Everyone,
 
    Recently I was asked by a friend of mine to take over his jobs at developing and hosting a netgame named "Treasure Hunt". I'm sure many of you saw the "Treasure Hunt" marathon, but here is a quick review of the rules:
 
 
==== Game Rules ====
    We start with a pool of contestants. In this case, every contestant is given a number in the order they e-mailed me. Randomly two numbers are picked of the contestants that sign up and they come on down. Given to both is a "box" one of these box has a surprise, the other has nothing. The person who finds the box with the surprise (a random "heads and tails" website will be used) goes on to the next round.  
 
    There are 50 boxes, contained in one of the boxes is a money amount. This money amount starts at $50,000. For every CONTESTANT that doesn't win the money $5,000 is added. Also in the boxes are trips, cruises, cars, minks and then klunks. Klunks can range from a book to a hot plate. Of course, I couldn't take out the "skits", I would do things in a stupid way and then reveal the prize.
==== Game Rules ====
 
    I do need contestants though so please fill out the following form and we'de LOVE to have you:
