Default Dead Mans Chest Hunt About to Start!

Dead Mans Chest Hunt About to Start!

Tomarrow.... Mon.- May 26th at 5PM Central Daylight Savings Time I will be Posting the First Clue ( 1 Clue Each Day ) in My 13 Clues on a Dead Mans Chest Hunt on " The Quest For Treasure Forum" .
First..... I want to Thank RON from Windy City Detector Sales. Gregory called Ron about the Hunt and His donation is 50% off the Price of our Main Prize ( Detector-Pro " Pirate " Detector ) . Ron is One of our Great Sponsors so If you need a New Detector or accessories or anything else then Call, Email or even send a Carrier Pigeon Message and they will take care of You. They are Way Cool so Check them Out for your Treasure Hunting Needs !



Next....
For those that do not Know..... Our Master Pirate bda has genorously Donated 3 One Of a Kind Local Union Pirate T Shirts from Bermuda ! There will be 1 awarded with each of the 3 Top Prizes. These are a treasure by themselves ! Also... 2 Ghost Crew members have donated a Gift to be given as prizes so there will be 5 Prizes for the taking.
THE PRIZES.....
Main Prize is a Detector-Pro " Pirate " Metal Detector !
2nd Prize.... is a Vibra-Probe 570 Pinpointer !
3rd Prize.... is a Heavy Duty Long Handled Scoop !
4th Prize... is a Miniature Mango Treasure Chest with a working Telescope and a Little Pouch with a few Pirate Coins !
5th Prize.... 15 or so 1/4 to 1/2 inch Turquoise Nuggetts. These are Real !
NOW... The Main Prize will be Won by a drawing at the end of the Hunt. You must participate in a Fair portion of the Hunt to be eligible for this. I know with all the Different Time Zones and Work Schedules and Stuff that everyone can't get on eveyday.. Just Give it a Fair and Honest Go and You will be IN. At the End of The Hunt... I will write down all the name of those on board and put them in a container and draw out a name for the winner.
The 4 Remaining Prizes will be for the Most points won during the Hunt. For each Clue Solved, 1 Point is awarded and the person with the Most points at the end will get the 2nd Prize and so on down the line. Any and ALL Ties will be decided with a TIE BREAKINg Clue. As with All the other Clues.. The First One to Give the Correct Answer Wins. Should the Winner of The Main Prize also have the most points then it will move down the line to who has the next most and so on. Tho This is called " 13 Clues on a Dead Mans Chest Hunt"... There is a Total of 17 Points of wich 4 have already been Won in the Last Month while putting our Ship and Crew together. As It Stands Now.....
bitterkarm.. 1 Point for namin our ship
ANNE... 1 Point for pickin our ships pet
Bryan Jon... 1 Point for namin the Ships Pet
Buster... 1 Point for Entertainment
So there It It.... If You Have ANY Questions then PM me and I Will Answer Them. Read This Well as IT Will Not Be Repeated Tommarow... We will Go Right Into the First Clue !
For the New Mates comin Aboard......
Ye be sailin with a Crew of Scurrvy, Cut Ye Throat, Steal the Gold right out of ye mouth Pirates that er sailed the high sea's ! If ye be weak o eart or sissified then ye best stay land locked ! YE BEEN WARNED !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Capt. TIN

Aye Capt,and other forms of scurvy scallawags on this Tin Ghost,I'm joining the crew with your permission but if I hear anyone wanting to 'sing and dance with the Pirates of Penzance'other than maybe the pretty wenches aboard,I'll lead a mutiny before they can sneak up on my backside.A pirate's gotta do what a pirate's gotta do.
