While we want to keep this as much as an individual challenge as possible, we understand that you may get stuck along the way. Instead of throwing up your hands and giving up, lean on your NRTeam Members for assistance. We've started a brand new section in our forums (you're in it) just for the NRTreasure Hunt.
PLEASE NOTE: We are asking that members DO NOT publicly post answers to clues anywhere on the site. This ruins the fun for all involved. If you are answering a question, we are asking you using the Private Message system. Use the forums to ask for help, to find others who need your help and to post your progress. Thank you in advance for your cooperation. |

I found five clues, and when I found the fifth, it told me it was the last clue... I followed very logical steps. Where could I have gone wrong? Am I really missing 19 clues?
Also, if we have hints to give, it says to private message, but private messaging is turned off in this board...
Thanks!

| I did the same thing as you two. First, found what I thought was the first answer but when I followed it I missed 20 clues along the way somewhere. Then, I combed through every artist and book from this month and last but found nothing. Now, I've found half the clues and it's taken me back to the finish. I'm lost again but now halfway. |

Hey Everyone!
Fun to see people diving right in...and getting stuck from the beginning. Hehe. Some clues are easy, others are a little more difficult to figure out. NRT serch is going to help you out a ton in this contest.
If you have found a random clue out there, you are probably jumping somewhere in the middle and you'll eventually wind up at the last page with incomplete clues. To start from the beginning, just go to this page where you'll find the first clue.
http://www.newreleasetuesday.com/nrtreasurehunt2009.php
As far as a hint, it's a little too early for me to start shelling out hints, but I will say this: pay attention to every word in a clue. If a word is bolded or italicized, it means something.
PM is disabled on the boards, just because we want you using the NRTeam Profile PM system. You can send a private message to any member using the link at the top of their profile. It probably wouldn't hurt to give a head's up that you're willing to help others by posting that here.
Have fun and let me know what you think as you go through the hunt. |

Also, I'm getting a lot of guesses already, but not too many are close.
The three word phrase uses each of the 24 letters in the clue once. So there are 24 letters in the 3 words. That should help reduce the amount of guesses I'm getting. |
