Hi new here, but I believe this stanza refers to Florida, after watching his newest video. So the number is “10” or the highway it is next to. “693” Ten Pin Lanes 1453 Pasadena Ave S, South Pasadena, FL 33707 (727) 381-1010 goo.gl/maps/9ZoiFeUNH3V1Vgta8

Has anyone come up with a sensible rational as to how Lukas could come up with the location that we now know based on the 4th stanza
The next plus two is found Astride a treasure on its own Spare no expense, search everywhere Beside a bird that’s rarely thrown
I completely fail to see how that could result in
Ten Pin Lanes 1453 Pasadena Ave S, South Pasadena, FL 33707 (727) 381-1010
Its bugging me intensely. I know I don't have to solve how this was done but I just don't feel comfortable not knowing how it was done.

My thought process before the screenshot was:
The next plus two - referred to the google maps plus code Astride a treasure on its own - Treasure Island - looked at so many places named treasure island
It brought me to Treasure Island, FL but never googled bowling alleys nearby for some reason. I probably would've picked up on Ten Pins bowling but idk if it would've stuck with me to find a number nearby without the screenshot. I thought it was pretty vague without that clue.
And I'm with Coy on the 381 as my #1 choice for stanza 4 with 693 being a close second...
That being said...I've tried multiple combinations of 313 and either 381/693 and then a list of about 4 for stanza 5 and I feel like I'm losing my mind. I've done backwards, I've done just the last section backwards, I've done just normal sequence, to no avail. I'm really hoping that we don't have to put it in a phone number format (XXX) XXX-XXXX.....if someone could just confirm that for me, it would save my life lol.

TEN PINS (Stanza 2 Guide)The next plus two is found > There are three Ten Pin Lanes in the US > Or, 3 digits. A digit + 2 Astride a treasure on its own > Treasure Island Insurance is in the adjacent lot (which identifies the Pasadena location) Spare no expense, search everywhere > Use Google maps Beside a bird that’s rarely thrown > A double (1010) is beside a turkey (101010) in bowling. > Phone# on sign cropped out of clue screenshot is 381-1010 Potential Answer: 381 Makes sense, What I dont like is how random everything is, and how loosely everything is tied together. You have to assume a search for 'treasure Island' which in itself is not a totally bad initial assumption. But then across the globe you get literally hundreds of hits. This is actually something I did very early on in the hunt, but gave up on the idea as there appeared to be nothing to tie the different locations in with the rest of the stanza. Then when I started search for 'X' on its own, and posted that link on the map of the Greek Island reasonable close to Turkey the country. Then when he came out with the clue X marks the spot I was even more convinced that had something to do with it. I fail to see how X marks the spot is relevant to the hunt at this stage, with this clue he has given. There appears to be nothing in the stanza that narrows it do roughly to one geographic location. There is actually a 'Treasure Island' in Florida. which would never have lead you to a bowling alley. What would make you search for TEN PIN LANES instead of TEN PIN BOWLING?
I guess it is what it is, but it gives us a glimpse into Lukas' mindset. I was expecting each clue to be very precise, and each answer to a clue a logical step to the next. It all to random for my liking, but Lukas created the hunt and we must play by his rules. Surely if he was directing us to Treasure Island Insurance, 736, 855 or 852 would be more suitable solutions Treasure Island, FL 33706, United States Q736+G6 Treasure Island, Florida, United States +1 855-852-0223

The next +2. Id it is referring to the 381 it could translate to 381 +2=383 3812 Or it’s referring to 10 as the number since 10+2 equals twelve. Which is what 381 adds up to. And if it is ten then it would be next to two other tens which would be a turkey.

Yes, that is my reaction too. But in all fairness, it is nice that Lukas is adjusting the difficulty level by releasing hints!!

Ok, so here's my thought about piece 2. He says: The next plus two is found Astride a treasure on its own Spare no expense, search everywhere Beside a bird that’s rarely thrown So I think Ten Pin Lanes is the answer to the last two lines. But if you zoom out, you'll see that location is pretty close to Treasure Island. And Treasure Island has two main roads running through it: 697 lengthwise and 107 widthwise (is that a word?) So to me those roads are "astride a treasure" that is very loosely "beside a bird that's rarely thrown." (Loosely because the bowling alley itself isn't a bird that's rarely thrown, which is why I never would have found it without the screen shot.) I think he's saying piece 2 is "the next" but "plus two" refers to the answer to the stanza. So I would conclude that piece 2 is either 695 or 105. I've tried all combinations I could think of using 313, one of these two numbers, four digits that Coy listed but got nothing. Or maybe the middle number to use is 691 because 693 truly is right beside the bowing alley, and maybe Lukas didn't notice that the number of the road that splits Treasure Island isn't 693, it's 697.
Edit: 699 is lengthwise, which would make the number to use 697.

Astride a treasure on its own > Treasure Island Insurance is in the adjacent lot (which identifies the Pasadena location)
The problem with the insurance co being the answer to this line is that 'astride' means one on each side. TII isn't astride the bowling alley, it's next to.

No, dashes are not required. Just 10 digits.
