TRAVEL BUG HOSTEL - FOR TRAVEL BUGS WHO CAN'T AFFORD TO GO TO A REAL HOTEL
To solve the puzzle these steps must be done IN ORDER
and double checked before signing DNF or asking for a hint.
Okay, everybody ready? We've tried this on seventeen people and 8 beta cachers. It has worked for each and every one!
Step 1: Get a pencil and paper or a calculator. If using a calculator, please use one that has a print out. You may need to go back and check some numbers.
Step 2: Advanced warning. Some may want to do this step in private. Okay, here we go. Take you age and multiply it by 173. Your answer will be either an even or an odd number.
Step 3: Take the answer from above and divide it by the sum of the last two digits in the year you were born.
Step 4: This is where it starts getting a little hard. You may have to search google for this one or you may just have the item handy and can get the measurement. Find an average saucer, you know, the kind you use for a tea cup. Find the diameter and then determine the circumference. Once you have the circumference of the saucer, multiply that times the number of vehicles you have owned between the years 1968 and 2002.
I know... At this point you're asking yourself "how can possibly work"? Really, if you follow all the steps I promise you that you can find the cache and claim the smiley!
Step 5: Now to combine some numbers.... Take the answer from step 3 and the answer from step 4. Add them together and then find the cubed root. I'll wait.......... I know not everyone had done cubed roots in a long time.
Step 6: You know, step six reminds me of a story. Well it's not really a story but more of a way to mess with the pizza guy. Here, take a look.
1. While you are you are making an order, randomly start pressing the numbers on the phone and tell the guy to stop doing it.
2. Make up a credit card name and ask if they accept it.
3. Ask for a Big Mac, French fries and a Large Coke.
4. Finish the order with: “Remember, this conversation never happened”.
5. Tell him you've got another pizza delivery on the other line and you're buying from the one who offers the lowest price.
6. Just give him your address and say “Surprise me”. Then hang up.
7. Answer his questions with other questions.
8. Spell the ingredients.
9. Stutter every time you say something with the letter “P”
10. Ask him if they have pizza.
11. Say “Hello” and act as if he called you.
12. Make your order being very decided and secure, then when he asks you if you would like a drink with the pizza, act as if you were confused.
13. Change your accent every 5 seconds.
14. Ask for 56 pepperoni slices followed by an equation.
15. If he repeats the order to make sure, say “Ok, its $17.90, please proceed to the next window to pick up your order”.
16. Explain him that you want to rent a Pizza.
17. Ask if you can keep the box. When he answers yes, make a huge sigh of relief.
18. Tell him to make sure that your pizza is dead.
19. Imitate the voice of the guy taking the order.
20. Eliminate the verbs of everything you say.
22. Tell him that there's a surprise party at yours and that you would appreciate if the delivery boy could hide behind the couch until the celebrated one comes in to surprise him/her.
23. Ask if you could see the menu.
24. Warn them that they have no idea of what they are dealing with by supplying this order.
25. Ask him which ingredient is better for a meal with a specific type of wine.
26. Burp and then tell your dog that he should be ashamed.
27. Ask only for one slice.
28. Psychoanalyze the guy taking the order.
29. Complain about the service. Call again two hours later saying that you were drunk and that you are sorry about what you said.
30. Tell the guy taking the order to tell the one in charge to tell the supervisor that Hess fired.
31. Randomly start swearing to someone who is apparently next to you.
32. Stop speaking every 10 seconds and start playing an instrument.
33. Tell a secret code to the guy taking the order and tell him to memorize it for orders you'll make in the future.
34. Ask for mushrooms as the first ingredient, then before you hang up, say “no mushrooms please”. Then hang up before he can say anything.
35. when he repeats the order, correct him changing an ingredient, then correct him again, and again. The third time ask him if its his first day working there.
36. Breath loudly.
37. Ask him how many whales/dolphins had to die to make that pizza.
38. Avoid using the word “PIZZA” by any means. If the guy taking the order says it, hang up saying “Please, donut use that word”.
39. Make the order during a car chase on TV. When there are gunshots, yell “Aaarghhh”
40. If the guy taking the order doesn't take any of the previous jokes, ask him if there's any other who would take them.
Step 7: Did you notice anything missing from the list above? I hope so. Take that number and multiply it by the number of times you have eaten ground beef in the last three weeks.
Step 8: Take the number from step 3 and put it in the third place in the longitude section.
9: Take the number from step 7 times step 4 divided by step 3 x 5. Put that number in the latitude section.
And now the final step.....
Step 10: Forget about everything you've done above and subtract .380 from north and add .578 to west. Go to your new coordinates. Spin around three times counter clockwise and then look down. You should see an ammo can chained to our porch. Open the ammo can, sign the log and trade tradeables if that's what you want to do. Don't forget... Have fun out there!
