Buried Treasure "treasure" location

Tue Jun 05, 2007 1:55 am

Not sure if this counts as a game or help, but I just won 20,000 NP in Buried Treasure. According to avatar guides, the "treasure" is in about the same location for everyone at the same time, so I thought I'd post the coordinates here so someone might win the jackpot or avvie: 247,196
If you click near there, you just might win something big. Let me know if it works.

Good luck!

Didn't work for me, unfortunately.

Just tried your exact coords and got 2000np! Thank you! :)

I got nothing. I'm assuming this is just another "at 10 seconds past the hour, you get a level from Coltzan!!!!" rumor. I would bet money that TNT's coding for the game has the winning coordinate for each person generated randomly. When these rumors spread, more people try them, resulting in more wins, therefor strengthening the rumor as it goes, when the probability never changed. @.@

The site from which I got the information is avatar.starried.net, which I trust nearly as much as PPT for accurate Neopets info. A petpage guide can be found here (referenced by avatar.starried):

It's not a guarantee, but going near the "treasure" spot does seem to increase the chances of getting NP.

I tried it, but no dice. It was a real pain in the slats to hover my mouse oh-so-gently until I got the perfect coordinates.

Anyway, congrats on your win!

No doubt the treasure has moved on since the original post. The treasure moves quite frequently each day, and as a result, the "treasure location" is only good for a short period after it is found

Might help, might hinder, might not make any difference but I clicked NW of that location and got 500NPs.

I can't do it since in my IE the address bar at the bottom doesn't show up at all. :(

Thanks a lot for the heads up. I just tried it and it definitely worked for me- I won 1000 NP :o

There seems to be a lot of confusion about this, due to the nature of the game. The "treasure" location changes very often, usually within the hour. As a result, the original post's locations don't show the treasure's location currently. This leads to confusion when people don't read the whole thread before going to the Buried Treasure game.

Although we have alert threads for things like Tarla's Warehouse and The Turmaculus, this would be a thread of many postings of "I think the treasure is here" "No, its not anymore, its here" - which turns it into nothing more than a gloat/cry thread specifically for the Buried Treasure game.

I'm going to lock this for now. If anybody has a better system than just posting the new location, feel free to PM me. For now though, the system would just be impracticaly, spammy and constantly out of date
