Today FM - You do the maps *Mod request post #667*

Claude Burgundy

With Today FM giving away 200k over the next 20 days perhaps those trying to win should help each other here.

Full details on the comp are here http://www.todayfm.com/reader/421.441/17798/0/

Clues are only givin out once on five shows during the day so might be able to post the clues here to help one another out..........

Its just an idea and good luck to everyone playing !

Moderator: We have a request that people use spoiler tags if they're revealing more than just the clues and I can see the sense in it.

Many people will want to figure out the numbers from the clues but might just have missed the clue on the radio.

Can I ask people to now spoiler their answers? I'll see if this warning is heeded so that hopefully there won't be a need for a 24-hour ban for spoiling.

Clues only or answers too?

5 clues per day - Ian Dempsey, Anton Savage, Dermot & Dave, Louise Duffy, Matt Cooper - each clue leads to a number that you find using google maps and street view.
Once Matt Coopers clue is given, you take the 5 answers, add them and text your answer and name to today FM to win €10,000 - they're doing it for 20 days in June

Would be good to have the clues too. It is good fun looking for the numbers. The Arts centre wasn't exactly where Google maps said it was!

Good luck people!

"Remember, you have to add up all 5 numbers from that day and text the word MAPS followed by your 4-digit answer and your name and location to 53102."

I really dislike the location bit of the text entry. It's like they are trying to spread the winners around the country.

Hey whatever people want !

sebcity

D&D's clue = Wexford town, a level crossing on commercial quay. There is a white sign saying XT___E, three numbers missing....find them!
I can't!

All I see is XR 161

agore21

Same as! I see a sign at a level crossing that reads XR161 but no XT???E.

TreacyOne

I am having a similar issue but I can find XC161E and I was sure they said XT?!

Synode

D&D just confirmed it's XR not XT

TreacyOne

I am having a similar issue but I can find XR161E and I was sure they said XT?!

sebcity

Haha they corrected themselves there!

hufpc8w3adnk65

It's the 3 digits after xr

Dammer

Same here...

All I see is a sign XR161E

Wonder if Dermot messed up...

Actually its on the radio now, and they are correcting the "error" by higher ups!

So their number is 161

prodsc

Been corrected to XR ___E

Have seen XR161C

agore21

Langers! XR not XT. Still don't see the letter E but the number must be 161...

Dammer

Anyone else see a pattern?

16 in all the clues so far...

lambayire

Keep driving around the crescent shape corner. It's down there!

prodsc

The crossing in front of Tourist office just in Commercial Quay. The sign is in front of the toilet!

Cheers! It was driving me mad looking for it there. If anyone is annoyed about not seeing the E on the sign, here's the Google Maps link.

So what are today's numbers lads?

Synode

16
1641
161

Anyone know what time Cooper will be doing them? It will be the hardest for me to get

Doubt the times will be predictable otherwise people will set timers and listen to some other station, it'll be at a random time. Just come back here later

Vojera

That's what I'm going to do. I'm usually in the car when The Last Word is on so no way to look up the map even if I do hear the clue.
