 		Good move "BigFatPartyAnimal". There seems to be to much bickering. Lets stay rational about the clues and solving the puzzles.....

It doesn't matter how quick you get there because it's all about July 12 at 08.00 when the Semi-final (2) puzzles come out. Thats when I'll be hammering for answers.... that's when it really counts how fast you move on the puzzles.

 		Clues, hints, help etc.
Wow... I just wanna say that I thought I was doing rather well and moving rather quickly on the clues and finishing up the puzzles. That was until I got stumped on St Marie and I got an email from volvo saying that Palua Jong was the next place so I looked up the map coordinates and lo and behold it brought me to your website. I was reading through some of the posts and I gotta say THANKS because I really needed the help. I found the same things u all found but couldn't put it together. Anyway, I will be sure to post any thing that I find if I find it quicker, which I doubt, but I will try... In the mean time.. thanks so much for the help! Wink

 		Where did you get the clue? The email from volvo has not yet been sent, not until the 26th??

This proves my point from my other discussion.

 		What to do when we get to Isla mas a Tierras
If you trawl the map with the compass, cause I'm bored after finishing Diomede, there a few points that make the needle move in a direction other than North.

Pirate Pointe = Scar Mountain
Cape Fog = Manmade Hole
Barrel Stone = North of 'Wreck'

I'm sure there are more......

Plus has anyone noticed the collection of numbers building from previous destinations, 7 at the top ofSt Helena for instance?

Any ideas as to whether it is a final code?

Please refrain from posting in messages similar to this one!

This is now the previous fourm got locked due to arguments on this topic, which is not why I have posted this fourm!

If you want to argue about cheating start ur own fourm and let it get locked down!

As for looking up the clue before hand ne 1 can do this through the use of notepad, wordpad or another text editor similar to these! The clues r not leaked from Volvo r its programmers so that is the end of that discussion!

Sorry got a bit carried away there but I hope this clears this up for most people!

It's okay; the comment was in context. That said, please play nice, everyone. Accusing people of cheating is not very nice, but if you want to discuss the possibility of cheating, there's now a separate thread in which you may do so.

Let me clarify: we don't lock down threads just because of the subject matter (unless it's spam, completely inappropriate for the forum, or some sort of other extreme case). We're not trying to censor anyone or anything like that. But if an argument turns into a flamewar, we may lock it down due to the tone, not the subject matter.

So, play nice. Twisted Evil

The rules say to email the answer inside the hunt website. This is something that will probably be opened up only at the very end of the game.

 		the last clue will lead you to a point where you can enter you information again with you map code and email address...better have the map with the code you can produce.

 		Rabes - I've been noticing numbers too... didn't catch the 7 in St. Helena but I found a distinct 5 on the Island of Pulao Jong before you entered the cave... and some numbers in the sand as early as Burmuda...

It is an intruiging notion that these might be clues for later reference. I just thought they were just red herrings to throw us off.

Anyone have any opinions on this?
