This cache has been archived.

pjm237: Archiving due to utility work at GZ that has removed all the underbrush and many of the smaller trees. Including the one that was used by the cache.
I have an idea for an improved (harder) version stay tuned.

Geocache Description:


This cache is part of a Board Game Themed Series of caches in the Lexington Area. Cache it not at the listed Cords.

Game overview from BoardGameGeek:
There are 104 cards numbered from 1 to 104. Every card has at least 1 small flag on it, which will score against you. The deck is shuffled and players are dealt 10 cards each. 4 more are dealt up on the table to form the start of 4 rows.
When each player has chosen a card from their hand, these are revealed and put on the ends of the rows according to simple rules.

As the rows get longer, a row with 5 cards in it is full. If your card is to be the 6th, you pick up the 5 cards in the row, and your 6th card goes to the front to restart the row. The cards you pick up do not go into your hand, but sit in front of you to score against you at the end of the round. Play rounds until someone hits 74 (the minimum speed of a hurricane) and the lowest score wins.

The game plays from 2 to 10 players and the dynamics change the more you have. Whilst luck of the draw has effect, there are some tactics you can apply and timing your choice makes a difference.
