Outside the post office fans gathered in wait for @omgmei’s arrival. It became something of a mini convention with food from the House of Pies and pizza. There were surprise appearances from Jason Ritter who received gifts from fans and Ariel Hirsch!
Even more, writer Jeffery Rowe came and gave out some early copies of Curse of the Time Pirates’ Treasure! as prizes for an impromptu quiz game. And Scott Jones with the McGucket puppet (seen in previous Comic Con panels and the end credits of “Sock Opera”) and the Bill Cipher puppet (also seen at Comic Cons in the past.)
Even past clue finders @ramblewheels and @achillesheelys showed up!
Eventually, taking pity the post office allowed the hunters loitering outside into their lobby to take refuge from the heat. Haha. Jason and Ariel even joined in something of a live reading of Time Pirates’ as they waited.
Inside was a bag with jigsaw puzzle pieces, a note from Bill, an envelope, and… a Bed, Bath, & Beyond catalogue? Inside the envelope was a stack of Stan bucks, and behind each one written in invisible ink were the words ‘FILBRICK.’ (Ford’s middle name who in turn, was named after his and Stan’s father.)
Because me and @choc-chip-pancakeshave been screaming all day about the hunt, we both co-wrote this lmao:
