Spaniard, you are clearly not a fan of cryptic crosswords or riddles. If you look at this hunt as a collection of clues, you have to solve each clue as self-contained, not something you have to watch the entire series just to explain one clue.

Imagine you are the one making the puzzle... "I want to tell them to go to Dekalb Station, what's a one-line riddle or clue I can use that says Dekalb but isn't obvious... I know, what if I look up other things called Dekalb and make a clue about that!" Look at any cryptic crossword, or many other riddle/treasure hunt sites, this is how it's done (other than anagrams, which are more popular)

Secondly, it was clearly stated that the homages (i.e. to Patrick O'Brien) are not clues... unless you are calling the puzzle-makers liars.

Just out of curiosity....

How many PATH related clues has Mulligan offerd us?

I mean... OTHER than "Start at Wallach Walk"

How many of his clues have actually supported the path we are creating here, versus how many are still out there as "mysteries"?

from episode 3: "WOULD YOU LIKE MORE MONEY THAN $10,000? TRY THE LOTTERY! THIS ISN'T A CLUE. WE JUST CAME UP WITH THAT IDEA. JUST NOW. ALSO, WE DON'T CONDONE GAMBLING"

in conclusion, ignore the lottery numbers

Or?

That's just NOT what they are for.

It's quite possible that the numbers will be found at our end location.

shot glasses and playing around with a poker chip

Wow, Spaniard you rock! You should put together the next hunt!

As for the WPPPT-why the 2 shot glasses? Is that to indicate that they split up or is it just the Captain and the person doing the interview are having a drink?

Why did the captain play around with the blue poker chip and the red one btwn. his fingers?
