HomeBrewTalk Image Hunt!

[BeerguyNC61]

Hidden in recent post or do we have to search 1000's of post in a particular thread?
Is it bigger than a bread box?

Oh wait those would be clues...... DOH!!

 

[runningweird]

I really want that membership, but doing it the lazy way and using image search tools isn't doing much. guess it's the wife **** route....

 

[fuzzy2133]

It's in a forum that covers the brewing of beer. It is not in an off topic, or members section.

Well that narrows it down where to look. I am assuming TxBrew could have even hid it at the beginning of summer or earlier in the year.

TxBrew you did a good job keeping Google from finding the image.

It could be anywhere back to 2004.

Well its not in the zombie beer thread I resurrected from 2004. .

You're not going to beat this. I dredged up the 1st post ever on this forum (I think). Took some sleuthing and a method that only took about 10 minutes.

There's a method that would find that picture too.

bruva, that's like telling the blind guy to look across the horizon at the beautiful sunset.

 

[Malric]

Well, here's the original from what I can tell. Looks like it either hasn't been indexed yet or it was flagged to avoid crawling.

So I gotta use a shovel to dig a hole to find the buried treasure? hmmmmm I may need a map for this!

Here's a post from a month earlier, presumably before HBT was even open to the public. :cross:

I've long suspected that TxBrew actually is Hermann Hesse, and the literary merits of his early writings here only go to confirm that. dasasdsdasdsadsadsdasdads, indeed, good sir. dasasdsdasdsadsadsdasdads, indeed.

Wow, cool.

Clearly Herman TxBrew Hesse was using onomatopoeia. That's the sound of a babbling river. The river is time.

 

[mors]

mmm bread.

 

[LabRatBrewer]

Fish out of water?

 

[Babybatch]

A membership would be cool. But I'm stumped. I'll have to check back when my brain cools.

 

[ShootsNRoots]

So you've hidden an image somewhere on a forum with some 4.5 millions posts and no clues will be given... what a monumental waste of time.

No-one is holding a gun to your head to find it right?

If you enjoy looking for a needle in a haystack for very little reward then go ahead, more power to ya It would seem non-sensical to me to not give clues especially on a forum of this size.

I'm gonna hide a bar of gold in the Saraha... when you find it you can keep it.

I don't have to look I paid for a membership. I looked for a bit then gave up, my point is, if you don't like the way the game is played, don't play it. You don't have to come here all hostile about the fact that the admin is GIVING a free lifetime membership.

He could just say screw you guys pay for memberships. Rather he comes up with an inventive way to challenge the members. If the contest was tailor made for you, you'd probably enjoy it better but I'm certain the other membership wouldn't. To each his own. But you don't have to come here complaining.

I think its great, although the SWMBO thinks other wise as I have spent I would say close to 10 hours hunting this image.

Either way I think it is an awesome Idea and also a great "Marketing Ploy" to get the members of this awesome site to get out there and read the information posted. In my 10 hours of hunting I have also found some very useful information. So Great Job TX and I'm gonna find this Dang thing!!!!!

Looking for a single image amongst millions of posts without any clues is just plain asinine. If that's what floats your boat then go ahead.

 

[twistr25]

On the plus side, I've found lots of other things to waste money on by visiting threads I normally wouldn't.... Thanks Tx

Don't feed the Troll!​

Back on topic:

Something tells me that there is a simple component that I am overlooking. It will come to me and I will be a member.

 

[finsfan]

I do agree that a scavenger hunt normally gives clues and riddles to help. maybe one clue a day Tx

I'm thinking it's in a useful thread, something sticky and lengthy maybe? I've given up looking, but I would look through important threads.

But it could also be completely random. Haha I love this game.

 

[stpug]

Tx has already given two clues: The first one is directly in the OP under the title "Hints" , and the second is a couple pages back and narrowed the search down quite a bit.

 

[TxBrew]

If you blah blah blah blah and blah blah blah, there the picture be.

I'm on about the 10 hour mark as well. Maybe more. This can also help us newbs gather general knowledge instead of filling up the threads with things that have already been asked.

 

[Homercidal]

The best place to hide this would be the stickies. Nobody reads the stickies...

 

[TheSmithsEra]

Is there a deadline? What if no one finds it without .... " help "

 

[passedpawn]

OK, I have a hint for you all.

I've buried the hint somewhere on this site. May the odds be ever in your favor.
