The easter-egg contest:D

[Maladiq]

Here it is. Has anybody found any easter eggs? I only find a lot of normal eggs, but no special one. If anybody find any, please let me know, I am really curious how an easter egg looks like

[foobar]

You should search for the eggs (the normal ones). As the contest says:

"Look for all eggs which we hid and take note of their exact location."

For real easter eggs we would have had to make a mod which people would need to install first. Too much work for both sides. This way, everyone can participate with his plain old vanilla Risen.

goddamn, I think I found at least 15 of those yesterday, while looking for nicely colored ones

yey, found all of them and submitted I just hope the confusion I had with the eggs won't spoil my chances, as it took me less than 1,5 hours to find all of them, the time from my previous post until this one, plus the time it took me to submit.

Okay, I'm searching, and already found two eggs. But what if egg is located in chest or cupboard, how am I supposed to loot it without sneaking skill, not to mention pick-locks?

[Powaz]

I ate all of the eggs. Too bad.

heheh... I found more than you... a lot more... But admitting to the number would give me the chance to be proven wrong by somebody else, so... I found a whole damn lot. Keep looking for them

Oh, just remembered, there IS a sneaking ring, for free. I won't tell you where exactly in harbor town it is, but i can tell you that it is in the only burried treasure chest in the city

Yup, that's why I never spend my learning points on sneaking.

That's why Risen has a huge plus for me, they really added stuff for explorers, yet I wanted more interesting places.

Ha, I know where that place is, thanks for the info

EDIT: Cheating is allowed, right? I mean to add those skills, not the eggs

Okay, I submited it. Well I only hope that I didn't miss anything

[Maladiq]

Oh my, only one day until this contest will be over

[foobar]

Ok, after some little discussion, we can finally announce the winners.

Funny thing is: Nobody managed to find all 21 eggs in the city (at least nobody who submitted his findings via the webform). Probably many people thought that after the first week their chances of still winning (being the first with the correct answer) were so slim that they did not even bother to try. But in reality anyone who had submitted a correct solution one minute before the official end of the contest could now be looking forward to some fine signed portrait card set of the Piranhas. What's that saying? If you don't play, you've already lost.

Since there are no complete solutions, we decided to award the prizes to those who first submitted 20 correct egg locations. These winners are:

Rank 1: Ticket
Rank 2: Xorlosch
Rank 3: Fanizil

Congratulations! You are requested to contact Don-Esteban about your postal address.

We hope you all had some fun.

Here's the complete solution:

Spoiler:(zum lesen bitte Text markieren)

1) Chest beside Fuller
2) Chest in the house of Finn
3) Treasure chest in the chapel of the holy flame
4) Cupboard on the first floor of Flavio's storage house
5) Seaman's chest in Cutter's house
6) Cupboard in Cutter's house
7) Simple chest on the first floor of Josh's tavern
8) Chest beside Patty
9) Sarcophagus in the storage room at Ukkos
10) Chest in the storage room where Romanov's chest can be found, too.
11) Treasure chest on the stone pier in the harbour (across the butchery)
12) Cupboard on the first floor of the old house of the Don (order warrior house)
13) Cupboard in Konrad's sleeping room
14) Cupboard in the secret tunnel of the Don's old house (behind Scordo)
15) Cupboard in the brothel (in the room beside Olga)

Mbwaharrharrharr!

Erm... I mean... I am sooo sorry for you. Next time, try to look more thoroughly. You could have won had you only found all eggs.

I submitted at some 22-23 hours on second day too and I also found 20...Damnit, I thought that there were some round numbers of eggs (10, 15 (oh wait that's not round ) 20,25 (see at 15 )) but nevermind, I hope I'll have better luck on the next contest
