 Post subject: The 46+1 HRWiki Member Word Search!

I used my old copy of Hoyle Word Games and a custom word list to generate the puzzle below. There are 46+1 names of HRWiki members to be found in it (including Tom, which wasn't meant to be there). 46+1 (including Tom) have been found. Can you find the other 0?

Image
Current score:
Join The Homestarmy: 9+1 bonus point for Tom
peter222: 9
Clever Danielle: 8
IantheGecko: 8
Droideka: 2
The Snork: 2
Did he sell eggs?: 1
Einoo T. Spork: 1
EveryoneLovesStevenRight?: 1
Exhibit A: 1
extremejon09: 1
Ju Ju Master: 1
Shwoo: 1

When you have found the name of an HRWiki member, please use any image editing program to show where it is, to prove that you actually found it, and aren't merely naming random HRWiki members in the hopes of naming one that's in there. Also, you may only locate one HRWiki member per post. Good luck!

Wonder if I'm in there, heh.

For future reference, try to edit your found word into the previous picture, 'kay? I've used my l33t Paint skills to merge the two found words for now. :)

Oh. Well, I give up anyway. Thank him for the cheat sheet though.

Ian's post is rendered invalid. You may only locate one new HRWiki member per post. At least, that's the current rule. If the players wish to repeal this rule, then Ian will have 8 points.

So, let's vote on whether to repeal the rule or not, I guess? :)

So that's two votes to repeal the rule, and one vote to keep it. I personally added that rule to give more players a chance to play, so it'll probably take an overwhelming majority to sway me. Anyone else have an opinion?

Well, the cheat-sheet from Ian is already there, so should we just have the rule apply to every post after this?

LOL THE CHEAT LOL

So, you're saying that we should give Ian 8 points, but then enforce the one-at-a-time rule from now on? I dunno. . . it seems awfully unfair. Ian's allowed to score 8 in one post, but no one else gets to do so? I'd prefer to just repeal the rule altogether, or invalidate Ian's post until he edits it.

Okay, since I really want this game to continue, I've come up with a compromise. I don't know how fair this is, but it's not like we're playing for a million bucks here, right?

Here's the compromise: IantheGecko gets credit for all 8 of his words. But, he may not reveal any more words until 8 additional words have been found. Until the 8th additional word, anyone is allowed to reveal multiple words in one post. For example, the next poster can post 8 words. Alternatively, if the next poster finds 3 words, then the poster after that may find up to 5 more words.

This continues until the 8th word. At this point, we'll resume normal rules; Ian's allowed to play, and any post revealing more than one extra word will be ignored. I really should have bolded that rule in the first post, but I assumed people would read. :)

Okay, resume playing!
