Manipulating Easter 2k13 Event

So i was gonna make a bot for the easter event and then decided i was too lazy, (it would scroll through a thread finding eggs, and allow the user to collect only a certain type without missing ANY EGGS.), still might happen but we'll see.

So here is something i want to share, when you find an egg on a page you can manipulate whether it is an ANTI-CUTE or a CUTE.
How? Let me explain.
Since there is no token within POST data when redeeming eggs, they aren't being validated as either ANTI-CUTE or CUTE.
What determines it is a very small and simple part of the POST data.

given this:

http://www.gaiaonline.com/gaiaevent/easter2013/collectEgg/?type=1&topic=85242907&post=427&nonce=418745036.1364525533.10475254

See the "type=1" in there?
1 = Cute
2 = Anti-Cute

When you find an egg simply right click and copy pasta URL to Address bar and change the type number to what you desire.

A bot would be helpful as fuck though.

It might still happen because i get bored, i just currently don't feel like making one in C#> kinda my gray area ATM but i think i have enough knowledge to piece something together in time. Also the only working login i have is Stapled's in C# or else i would VB.NET that shit up in a heartbeat. Since i don't completely understand C# i can't look at the code and know all of what it does for the login.

are the prizes EVER worth the trouble to get them?

No, event items after original grombies are all poop. I never bother with event items.

Its not hard to make your own login tbrough http requests or the other methods of logging in.

Last years are worth about 20k now, the year before they were worth some money.
However since Flynn's store came about inflation is gonna be harder than it was before.....

Yeah I hate this year's event, it's way too time consuming so I do hope you create a bot. <3 I will try this though. Thank you!

I hope someone does too but it's a bit late

All someone would have to do is have a bot that loads the forum page, load a thread until it finds an egg, and that's an extremely simple version. All you'd have to do is make a bot that basically scrapes the HTML until you find the tags, IDs, whatever you need.

Seems I'm a bit late for this. :/
