I think RizzGod was playing with people who didn't know what they were doing...lol.

For sure. Even so, I don't know what they saw in him. He wasn't good at challenges and he wasn't strategic. He also bragged bout how long he held onto his idol. That's booooring play. Give me a Russell any day - find an idol, play it then go find it again. I would have been much more impressed with Rizz if would have showed his idol finding skills than his sitting on it skills.

To each his own, I guess, but I saw NOTHING legend about Rizz. Nada.

Very good points!

I’m fairly cynical about a handful of particular and popular authors who shall remain nameless, who have had quite a few movies produced from their books with what in my never humble opinion have been embarrassing results in many cases.

But those authors made a lot of money after already making a ton on best sellers year after year. Money talks.

Hello! Please point me in the right direction if this page is not the appropriate location to recruit stamp carvers.

ForeverStrong6 and I are planning Route 66 Letterboxing Road trip event along the Historic Sunset Hwy (Hwy 2) in Washington State this upcoming September. I am happy to assist with material and shipping costs; I would need the stamps by Aug. 1, 2026. Thank you for considering my request!

Stamp Requests that I don't have images for:
Grand Canyon Themed Stamps
Dog and Cat stamps
Route 66 playlist song stamps (15 song choices)

Stamp Requests that I do have black line images for:
*Green book images (9 images but I don't need that many stamps, these seem like they would be hard to carve because they have text)
*Drive the Speed limit (8 images)
*Burma Shave Products ( 6 images)
*President Lincoln stamps (6 images)
*Sitgreaves pass (2 images)Route Map (15 images)

I'm pretty sure I have that solved. I can be there in an hour and a half - but I would be searching in the dark! Hopefully it will still be there on the weekend.

Pay attention to the top; you don't need to be there until Feb 1 between 10am and 4pm for that one. It is not a "race", I feel it is 'everyone who comes will be entered into a drawing' or something like that.

There is a "Stamp Swap" board which would be a good place to start.
You could also set up a tracker describing the stamps you want, and post a link on the Stamp Swap board.

Yeah, it does seem like everyone who comes will be entered into the drawing. There is a statement in the how-to that says:

Multiple participants may locate the Idol and register during the time listed.

I just hope the locations aren’t super crowded with everyone looking for the same idol so you end up waiting in line. Especially given how easy the “clues” seem to be. Very easy to solve with a quick Google search.

However, I did laugh at the Kansas clue:

In the birthplace

I typically read the book first and then see the movie. I’m often disappointed by the movie version, but the Harry Potter movies were great. And then there’s The Shining—one of the few movies that was even better than the book.

I also started reading the Game of Thrones books as they came out, long before the TV series was a gleam in George R. R. Martin’s eye. I enjoyed the books but LOVED the series, even though I shouted at the TV a few times “that’s not how the story went!” Of course, since Martin never finished writing the books, I eventually stopped shouting.

If you are requesting specific images a tracker would be the easiest way to get what you need signed up for - then folks wouldn't carve the same thing. You can also add links in the tracker of the images you want.

I then link my tracker to the Stamp Swap request. :)

Echo'ing Wise Wanderer's comments. This is the way. That way when someone opted to carve a specific stamp you could update the tracker and avoid repeats.

The message wasn't even sent through an AQ account, so I'm not even sure they had an account. Neither the trailname nor email address he provided maps to any AQ account. *shrug*

This just prompts more questions than it answers! If they are not associated with AQ, why reach out to you? Curiouser and curiouser. Are they on LbNA? I'm not trying to dox them, but the whole thing is mysterious. Have they hidden boxes? Inquiring minds and all that...

Am I the only one who is addicted to this game show?

NO, You are not! We love it and have watched every version we could get our hands on.

Our favorite host is Rodger Corser, The Traitors Australia. Next is Claudia Winkleman, she hosted three series of the UK version of The Traitors (2022–2025) and the 2025 celebrity edition.

The hardest ending, by far, is the 2024 UK Series 2. Ouch!

Not as much a fan of the American "celebrities" (Big Brother, Housewives, Bachelor, etc) versions but we'll take what we can get. The British celebrities version, however, was quite good.

I have seen most of them, still haven't seen the new season of the UK one yet. It's not on peacock, but I do have a the BBC site where I can watch it using my VPN. Once the US is done, I'm planning on watching it.

I also still haven't seen any of the Canadian ones. I have to use CCT and a VPN for that also.

I am a fan of Big Brother, the Challenge, Drag Race and the amazing race, so I know a lot of those players. (just as I wrote that, It dawned on me that I need to get out more.........lol)

I never saw the housewives, but I have seen a few bachelor seasons because I find it as more of a comedy, but I was never really invested in the show, if it was on, I would watch.

I'm loving this season of the traitors. They have the dumbest faithful's on it, it cracks me up. Don't even get me started on creepy dead eyes Colton....lol.

I cant wait for when they have 'regular' players on the US traitors, I prefer when its new players from no other reality shows. But I love Alan Cummings, he cracks me up.

The British celebrities version, however, was quite good.

I agree, but I didn't even know who any of them were...lol.

If they are a social bunch, they might do what I did and have a letterboxing retirement party. I did a silent auction for the good stuff (Staedtlers etc) and gave away the rest. It was fun! And I gained a LOT of storage space.

Playing Wingspan, doing puzzles that are a little too hard [1000 piece], ordering groceries, cooking and hoping to see birds at the feeders. Our area doesn't seem to have letterboxing anymore. Oh, and online dancing sometimes. Normally I'd be out walking every day. It's been as low as minus 10, something I don't recall ever happening before in Buffalo. Today we suited up and went to Niagara Falls. I wore spikes on my boots. Once the sun came out, it was beautiful!

I should have done the bills. But the puzzle got my attention. It's in the same room with the desk and the stack of papers that need tending. I'm doing 1000 pieces, a Renoir. You?
