Being a bit devious and underhanded in <a href="http://www.eveonline.com"><em>EVE Online</em></a> is pretty much the basic standard of interaction. <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/tag/CCP/">CCP</a>'s flagship game has built itself a reputation of rewarding the clever and the analytical, but the developers themselves have only occasionally taken part in the antics themselves. The development team has gone a step further this time, however, posting <a href="http://twitpic.com/4127ib">a bit of valuable information for fans</a>... in the form of a <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/QR_Code">QR code</a>, with no further hints for players.<br />
<br />
Players with smartphones and other QR readers have already deciphered the meaning of the square, which promises a fan gathering at <a href="http://www.paxsite.com">PAX East</a> in Boston. There will be developers, drinks, and an event exclusive, but players will be required to mail their first and last names as well as their character names to <a href="mailto:paxeast2011@ccpgames.com">paxeast2011@ccpgames.com</a> in order to attend. It promises to be a fun time for <em><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/EVE-Online/">EVE Online</a></em> fans -- and while it's a bit of a sneaky way of making the announcement, really, it's par for the course.<br />

Didn't get quite enough exposure to eggs this weekend? Let us help you out a bit with a brand new contest held by the good folks at <a href="http://www.runesofmagic.com"><span style="font-style: italic;">Runes of Magic</span></a>. Starting today, Massively readers will have the opportunity to participate in a unique competition to help celebrate <span style="font-style: italic;">RoM</span>'s Spring Event.<br /><br />The basics of <a href="http://us.runesofmagic.com/news,id175,easter_egg_hunt.html">the rules</a> are simple: check out our <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/category/runes-of-magic"><span style="font-style: italic;">Runes of Magic</span> category page</a> (multiple pages) and hunt down small Rune Eggs of various colors. Count up the number of blue, green and red eggs hidden on the page and report them on <a href="http://us.runesofmagic.com/easteregghunt/index.php">an official form</a> for this event. These eggs will be hidden throughout the category pages, in images, posts and anywhere else we could sneak them in. This contest ends on April 19th, so get moving! Read below the cut for complete details.<p><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/04/13/runes-of-magic-spring-contest-can-you-find-the-eggs-on-our-site/" rel="bookmark">Continue reading <em>Runes of Magic Spring contest: Can you find the eggs on our site?</em></a></p><p style="padding:5px;background:#ffffcc;border:1px solid #ffff99;clear:both;"><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com"><img src="http://massively.joystiq.com/media/feedlogo.gif" alt="Massively" style="float:left;padding:0 5px 5px 0;" /></a><a href="http://massively.joystiq.com/2009/04/13/runes-of-magic-spring-contest-can-you-find-the-eggs-on-our-site/">Runes of Magic Spring contest: Can you find the eggs on our site?</a> originally appeared on <a href="http://massively.joystiq.com">Massively</a> on Mon, 13 Apr 2009 15:00:00 EST.
