Stuff we found in Florida:
- Gainesville: Anun found a /b/ sticker.
- Daytona: Floridafag found a golf ball, a tennis ball, and a box of crayons.
- St. Augustine: Floridafag found a MLP colouring book.

Still waiting on the last two...

The latest thread on /x/ is here: http://boards.4chan.org/x/res/11801022
Another photo from inside the MLP book, where one page is partially coloured: http://i49.tinypic.com/o545cw.jpg
Photos of the cover of the book, which has some words scratched into it: http://imgur.com/a/bTnm5 and http://imgur.com/a/1HBcd

3/4 came into being in the chat while I was temporarily disconnected. It began with the image below, and a set number of questions we could ask theblackscales that would be answered yes or no only. I asked none, but suggested the price question, for searchability.


"Ok, so far we have gathered that the reward is in the book, at http://www.chamblinbookmine.com/default.aspx and it was published after 2000, and its a work of non-fiction. The book costs more than $20. It is not on a shelf against a wall. The category its in is from the letters A-K. Its at the North Laura Street location. The book looks like its never been used. It's a book about things that /b/, anonymous, and OP care very much about. The author's surname begins with a letter between L-Z."

We're still in #scales, waiting for Floridafag to make the pickup in Ocala. Apparently the OP lied about one of the answers, and we don't know which one, so all of the info we got is useless without the real 3/4 clue.

> Floridafag has made the pickup in Ocala. A plastic box with a note reading:
3/4 complete
<With>
<And>
"WHY WON'T THEY LEAVE ME ALONE THE LAST SECRETS" - ANONYMOUS

Book name redacted because we've already got someone making that pickup.

Rhay's gotten confirmation from the bookshop staff that the book has been shipped with its contents intact. It should get to him by Monday, at which point we'll get to see for ourselves. Apparently we're getting 'not much money' and two clues.

Just bumping a thread with old drop from Daytona Florida US, found on Jan 13th.
I found that drop especially funny and it deserves to be published.

I was afraid that looking for GOOSE at the rainbow community will be looking for a needle in the haystack





But apparently we will be able to find him:
Code:

[16:15]   floridafag   Went to the hippie festival thing
[16:15]   floridafag   Looked for the guy for 5 hours and couldn't find him
[16:15]   floridafag   I found a lot of people who knew who he was though and none of them had seen him there
[16:16]   floridafag   So its highly likely he hadn't gotten there yet
[16:16]   floridafag   I am probably going to go back this weekend if i can find someone to go with me


I love hippies Wink

I would like people on here to PLEASE report in when ever they recover a drop.

I went to the Orlando drop and only found a bright new shiny light blue golf ball along with a lot of litter. I kept the ball even though it is probably nothing related and has no markings at all.

Was the Drop in Palatka FL ever recovered? We need to know the recovered locations people.
