amount of shamrocks hidden every day. If you find a shamrock, post a link to the thread in this contest thread along with the post number it appears in. The first person to find each shamrock and post about it will receive 200 points. In addition there will be one pot o' gold hidden every day. The first person to find it and post the link in this thread will receive 500 points.

Every time you find a shamrock or pot o' gold the image will be added to your signature. At the end of the contest, the members that have found the most shamrocks and pots o' gold will receive additional points.

1st place - 25,000 points
2nd place - 10,000 points
3rd place - 5,000 points


The last day of the contest is March 17th.

Have fun and start hunting!

Questions:
Are they in new posts or ones that have only 1 page and are they removed if you find one? I take it that your gifts don't count.

They could be on the first page, but they may have slipped onto the second if no ones caught it, and yes their removed as soon as someones found it


Their totally different to the shamrocks in the gifts as well, their a little bit bigger

No, this is the one your looking for that can be anywhere in a post

Then this one will be added to your siggy when you've found it and that way we'll know how many everyone has


If you look further up the page at Cheylinks siggy i've put hers up

You have to look carefully...they might be in posts you already read...remember we can edit them in back further. There are several out there already, and they are going to show up in many (hopefully all) forums (except crossing the bridge out of respect).

Also, to clear up any confusion, the only shamrocks that count are the ones that we placed in posts. Any shamrocks in signatures or gifts don't count. The little shamrocks that we place in signature lines mean that person found one, like the one in cheylink's sig. Good job cheylink!


Happy Hunting!

They keep getting added during the day, so one you have already checked could have one by the end of the day.
