So it seems like we’re progressing nicely!! Lol. Can we pretty please get a hint? This “reflection” cipher on the center line has stopped everyone in their tracks it looks like. Has anyone cracked these yet?

Goldenchild, I agree with your post. Seems like everyone is all caught up now and stuck in the same place. Just not enough information for BOTG unless you live super close at this point.

There is quite enough information. I just wish I was closer!

I need the "matchsticks".

I need the "matchsticks". so you got the reflection cipher and the top color bar?!?!? Nice job if so!

Joining this hunt rather late, but trying to catch up. Have managed to get the purple letters decoded, along with the roman numerals at the bottom of the print, but now I'm unsure which section goes next … the color bars at the top???

It seems most people figured those two out, that you’ve done, and the deciphered the upper left numbers and then the dark blue text. Welcome to the hunt!

I'm also joining up a bit late, but I've been reading hard... and doing some thinking... I think... yep, still here so I must be...
Seems I picked a busy time to join up... and just getting around to posting something...
Anyways... it seems like a very busy image to examine with lots of little goodies hidden here and there. I'm not at all sure what groupings there are... so I am working all at the same time and still finding more little things...
I did get as far as A decode of the upper left numbers... was pretty basic for what I got and thus... I'm suspicious of it... might have two or more faces to show. Working on the Roman numerals... again many possibles but none translated... but working on that... should not be too hard once the right connections are made... but it is not a dead cinch either... but that's the fun.
Same for the blue letters... and a few numbers as well... link there I suppose. and so on...
Not sure if I have a good idea on the berry Roman numerals... by that I mean correct or not... but I do have something that fits given recent chatter... more like a partial answer or a confirmation bit... someone can indicate what and where to put it... here or PM... as below.
Heck, I'm still trying to figure the board out... like I said tired and no free time until this week.
Can someone point me at a list of features of this board... eg. Is there a PMail mode or is it all public chat? I suspect there is, but... hey I'm older than I look and younger than I feel.

Hi D.!
You can PM someone by clicking on their profile name and then Send Message.
On the top menu of the page is Messages where you can see your inbox. You can also send messages that way if you know the person's profile name, I believe.
That's all I know about this site other than posting on the threads.
Welcome!

Hi S.! Well I tried that and it went somewhere... this site is both familiar in some ways and different... to many I use... Anyway they all come along with time and usage... your post went far to answering some questions for me and hopefully some others as well... I found the tool bar to be useful eventually... Anyway it's a start. D.

Just had a thought about those colored blocks at the top. I noticed there are...drumroll...26!
So maybe there's one for each letter. And there are four that have those circles on. They're all pink, but maybe the colors and the thicknesses of the bars between them are just meant to be diversions.
The circles are on: 9th (I): above right 12th (L): below right 16th (P): below left 22nd (V): above center
So I was playing with things like a typewriter keypad: The key above right of the letter I
and a phone keypad, same idea.
Or a pigpen cipher.
Didn't really work.

The creators of the hunt said they are keeping their eyes on the forum. So this is a question for them:
Is the treasure BURIED, or is it just HIDDEN?
And I have a question for the searchers too. Is there anyone in Maine who might be willing to search? If so, send me a message.
Thanks.

The chest and key are both visible from the right spots on the map! It’ll take a keen eye but it can be done. No digging required, I don’t want anyone marking the earth! I would call them nestled, comfortably, out of site. Happy hunting!!
