FIshJUsh Finale

This was to be FIshJUsh's final hunt for a while. And it ended with a bang with our hunt last weekend with the KLBar LexisNexis Hunt from KL to Genting.
Whilst the hunt was opened to public, it was divided into two category of hunters. We were in the closed category (for KLBar members and LexisNexis employees only) ... which leaves us separated from the professional "100-hunts-&-counting" treasure hunters, leaving us a better chance to get a good position.
Hunting for a third time now, we are really great at working together as a team. Even before the hunt, we've started to prep ourselves by reviewing pass year questions, compiling possible question types, listing anagram indicators and also preparing tables of lists and sorts ... *sounds kiasu? nolar...*
The hunt was a fantastic experience. We worked really well together and generated a car full of excitement. We shared times of delight when breaking the clues, relief when collecting a treasure, disappointment when failing to find the answer, frustration at the wrong tulips and raging frustration when the traffic lights just don't turn green and there was only 5 minutes till points elimination time!
In the end, FIshJUsh did do well! We got all the treasures, we got 5 out of 30 questions wrong and we slipped up one road safety question. We secured 4th place in the closed category and got ourselves a microwave each. I am real happy now about the 4th placing but when FIshJUsh was called and sh went to collect the prize, i was disappointed as we had just missed the top 3 placing which would have us win cash!
It was good to be hunting and great to have hunted with such a fantastic bunch of friends.
My previous hunts are here and here.
