Good luck.

you were born with that too? hehehe

you’re supposed to out-run the cops when they come after you! then hide from them.

Is there a prize for each “leg” of the hunt, or only at the end?

I have to say, I’ve been pulled over quite a few times and have always managed to get away with a warning, this rookie frig just wasn’t havin’ it.

I think the cops in CT are afraid to give thebigshow a ticket. Combine the bald head, the height and the fact that he’s built like a brick s**thouse , throw in the lead foot and he’s free as a bird. lol

Yeah, most of them here are a$$holes. I was actually in SC when I hide from a trooper for like 45 minutes before he caught up to me. Then he gave me a $90 ticket and threatened another $18, I wanted to laugh in his face, it would have been $350 plus here and a court appearance!…….

Thanks for asking but no luck tonight. First they had us all stand outside in the blazing sun for 20 minutes like we’re freakin’ degenerate criminals, then they sent half of us home saying we had to reschudule our court date. Then my power went out twice and my house is like an inferno. Now Nick is trying to give me some type of brain anuerism! lol

I think I know what I am looking for, just not which site it’s on…. Anthony said I would know….uh I think he fibbed a little. Just kidding anthony, I think it’s very obvious but we are making it hard, isn’t that right Jim?

That’s how I feel about it also. I don’t think the answer will be a bit suprising. I’m looking for a needle in a haystack when I probably should be looking out for the tractor!

Yeah, the sad thing is I have tried the most obvious places, then moved on to not to far a stretch to not even freakin close, this sucks, I bet one of us wakes up at 3 am going oh duh!! and someone will have beaten us to it

I know its off topic but DK, have you ever done stand up? Damn your funny.

Ok, now back to the brain pain.

Ok I am back in the game now….come on lucky clue help me out…………

will the clue be on the home page or do we have to search the whole entire site… some of the sites I have been to are freakin huge

Because capsaicins are not water-soluble, drinking milk (with milk fat and proteins) rather than water is a more effective way to quench the fire caused by hot peppers.

That is the route I was taking

ok Daniel we all know that, BUT did you find the site?

Ice cream, milk, pepto bismol……. who has a site with milk on it?

don’t forget yogurt, Dannon had nothing

beer? what about beer?

Come on people what tames the zest the best ??? Sugar am I right just don’t know where to start looking….just a guess from me

How about whipped cream?

Cheese, any dairy product…. of course you all know that

remember though it’s on a website that someone has given Nick access to or put the clue up themselves for him, so unless he knows someone at C&H or Hersheys or Dannon, it’s not there

Nope, always was told my humor WAS brain pain! I’m way too shy, never could stand large crowds. You saw how funny I was at The Alley, i tend to clam up around large groups of people. Actually, I wouldn’t call it shy, that car salesman this past weekend wouldn’t either (long story, should have kept my big mouth shut! ). More like just being way too nervous with a lot of people around. I do like to make people smile, no matter how big of a fool I seem though!

Man, just hit another dead end, and probably close too! Gonna go take my eyes out now (that’s redneck for removing contacts, hope I didn’t freak anyone out! ), it’s gonna be a long night!

Absolutely right, I agree. However, I do not under-estimate Nick’s ability to get in good with the big name manufacturers.

Yeah I”m actually almost convinced you sent someone else to Defcon Day! lol You’re the best, don’t worry, I think you make more people smile than you realize.

I’m thinking about posting random words and phrases in hopes that I’ll accidentally win! Just kidding of course.

Nick is laughing his a$$ off at us, and if he isn’t he should be, I know I would be.

I know that I am laughing my a** off, I am sure that when someone figures it out I will be like duh……Oh well I am having fun……..

I have successfully eliminated every website I could find on the blog I know i had to have missed one somewhere, but then again Nick knows a lot of people so maybe I didn’t.

BOOGER!!!!!!!! you are so right it is a bit poetic! this is his doing I say we lynch him or something until he gives up the site

So we are a little confused. Are we looking for a marker? Something that says “The Clue”? Or are we looking for the “?” ?

Well good luck all and good night, I am hitting the hay. If I do think of it while I am sleeping the laptop is bed side and the blog is always up so I may jump back in the hunt at 4am in the morning you never know……….

I guess I have a slight advantage, I am in Mountain time, it is 8:33 local right now.

I am going to pound my head on the wall for a little whileI know I have the answer somewhere maybe I can shake it loose

Of course that was not my contest answer, but a question to you’re comment!!

Do we get only one guess each?

Ya know I left for awhile hoping SOMEONE, ANYONE would have figured this out. I guess I’ll see you all in the middle of the night sometime.

We here at DEFCON Sauces are proud to announce our 1st Place Award in the 2006 Scovie Awards for out famous Defense Condition #2 sauce. It took the title for Best Wing Sauce in the Nation!!

I suck at this stuff but that is my guess as to what it refers to.

or something like that
I read the stuff up top just now and it says it would CLEARLY identify itself LOL
Okie so i told you i suck at this stuff

I think we need another hint!!!!

you mean like here pmac?

SNS Link

Found it!

Winning Link

Google is your my friend. Was up several hours last night, searching the HSB for milk, casein. This morning thought “maybe it’s yogurt”. First link has the marker.

Nick Lindauer on 8/2/2006 at 6:34 am said:

Congrats Allen - What in the world did you Google?

Send me an email with your shipping information and we’ll get your prize right out.

Everyone: The next clue will appear sometime by next Tuesday again.

Thanks Nick

I’ve sent my shipping info via the contact page

Using google you can use site: to search a site, so I searched “site:hotsauceblog.com yogurt”. Other queries I tried were “site:hotsauceblog.com milk” “site:hotsauceblog.com caesin”, even “site:hotsauceblog.com zest tongue fire”.

Way to go Allen! Congrats!
Same direction I went with it also. Never even thought of yogurt. I even used the HSB searh function. Did searches for taste tests, winner, all kinds of stuff. Just couldn’t see the forest for the trees I guess.

Nick, thanks for another great contest, I can’t wait to see the next clue! maybe my brain will have quit hurting by then. Leroy, you can turn that radio back on now!

Good morning everyone!

Good morning everyone! Congratulations Allan!

Last night the link to that review came up when whipped cream was typed in the search bar and I never clicked on it. That was at about 9 last night!! So close, I’m sure lots of us were. Congrats again Allan!

Morning all, hope everyone slept well……….Congrats Allan !!!!!!!!!!

Hmmm, curious. We use nothing but plain white table sugar to kill the heat, works within 5-10 seconds every single time. All that milk stuff, blech, nasty smelling cow excrement.

Thanks all

Question. Did anyone else think it had something to do with Tim Seaver? I spent a good half hour trolling, figuring I was onto something, since the guy has virtually 0 internet presense. Only stopped once I came across some rather unscrupulous individual who used Tios’ Mexican Cafe as a draw to a rather seedy website.

Congrats Allan, boy I was way off but had myself convinced I was onto it without a doubt. What a dumba$$! Nick this is a lot of fun, great idea and now that we have seen it through one time I think it will ease some of the franticness about what it is we are truelly looking for. Bring on Clue 2!

dude, we had it last night, but weren’t looking in the right spot that is frustrating!!!

Allan good job!!

Nick we don’t want to wait for a whole week before the next clue.

Hey- Mrs. Ryan, I saw you were onto that track and blew it off- I was so into what I thought I was onto and convinced I had it wrapped up, yeah I wasn’t even friggen close, lol

Congrats Allan! How long did it take you to find the answer?

we were sure it was some kind of dairy product, and Scott even said yogurt and checked the dannon site LOL he was sooooo close he is gonna bang his head when he sees the dannon yogurt thingy where the clue is. I checked every web link on this site I didn’t think Nick would put the clue on the blog, I am not putting anything past him GAME ON!!

I was so close also. I was thinking it was on the blog, but was thinking I would have to find a clue elsewhere first. I searched the HSB for everything except yogurt. I saw the reference last night to Dannon, but never even thought to search for it. Dang Leroy and his music playing in the background! He loves his Bobby McFerrin.

ROFL DK!! I am glad someone figured it out but like i said GAME ON!! I am just waiting for the next clue. waiting a week is torture.

I’ll tell ya the truth, I thought it has something to do with “The Smoking Tongue”, as Nick stated “Once upon a time there was one tongue that bore the chore of tasting hot sauces galore.”, and The Smoking Tongue hasn’t had an update in many months. Oh well…

That’s exactly what I thought…… Fit the clue perfectly. BUt, as you said, the site hasn’t been updated since last novemeber.

Please don’t say that we are starting to think a like Creator!

I knew exactly the page Allan found cause it was the first thing I thought of when I read the clue but I couldn’t find it! I remember reading it a while back just messing around. Allan’s skills>my skills

Congrats Allan! How long did it take you to find the answer?

When the clue came out at 5 yesterday I was on a conference call. I looked a the clue and figured someone would have found it quickly.

When I got home after work, surprised no one had found it, spent a couple hours surfing, gave up.

Checking my email this morning, thought I’d check and saw no one had hit it yet. Found it about 2 minutes later.

Google is your my friend. Was up several hours last night, searching the HSB for milk, casein. This morning thought “maybe it’s yogurt”. First link has the marker.

I was digging through the HSB archives also My problem was looking for ice cream I thought I knew. Didn’t help that I was doing it from the firehosue & we got hammered yesteday

I told Nick I was going to sit this one out. Not so sure now I think I’ve got it figured out- will know shortly.

No good luck needed I’ll keep my promise. It’s more fun watching this way

I thought you had it figured out Jim! Now I don’t feel so bad!

Allan on 8/2/2006 at 7:54 am said:

Thanks all

Question. Did anyone else think it had something to do with Tim Seaver? I spent a good half hour trolling, figuring I was onto something, since the guy has virtually 0 internet presense. Only stopped once I came across some rather unscrupulous individual who used Tios’ Mexican Cafe as a draw to a rather seedy website.

You know, I didn’t think Tim Seaver specifically, but ended up on that page while searching. I am very glad to know that at least I was on the same path as others here. Of course that’s a double edged sword, gotta find an advantage by the time the next clue comes out. I don’t think the comedy routine helped me any last night!

ou know its funny, i was looking at Nicks favorite sauces for the game, and I thought for sure it was somewhere on the blairs after death page. I was so close, yet so far.

we were sure it was some kind of dairy product, and Scott even said yogurt and checked the dannon site LOL he was sooooo close he is gonna bang his head when he sees the dannon yogurt thingy where the clue is. I checked every web link on this site I didn’t think Nick would put the clue on the blog, I am not putting anything past him GAME ON!!

You can thank The Huvason for that little present, I have a feeling he’ll be stocking up with cases of it at the Brooklyn Defcon Day next Saturday, and again in Hillsborough on 9/9. Let me know what you think of it after you try it, maybe you can stock it after we go into full production.

No problem. You’re worth the 5 bucks (or was it 10… hmmm not sure if you are worth 10 )

DEFINITELY put it in the fridge!

Way to go Allen! Congrats!
Same direction I went with it also. Never even thought of yogurt. I even used the HSB searh function. Did searches for taste tests, winner, all kinds of stuff. Just couldn’t see the forest for the trees I guess.

Nick, thanks for another great contest, I can’t wait to see the next clue! maybe my brain will have quit hurting by then. Leroy, you can turn that radio back on now!

That’s not funny you know Leroy lost a finger and can’t turn the radio off. LEROY USE YOUR OTHER HAND DUH.
