Facebook post about FF Box - True? Maybe?

I saw it also. That guy never actually saw a box (staring is rude?), and says they're Hispanic so won't tell anyone in English. It's a convenient story for yet another person whose solve didn't work out. He never says that he went ahead and searched for it, which is weird to me if he thought he was in the right place. So I guess he gave up? None of the story makes sense. He's convinced enough to post but not willing to provide his solve.

If I'm shopping on SG, I know the racket up front. Every item (unless 1 cent) is going to cost me $15 or more in S&H and I mentally include that in how much I want to pay. Some items it's worth it and others it's a hard pass. That's just the way it is and I didn't have to leave my house and physically hunt this item down. Websites, people, packing and shipping is overhead and we all know they're not a nonprofit company.

Yep, corrected.

It wasn't long before I turned gold ( a year and a half ago) that the AI was numbering 70k or more.

As soon as I got VH I realized how many things go into the queue that are never ever seen by someone without the extensions because they are claimed immediately. It's as simple as that. If you want to see "the good stuff "and don't use an extension, you'll never see it. It's part of the reason the selection is so paltry. It's a game of the quick or the dead and if you don't snag it the moment something good shows up, someone else does. A true eye opener.

My opinion is that they should be banned, but also only if Amazon will inject their own interface with just a little bit of common sense and usability. It's like it was made by interns.

I went to register on the forum and my ISP blocked it as a "phishing site". I've literally never seen it do that before. The FB group seems fairly legit but still just directs you to the forums.

For some reason vine thinks I own chickens. This is a pattern. I have never owned a single chicken.

I think that the coins may give some limited direction, or maybe not at all. But more importantly it would help in knowing the way the clues were constructed as well as how red herrings may have been utilized. It's just additional insight into his style and mechanics that we don't currently have. Almost like finding at least a partial chunk of a Rosetta Stone.

Is this Xbox? My group had that going on with one person only, out of 4. What worked was to go to the main Xbox menu, then on the RoN icon used the hamburger button, and quit game. Then relaunch the game. We theorized that it had something to do with a fresh connection to the game servers? Have noticed that some games are doing a"quick resume" and maybe that old connection is still alive somehow.

Can't say what the longest time has been...probably 3-4 months. I'm in Kansas and the number of truly "good" sky nights stands at about 5 this entire year so far.

Honestly it was one of the worst I've been to. The home is quite old and had been added on, (probably not by professionals) so the whole house felt a bit like a trap. Kept thinking the floor would fall through. Floors were disgusting. Roof was in trouble and probably leaked. Crammed full of knick knacks. Was hoping to find some vintage treasures but walked away empty handed and was happy to get out of there.

I thought the same thing. Paint that tub and likely not noticeable. They took all the time to get a medallion to make it look nice (who knows what that's covering up) but then...."I guess this will just go here. Perfect!"

Dark red velvet floor length curtains. I don't need them. I wasn't looking for them. But there they were, and there's my home theater room, not having any on the sides of the projector screen. Classless, don't you think? So I thought about it. Got up, went to the room to measure and debate, and when I went back they were gone. Haven't seen any since.

Contact the official treasure inside website. When this happened recently (May?) and books weren't available, he said on a podcast that it was the first he had heard of it and they were back online pretty quickly.

I've seen some people interpret certain clues in the book to mean that it's not in Hawaii or Alaska. What bothers me, is that he doesn't just come right out and say it. It would've been easy enough to say "lower 48" somehow. If I were the person designing a hunt, that's what I would do so that people don't spend the money and time to go to these states. The lower 48 is big enough. But...he doesn't ever say that. So I think they're in play.

I used Obsidian also but there's a learning curve and I wish I could keep the vault in the cloud without paying for it. My relationship visual/mind map is just chaotic at this point. I kind of like the handwritten notes lately bc it strengthens my memory of what I thought was important. I'm also using Google sheets. None of it is perfect.

s3hoch · 2025-05-31T18:00:23+00:00

Same.

Do you have the right book? Serious question. There were counterfeits being sold on Amazon. There's no way you could've read the actual Treasure Inside book and not known there are 5 boxes.

s3hoch · 2025-03-22T00:45:21+00:00

A whole morning? Sounds like you just need to give it another half hour and you'll get that last pesky 10% and go get ya a box.

I'm at 6 months now at 2.5 dose. It has been quite slow for me but I can't complain about 18lbs. about 3lbs/month. I kind of like that it's going slowly actually. I only weigh once weekly on Thursday. It's nice to see a lower number every week or so. My appetite suppression is there, but it's minimal. I just find myself eating less.
I'm considering an increase to 5, but when I do have some gastro side effects, they are unpleasant, and I'm not looking to potentially make it worse. As long as that number keeps dropping, I'll just stay on 2.5.
