Just thinking out loud for sec... If all you needed to win this hunt was the poem, then why would we now need a book? Is it necessary? Does this mean you have to have the first key to move forward, because without a book, this is impossible to solve? This is a possible contradiction to the original launch information. Or... is the book the second feedback mechanism? It's not necessary, but it helps. Thoughts? EDIT: I've resolved this. Nothing to see here, move along.

This may be saying we need a book for stanza 6 (1001 nights) or maybe stanza 7 is essential to key 2 and the book that is required is Harry Potter. Or both.

Is this another clue? efanton and anybody else outside of the U.S.A., Key 1 is a 10 digit phone number for dialing within the U.S.A. Add whatever numbers you need to contact the U.S.A. and then add the "10 digit number". Dial it and you will hear a recording explaining another detail to this hunt.

Those working on Key 2, what do you think we are looking for? At first, I thought another number, but now I'm not so sure. Maybe the upcoming question/hint might address this.

Yeah, I've given up my theory that there is a feedback mechanism for both keys. Even though Lukas did imply that, his words don't seem to be exact. I've reached this conclusion from the solutions to the previous hunts.
For example:
Mini Hunt 1: "twice round and through"
This line actually does not relate to a windsor knot at all. The videos about how to tie one show that you don't go twice around and through. In the hunt, the line relates in a general way to a knot, of which windsor is one of.
Mini Hunt 2: "river red with blood"
I get how red with blood has to do with Sacramento, but there's no relation to a river.
"a Spanish legend cleaved in half...by 50 cents."
The county is separated by 50 (Highway 50) but has nothing to do with 'cents.'
I'm not complaining at all, but it made me conclude that some of his solutions are more due to generalizations and associations than actual meanings of the words.
So I don't think anymore that there's a feedback mechanism for Key 2. And I agree, I don't think it's a number.
I'm trying to remember this while trying to find Key 2.

I’m thinking it’s a password or phrase personally. Susb8383...did you see the login fields when you found the chest?

^ My thinking, too. A password, which actually makes it a bit harder since it could be anything.

A lot of passwords have to be a mixture of letters/numbers/symbols. I think we can rule out just letters or just numbers, etc.

Well, I'm totally stumped about Key 2. I think I have to wait for a hint...

If you're totally stumped then what was that single tree post about?

Stanza 6. I believe Key 2 needs more than just Stanza 6 to be solved.

Stanza 6. I believe Key 2 needs more than just Stanza 6 to be solved. Yes, that is my guess too. In fact, look at key #1 and how many steps were required to get it. Perhaps key #2 is "easier" but I still doubt it is a quick solve. More likely several levels... I just don't see why he would split the effort 90/10. Perhaps a 70/30 split or something like that is more likely. Thus, we have a lot more work ahead to get #2...

Stanza 6. I believe Key 2 needs more than just Stanza 6 to be solved. if you know what stanzas you used to find the chest, that would pretty much leave the stanzas needed for key 2.
