[b][green] DISABLING CACHE [/b][/green]

Greetings,

This one is not quite ready for review. Since there are are issues that still need to be resolved, I am going to temporarily disable your listing for the moment to remove it from the active review queue and to allow you more time to work on it. Go back and read all the notes or look at the posts on the cache page to find the issues that need to be worked on. Once you have things worked out you can enable it on the edit page and I will be happy to continue the review.

This in no way keeps you from placing this cache but [b]you will have to address the mentioned issues then pop this one back to us.

Again, after things are fixed check the box next to: Yes, this listing is active. Reviewers will only see the listing in the queue when it is checked.[/b]

This will give you approximately 30 days to respond and get things in order. If we do not hear from you after that time the cache will be archived to clear the queue so that the spot is available to someone else.

[B][Green]Most problems can be solved with good communication so reply back to the reviewer and we will do everything possible within the guidelines to get your cache published. It is best to give me as much information as possible instead of saying nothing at all. This will speed up the process and we can get your cache published. [/green][/b]

Thanks for your understanding,

Glenn

Geocache Description:

This is a

multileg
cache with questions that must be answered correctly to get to the final. I would suggest some armchair work before going after this one. The terrain is slightly hilly and mostly on grass.

WP1>

The first waypoint will take you to a parking lot near the elevated Metrolink station in Maplewood. Rubeus Hagrid is a character from the Harry Potter series. He is the first magical representative Harry encounters as a teenager. When Harry was an infant and his parents were murdered by Lord Voldermort, Hagrid was charged with delivering the baby Harry to his relatives. Hagrid did so on a flying vehicle. This vehicle is a m_______cl_. Find the correct letters to fill in these blanks. Now count the syllables and use them to figure the WP2 coordinates.

S=number of syllables

The WP2 Coordinates are: N 38 36.ABC W 090 19.DEF

A = S+5, B = S+1, C = S, D = S(2), E = S-2, F = S

WP2>

Hagrid loves creatures and has pets of all sorts. Many are often mentioned and some even play key roles in the story. At this waypoint it will become clear which pet is the right pet. This pet's name is ____. Take the last letter of this pets name and find its placement numerically in the alphabet and call that number L. (For example A would be 1, B would be 2 and Z would be 26)

The coordinates for the final are: N 38 36.TUV W 090 19.XYZ

T = L+2, U = L-2, V = T, X = L+1, Y = L-6, Z = L-(U-1)

FINAL

There is a larger medicine bottle wrapped up in black tape here that Hagrid would easily find because he is half human half something. Please note where exactly the container is so that you can place it here once finished.

THERE IS AN UN-ACTIVATED TB FOR THE FTF TO MAKE THEIR OWN IF THEY SO CHOOSE!
