I am also curious! :) I just clicked the Shhh mini badge thingy, but nothing happened there. I am also now looking at Surprise Me with suspicion. I am gonna get it by the end of this week. I will just keep on exploring till then! :) Reply #1. Sep 19 23, 7:32 PM |

Depending on Prestige Level, it says you should get 1 or 2 per day. It doesn't give any detail on where to look, what to do or what we get. Very interesting! Reply #2. Sep 19 23, 7:36 PM |

There was one earlier today. I just happened to see it. Played and got regular points for playing. (No prestige points, however.) Will have to see if they are all the same or a variety of puzzles. Reply #5. Sep 19 23, 8:09 PM |

Keep an eye out for the area around where is says "Mystery Link". That's where I found my first (and only) one. I don't know if that's the permanent place for them, though. They pop up once in a while, then disappear after a certain amount of time. Reply #6. Sep 19 23, 8:09 PM |

p.s. it actually says "Mystery Boxes", not Mystery Link. Sorry I goofed there. Reply #7. Sep 19 23, 8:11 PM |

Where does it say "Mystery Link"? Is that on the Home Page? Reply #8. Sep 19 23, 8:13 PM |

Yes, Gumby. Top of front page and it's a link that says "Mystery Boxes". Reply #9. Sep 19 23, 8:16 PM |

So at 850 prestige (Rank 11d), there's one hour -- presumably randomized -- during which this will appear. 4000 more prestige later (Rank 19a), it will appear during two hour-long periods. It sounds kind of like the retired "Just A Minute" mini, during which the InstaQuiz would appear for exactly one minute at a randomly chosen time each day ... but the challenge page told you which minute it would be for that day. So is the new thing just kind of a "hope you happen to be on FT at just the right time"? Or is there any sort of way you would know when you were within your Mystery Box hour? Usually, when something changes, you don't know of it unless you reload or navigate to another page. Reply #10. Sep 19 23, 8:18 PM |

I'm not seeing anything on my HomePage with "Mystery Boxes" or "Mystery Link". I'm making an appointment with my optometrist, as I must be going blind. Reply #11. Sep 19 23, 8:23 PM |

"Mystery Boxes" is a link, and it is pretty small type. Mine is in the middle of the upper section of the Home Page, a couple of lines under the large heading of: Explore the Realms of Knowledge Reply #14. Sep 19 23, 8:32 PM |

Not there Verbonica :-( Reply #15. Sep 19 23, 8:34 PM |

The link only appears during the time it is active. There is no trace of it the rest of the time. When you activate the link you get results for others who have played the linked game. Since it is new and I have only seen it once, it is possible that the link will appear at different places on the site. It is supposed to be a mystery. Reply #16. Sep 19 23, 8:36 PM |

Thanks Verbonica. My Link is not there either. Perhaps it is in a different place for each Player. Reply #17. Sep 19 23, 8:37 PM |

"The link only appears during the time it is active. There is no trace of it the rest of the time." Ah, that would explain it. Reply #18. Sep 19 23, 8:40 PM |

My link was on the left hand side of the banner under my user name. It may depend on the device you are using, though. Reply #19. Sep 19 23, 8:41 PM |

Thanks maninmidohio and all other contributors. It is starting to make sense. I've got my eye on those spots now, and will wait it out. Reply #20. Sep 19 23, 8:44 PM |
