When you submit your 5-point methods, please keep each point short and clear. When I get a multiple-part statement, it is hard for me to 'rate' it or give a helpful 'review'.
For example (nothing to do with this hunt), if you said, "There is a code in the leaves, and it means we have to use the borders on page 17." Maybe there is a code in the leaves but it has nothing to do with page 17, or it does have something to do with page 17 but not the borders, or page 17 is important, but there is not a code in the leaves. You can see how convoluted and confusing an accurate or helpful response becomes!
Thank you for all your ideas. Keep them coming. And more hints to come.
Happy Easter to those who celebrate it :-)

Are we allowed 5 points per day, or only 1 submission with up to 5 points per day?
So in other words, are we allowed to send you five different messages with one point each in a single day?
thx.

I prefer 5 at one time, just to limit the number of messages I have to answer. I'm getting a lot of messages! |

Today is the last day to submit method ideas. I will reply as soon as I can.
Casper's secret will be posted today, and if the hunt is not solved, another clue tomorrow :-)
Good luck!

I just found out I overlooked a message, so please be sure to notify me if you don't get a response from me within a few hours (overnight might be longer!). I don't mean to miss any messages, but with so many coming in, I did miss one.
And I want to remind everyone that Casper's hints are to Clue #3, not to the hunt itself. There is more to that clue than first meets the eye :-)
Clue #4 is coming Wednesday!
Good luck!
-FHH

One more thing...I have been getting a lot of methods that include the periodic table. This was used for a clue, but it is not part of the solution to the hunt.
Another rabbit hole you can ignore!

Did you post Casper's secret? Wasn't sure since you posted another Casper image around the time you said the secret will be revealed later today. Thanks.

I just received a correct solution to both part 1 and part 2, so I have a winner!
I will announce the winning team after I get some more information.
The hunt will remain open for a 2nd prize drawing
Details to follow...
Congratulations to the winners!

Congratulations to the winners!!! I was really hoping to solve this one but I can’t wait to hear the answer 😂 I have a lot of puzzle learning to do.

The hunt will remain open until April 30th when I will draw from any correct submissions for a 2nd place prize. At that time, I will post the solution as well as the explanations for the clues.
I will post clue #4 tomorrow instead of Wednesday. So anyone who wants to continue to work on the hunt and have their name entered in the drawing, continue to send me your solution ideas.
