HELLOO PVIANS
This post is exclusively dedicated to celebrate the culmination of the Haunted House Treasure Hunt Competition
I had promised my fellow Shadow Demons a post like this (just today)
For those who do not wander around the main forum, the Crazy Creatives (no doubt crazy because they invented this game) introduced us to this game and we were the interested parties to volunteer for our forum

here I go
I don't know about the others but it took quite a lot of time for me to understand what this business actually was:
Each team (forum) had to visit the other forums for treasures...One treasure was one piece of a picture and all treasures made a complete picture
It was pretty simple, we followed the steps, formed the team...gave it a name and now was the time for the biggest task:
The team had to discuss about their course of action as in getting together...finding a place to hide the clues
Pickachu took the responsibility of leading us...I remember we were discussing during the wee hours of a night (IST) about the place..we hid the treasure accordingly
Everything planned perfectly...the thread was complete too
Now came the D-Day...the 29th of October 2012
Excited like never before...I logged into my a/c...I was required to go to work in an hour so that really didn't help
I kept checking my Inbox for any possible updates from Pickachu...and the first shock of the day in the form of her message was:
Hey the contest has just begun !!!
I had taken up Team IPKKND and thus I set off to get my clues...they were considerate enough to reply atleast after 2 requests..I got the clues but I knew I won;t be able to get the treasure for my team since my phone was in a non-cooperative mood
In the meantime I had made Kadeen my agony aunt...she suggested me to forward my clues to Pearl so that she'll help me...but she had already done a lot
Once I reached home I PMmed Pickachu...(Chief for me) IPKKND's clues...but she'd already got them..she sent me the link to a probable post where the treasure might have been hidden by them...we found the treasure almost at the same point of time
Chief told me that Pearl_27 had already got 5 clues for us!!!
FIVE!!! This girl is awesome...that meant 80% of the task was accomplished
Three treasures were still supposed to be found out...Chief is truly a chief...she found out the 2 within some minutes
We were relieved..there was just one treasure to be found now...but this relief was short lived..we had entered a unknown territory and the clues were not really clues
The concerned Forum's members PMmed us the clues and we started thinking on it
We were THINKING AND THINKING AND THINKING...Opening all probable threads of their forum
Hours passed by...We missed PV...DC's regular members had forgotten about it...I was on I-F for hours but had absolutely no time for my only show
It was 3:30 AM (IST)...Three of us were still scanning pages of that forum...that wasn't taking us anywhere...there seemed no end to this misery (I am not exaggerating stuff...we were caught in a never ending puzzle)
I'll show you 2 reactions from my team members to make you know our state of mind
Someone saying: Meri Bhagwaan ki Kasamh! And it's so disorganised!
Being driven insane Laku. How did any of the forums find the clue from that wretched place
The other one adding : I'm not searching that stupid forum anymoreš”š”š”!
(I find this same situation I was caught in 24 hrs ago hilarious today)
I finally PMmed Chief:
It's enough for the day...lets give it a try tomorrow...thus we departed
30/10/2012
The day brought with it a ray of hope...I returned home early...Chief was online and I was joined by Kadeen too
But we had to move a mountain...a simple bit of a picture was a reason for our misery
Ther's One great thing about Chief..she'll never let you give up...Kya kya nahin kiya to get the treasure...Scanned over 50 pages of almost 30-40 topics
Anyone would ask us this simple question:
Why the hell were you provided with the clues if they were not useful at all??
SERIOUSLY...I was thinking this !!!
We had thought from all possible angles as to how the clue might help us..but in vain
Hours and some more hours of search finally brought us towards the final treasure
It was thoroughly enjoyable but gave us one sleepless night
Chief has forwarded the completed picture to the Crazy Creatives...Winning or losing was never important to us...I can't express my happiness on finding the final clue
SORRY IF THIS HAS TURNED OUT A BORING POST
I welcome all the other Shadow Demons to share their thoughts...I hope you PVians want to know it all
I will now have to part with my SD Siggy šš
