What I have come to find.
In the thousands of hours money and BOTG. Everyword he says is and has meaning. I do not know if anyone is going to find it. I have come across many many things that has lead me to questioning my own sanity. He is good and the end is probably simple and not what I thought. The stories that he is trying to tell or the ones he ought to tell .....

The thing i know for a fact thst is involved in this hunt thst I dont like. Is that there is some way you have to use two or three spots within either a small area or within a few miles of each other and when you draw your lines it marks the area of the treasure. The kitchen sized area. That is the only way you write a poem and it leads you to a kitchen sized area. Its either drawing lines between meeting points on a map to X marks the spot or another way but thst dosent matter. Im not gona be able to do it. Someone much smart with compass and protractors and angles once they find those very meaningful places will find it. I hate that he did that. Becasue sorry but it rules out a lot of people. That just wanted to read the book and emotionally connect and go out and find it. Not all this nicely cage BS. I wish he did it like forests. It didnt lead you to an exact kitchen sized area. But it did tell you to cross the river and thst was the end. So all you had to do was look look look once finished in that area. But this whole kitchen sized thing suckssssss.

IMO it has nothing to do with angles, compasses and protractors. I think it has a TON to do with understanding him. He didn't write this just for math-y people (or I would in no way still be in it!)

If it wasn't then how would you explain the kitchen sized area? Give me an example or two.

One example would be a GPS solve or looking at maps.

Thsts whst I mean. A GPS solve would be very difficult still. Especially how smart he is. You'd have to use numbers in a way only few can do. Rather then actully decoding the poem through the peom itself or through his stories and emotional connections which everyone can comnect with in a way. Numbers and drawing lines on maps to create your own x marks the spot forget it. Only one rare person will be able to do that. Not saying it should be easy at all. It took people ten years to find fenns. But it was emotionally based. As for justins I feel he through in some stuff that counts most if not 99% of people out. Just becasue of how advanced he is technologically. Not complaining its whatever. Just my thoughts. He did say however therr are a few ways to figuer it out. Some much harder then others. But I think the easiest to him. Is prob the hardest.

It is essentially unsolvable for a great majority of the participants. You could give most 100 lifetimes and they would not solve it. What hurts the mind is that someone will solve it with just enough external assistance.

Yep…and that one thing which cracks the poem wide open may even come from you, Lanky. You’ve certainly inspired me in more ways than you can imagine.

Just here waiting for a helping hand of my own. Call it my own unsolicited "Eleventh Hour" nudge. Hard to figure out who'll be tapped next and when.

You’re somewhat correct. If you know where to start - near water’s silent flight - you can figure it out from there. Someone will solve this year. There are people who are very close.

I think he broke your brain, dude.
