Faces, Faces, Faces!

The **2022 Buildaverse Egg Hunt** event was a pre-release Buildaverse event that took place on the official Buildaverse Discord server. The egg hunt initially had a total of 40 eggs, which one egg called "Egg of Neutrality", unobtained yet, was scraped during the event on April 18, 2022, leading to a grand total of 39 obtainable eggs. 4 out of the 39 were obtainable beginning on April 16, 2022. The egg hunt consisted of eggs ranging from all difficulty levels (easy, medium, and hard). The event was announced by Buildaverse administrator Sid, who was also the developer of the **Buildaverse Bot**; a bot that was essential for the event. Sid published a blog post about the egg hunt event as well along with the conclusion for the event.

## List of Eggs in Egg Hunt 2022

All of the eggs featured in the 2022 Buildaverse Egg Hunt event are listed down below along with an explanation of how to obtain the eggs after the Buildaverse Bot announced that it appeared in a channel (see: "How Users Collected the Eggs").
*Note: All channels mentioned refer to the Discord server's text-channel(s).*

## How Users Collected the Eggs

In order to collect the eggs, the Buildaverse Bot would post an egg in an egg hunting channel, in which the community member would then have to write a specific message in order to obtain an egg.

### Issues

* Originally, an egg would show up across any channel across the server. However, many fans were disappointed by the fact that this meant there was a time-out timer on most text channels and that many text channels became flooded making them unreadable. In response to this issue, the Buildaverse administration decided to create 6 new channels (1 self-explanatory channel, 4 egg claiming channels, and 1 channel that users could use to perform useful commands such as viewing the amount of eggs they own). The channels still exist as of May 10, 2022, but may be removed in the future.
* Originally, the first person to say the correct word necessary to collect an egg would receive the egg. However, the community expressed their hatred for this during the event. In response to this negative feedback, the Buildaverse administration decided that a random person who said the correct word within the given time interval would receive the egg beginning on April 9, 2022. Hence, the first correct speaker would no longer always get the egg.
* Originally, in order to collect the Egg of The Ping, the user would have to ping the Buildaverse Bot in order to get it. However, for some unknown reason, the bot rarely gave out the egg when pinged causing many players pinging Discord moderators for the egg. In response to this, the Buildaverse administration decided that in order to get the egg, you need to say: "ping" beginning on April 16, 2022. This resolved the egg's rarity issue.

## About The Bot

The bot itself was cleverly designed by Buildaverse administrator Sid and had the username: "Buildaverse Bot". Users could interact with this bot and perform commands preset for all users.

The bot included a picture of the egg when it appeared and also displayed content like the title and the description. For an example, see the image on the right side:

## Egg Hunt Winners & Rewards

A conclusion blog post for the egg hunt was published on May 9, 2022, over a month since the Egg Hunt began. It showcased the winners of the event, along with the prizes those winners would receive.

### Prizes

The top 25 egg collectors received the Crystalline Faberge Egg and any user that managed to collect all 39 eggs in the hunt received the Crystalline Circlet.

## Event Bugs

While the event was undoubtedly fun, it did have some bugs which some community members encountered.

* The bot would sometimes go offline, usually due to another bug that triggered it. The bot would have to manually be reopened by its developer (Sid)
* Too many people would sometimes earn the Egg of Alliance and Egg of Duality, which would often result in the bot going offline afterwards as well
