HELP!! When the oracle sends you to the site of the treasure do you have to play all the quizzes there to find it??? That could take days!!

Am I missing something?

Yes, truefaithmom, you're missing something. There are some other clues that will help you figure out what. But you should know that you're not going to get the treasure today, because I just got it an hour ago (go me!) and it's only given out once every 24 hours.

Oh well done CellarDoor! My first post on here, so please be kind!!!

I've been playing on funtrivia for nearly a year now, and have only just registered on here since I started on the Treasure Hunt. Have 6 clues so far, and a few hints from this thread . Nothing is making any sense at all but no doubt, like people say, it will all come clear in the end!!!!

Enjoying the frustration of it all, and my class scores have gone up quite a lot in the past week!!!

It really does all become clear in the end. I had a couple months of blind confusion, a week or two of waiting for a single clue, and then a few days of certainty, purpose, and being beaten to the treasure by minutes. Just make sure you save all your clues!

(And thanks for the congratulations.)

I got a great deal further today, but I can't figure out what to do about the monsters

I did find the oracle though

I have all the clues except for these:

8,14, 21, 22, 28, 34, 35, and maybe 40?

I'm sure there's something very important there. I've been playing for ages. Or at least it feels like that.

LOL I've had Clue 35 twice already today, plus I had it yesterday and last week too! In fact it seems to be the only clue I do keep getting

OK, somebody a little advice please. Now I know you can't share clues so I can't really go into detail but I seem to be going round in circles right now. I was pointed in the general direction of a quiz but the category it's in has several quizzes. Is it normal to be told to do a quiz in the hunt for the treasure or am I reading my clues wrong.

Yes, you could very well be told to play a quiz. The treasure hunt is in Quizzyland after all!

I had most of the clues including my Magic number saved on a notepad page on my desktop and then my PC crashed and died! I had to go out and buy a whole new computer system and start all over again so it's been slow going for me; but now I'm back up to 11 clues...

Me neither, apart from the treasure! I'm saving all the clues I get, and hoping that sometime they will make sense to me

Am I allowed to ask? Are the clues given completely randomly, or if two or so people follow the same path will they each get the same clue?

I finally found the treasure on Aug.20! Everyone was right telling me to be nice to the cows! Be patient, that is all I can say. It does take a long time. The clues are made for you only,that is why you can't share them.You can find them in the hourly quizzes and in the insta quiz also. They can pop up at any time,any place.Good luck to all still searching!

Well, congratulations IAMMAGIK7. I haven't picked up many clues lately, but that's because I stay mostly here in the forums. I must get out more.

I got 2 clues and at first had no idea what they were for. After finding out about the treasure hunt i've been playing round the clock for 3 days now and haven't gotten another clue. Is this common or am I missing something? I play everything I can think of just to try to get a clue. Do you only get them like every month or something?

I have only picked up clues in the quizz forum, nothing in the community forums. Congratulations IAMMAGIK7. I will be patient and keep waiting....

Oh dear, if they are also giving clues in the InstaQuiz, I could have missed them, as I can't get the whole thing on my screen at once, and I haven't been scrolling up and down Best start doing that then

Congrats on finding the treasure! I am trying to be patient

I had the same thing happen with my computer about a month after the Hunt started. I don't know why, but I decided RIGHT before it crashed to write everything down on paper. Whew! You have my sympathy and once again, I learned the good old pen and paper still triumph over electronics at times. As long as I don't forget where my notes are. I keep my T.Hunt papers close at hand, priorities you know.

Ok, It's been 2 more days since my last post and I've been playing like crazy and still haven't gotten another clue. There is a treasure chest that pops up on my average hourly game but it always has the same thing in it. Will it ever change? And is this for real or are all of you laughing at us dummies who are waiting for clues we'll never get? lol
Starting to feel kinda left out here especially since lady1 got 3 off the bat. Am I blind

I think if you read everything about the Treasure Hunt, you will see that we just have to be very very patient All I know is that no-one can help anyone else! So far I have got sixteen clues, played hundreds of quizzes and games, and have no idea still what I am doing.....but it's fun

It all takes patience, lorrierae. I've received 9 clues since the hunt started, so I know they're out there. I just don't get around the site as much as others do. I think the trick is to check out all areas of FT. Good Luck
