Lolno. I would repeatedly, while playing some sort of tournament game, get an explosive egg or something like that dropped on my head. They were fun, but ruined gameplay in some aspects. I like it better now, since it can be in a controlled environment, and it also allows the ability to create puzzles to get eggs.

They were pretty cool, in that they were unpredictable. However, that unpredictability causes some major issues, such as one egg hunt being delayed months. I think with our new method we are much better able to control the hunts, and provide a good gameplay experience.

You turned an amazing ROBLOX spectacle into just another game. What are you going to take away next, the Gift Exchange?

Each year we had a drop, there were major technical difficulties. It is really hard to make eggs rain in various places, at various times, for various reasons. The reaction to the egg drops at the time was outrage, as a result of delay after delay after delay, such as in this case, where the hunt was delayed until July.

As ROBLOX grows, it becomes harder and harder to make this happen, such that it now only makes sense to have a dedicated egg hunt place.

Or, maybe make a dedicated egg drop place?

So, instead of a dedicated place having a hunt, have a dedicated place doing a drop?

Yeah, basically.
But only in certain parts of the map.

And some eggs would explode!
And some would only drop once per hour!
I like this idea!

@gordon

That 2010 Egg Hunt was still my favorite though, despite all of the delays. The unpredictability of it made it so fun. There was also one gear in particular that made it about 20x more fun, and that is:

I've been waiting around for this to be released for ages. :O

Honestly, what's the difference between having a egg drop and an egg hunt if you are going to do it in one place.

I understand egg drops in different places, but an egg drop only in one place is no different between the our current egg hunt system.

Difference:
Egg drop: Eggs drop from the sky
Egg hunt; You search for eggs

Yeah, but what's the point?

If anything, this might cause glitches..

(really rare egg falls onto tree and no one can get it, or, faberge falls and bounces of the map)

I prefer having a controlled egg place.

Less spam (OMG EGGS AT MY PLACE COME NOW!!!111!), More fun, harder exploitation (No using special scripts to teleport eggs to you), etc.

So thanks for that, Gordon.
