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:


Rules
------------------------------------
- All PC rules apply.
- Do not post results or hints in the thread, PM your answers to vaporeon7 and goirish3. Anyone who breaks this will have their posts deleted and will be banned from the event! You may however post how easy/hard you thought a puzzle was, etc.
- Do not share your results with anyone, through VM/PM or any other means. Anyone who breaks this will have their posts deleted and will be banned from the event!
- Once you have PMed your results for a puzzle you may not send another for the same puzzle changing your answers.
- All entries will close at 11:59 PM on Monday July 18 and no entries will be accepted after.
- The word searches start at 12:00 AM EST on Friday July 15 and ends 11:59 PM on Monday July 18. You may enter at any time between these dates.
- Do not post that one of the puzzles was too hard or that there was a mistake. All puzzle have been tested for errors.

What's the prize?
------------------------------------
If you manage to complete all the word searches over all four days correctly you will receive an emblem.

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.

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.

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?
