T4THQ has received a few questions concerning the pursuit of Thisbe's Diamond: Mission #001. We realize the hunts are new, and just getting started---and so questions will be asked. We will answer what we can or feel is needed to offer clarifications. (realize not all questions will or can be answered)
Q) Are we supposed to be finding out where the guy in the video is [dispatch 2]......or is the location of the video irrelevant?
A)Multiple Dispatches, acquired over the course of the next week or more, will be needed to determine location. The location/answer is not the one in the video. Agent White only met the informant for that particular intel-- concerning the drop of Thisbe's Diamond-- at Cadillac Lounge. What T4T's contact said is intel 2, and to be applied in someway.
Q) I'm having fun tracking down information. Seems like a lot of work. Is it just you running the site? [question sent to me/jenny/Agent Six]
A) Thanks. Glad you are enjoying T4T! No, it is not just me. T4T is currently managed by a team of a few members. Agent White is in charge of the 'Intel'. He has over 25 years experience in creating 'treasure hunts' and has also found and solved multiple hunts himself. I am honored to be on his team. We have a few 'testers' as well, and Agents on standby if things get overwhelming. Multiple treasures are being tracked for upcoming missions.
The fun is only getting started.
Q) Is the hunt world wide?
A) Yes, any location may be a drop
Q) I can't understand the guy in the video [Dispatch 2]. Should I be able to be?
A) Agent White's contact was difficult to understand. It's part of the challenge and the Mission.
Have fun!

Question: Will these Briefings and Dispatches be available throughout the entire hunt? Or will they only be available to us for a certain period of time?

Other Questions/Answers:
Q) I would like to ask: When the time comes to submit a solve, is there any particular format that you would like to see in the email?
1.Would it help to write the word "Possible Solve" in the Email Subject Line or even just the solution word/city itself as the subject?
2.Is a one word answer sufficient?
A) Placing Mission #001 Solution in Subject would be helpful, but not required.
The format isn't specified. However, when an T4T Secret Agent discerns the location for Mission #001, it will be precise. So the answer will be precise. And whatever that location is, is sufficient enough to transmit to T4THQ.
Q) Will players receive notifications of incorrect solutions?
A) No, as stated in the Terms & Conditions for T4T hunts, NO notifications for incorrect submissions will be supplied.

... it will be precise. So the answer will be precise. And whatever that location is, is sufficient enough to transmit to T4THQ. Hi Jenny, first time doing one of these hunts, and it looks really cool! I was wondering how precise is precise? Is it just a building ( e.g. The Library of Congress), or a very specific place in the building where only a giant diamond would fit ( e.g. in the left breast pocket of the red peacoat in the west cloakroom of the the Library of Congress). I only ask because that's where I keep my giant diamond and I don't want anyone taking it.  |

I think I will go sneak into the west cloakroom for a couple of minutes!  |

A note from Agent White at T4THQ:
T4THQ has been involved in intelligence gathering for many years. More often than not, we have found that several small answers eventually add up to one single, unambiguous solution. On a number of occasions, we have not been able to make the answer appear until we had the very last key piece of information. We believed that piece was in Dispatch #9. -T4THQ
I/Agent Six will answer other questions received tomorrow. Thanks to all Secret Agents helping to locate the drop for Thisbe's Diamond. Another smaller mission is currently being tracked. This will most likely be dispatched immediately after the successful end to Mission #001. More soon.

Q) How precise is the location?
A) As the note from T4THQ suggests, many times it takes until the last piece of key INTEL is intercepted and dispatched to discover the drop location. We believe this was dispatch #9. Until this time, the clues, and what they might provide, work together towards giving a final and precise location. Without giving too much away, we really can't say more.
Q) Are you receiving my 'submissions'?
A) There won't be any notifications for incorrect submissions. However, if you are sending them to t4thq@tap4treasure.com, we can say all is well. We have received numerous submissions, but as of now, none are correct.
Q) Will there be and if so when will the next mission be released?
A) Currently, T4THQ is tracking another potential treasure drop. Interceptions are proving to be less complex, and so T4THQ feels the next mission will be a quick retrieval. A Briefing on Mission #002 should be posted in the next few days at T4THQ.

I would like to make the suggestion that an answer or location drop answer box be added, that way we won't have to send so many emails with possible locations, and also wonder if it got "lost in translation" since we don't get replies of wrong answers. I think an answer box is needed bad, does anyone agree?

I am pretty sure that I have solved all the puzzles, however, none of my submissions seem to be correct? That is why, I believe we need an answer box, so we don't have to keep sending emails. I know Jenny says that we will have a precise answer, but so many of the answers that I have gotten thus far does seem like a precise answer, but evidently, I am missing something, and the last couple of dispatches hasn't hardly helped at all  This seems much harder than theartofhiddenmessages lol at least with that one, there were solid solves and leaves little room for ambiguity IMO. |

I think I finally solved it! And if I am right, it really is "Just the right sorta of place for the drop" ha ha.

Well, if my last couple submissions were received, then I guess I wasn't right? I thought for sure I had it, it was too coincidental to not be right?

I was very sure of mine, and it just seemed like it was to coincidental to not be right lol I guess I was wrong. I'll post my solve if I can't figure out anything else lol I feel like giving up!
