Submissions open on Mondays only from 10 AM Pacific Time (1 PM Eastern Time / 6PM GMT / 19:00 Central European Time) until 5:00 PM Pacific Time (8:00 PM Eastern Time / 1:00 AM GMT / 2:00 Central European Time) between January 11, 2010 and July 26, 2010).

Welcome to our "Search the words, save the world" forum mission!


Ebil-o is pleased this week...who knows what evil plan he has in "mind" these days. I hear he hasn't sacrificed anything for the past 2 weeks. I'd be scared if I were you.

Obviously since he's been making this mission a whole lot more difficult lately, this might be why he is so content. Today's word search might be your last chance to save the world as we know it...unless you like pretty fireworks and explosions like me.

Your opportunity to save us all is through a word block located at the bottom of this post.

The goal is to be the first one to find the words based on the theme (without being told what they are), circle them in the word block (using Paint or an equivalent program) and then list them below it.

If you are the first one to answer with the correct words, you win and only then will we be able to input the words into Ebil-o's matrix, thus delaying our impending doom. As a token of our gratitude, we'll give you the "Ebil-o FTL [date]" forum title as well as 1 (one) costume code amongst the following ones:

  • Carnival of Shadows Harlequin
  • Freakshow Tank Boss
  • Paragon Police Department Hardsuit
  • Carnival of Shadows Ring Mistress
  • Knives of Artemis Lt.
  • Praetorian Clockwork
Have fun…but not too much as each week we’re counting on you to save the world!

Monday, February 22th, 2010 - Word Block




This week, you are looking to find 10 powers from the Power pools. Please note, some of the words you are searching are only part of the name of the corresponding power if its name contains 2 or more terms. In those cases, only one of the terms will be available.

Example: For instance, "Grant" or "Invisibility" from "Grant Invisibility" could have made it into this week's word block (let me however clarify that it has not).

Good luck all, and don't forget that the fate of the world is in your hands!

Yay. Now we have every combination of 9 4+ letter long words and 1 3-letter word. Surely one of us will win!

Thanks to all of you but we do have a winner in the person of Zombie Man! While Zombie Man did indicate in his word block that some terms were repeated, he gave the correct list of 10 words related to the Power Pools.

If some of you disagree with this decision, please send me a PM and we can talk about it.

Zombie Man, your costume code is on its way, well done to you!

Well, I suppose that even if the shortest words are the most *likely* to be accidental, there's no guarantee -- since 'hasten' was accidental but 'aim' and 'fly' were not (though 'foe' was).

Congratulations, Zombie Man!

Good on the zombified one (except where he was faster than me, boo that part. )
