Although, a really long time ago, I was the "Leprechaun of Australian Republic", but this was a long time ago and ĺasted for less than a week. It seems to just be random to me, which would make sense as one could say "you get it with the luck of the Irish"

Maybe the word "lucky" in your motto, then?

The word "luck" I see now that's been mentioned in the past in relation with this EE:

Mithli wrote:No gold in any of my custom fields. Never had it.

But maybe the issue is distributed to all who have something 'Irish' in their custom fields. For instance: my motto is "Yeah, good luck with that."

Luck of the Irish?

I think Generic Beauracracy got it because their national currency is the gold bar.

There can be more than one triggers, as we've seen in the Santa EE.

Neither EE #430 is in the OP. :meh:

The current number of Easter Eggs is ten, not eight.

430 is an Easter Egg? Holy Shit. I got that issue completely oblivious to the fact it was an Easter Egg.

Anyways, what do you have to do to get the Santa one?

Issue #430 does mention it is an Easter Egg.

Regarding the Santa EE, read in present thread, from this post onwards.

Despite my previous skepticism, my current data does support the notion that the Santa easter egg can only be received near Chrismastime, even if you have the right fields. I've seen nobody get it in ages, despite setting my script to look for it.

You are right. Although I answered it mid-February in a nation of mine, just to troll you.

Doesn't work. It's usually pretty obvious when a nation hasn't answered issues in months, and simple lack of volume is a clue if nothing else.

HA! I said that already. I knew that it was true! Just like how you only can get the lucky charms one during St. Patrick's Day time. Eais for the win.
