Seeing as the Treasure Hunt was so popular in our recent birthday celebrations, we have decided at TEST Huddle to make it a more regular event.
You get the chance to become the Detective each week and try find the letters that are dotted around the TEST Huddle Forums.
How it Works
Each Thursday morning, I will announce the word that you have to hunt down each letter of.
We will let the competition run for the day and I’ll announce the weekly winner that evening.
The competition will occur every Thursday with the winners from each week going into a draw at the end of the month for a special prize!So stay tuned and keep an eye out for your chance to win some special prizes.
July 30, 2015 at 9:15 am #8928So the letters are up. Today’s word is THURSDAY.
Happy hunting. The first person to email hello {at} testhuddle.com with all the correct locations (URL’s are fine) will be today’s winner.
If there are no winners before lunch, I will give a few hints on the locations of the letters. Remeber the letters will appear in bold and CAPITALISED e.g. A
They are only located in the forums among all of our discussions.
Best of Luck.
July 30, 2015 at 9:58 am #8929I’ve found a few, but I’m a bit confused because I’ve found two different D’s 😯
July 30, 2015 at 10:57 am #8930I’ve found a few, but I’m a bit confused because I’ve found two different D’s
Someone’s bad spelling! Let me investigate
July 30, 2015 at 11:37 am #8931You won’t believe this, but I’ve found two H’s now as well 😆 I currently have HHURDAYD
July 30, 2015 at 12:22 pm #8933@Neil Can we blame those extra letters on a bug? I know that THURSDAY is definitely out there somewhere.
July 30, 2015 at 3:36 pm #8938Just an hour to go before the competition closes folks.
July 30, 2015 at 5:05 pm #8944Competition closed. I’ll notify the winners by email.
July 31, 2015 at 1:05 pm #8951And the full list of locations of the letters:

As there was a bit of confusion last week, I’ll make it a bit easier this week. All the letters you are looking for are not located in the usual forums. Look towards the bottom of the page. That’s all I say for now. If there are no entries by lunchtime, I’ll give another clue.
August 6, 2015 at 4:02 pm #8999We havent got an email yet with all the right letters. To make it easier, the letters are located in the EuroSTAR and Learning to Test Forums. You have about an hour to email hello {at} testhuddle.com with the location of all the letters that make up TEST CASE.
