As seen on this board, the videos could be interpreted to have 100's if not thousands of clues leading in all different directions.

I wouldn't be surprised if the PM's don't have a list of clues and, as much as I would like to see a detailed full solve, don't expect to get that satisfaction.

I don't doubt that the treasure was buried, and I agree with their reasoning for digging it up themselves, but realistically I don't think anyone would have found it without some additional clues anyway.

I know for a fact that this was NOT a hoax. However, I think the clues probably didn't add up as well as they intended. That's probably why after 3 years nobody ever came close. (Close is not randomly looking in 5 parks one of which is Floyd Bennet Field.) People are going to cry foul on the solution no matter what though. It's also possible that the hurricane never broke the treasure hunt, and they dug it up just to be over with it.

They really should follow through with this because if they ever decide to try this again in the future, it'll help to show that it was real the first time and there was a solution. I think that most people were too skeptical to believe it the first time.

Thought about this today and decided to check to see if they posted the solution. I guess it's not going to happen. Took a peek at one of the videos again. Such a sad ending (no solution) to some of the best produced media I have ever seen. Cheers.

For those that are missing the hunt, here's a multi-million dollar one. And this guy is still giving out new clues.
