A Dirty Trick: Time to Scavenge!
​*hic*​ Good day, landlubbers. I’ve been brought afore ye t’say I may 'ave accidentally prevented some o' our trade stock from goin' on sale. These pieces were particularly fine, ye see, so I was jus' cuddlin' up t'em whilst takin’ me nap in th' brig. I didn’€™t pilfer ‘€˜em! I’€™m an honest pirate, me.
So anyways ​*hic*​, t' make it up t' th' crew I was tasked wit' gettin' a good price fer these wares, so’€™s I sold ‘em t' th' Cash Shop! Well…some o' them ​*hic*​. Thin' be, I met an upstandin' terracoon on th' way in, 'n well, he challenged me t' a few games o’€™dice. Bein' quite partial t' th' game, I thought I’d beat 'im no worries, 'n did on th' first two tries! But aft that it seems he might nah 'ave been as upstandin' as I thought.
So ye can find TWO beautiful sets o’ €™merchandise in th' Cash Shop. One be a set we pilfered…uh, found in Shengui Guo! Wonderful helpful citizens thar ​*hic*​. Mighty givin'. The other be a might pretty set from the people of Saherimos. Aft that, well, ye better go speak t' that terracoon, if ye can find 'im. He was wearin' a large tan coat 'n a flat cap, wit' a large golden necklace wit' th' initial “Hâ€. ​*hic*​ Maybe ye’ll 'ave more luck than I!
Translation: Good day, people of Subeta. I've been asked to appear before you to let you know of an excellent set of items I'd been holding back - saving the best until last, and all that!
I was asked by my fine colleagues to get the best price for these high quality wares, so I got together with the fine people at the Cash Shop to make a deal that would benefit both parties. Except, well, I felt it would be unwise to sell ALL of our stock to the Cash Shop, and when an upstanding gentle terracoon approached me with a secondary deal, I thought we could have the best of both worlds! I was doing this for you fine people, but unfortunately I was taken advantage of. The terracoon swindled me out of my product through absolutely no fault of my own!
So right now, you can find TWO of our beautiful new sets of merchandise in the Cash Shop. One is a set found in Shengui Guo - wonderful and helpful citizens there! Very giving. The other is a beautiful Saherimos based set. The other three sets, well. You'll have to try speaking to that terracoon to see if you can get them back. He was wearing a large tan coat and a flat cap, with a large golden necklace with the initial "H". Good luck to you, friend!
Note: Full disclosure, this is a scavenger hunt that will run for 2 weeks. After such time, the items that are found in the scavenger hunt will be made available to purchase in some way in case you need extras for TCs and the like! The two Cash Shop sets are NOT part of the scavenger hunt, you are not required to purchase them.

This was fun! I love scavenger hunts and it's been so long since we had one. For me, this was the easiest by far as the gods were with me on both Crypts and Bluff. I got the Crypts piece going through the first door and I've played Bluff in the past so had a vague idea how to play. I won the piece on the first game.
I especially love how people work together on the forum thread and add what they know for those who are stuck. The map pieces are fabulously drawn, they're definitely keepers. Thanks so much Team!

With Bluff I have found that learning the ones are wild helps. Plus not challenging you opponent too much. There are many tips in this thread for the whole scavenger hunt.

Finished! Thank you so much, Subeta! I love the items, and the story behind them. So creepy!
@SeriousGreen As soon as you get the piece, quit the crypts and go back and talk to Blake. I hope you get that piece soon
will the map pieces be more than just wardrobe/TC? or? (Not that i mind, more wearables? bring them on!) but just curious if there is an ulterior motive to the maps?
Thanks @Wolfmyth...just seemed that the mathematical laws of probability within the reference set of only two outcomes were not working too well over the space of 24+ hours (especially considering I was choosing the same door repeatedly, which should have had a positive outcome over an extended period of time). The trial continues...lol :)
@SeriousGreen
I got the piece from the Crypts on the first door, so it isn't rigged. I can understand the frustration though, I was stuck with Bluff for a while.

The Scavenger Hunt was a good idea...until you try to get into The Crypts to complete one of the pieces. Totally rigged!!! Been trying since last night every hour on the hour and cannot get past first door. I'm very suspicious that the Subeta Team has rigged this game in order to force people to spend real money on buying the pieces. Not at all impressed!
I'm still just very confused about why there's a step where we all have to buy the same item (in this case the Empty Vial, a 1k item that has exploded in price)... Or do staff not remember the Pink Lemon Saga of 2013?
So I posted this on that guide to but nobody had any idea, is finding all the map pieces the only part of the game? All of them seem to point to something with Merana but when I went to her nothing happened
Got all the pieces and completed everything, what do i do now, just sock them away?
This is reallyfun so far. :) Although I had to look in the forums a couple times because I got stuck.
Meh, What's the point to participate when everything will be available at a later date anyway? =/
Still stuck on the Crypts, I keep getting dead end after one click, I always have the worst luck. There needs to be an option to skip harder steps like in the plot, even if you don't get the prizes for them.
@RedCalypso After meeting with the Hustler for the first time, talk to Cynthia. Then, look in the Trashcan at Pina Park.
Yay!! I am stuck, but I am loving this scavenger hunt thing!! Plus the items are so lovely!!! Very good work subeta artists!!
Got all the pieces, and so glad that all the scavenger sets are the ones I like most and of the cash shop sets there's only a couple pieces I like.
Really gutted on the Shengui Guo set, because the style is perfect for a sky pirate muse, but the wrong colour. Good for my account at least, I suppose

Oh... At first I was confused as to what to do, but after reading the comments, then I understood. Oh well.
Finished! Bluff was a new experience haha I had never played it even though I've been around for a bunch of years. like 7 or something. Do we do something with the pieces or just keep them?
I'm stuck at Quentin since I had already done quests for today so can't do anything until after the reset. Wish they'd thought of that when they planned the steps, to maybe reset Quentin so we could proceed without having to wait a long time.
