The 'Shroom Spooky Scavenger

Written by: Waluigi Time (talk)

Phew! What an ordeal. Thanks to you, we've managed to wrangle all those wayward ghosts and get things back to normal! Well, as normal as things get around here. I suppose you could just say we've returned to the status quo.

Thank you to everyone who played The 'Shroom Spooky Scavenger! As a recap, 19 ghosts submitted by our writers and staff were hidden across the previous issue. A whole lot of people have started a game, and plenty of them were able to find them all! Just for fun, we're going to announce the first five players to complete the scavenger hunt, but congratulations are in order for all of them!

  2. Technetium (talk)
  3. Koopa (talk)
  4. Poyo
  5. TheBlueCatMenace

While I'm assuming good faith that our staff didn't peek while we were setting things up, for the sake of fairness here's the first five players to complete the scavenger hunt not counting 'Shroom staff members as well:

  1. Koopa (talk)
  2. Poyo
  3. TheBlueCatMenace
  4. An anonymous user from the United States
  5. BigBoom1946

The game was completed a total of 25 times overall, although that does include us setting up and some players using multiple devices.

Once again, thank you so much for playing our scavenger! If you didn't play it yet and are interested in checking it out, head on back to the last issue to get started.

Overview

Now that we've got the ghosts back in portraits, it would be a shame not to display them all, wouldn't it? After all, someone must've worked pretty hard to depict them all... I wonder who that could be... We've also included their former hiding locations, so if you're stuck on any particular one, you can go back and find them. Just hover over the text on the right-hand side (or press and hold it if you're reading on a mobile device), and it'll tell you where to look.
