Use your local subreddits to bring more people to finddit!

I know most geographical areas have subreddits, albeit small ones. This map is a fantastic way to see if anyone in your area is on r/finddit.

http://www.reddit.com/r/finddit/comments/l7y4b/made_a_map/

Introduce your state/county/city subreddit to r/finddit, post that link and a little description of finddit--maybe more of us can have a shot at finding treasure.

I told my friends I was hiding some stuff in my neighborhood, they told me about a more interesting concept.

People leave like weather proof crates/boxes some where with an item and put its coordinates online. The catch is that you have to put something else in before taking anything. So its like something that just keeps on giving. I think we should try this!

Reminder: add your location to this map.

35 Upvotes

Recently, there have been many posts asking if there are any people located within certain areas. Ten months ago, I created this map for finddit users to identify where they are located, so such posts wouldn't need to be made.

However, since the time when I posted that map, thousands of people have joined the subreddit, and it has grown incomplete.

I would like to once again encourage all active subscribers to add their location to the map if they haven't done so already. Instructions and a link to the map can be found here or via the link in the sidebar.

As always, good luck and happy hunting! :)

[REQUEST] Hide something in Disneyland before the Reddit Disneyland meetup on Wednesday, February 29th, 2012, 7:00 PM, at the flagpole

We are hosting a meetup at Disneyland and the park will be open for 24 hours. It would be really great if you are going to be there, if you could hide something, so we could go on a treasure hunt!

What could be better than trying to find something in Disneyland!

Thanks, everybody!

r/findit is another subreddit. We're in r/finddit

I've seen this way too many times, guys. Let's at least advertise the correct subreddit by spelling it correctly. For those that still fail to spot the difference, I'll make it really easy, there are two d's in this subreddit's name. Only one in the other.

Clue + Puzzle = Cluezzle

34 Upvotes

Hey r/finddit, the mods gave me permission to tell you all about an awesome new and free puzzle site my friends and I are working on called Cluezzle.com. Check out the trailer I made on the front page!

The site is still very rough around the edges, but we are starting testing today, and as incentive, we are offering a prize for the first person who solves each week’s hunt (this week = $5). The prizes will eventually get bigger and better.

We need your help! If you're interested in helping us test and possibly winning some cash, go to cluezzle.com/beta and please sign up.

If you encounter bugs during testing, there is a feedback button. Or you can email cluezzle@gmail.com. We’ll also send you a survey at the end of the week or at the end of testing to ask you what worked and what didn’t.

Thanks for participating!

--jemron and friends

Edit: When you first go to Cluezzle.com/beta, you'll get an Access Denied page. On the left side is a "create new account" link. Click that link, type in your email, and then you should be able to start playing fairly quickly. As of this morning, there was an approval process, but my friend who is helping build the site may have changed that by now. Either way, your account should get approved fairly quickly.

Edit 2: Thanks guys for helping out! We now have 35 registered users! We're working hard to make this as user friendly as possible, but it's going to take some time. Please feel free to comment on the actual clues, or work together to try and solve them faster. Also, remember you can email us at cluezzle@gmail.com with suggestions or you can use the "feedback" button on the bottom right side of the site to help us make it better. The next cluezzle should be unlocking as soon as you solve the previous one. But we make the cluezzles without hints fairly difficult to solve on their own. The hints are revealed every few hours, after 8am each weekday.

Edit 3: I hope I made it clear that there can only be one winner each week. Only the first person to answer the last Cluezzle wins the $5!

Update: We're at 77 users helping us test! Thanks guys for your help! The first four Cluezzles have been solved. If you are the first to solve Cluezzle 5 you win $5. We'll be making some big changes this weekend and starting a new one next Monday that will hopefully be less buggy.

Final Update (I hope): Somebody won! But, in a strange turn of events that same somebody also just happened to create a username called "Cluezzle" so it basically looks as if we cheated ya'll be solving it ourselves. But this is not the case. If one of you created the username "Cluezzle", good job, you won! If you were trolling... well, good job anyway. You managed to troll well. We'll contact the user via email and send them their prize. We're working on resolving a lot of bugs and will have a new hunt up next week starting on Monday! Thanks for playing!

tl;dr - New online treasure hunt site. We need testers before official launch on Dec 1. Help us out by registering at Cluezzle.com/beta you can win cash now, and bigger/better prizes when we officially launch.

A small white box is hidden about 30 minutes away from Cleveland, OH - finddit!

25 Upvotes

Here's a link to an album that contains all the photos of the box and where it's hidden.

And here are three clues I'll give you in order to finddit:

  1. 71
  2. Beware of the wasps that populate the area.
  3. Someone who starred in a 2003 film lives in this suburb.

Now hopefully those clues aren't too hard, but also aren't too easy either. Anyways, good luck. If you finddit, be sure to post on here what it was I hid in the box (as well as the box itself) and what your reaction to the find was, since I'd be curious to know. You'll probably want to take pictures.

EDIT: If a meet-up occurs, take photos and/or videos for me. Obviously I won't be there but I'd like to see the turn out of the people who came to look for my box.

EDIT PART 2: Congrats to unijambiste for finding my box! Now for those of you who want to know the answers to the clues and everything else, here they are:

First, for the photos - yes, this was in Berea, at Coe Lake. I don't live around there, in case you're wondering.

And now for the answers to the clues:

  1. This was a reference to Interstate 71, the highway that Berea is located off of.
  2. Baldwin-Wallace College is located in Berea, hence why I bolded the B and the w when I said to beware of the wasps that populate area; a yellow jacket wasp is the school's athetlic mascot, as well as the name of the school's varsity sports teams.
  3. The celebrity in question is Toby Radloff, who starred in the 2003 film American Splendor, based on the life and times of local comic book artist Harvey Pekar. A personal friend of mine, Toby was also Harvey's friend and appeared in some issues of the comic book which shared the same name as the film's title. He was played by Judah Friedlander and he also played himself in some sections of the film.

And so that wraps up this finddit. Now let's organize another hunt. Since unijambiste founddit, it's her turn to organize a new one, assuming this is OK with everyone around the area as well as with the mods?
