She tried to vote me off. What did she think was going to happen?

Actually ... she views my use of the word "laughable" above as an egregious insult to her, and she demands I delete her account.

No, I'm not kidding.

The ones you missed, by the way:

Round 1:
- Song 2: Orbital - Funny Break (One Is Enough)
The hint was a famous song by William Orbit, who formed the band Orbital.

- Song 4: Chrono Cross Theme Song (Orchestral)
Performed by the PLAY! Orchestra. A YouTube search for "PLAY!" would have turned it up.

- Song 6: Sweet - Love Is Like Oxygen
Hint is obvious on this one.



Round 2:
- Song 1: Cubanate - Skeletal

has anyone found the easter egg?

Nope. At least one person stood in front of the door that it's behind, but they didn't open it.

If she's still on here:
I think GTS was complimenting you because you were the only one to get a point in the last round for our team...and then we voted you out. My apologies, also, for the trash talk. I meant it in good fun. Don't leave because of that.

Also, I've done everything I can think of regarding the clues for the easter egg. Can you tell us who it was that was close or do you just know that someone was close?

Another hint: A picture is worth a thousand words.

Another hint: If you were to make a new branch of science, studying only the Stegosaurus, what might that branch be called?

If a person turns in 7 NCAAbbs Everywhere tags, I will literally point out the door the easter egg is hidden behind.

I'm not good with literary devices, could you just give me the link?

When I say point out the door, I mean ***EXTREMELY*** narrow down where it could be. But it will still be up to you to figure out how to unlock the door.

Open sesame!

Well, I think I've figured out the clues. I just can't find the information...

Stegasaorology!

The only thing "looking at me" as far as I can tell is your avatar, GTS...

Several people are at the door, but nobody seems to be able to unlock it.

I did all I could a month ago with my computer picture skills...took color out, put it back in, contrast, rotate. I used every option I had at my disposal.

BTW, a stegasaurus isn't the only dinosaur with boney plates.

The answer:

In my avatar was a hidden file (hide.txt). Using steghide, you could scan my avatar for hidden files. It would prompt you for a decryption password. Simply leave it blank (no pass).

So as you can see, the answer was literally staring you in the face.

4 people figured it had something to do with my avatar. 2 tried some steganography methods. Nobody used the most popular steganography program out there (steghide) on my avatar, though.

Nobody wins.
