The third Overtext Treasure hunt is weeks away.

- launch 22nd of February -


Did you think overtext was a waste of code and time?
Did you resent 100 gg for something you can't see?
Is overtext useless?




We're putting overtext to the test again, and returning to the successful formula used in the first treasure hunt almost exactly a year ago.



February will see the possibly only use of overtext, treasure hunts.
This time the prize will be a boardgame or boardgame online shop voucher...
we will also have 100 as a prize; (contributions of are welcome)



Starting with a geeklist in February a clue will (hopefully) lead geeks to find a user with overtext and further clues that will lead to the solution to a baffling mystery.
The winning geek will have to provide the correct trail to claim the prize.


There will be a microbadge for participants.



all gg donations here go into the treasure!



edit: Overtext = Got 100 gg? Expect to soon? Want to buy something totally useless?

I'm eager to participate in this.

Will the exact starting date be announced shortly ahead of time, like it was in the first hunt, or do we need to start scouring every GeekList posted from now throughout the month of Feb.?

New player/searcher here. How is the game played? I was looking for some explanation but did not see anything which may not bode well for me playing the gme, either.

Subscribe to this guild page
http://www.boardgamegeek.com/guild/1127 Something will get posted that tells the start date and a vague idea of where to start and what to do.
It's a mystery to almost everyone, except the Regional Man of Mystery, of course.
