X Marks The Spot

By | November 5, 2007 | Contests, Xbox 360 |

Microsoft is hosting a “X Marks The Spot” Scavenger Hunt… Here are the details…

THIS IS A SCAVENGER HUNT. YOU’RE LOOKING FOR 360 WORDS WITH GREEN X’S THAT HAVE BEEN HIDDEN ON PAGES ALL OVER THE INTERNET. (WE EVEN HAVE A PARTNERS’ PAGE TO CHECK OUT.)

1. START AT TODAY’S CLUES.
2. FOLLOW A CLUE TO A PAGE BELONGING TO XBOX OR ONE OF OUR PARTNERS.
3. FIND THE WORD THAT CONTAINS A GREEN X.
4. COME BACK TO THE CLUES PAGE AND CLICK “SOLVE” TO ENTER
THE WORD THAT CONTAINS THE GREEN X IN THE RING.
5. GO TO THE NEXT CLUE AND REPEAT.

THERE ARE 10 NEW CLUES A DAY, FOR 36 DAYS.
EACH CLUE IS AVAILABLE FOR 24 HOURS.

FOR EVERY WORD YOU SOLVE, YOU GET 1 ENTRY IN THE DAILY, WEEKLY AND GRAND PRIZE DRAWINGS.
(EXAMPLE: 10 WORDS SOLVED TODAY = 10 CHANCES TO WIN.)

YOU MAY ONLY WIN ONE PRIZE A DAY. BUT YOU CAN WIN AGAIN THE NEXT DAY. AND EVERY WORD YOU SOLVE COUNTS TOWARD YOUR TOTAL NUMBER OF ENTRIES FOR WEEKLY AND GRAND PRIZE DRAWINGS.

WINNERS WILL BE DRAWN AT RANDOM, AND CONTACTED DIRECTLY.
CHECK OUT THE OFFICIAL RULES FOR ALL THE DETAILS.

The first answer by the way is “exploit.” To enter the contest, visit this web site, and good luck! http://www.xbox360xmts.com

    How do you get to the other websites for the clues? Are we suppose to know every answer? Thanks for sharing the contest with us

  • K1cks

    The how to play helps a lot, but if the clue contains “xbox” in it, then it is to be found on xbox.com somewhere

    If it doesn’t, start on the manufacturer’s site. I’m completed 5 so far :)

    There was actually two pages with two different X’s for the beaches one. I, of course found the wrong one first. 10 for 360!

  • K1cks

    ahh, good point
    I found the other answer :)
    Thanks

  • IrishGreenDeath

    Yay! I have all 10 now!

    I’m completely stumped on today’s (11/6) first clue (hl2ep1). I went to three different versions of the site, including EA’s version and the one listed in the clue. I see nothing.

    @da hint, it’s not the one that’s green (at least for todays #11), it’s on episode 2 page and it’s not in green.

  • da

    got it. Thanks. That’s really strange though.
