“Loosing” as it setting them loose? Or “losing’ as in needs to be found?
Loosing intentionally for you to find
This is pretty cool idea!
The website tells you to go to the Facebook group. The Facebook group is closed. That’s a lousy way to do an event. So we’re all sitting around waiting and hoping for our join-the-group request to be approved. And then, once approved, I take it we have to do a keyword search of forum messages to find the hints applicable to Humboldt. I hope every one of them includes the keyword “Humboldt” rather than individual city names.
It is a world-wide treasure hunt; you do need to put in some effort.
And many people blocked because of hatred for liking another person’s post many moons ago.
I’m in it
I lost my marbles a few years back, I’m glad I have another chance to regain them…
I’m excited to be “loosing” marbles around Humboldt too!!!
