Thank you K T!. Steph has the others that go with it. That was a gift from her mother. There are three pictures with them dressed like that. No real smiles.... it says Brothers by chance, Friends by choice.

One great gift I tell you!@

I'm impressed with the fact they're dressed like little boys should be. Not in stuff that makes them look like Jr.Executives.

I'm well- I'm sorry I haven't been on, but Dan is addicted to internet poker.

I need another computer.

Ok, it's set - We have the upstairs rooms at Patrick McGovern's for the Pre Dig. They won't be ready till 7:30. We'll have our own bartender etc etc.

The downstairs was taken by someone to do with the swarm game happening that night.

Are we going to do a guess which park pool, or have the selections already been made? I remember AW coming up with some kind of system to choose the parks so everyone has a decent enough chance of getting a park they wanted, but I haven't seen him around these parts yet.

Clue Master did it last year at the PDG. Worked good.

Clue Master

I will set it up again this year too. Basically, the people that put in their $ get to draw a number that determines their place in line to pick whatever park hasn't already been picked before them. The very last person picked gets to have all the remaining parks not picked. There was a suggestion to make it easier where we wouldn't need to hunt people down but I can't remember what it was now.

Plus there was an issue about people that couldn't make it to the PDG.

Clue Master

Oh, I remember. People picked their own # first instead of us picking their name. That way they knew where they stood in line right off the bat. I think there was 50 guesses @ $2 a pop making a $100 pot.

TMK got it last year.

kitch- grainger is a wholesaler... do you have a business hookup with them? if so, can you get me something and I'll pay you cash for it?

I think the only fair way to do it is if you aren't at the PDG, you are out. Are we still on for tomorrow Tim?

Lunch is supposed to be at 1:00, not 11:00. That's a typo on my part.

K T, long time no talk. Glad to see that you are back. I hope that there is a firepit this year at the park where the medallion is, that was definitely the highlight for me last year. That and the crazy guy in the San Jose Sharks jacket who smelled like feet! Well, I better get back to the teaching. Talk to you later. See you at the pre dig!

Hey guys--- do you think it's worth it to buy the newer color Treasure Hunter's Guide? Is there any new updated info or more parks in that one? I have the old one that I color coded myself (I know- nerd). Just wondering if it's worth the extra $15.

depends on if it's hidden in Crosby or not :eyeroll:

Doesn't he have it on his website? Collecter's edition?
Tue, 01/03/2006 - 5:40 PM Permalink
Clue Master

All the collectors addition has in it are the areas not already in the original THG. You'll see about 1/2 the places that it was found in the past including last years spot. :wink:

jk - I'd buy them all

tim_the_hunter

It's new I guess, but still no color.
Tue, 01/03/2006 - 5:47 PM Permalink
KITCH

Is this the 2006 edition???

The 2005 book is good..but I thought steve said he was going to have an 2006.

one word of advice...you need to use all books for mock hunts.

They all say collectors editions...
Tue, 01/03/2006 - 7:35 PM Permalink
tim_the_hunter

just the new 2005 says collectors edition.

I would get it because it's hilarious. he has changed a lot of the comments and the fold out section is much much bigger.

he hasn't made any updated version for 06. he was thinking about updating the software for more parks, like the sample one he did for Indian Mounds, but isn't sure yet.

damn...I knew I should have scouted more this summer...

I don't know if this will show up or not but it's the Park Guess board from last year. It was $5 a guess.

Clue Master

I think TMK got $150.
Tue, 01/03/2006 - 11:45 PM Permalink
mrmnmikey

I thought it was more than $2.

I like $5 better.

More to win!

We need to decide the cut off for picks.

Predig etc.

That way the person with the rest of the field has no issues.
