    I may try later if no one does it by then. By guide you mean answers or more hints for the riddles (and then answers) ?

    _________________________________________________
    || SPOILER ALERT ||

    || GUIDE TO COMPLETING THE MINERAL HUNT ||

    _________________________________________________
    _________________________________________________

    Step 1:
    Go to the starcraft2forum.org home page.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 2:
    Click at the link that says "become an affiliate".

    _________________________________________________

    Step 3:
    Click at the mineral chunk right next to the topic subtitle and proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 4:
    Since the competition this question is refering to is the "Map of the Month competition", you should look up that the winner of the month in the question is actually "ninerman13".

    Now fill in "ninerman13" in the box and proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 5:
    Go to the "read first - forum rules" page and proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 6:
    Click at the mineral chunk at the bottom of the page. (next to "support and arguments") and proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 7:
    Fill in the number "23" in the box and proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 8:
    Go to the "buy stuff" page and click at the mineral chunk next to the lottery navigational button and proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 9:
    The way you should solve this is by finding the sentence "That Raynor boy was the last chance we had and you blew it." in this topic with the use of the site's search function. There you would find out that the word you are looking for is "raynor", because it refers to him.

    Now fill in the word "raynor" in the box an proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 10:
    Go to the "buy stuff" page and click at the period mark in the description of the "[misc] Remove minerals" item and proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 11:
    Proceed to the next page by clicking on the "GO GO GO" link

    _________________________________________________

    Step 12:
    Fill in the number "3" in the box and proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 13:
    You have to replace the XXX marks in the link with the word "consume" and go to the next page.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 14:
    Fill in the number "10" in the box and proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 15:
    Since a volcano produces "lava", you might see the link with "larva", it sounds almost the same. That is why you need to fill in the word "larva".

    That is why you have to replace the XXX marks in the link with the word "larva" and go to the next page.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 16:
    Fill in the word "khaydarin" in the box and proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 17:
    You have to replace the XXX marks in the link with the word "scarab" and go to the next page.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 18:
    Fill in the word "phase" in the box and proceed to the next step

    _________________________________________________

    Step 19:
    Go to the profile of Praetor Fenix and then go to the "show all topics started by this person" link and proceed to the last page of that to proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 20:
    Click at the mineral chink at the right bottom of the page and proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 21:
    Fill in the number "350" in the box and proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 22:
    You have to replace the XXX marks in the link with the word "blades" and go to the next page.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 21:
    Since you will still have a decent amount of suply left after the destruction of you 2 depots, this turns out to be a trick question. That is why the number you are looking for is actually "0".

    Now fill in the number "0" in the box and proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 23:
    In the Terran campaign of the Starcraft game, Raynor is thinking some dirty stuff about Kerrigan when they first meet. Since Kerrigan has telepathic powers, (she is a Ghost) she can read the thoughts of Raynor, and therefore is angry at him. She then calls him a pig, and that is the word you are looking for.

    That is why you have to replace the XXX marks in the link with the word "pig" and go to the next page.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 24:
    Go to the "Christmas songs with Starcraft lyrics" topic in the "The Arts" board. And look at the song by Eonmaster. Do not let yourself be fooled by the mineral chink placed in the signature of Ximnipot69. In the song you look for the sentence about the "tenth day of Christmas". You will see that it says "Blizzard gave me 10 ultralisks". Remember that one and proceed to the nex step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 25:
    Go to the "Hell it's about time" topic in the poem competition voting board and click on the link under the word "download. (you can't miss it, it's right at the top of the post SC2 made) and proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 26:
    Fill in the word "ultralisks" in the box and proceed to the next step.

    _________________________________________________

    Step 27:
    You are done. Congratulations!

    _________________________________________________
    _________________________________________________

    p.s. Sorry Meee, I was first. ;)

    You just have to fill in the word raynor, and then you get the next clue. To solve that one, you have to go to the "buy stuff" page, as explained in step 9. :good:

    Are you messing with my mind or something like that. :p
    You have to fill in the word Raynor to see the next clue to complete the hunt. You don't actually HAVE to see that clue to complete the hunt, if you know where to go, but you don't (at least, you shouldn't). To actually USE that clue, you have to proceed to the next step... ::)

    Just giving answers leads nowhere, imo the point in guide should be to give hints on how are you supposed to come across an answer, at least in clues that require you to search on board. That way someone new to the forum reading it will have better idea of how the hunt works
