I found 12 kinds of eggs: Fushi, Flowerhop, Woodvine, Ovalith, Bloom, Wolverine, Kroki, Yolkwing, Luck, Bilby, Sakura, Cocohollow.
I will accept Wolverine as an appropriate replacement for Wolper, since autocorrect is a heck of a thing, and a Wolverine dragon and egg would be a perfect addition to the game!
The epic Easter Egg Hunt will conclude on April 11th at 8.00 AM MST (DV’s daily reset). Gather those eggs and don’t leave any stone unturned or basket empty!

Thank you everyone for playing the Easter Egg Hunt!
The Scavenger Hunt has now ended, and the eggs will be counted. I’ll announce the winners later today.

All the eggs have been carefully counted from your Easter baskets, and we have some new and repeat winners! Without further ado, the top five players for the Easter Egg Hunt are… drum roll…
1. dragonglow with an egg-breaking, eggs-traordinary collection of 1,316 eggs, takes first place. Dragonglow is also our first three-peat Hall of Fame winner.
2. NinjaKiwi. collected an egg-normous 285 eggs and is our remarkable second place finisher.
3. glolca smoothly and swiftly tapped up an egg-stonishing 204 eggs for a stunning third place win.
4. lisgie demonstrated egg-sane scavenger hunt skills with an egg-cellent 166 eggs.
5. ladyj found an egg-mazing 162 eggs and is also the egg-ceptional Egg Count Winner.
The egg-tastic champions have been forever emblazoned in the Scavenger Hunt Hall of Fame on the first page of this thread!
As stated earlier, the collection totals were taken from each player’s mini profile. The leaderboard can be out of sync, as it tries to keep up with all the hunters, but the mini profiles are always accurate. If you have any questions or concerns, please message me. Thank you everybody for playing the Scavenger Hunt, finding so many springtime eggs, and spending the Forum’s 10th anniversary with us.
Ten thousand cheers to all our members!

We are counting down to 2023 with dragons! Every day you can find a snowstorm of winter dragons bringing joy and festivities through a brand new SCAVENGER HUNT!
Find as many dragons as you can, and the top five players will be immortalised on the Scavenger Hunt Hall of Fame on the first page of this thread. Winners will also receive the New Year’s confetti on their mini profile (see my mini profile) for a month and the title of 'The Scavenger Hunt Winner'.
Also, we have a new way to win! The first person who finds all the different winter dragons and correctly names them in this thread, will be added to the Hall of Fame!
START AND END DATES
Starts: December 23rd at the daily reset of DragonVale
Ends: January 2nd at the daily reset of DragonVale
HOW TO PLAY
Winter dragons are randomly dispersed all over the Forum. Just read the Forum as usual, or click around and scroll away to find the dragons. There are a variety of different winter dragons and they will all be available daily.
Whenever you open a page, there may or may not be a dragon hiding. You can find a dragon on the Home page, open a thread, then return to the Home page and a dragon may be there again. There is only one dragon per page, so no need to keep looking; the Detector will deactivate (more on the Detector below). Almost any page can have a dragon, including a posting page or reply page on a thread or message.
On your mini profile, there is a 2023 New Year’s gift box to store the dragons you found. The mini profile will keep track of how much you’ve collected. Currently, it’s displaying the Mistletoe dragon because that’s one of the dragons hiding. Every day the dragon will change to highlight each dragon that’s hiding on the Forum. If you click on the gift box, a message will show confirming your dragon total.
When you find a dragon, click or tap it. It’ll be added to your gift box and this pop-up will show.
NEW ADDITIONS TO THE HUNT
There are new ways to collect more dragons and increase your score! In the past, each dragon you found increased your total by one. For the New Year’s Scavenger Hunt, a dragon will randomly increase your total by 1-3!
• On regular days, each dragon you find will add one dragon (+1 dragon) to your total
• On DragonVale Double Days (one weekday and on the weekends), each dragon will randomly add 1-2 dragons to your total
• On DragonVale Triple Day, each dragon will randomly add 1-3 dragons
• And on New Year’s Day, each dragon will randomly add 1-3 dragons to your total
DRAGON DETECTOR
After you find 5 eggs, you will unlock the prize Detector. Since the Forum has thousands of pages, and many are very long, it would be extremely tiresome to scroll through page after page looking for dragons with little to no reward. The Detector will be immensely beneficial, save you time, and help you find more dragons.
In the lower right-hand corner of your screen, there is a toolbar. If it’s hidden, click on the small arrow to expand it (on a tablet or phone, you may need to tap several times before your device responds). When you’ve unlocked the Detector, an animated icon will appear on the toolbar.
The Detector has two images: activated and deactivated. The activated image is a snowman riding a sled. If the Detector is activated, that means there is a dragon on the page. The deactivated image is an animated snowman caught in a snow globe. If the Detector is deactivated, that means there’s no dragon on the page.
If you click on the Detector icon in the toolbar, it will open the animated images so you can see them better.
No dragon on the page
Yes, dragon is in sight!
TIP: Once you collect 5 eggs, click on the Scavenger Hunt leaderboard (more info on the leaderboard below) so it syncs your total, then the Detector icon will show in the toolbar.
The Detector will save you from spending your days scrolling through lengthy pages. There’s no time for that — it’ll be 2023 in 10 days!
HOW MANY DRAGONS WILL FIT IN A GIFT BOX?
There will be a random number between 1-15 dragons for you to find with each visit to the Forum. So if the Detector hasn’t alerted you in a while, your gift box may be full and you’ll need to revisit.
LEADERBOARD
On the navigation bar, click on the Scavenger Hunt button and you’ll see how many dragons your fellow Valers have collected.
The leaderboard can fall out of sync with the mini profile after several hours. It will sometimes show an incorrect, lower amount. If you collected a small amount of dragons, after several hours of inactivity, you may no longer be on the leaderboard. In addition, sometimes a 'null' value will show instead of the collection count.
LEADERBOARD GLITCHES
If there’s a discrepancy between the count on your mini profile and the leaderboard, or if you’re no longer on the leaderboard, or if the leaderboard shows 'null' instead of your amount, finding a couple more dragons will resolve the issue and sync the leaderboard with your mini profile. Please be aware, the leaderboard amount could decrease again, after several hours of inactivity. However, your mini profile will always keep an accurate track of the number of dragons you’ve found. Therefore, at the end of the Scavenger Hunt, the totals from the mini profile will be used to determine the winners.
To prevent your mini profile and the leaderboard from falling out of sync, please follow the instructions below.
IMPORTANT
To ensure your dragon count is not disrupted
1. Do not use the back button after you find a dragon or after opening the leaderboard. Try to use the Forum’s buttons and links. (It’s fine to use the back button to read and navigate the Forum, just refrain when you’re doing scavenger activities.)
2. Do not open another tab when there's a collectible dragon on the first tab, unless you’ve already collected the dragon.
3. Do not let a dragon sit on the screen (it’ll get bored!). Gather it as soon as you spot it, or ignore it, but do not scroll back to find it or collect it later.
Any of the above or similar actions results in stale data and can corrupt your dragon count and other members’ dragon counts on the leaderboard.
HOW TO WIN
1. Find as many dragons as you can during the New Year’s Scavenger Hunt. The five members with the highest collection count will be added to the Scavenger Hunt Hall of Fame and the confetti background will be added to their mini profile for a month with the title 'Scavenger Hunt Winner'. If you prefer to not have the background and/or title, just let me know. Note: if you’ve already won an animated background, the second background will be displayed after the first one expires.
2. On this thread, post the names of all the dragons that can be found in the Scavenger Hunt. The first player to correctly identify the dragons will be added to the Scavenger Hunt Hall of Fame.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Please use this thread to make any posts about the New Year’s Scavenger Hunt. Let us know how you’re doing, if you’re experiencing any problems, or if you have any suggestions. And please keep everyone updated on your dragon collection!
As always, you must be viewing the Forum in its desktop version to participate in the hunt. If you’re on a mobile device, just click Desktop in the lower right corner of the page. You’ll also need to be a member (the leaderboard can’t keep track of your dragons as a guest). Membership is free, only requires an email, and takes mere seconds — so jump into the hunt with us, we’d love to have you onboard.
If you don’t want to play, you can ignore the dragons. However, if that proves to be difficult or if the dragons are too distractingly adorable and you do not want to see any Scavenger Hunt content, please message me.
Many cheers and happy dragon seeking!

This sounds fun!
Is it all done automatically, or do you have to manually update anything/anyone once you've found something? For example, I found a dragon on a page, and clicked on it (I got the 'found a winter dragon' pop up), do I need to do anything else to take part in the competition or is just clicking on whatever dragons I find fine?

The game automatically tracks the number of dragons you found. You don’t need to do anything except click and scroll away! 😊

She is leaving everyone in the dust!

I know this is not all of them, but the dragons I have found today are: Gift Mistletoe Yule Flicker Sleighbell Sugarplum Venture Lokilure
Thanks so much for creating this. Lots of fun. Love how Sugarplum twirls.
I think as well as these I also found Twinkle and Snowball!
The New Year’s Scavenger Hunt has its first winners!
Congratulations, @metaphoricalrobin! You correctly identified all ten dragons! Since braff20 provided eight of them, I will add both of your names to the Hall of Fame. Outstanding teamwork!

Congratulations @metaphoricalrobin and braff20. That was very quick finding all the dragons. 🐉
The first five are the hardest to find to unlock the detector. I still need to find a couple more!

YAYYYYY!!! The scavenger hunt is back!!
I’ve been waiting for it to return. It’s one of my fave games on the forum 🥳
I love the animated Christmas dragons! It make it so much easier when they’re moving, plus they’re really cute! I still need to find one more to get the detector. Then I’m home free lol! It’ll be so much easier to find dragons.
Thanks for bringing the scavenger hunt back adlerist!
The thing I love about the scavenger hunt is finding things on the forum that I have not seen before. LOVE the Wizard’s Sketchpad - Community Art Thread - it is amazing. So many talented members.
Didn’t have a chance to get started on the Scavenger Hunt yesterday? Holidays keeping you busy? Worry not! For today (and every Double Iceberries Day), each dragon you find will randomly be worth 1-2 dragons! A new twist to the Scavenger Hunt. And don’t forget, on Triple Day and New Year’s Day, you’ll randomly earn 1-3 dragons!
For all the players who celebrate, Merry Christmas Eve or Christmas Day (if you’re on the other side of the globe)!
