Droid X Scavenger Hunt Thread

**ceriem** · 06-30-2010, 07:39 AM

There's been a couple of threads about the Droid X twitter thing going on. I wanted to make a thread with an offical list of where every Droid has been hinted at being. I will update as frequently as I can (probably as soon as they release a new clue on twitter).

So the location of each Droid X as of right now:
1: Vegas or some casino in the area.
2: So. Cal. Maybe near Hollywood
3: Lombard Street. San Fran? Not really sure which city, but it's getting close.
4: New York City (capital of the world?)
5: South of Nebraska --->Texas-->near a grassy knoll
6: Southernmost part of US (no Hawaii though?)
7: Pacific Northwest, most likely at an airport
8: Either New Orleans or Huntsville, Alabama.
9:Somewhere very humid--> Tennessee (Volunteer State)
10: Houston. Most likely near Johnson Space Center.
11: Near Cowboy Hall of Fame
12: Possibly rockin in the Cleveland Rock and Roll Hall of Fame?
13: Buffalo -- 5 days
14: Chicago area
15: High altitude, Rocky Mountain area.
16: St. Louis
17: Metro Area--> can take anything you throw at it?--> largest cement plant
18: Mall of America... go!
19: Philly
20: Boston -- 2 days
21: East Coast

If anything is wrong, please feel free to correct me. Happy hunting!

NOTE: Further use of this post will be to post the GPS coordinates of each unit as it's released. It will be updated ASAP after each GPS tweet. (Unless it's in the NY/Long Island area, becase then I'm going for that thing solo :P )

"Droid X designate #12 rocks. With its 1Ghz processing power, it has no choice. "
#12 is probably at the rock and roll hall of fame in cleveland
Too bad its about a 2 hour drive from columbus

At first I was following the twitter hunting posts really closely. Then I remembered that its rather unlikely that they'll be hiding any in Iowa. Considering the fact that Des Moines is 6 years behind the rest of the world we'd be more apt to find hidden razers

**vexhold** · 06-30-2010, 09:32 AM

Is there a reason they are only posting clues for half of the Droids. Did someone find the other ones before it started?

I think they're being intentionally vague so that they won't have any decent locations hinted at until closer to launch. That, or they're trying to stagger when people find them so it's not all at once.

I want to go look...im in Akron...bout 45 mins away...but then i rememberd that song "Cleveland Rocks! Cleveland Rocks!" so......idk.

**Beasley10** · 06-30-2010, 11:44 AM

But i tell ya what....as soon as they get more into detail about #12 i will be there...id drive 45 mins to save $200

**Helicrewchief** · 06-30-2010, 12:04 PM

1st post on this site. I like scavenger hunts so I want to get in on this. Droid X #5 is in a warmer climate, Way south of Nebraska. Start your engines. Way south of Nebraska is Texas which is warm. In Fort Worth, Texas is Texas motor speedway. So maybe in that area?

Also Driod X #4 is on the East coast. The east coast is huge with lots of big cities not just New York. Boston, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and DC to name a few.

**slinky317** · 06-30-2010, 12:10 PM

Yes, but it says that Droid 4 is in a "HDMI state of mind" - a direct reference to being in a "New York state of mind".

**Helicrewchief** · 06-30-2010, 12:21 PM

Oh ok....Just learn something! Didn't catch that.

**brandegy** · 06-30-2010, 01:00 PM

has anyone checked out the cleveland region for the droid x. More specific the rock hall?

Yes im following a guy on twitter who has....and hasnt found anything....im debating on heading up myself...but im still thinking they arent in place just yet.

**Stang68** · 06-30-2010, 01:54 PM

Yeah, I'm really curious as to how this will work. Will the X's just be sitting there? Will they be IN an actual Verizon store near the hinted location? There really isn't anything for us to go on.

**TYagoto** · 06-30-2010, 03:30 PM

**smoke_show** · 06-30-2010, 05:05 PM

Droid X designate #7 has been spotted in the Pacific Northwest. Northeasters: buy your plane tickets

**rooktdphi** · 06-30-2010, 05:07 PM

**schizrade** · 06-30-2010, 05:31 PM

**spun2u** · 06-30-2010, 08:33 PM

Yea, they are being way to general right now. Fun to get the tweets.

**zippox180#AC** · 06-30-2010, 11:47 PM

Droid #4 says its in a hdmi state of mind. A reference to a new York state of mind which was written by billy Joel. It was recorded in hempstead NY at ultra sonic studios which I believe does not exist anymore but I wonder if hempstead NY is the location. Or quite possibly Madison square garden because it is quite often played at NY nicks and ranger games.

If you're gonna go that route it could be anywhere on Long Island. In his hometown of Hicksville, or the Hamptons where he lives now. Hempstead or Hicksville would be awesome because they're both right near where I live, but who knows at this point lol

**rooktdphi** · 07-01-2010, 06:53 AM

Or it could be Jay-Z Empire State of Mind

**zippox180#AC** · 07-01-2010, 08:39 AM

I'm just not sure if it has to do with Billy Joel or if I totally over analyzed it lol but I have a feeling Madison square garden might be it I think it has to do with the song and not Billy Joel directly who knows
