The FOG is one between three. One after four and three less three. If you take one then add another, you've found the man, one of the greatest brothers! Find the FOG and ask if he has the treasure.
One between three (1 2 3) = 2
One after four (1 2 3 4 5) = 5
Three less three (3 - 3) = 0
Take one then add another (1 + 1) = 2
Answer to riddle = 2502
I don't remember where it was I got this number, but it was from somewhere on CP....
I never solved the problem this way.................... :whistling: I looked at it from a completely different perspective as advised in Kingantz final clue:
I PM'd the top 50 members I thought were FOGs................and found our very own SamClemmons!

So you blanket PM'ed a bunch of people hoping one was the right person?
Cheeeeeeaaaaaatttterrrrrrrr. :sign:
I was only kidding . But "outside the box" thinking, in my eyes, is defined as finding a unique solution by unconventional methods, not Brute Forcing and praying .

Well the numbers were not adding up (for obvious reasons) so I resorted to "brute force".............cheating? I liken it to being very thorough. Kidding or not I still found the treasure! And what is really great is I had the opportunity to interact with some great BOTLs! How can you beat that!
Much appreciated, Greg...it was a fun Hunt! I wasn't even close to following the logic in that last clue, though...so short of Putz's "Brute force" I was destined to be a runner up. :blush:And we have our Treasure Hunt winners!!

It looks mighty nice.
But (all in fun here) just to provide some comparison.
