But does the goat count as the item? Or the something else? <p>The Knight<br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.eternal-anubis.com/Images/Aragornsig.jpg" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><br>"I see in your eyes, the same fear that would take the heart of me.<br>A day may come when the courage of men fails.<br>When we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship but it is not this day.<br>This day we fight!"</p><i></i>

no-probably not. It's probably that you use an item on somehting when the goat is following you. <p>---------<br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.nancycarterdesign.com/bryce/sig.gif" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br>"I cut down trees, I wear high heels, suspenders and a brar.."<br>----------<br><!--EZCODE LINK START--><a href="http://www.nancycarterdesign.com/spongefactory/" target="top">Sponge Factory</a><!--EZCODE LINK END--></p><i></i>

Erpy:<br><!--EZCODE QUOTE START--><blockquote><strong><em>Quote:</em></strong><hr>"Searching for the chest" is a broad idea btw. It basically involves everything of the "chest-quest".

When you come back from defeating the giant\chest quest the goat is already gone even if you didn't use him on the troll or made him fallow you before you entered the cave or climbed the beanstalk. <p></p><i></i>

Hmmm... I noticed a strange thing.. Whern you wear the ring in the screen where the witch flies, the goat still follows you! Maybe this deals with the egg, or is it a bug? <p>______________<br>Rules must be obeyed. Do not smuggle water.<br>______________<br>SPACE QUEST III VGA<br>http://sq3vga.by.ru</p><i></i>

What we know:<br>You need the goat.<br>You need to use a certain item.<br>You have to do this on a certain screen.<br>You have to be in a certain postion and trigger it at the right time.<br>And it will also result with the goat killing you. <p>The Knight<br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://www.eternal-anubis.com/Images/Aragornsig.jpg" style="border:0;"/><!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><br>"I see in your eyes, the same fear that would take the heart of me.<br>A day may come when the courage of men fails.<br>When we forsake our friends and break all bonds of fellowship but it is not this day.<br>This day we fight!"</p><i>Edited by: <A HREF=http://pub57.ezboard.com/broyalquestfor ... forums>The Knight</A> at: 12/19/03 4:24 pm<br></i>

Your analysis is correct, Knight. And Khaveen, that's probably just something I overlooked. It isn't egg-related.<br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://httpd.chello.nl/c.vanempel/Nashh ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--> <p></p><i></i>

OMG... Tis means the egg is even harder to find...<br>But is it logical? I mean, you could think up the guards egg by logic. What about this egg? <p>______________<br>Rules must be obeyed. Do not smuggle water.<br>______________<br>SPACE QUEST III VGA<br>http://sq3vga.by.ru</p><i></i>

Yes, once you've seen it, it does make sense. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :) --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /smile.gif ALT=":)"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://httpd.chello.nl/c.vanempel/Nashm ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--> <p></p><i></i>

Yes, but it would be too dull if he revealed the easter egg. So all we have to do is to find it. <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :D --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/intl/aenglish/im ... /happy.gif ALT=":D"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p>______________<br>Rules must be obeyed.

Giving straight answers would defeat the purpose of "hiding" the easter egg in the first place.<br><br><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://httpd.chello.nl/c.vanempel/Nashh ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--> <p></p><i></i>

Well, The Knight's systematic thinking is definitely the way to attack the problem. Erpy's just as well given it away with someone like The Knight on the job. <p></p><i></i>

Erpy's already ruled out the elf on one of the other pages.<br><br>-----<br>I went back looking through the posts again.
