"Missing Droid X Real-World Give-Away" Contest (1st Post:Updated)

PROPS to JoelR for figuring it out BEFORE the gps was given!!!

So I wonder if this means they give a final clue, then 30 minutes later coordinates? I wonder why they bothered to delete the clue..

 

[bbuck002]

good luck everyone...signing off for now and heading home...

 

[dmobile5]

Well this sucks its a good 30 min from me theres no way i make it in time, if they gave out coordinates!

if it ends up obvious to you with the clue, you have a 30 min head start!

They probably give the clue out and see if anyone can find it... if not within a certain amount of time, they give the GPS coordinates.

So you probably have MORE than 4 hours to find it, actually.

Ya, someone actually called it out before GPS came out!!

True. We may still have a chance at this. My unhappiness has slightly turned to optimism.

GPS it is

Edit: Sorry I thought I was one of the first to know with the text, turns out I'm last to the party haha

Ya, for everyone that's been sniffing and hunting for the last 2 weeks, at least it's a final little shot at getting there early...

 

[bbuck002]

i still think its fun, i just wish i knew who this droiddecoder is that just started following me a few minutes ago on twitter, i only have that account to follow the droidlanding, i hate twitter

 

[Gamble]

To everyone that said "no way they will tweet GPS coordinates blah blah blah".. I have one thing to say

I TOLD YOU SO!

 

[beerhound]

So who was it that was arguing with myself and others that they wouldn't post coordinates?! ;-)

I was one of them. I'll sit and enjoy eating my crow now..... mmmm, crow.

Haha me too. After this is over Im deleting my twitter.

Yep.

Two other questions this brings up:

Will they be doing it the same time locally for the others (not assuming weekday).

The peir isn't in a crowded area (is it?), probably so they can place it and set up without being seen. What areas are like that around the other #'s?

I'm thinking maybe whiterock lake for #5.

me 2

199 Bond St

New York, NY 10011

 

[nearperfectmess]

Well, fudgenuggets. I can't leave here for another 15 minutes. I'm close though. Never going to make it at this point, I assume.

Mesquite crow or teriyaki crow?

Haha me too. After this is over Im deleting my twitter.

Amen! I hate twitter so much, even more after having to use it for 2 weeks.

 

[skmiller]

Any news? Was it found?

 

[johan_solo]

So the NYC one was at the end of a dock... with one final clue first, then coords. interesting.

For Droid #5, if they keep it near Dealey Plaza, there are parks nearby:

Pike Park
Griggs Park
Exall Park
Central Square Park
Fair Park
Reunion Park
Trinity River Greenbelt Park

Reunion Park seems most likely, unless it is literally ON the grassy knoll

Though Fair Park would have plenty of people there...

 

[zane!]

So it's been 15 minutes, no "found" update yet.... hmm.....

Really? You're that immature?

No sense furthering dividing ourselves. We really are going to need all brainpower to help collectively solve the 30 minute clues.

 

[bbuck002]

i still think #13 is going to be at niagara falls park, maybe goat island

 

[BuTbKa]

guys, stop crying... " I'm not gonna make it, it's whole 30 minutes from me.." C'mon, gooooo. Get it for all of us!!!!

 

[jhwf44]

I completely agree with mattdouglaschambers that we should be working togethr to decipher the 30 minute clues. I would love to have as many people as possible from this forum find the certificates.
