Wonder Word Search
 
PokéCommunity Get-Together 8
Wonder Word Search


Four days jam packed with themed and fun word searches.


Hosted by vaporeon7 and goirish3

Get you pens (or should I say pen tools) ready for four fun filled days of word searches. You'll have to use your detective skills to find all the words you can.

What are word searches?
------------------------------------
Word searches are a puzzle consisting of letters arranged in a grid, containing several hidden words written in any direction (← ↑ → ↓ ↖ ↘ ↙ ↗). There is a list of the hidden words. The objective of word searches is to find all the hidden words and cross them out.

An example word search:

Pine
Spruce
Oak
Elm
Rowan

How do I enter?
------------------------------------
Every day, new word searches will be posted, your task is to copy the image onto your computer and either find and cross out (circling or highlighting the words is also fine) all the hidden words on an image editing program such as MS Paint or Photoshop or print out the word search, complete it by hand and then scan the finished word search. Then PM both goirish3 and I the finished puzzle. Not in the thread! I will publicly post the result after I have finished marking the entries, so don't expect a PM back.

An example of a finished tree themed word search that is a suitable answer:

Misheard Whisper July 15th, 2011 12:30 AM

I'm in. Just did the Colours one - man, that was a hard one! Moving on to vegetables now, then will PM answers.

Flippar11 July 15th, 2011 1:21 AM

I have finished, and now i'm sending my results. So I guess i'm joining!

Otherworld9) July 15th, 2011 7:57 AM

I'm in, since I finished them rather quickly & am a fan of crossword puzzles.

Kevin July 15th, 2011 8:00 AM

This sounds fun! I'll do this event and PM you guys once I finish.

Edit: Finished and PM'd both of you. :x

Zelda July 15th, 2011 10:40 AM

Ooh, something to kill boredom with! PM'd the answers for both word searches. :)

Esper July 15th, 2011 10:50 AM

The rainbow one was harder since I'd be looking for a word and I'd keep looking at the colors instead. xD

켄니씨 July 15th, 2011 11:18 AM

Finished the,will soon start the second and send it ^^
Funny,count me in for the following days ^^

Elite Overlord LeSabre™ July 15th, 2011 11:27 AM

Guess I'll participate, as there isn't much else in this year's Get-Together I can really do at the moment... Hopefully I can get on to get tomorrow's puzzle - we're supposed to be on the road most of the day.

Jake♫ July 15th, 2011 11:48 AM

It never fails me, I always find the biggest words first and the small ones (like pea) are nearly impossible for me to find quickly =3 Oh well results sent in.

Superjub July 15th, 2011 12:13 PM

I'll give it a go. :) I had to do loads of word searches at school so I should be good although I bet I'm rubbish. :P

LightOfTruth July 15th, 2011 12:18 PM

I just submitted my word-search entries :)

Uecil July 15th, 2011 12:55 PM

I'll enter because this looks pretty cool and PM my finished word searches later.

Brendino July 15th, 2011 1:04 PM

I'm actually pretty good at word searches, so I got the first two fairly quickly. Hopefully I'll be able to get tomorrow's though, as I won't be home for most of the day.

Finished Day 2's word searches.

vaporeon7 July 15th, 2011 7:25 PM

Day 2's puzzles are up, enjoy. Don't worry, you can still submit day one's along with Day two's. If there are any flaws please PM right away.

Mario The World Champion July 15th, 2011 7:29 PM

Say, I got a question. In order to win that emblem besides finding all the worlds, do you have to do all the searches for the entire event? Or can a person do any day they want?

You have to complete all the word searches in the entire event :3

Mario The World Champion July 15th, 2011 7:42 PM

So I have to do all 8 of them, if you're planning on having that much.

I better get to work.

King Gumball July 16th, 2011 7:31 PM

Finished all 4 of them... Took ages x; Mr Men one was the hardest imo. Skinny, rush or fussy were the hardest words, and 'spare' fromt he house one

vaporeon7 July 16th, 2011 10:18 PM

The new ones are up now :3

Misheard Whisper July 16th, 2011 10:28 PM
