Cinossu I love ya buddy and this is a great idea, but unfornately my POS computer can't handle it its shooting up the mem. usage like crazy so I'm gonna need to know how to shut it off.

Will this be available via cheats in the future? I'd like to give it a shot this weekend when I'm on my brothers computer.

EDIT: Oh okay so if you take out the "/emerald_huntin/" part of the url I can view the forum normally, sweet.

Yeah, it's only mandatory on the first log in. After that, it's all optional.

I had to close it from performance issues myself, (32-bit Firefox a culprit? Using Windows 8, so I haven't found an unofficial 64-bit build to use yet.) but man did I get a good laugh hearing the music, seeing the timer, and the HUD; scrambled to tell every Retro friend I have on Skype about it the minute I closed the mini-game. I think I'd have sunk a good half-hour into messing around with it if the CPU usage wasn't through the roof.

Nicely done, as always, Cinossu, I thought last year's Halloween gag couldn't be topped. You guys at Retro always know how to make Halloween extra special.

So this is bad, then.

I had same thing happening before. Weird was that the emerald was in another place than the red area. I also thought the emerald was hidden, like you have to "click" to dig or something. Clicked like 10 minutes lol.

I just got a Transformer Book, and aside from the touchscreen being a terrible interface for playing this, it seemed to run just fine. I believe it runs x86 Windows 8.1.

.. well, that's an interesting development. I found out the cause of everyone's emerald-disappearing thing. People's signatures breaking the div tags of the forum. Ha ha ha ha.. ha.. This might take a little time to find a solution for, but there will be one.

Sigh, same thing. The emerald was behind a youtube video. Had to cancel and get an automatic F rank.

I can't find a single emerald

I hope there is a way to turn this on once Halloween os over, as it's an awesome way to entertain when you're bored

If this happens, try refreshing the page. The emerald will still be on the same post, but move, as its actual position in the post is randomly generated each time.

Like all of the previous additions, it will stick around. The method of enabling it may be different, but it'll still be there.

If you have an emerald in the Members Lounge, 99.9% of the time you aint getting an A rank

A run I just did had one on goddamn page 78

[Machenstein]

A run I just did had TWO emeralds in the Member's Lounge.

I deem the Member's Lounge to be the Mad Space of this forum game.

[Bluecore]

Page 79 of Members Lounge Strikes again.
This game is super addictive. I would like to get at least one A Rank before the Event is over.
It seems that a few other people have A ranks, so at least I know it's possible. I'd have to be extremely lucky however.

[Jimmy Hedgehog]

Had a few A-ranks here, but Member's Lounge makes it very unlikely to happen XD

[TheValeev]

This is possibly the best idea for Halloween that I've ever seen. I have a lot fun from playing this! :3
But yeah, finding Emeralds in Member's Lounge is such a pain.

Yay I got an A rank. It's so much easier with a mouse than using my laptop's crappy touchpad.

How does the forum handle signatures turned off? I ask because I have turned them off for me for ages, and I still encountered those 3 cases of missing emeralds.
