Jack is Back... Can you catch him?
 

Alas, it's true! Jack Frost has snuck his way back into the Caribbean and he's trying to turn it into his own personal winter wonderland! The Caribbean will need you're help to catch him, and a handsome price will be paid to all those who heed the call! Join the hunt for Jack Frost this Saturday and make sure the Caribbean stays nice and toasty this winter!

Each time you catch Jack, say "It's like the sky is raining Gold Doubloons!" and take a picture of ye and Jack together. Then post it on this thread and you will recieve 100 doubloons!* Jack be only hiding in one place for so long though, and the rewards to be givin' out tis slim, so ye need be hurrying if ye wish to get the riches!

*Doubloons are the cash used in POF's Casino.

When: Saturday, December 12, 2009 @ 2PM EST to 4:30PM EST
Where: I not be letting Jack give away me location that easily!

Ye' be able to catch Jack as many times as you like, and each user that participates will be put into a random selection to win a bonus 1,000 doubloons!

UPDATE: A kind anonymous patron gave me a fair share of doubloons, which leaves my total at 15,000! This means that with the 1,000 bonus included there are 140 shares of 100 doubloons to go around!

Clue - Ocean
 

Hey frosty! What exactly are you up to Right now?

Don't you dare tell them where I'm hiding...

You mean don't tell them what Ocean you're on?

Don't tell them anything! I can't work my magic when people are chasing me around for a bounty!

Well, I'll try not To tell them then.

How do I know you won't? You gave away your little leprechaun friend.

Because, you're actually on a mission. Sorry ol' Jack only sailed the Seas looking for a place to hide his gold. I wanted my share of it.

Well that's a good enough reason then, can I get back to my freezing of the islands?

Wait, I want to ask you a few Things.

Now what would you have to ask me? Can you not see that I'm trying to turn this dusky, warm place into a winter paradise?

I just want to make sure we're clear here. I can't tell them what Ocean you're on?

NO!

So I can't tell them you're on _ _ _ _ _ _?

No you cannot, now good day sir!

Sneaky ol' me just tricked him into letting you have the ocean... I just had to be very very subtle about it. Try to figure it out!

Clue #1: Jack Frost didn't tell you, only me.
Clue #2: I made sure that my clue was a capital idea.
Clue #3:I Tried To Make It Easy.

Very sneaky Jack,I think I'm getting it!Reminds me of the clues in the Redwall books.

Sorry mates, I was unknowingly dragged off to move a family member into a new house without any forewarning. The event will be at the same time, only tomorrow, even if I have to tie myself to my computer chair. :laughks2:

Thats okey with me Jack,I forgot myself.I will try to make it.Also R ... O ... T...S.......-?

I also never said it was in order. :bookishfj7:

I think I figured out the server :D

I just did too.

So, same time different day?

Know the server.
How we supposed to know where on server?

Follow the clues.

they are not very specific but I think it might be a server with a name like jack Is I could be wrong

@TSC: Yep, same timeframe, possibly longer as I won't have any time restraints that I do know about, only we'll be doing it tomorrow.
@Aaron: I'll be giving out clues to my location, and there will be a new location every 30 minutes.
@Bart: Nope, the name is not anything like Jack I if that's what you meant.

I was still pretty clueless not much of a diference in finding ye

Can Jack hide at sea?If so pleae make it a privateer so I can look. :p

I got the server :D Now, all thats left is to find that little winter rascal!

EDIT: Question, when we say the phrase, do we say it out loud, or just whisper it?

Jack will always be on land somewhere, he's not fond of having to be near unfrozen waters...

Either be fine, that frosty fellow has good enough ears that either will bind him to the spot.

I also just received another anonymous donation which puts me up to 216 shares of gold to give away!

Clue #1
 

The hunt has begun. Good luck mates, and remember to post your screenshots of catching me here!

A few guidelines to keep the game fair.

Final clue of the Day
 

Ye have foiled me plans again and again,
Some of them ended before they could even begin.

But this plan I know, will make me victorious for sure,
With a beast so strong, no single person can endure.

It be a necessary task, to kill my friend first.
Lest the reward be lost, and the gold turn to dust.

But who is he you ask, well I'll give you a clue,
He reminds me of up north, where plants are dead too.

So if ye dare try to find me for one final time,
Ye may need a crew, to stop this grand crime.
