Treasure Hunt - booty found and dug up
There is a set I need but in true Pirate tradition the set is buried on a secret island and you have to follow a series of clues to find it.
Here's how it works.
I'll give you some clues. You follow those clues and when you figure out what the set is you post your answer as a whisper in my box. I want the name of the set and how you arrived at that conclusion. This is to prevent the clever dicks posting every set I don't yet have.
DO NOT SEND ANY SETS. I just want your guess.
These are your clues......
Good Luck.

Entries from non-pirates accepted but if a pirate doesn't win there'll be a keelhauling and a compulsory training course in treasure finding.

Update: All guesses so far are incorrect.
STOP SENDING SETS!!!!

I have only sent you 14 sets, why are you so touchy?
JBVisions on Aug 05, 2007
LOL!
We have a winner. ZsaZsa correctly guessed the set.

*sigh* Nice one Jaybee! ;0) Post this the morning after Tamashii's party when we're all hungover why don't you! :-p

I told you not to mix beer and whiskey!

Well done!

OK answers for those who have tried so hard but were barking up completely the wrong tree. To spare any blushes I won't name names but Good Heavens guys!!!!
Clue 1. The Biography.
The guy is a Chess Grand Master. Chess, Knights, Castles. Yes this could have pointed to Dresden Tournament but it was a bit obvious dontcha think.
Clue 2. The Web Site
The site was about weather but its name is Damocles. For those who have a grasp on mythology Damocles was famous for his sword.
Clue 3. The Photograph.
It's a picture of the Spinnaker Tower in Portsmouth. Tower. Tower Grove. It was not meant to represent a snowman missing a stomach!

Oh yes, and if you still can't get it......
Tower Grove Melee

Seems a few of you enjoyed this even though it did make your head hurt. I'll do another one next time I need something.

It's not so much that it was after Tamashii's, but it was posted and solved while I was asleep. Darn that need to allow my body to recover from a hard days work sitting at a computer writing instructions and fiddling with pixels.
JSun on Aug 05, 2007
I was so close. I only got all the clues and the winning set wrong...

JBVisions on Aug 05, 2007
Oh I will. it's an object lesson in the way people's minds work. Some need to see a psychiatrist fast! LOL!

Next time I'll try and come up with something that will allow everyone to have a go no matter what time zone they are in.
