MEGA Review V - Official Idol Clue #1

**buzz** · 03-12-2012, 07:42 PM

Gotta get the ball rolling;
gotta start giving clues;
idols are hidden, so here's some info to use.

Expect the unexpected;
sage advice for the wise,
examine things closely and search for the prize.

A forum for food,
a forum for sports,
a forum for laughter
and mayhem of all sorts.

In one of these,
an idol resides.
While ya'll go a lookin'
We be splitting our sides.

"...a nice fiver" you say.... Hmmm...

For the the price of a couple of cigars, such an evil way to have someone frantically searching the site for you.

You shoulda also had them record the process into a YouTube video. I'd pay money to see that.

Looks like George is firing up another contest within the contest within a contest!

For those of you who would like to participate in finding the idol but are not on one of the two teams, you are absolutely encouraged to try and find it and auction it's location off to one of the teams

You are looking for an image, similar to this one (not this one):

After each round, we will provide the explanations for the clues. This may help in trying to figure out future clues... or maybe it won't.

Immunity Idol Clue #1a Explained:

Gotta get the ball rolling;
gotta start giving clues;
idols are hidden, so here's some info to use.

Expect the unexpected;
sage advice for the wise,
examine things closely and search for the prize.

A forum for food,
a forum for sports,
a forum for laughter
and mayhem of all sorts.

In one of these,
an idol resides.
While ya'll go a lookin'
We be splitting our sides.

The first letter of each of the first five lines spells "ggiese", telling you that the idol is hidden in one of his posts. The last line tells you to look in the humor sub-forum.

Immunity Idol Clue #1b Explained:

The first clue is postid
and within it is fuond
a moniker that's familair,
almost world reknoun.

Pay close attentiion
and read every werd.
From the start, if you listin
the more likely it's herd.

The purson you seek,
talks much threw the weak.
Three thousand or more,
but not top post whore.

The word "herd" is in the thread the idol was hidden in (a search for "herd" results in 21 threads, one of which was the idol thread). If you go to the member list and sort by number of posts, the members with post counts greater than 3,000 but not the highest (and not playing in MR5) is: CoventryCat86, ggiese, cigarsarge, and nhcigarfan.
