An Egg-hunter Is Hatched (03/18/2010)

Hear ye, hear ye, kupo!
Drop everything you're holding—unless it's a basket of eggs—for the annual Egg Hunt Eggstravaganza event will soon commence!

It's about this time of year that fun-loving adventurers are heard egg-sclaiming, "Gosh, it's been a while since I last heard an egg pun." And who are we moogles to deny them the pleasure, kupo? To answer the call, the trusty Mog House Management Union (MHMU) moogles will be taking to the streets with oodles of eggs cradled lovingly in our little arms, distributing them to egg-semplary adventurers worth their salt sprinkled atop a boiled egg.

And you, Master. When the event begg-ins in earnest, I don't want to see you sulking over shriveled potted plants in the Mog House, but outside hunting eggs, eggs, and more eggs! Kupopopo!

"But I don't know the first thing about egg-hunting," you say? Well, such egg-scuses can be thrown out the window as egg-straneous, kupo! Because for this year's event, fledgling adventurers are being egg-stensively egg-sercised by their resident moogles in the ways of the egg-hunter, and I had the privilegge—erhm...that was probably a mite forced—of being on location for one such lesson!

Lean closer to hear the details, kupo!

Event Schedule
The Egg Hunt event is set to begg-in on Thursday, March 25th, 2010 at 1:00am (PDT), and egg-spire on Tuesday, April 6th, 2010 at 1:00am (PDT).

Would it kill them to add some variations to the events? Maybe fight a giant rarab to get some egg themed costume equipment?

Why would you eggspect anything more? I mean, I'm with you. The suspense is eggscrutiating, leaving me a shell of my former self. If I have to wait any longer for updates about the patch, I might eggsplode! Though, it is a little eggciting to speculate.

I hope they do something eggstra special this year, but I have a feeling it's going to be eggsactly the same thing it was last year. You'd think they'd try to eggsperiment with something new. Us hard boiled veterans needs something new to hold us over until the level cap starts to increase. They need to get cracking!

I wonder what might hatch from this event this year? Hopefully not the same batter as last year, or the year before, or before, or before...

Anybody got an "A" egg?

FTFY. While you eggcel at puns, I chicked all of your yolks and saw that you neglected to crack out that last one. But maybe that last pun is too eggstreme?

Are egg puns eggcellent or just eggscrement? I guess that depends on who you squawk to.

I got the impression that other events might be added, not necessarily they would change the current events. However, didn't they say that rewards might be added to current events? Or, am I simply 'remembering' something I want to believe?
