Tomorrow, Droid X designate #20 will use its 1Ghz processor to decide an important question. What's more famous here: Tea or beer?
Maybe at the Sam Adams brewery?
Maybe at the Sam Adams brewery?
Its gonna be in downtown DC somewhere. My best guess: Near the Verizon Center Arena. I will definitely be taking that day off....LOL!!
I was gonna mention we need to go back and see if all the #4 clues pointed to it being at that specific pier, near some water? Not just the one that got deleted but all the #4 clues.
Is there ANY major Verizon buildings near that pier where #4 was?
Once again conflicts with: Droid X designate #20 is in a city where everybody knows its name. Or they will in 2 days.
Make up your mind tweeter!

narrowing it down to two locations in Boston maybe
I know them, do you???
Edit: I gotta get my self a bike so I can get to either place quickly from middle ground. unfortunately I don't have a smartphone now so mobile GPS tracking is gonna be tough. maybe i'll take my laptop to a starbucks in the area or something.

Birmingham would have been fine but five days. It seems to me they would have wanted to most of the releases on the weekend so they would have had a big turnout. By. Doing it in the middle of the week they will get 10 pwople instead of 100. Great for my friends on this board though.

I'm shooting myself in the foot here being a Boston resident and all, but the Harpoon Brewery is right on Boston Harbor. Just sayin...Also JP is kind of out there...
Oh nice. You live in miami? I'm like 20 minutes ou
I don't think we can use these clues to pinpoint the location. Was there anything before the "Long Time" clue that would have made you think Pier 66? I don't think so (but I don't know New York all that well). I think we can only interpret these as city clues but I think there will only be two location clues - a riddle and then coordinates. Just judging from yesterday's New York clues.

Yeah, but residents of Hawaii are not eligible in this contest. "Only residents of the 48 Contiguous states may participate." That's directly from the contest rules. So, it's not in Hawaii.
But, if it is as far south as Key West, the asses better give some #6 clues soon. No one lives in Key West who'd give a crap about this, so they'd have to give us time to get there. It's a 6+hour drive for me...and yes, with a specific enough clue...I WILL drive that far. lol ^_~
Provided they give us a day or two's notice...LIKE THEY'RE GIVING AWAY FOR EVERY OTHER PHONE!!!!!!!!!11111111333333333seven

That area is where the tiger stadium is all so

Possible, though unlikely.
Saying you will be in a city in 3 days, isn't contradicted by saying you will be in that city in 2 days. It just means you will still be in that city. In other words it just informs that it will be there earlier.

Doesn't Sam Adams brew most of their beer in Cincinnati, OH?

The ironic thing is those that already have a smartphone are at a major advantage to those of us that don't.
Their's a Verizon Call Center in Raleigh. We need to go protest over there.

The Boston Brewery is mainly for testing, research, and tours. It's very small, but I believe the Brickred is brewed/distributed from only the Boston brewery. It's only available as a draft beer, and in touristy Boston areas. It's quite delicious too. I suggest you try it if you ever are in the area.
