Ask your question in the hunt thread. Someone will help you.

I am not seeing the banner on my home computer, but I am using the new site. Any suggestions? Thanks, k4k
ETA: well, I think it's OK. At least the banner for getting a card is popping up.

I don't think there is a banner.
If you go to the hunt thread referenced in >2 gilroy:, you'll see that several other people mention not seeing it. And I don't, either.

I saw the banner on my work computer. Just not at home.
Now search doesn't seem to be working for me. I know the book and the author for one of the clues but search turns up nothing. I even searched Mark Twain and came up with nothing. I think I will go to sleep and try again tomorrow.

Same here >5 krazy4katz: "site search very slow and then finds nothing".

yeah, it would seem search has gone kaput. I'm getting no results for everything I search on, INCLUDING the couple things I did a search on for the couple clues I knew the answers to right away.

>6 guido47: Well, at least I know it isn't the climate, since we are on different continents.

I don't see the general announcement banner. I'm also struggling with the answer pages. The two correct pages I've found were my wild guesses, not the answers I was confident I knew.
I'll continue digging through the hints. So far, it's hard to tell if the problem is my search or the code.

>10 aspirit: The banner isn't appearing for a lot of people, so that's not you. On the other hand, I do think the clues and answers are working, so that's probably just down to you not finding the right pages yet. There are plenty of hints in the main thread: https://www.librarything.com/topic/305699

As mentioned in >11 r.orrison:, we'd like to keep treasure hunt discussion over in the official thread for it. https://www.librarything.com/topic/305699
Site search had some trouble yesterday evening, but is working smoothly again. We nixed the general announcement banner, so it's not just you. But you should still be seeing banners indicating you've found a card when you visit a page that corresponds to a clue.

>12 lorannen: Actually, I'd really appreciate if there were separate threads for help with clues and questions/problems about the hunt itself. This is because I don't want to bother with the hint thread until I've had a chance to look at all the clues myself, but if there are problems, I'd like to see those right away.
