The Love/Hate of Puzzle Caches is NOT at the coordinates listed!
The cache is a micro tube container. It can be found at the following coordinates:
North AB degrees CD.EFG
West HIJ degrees KL.MNO
This is actually a puzzle for those cachers who aren’t really all that good with puzzles. Fill in the coordinate letters with the following:
A = The number of times in the last two minutes that you uttered the words "I love puzzle caches." or "I hate puzzle caches." or "What's a puzzle cache?" or any other related phrase. Oh come on, people, you knew this one was a 5 before you even started reading!
B = Take the last two digits of the year you were born. Multiply by 4. Divide by 6; discard any fraction. Subtract 17, but don't go below zero. Multiply by 3. Add 1164. Divide by 6 again. Discard the resulting number and use 2. (You knew this one too, didn't you?)
C = If there are 14 apples in a basket and you take away 6, how many apples do you have? No, it's 0; we forgot to mention we took the other 8.
D = Take the number of characters in Mackdog2's cacher name (all 8). Multiply by 1. Divide by 1.
E = Take the number of letter's in Kris12345's cacher name. Letters, not numbers and add 2. If you're confused..just use 6.
F = Take the number of geocoins that Northbound has activated. Subtract 50. Add 4. Divide by 10. Or save time and just use 4, because they might have activated more by now anyway.
G = How many apples do you have left from above? Right, we took those, but if you go back to the basket, maybe you can get 3 more.
HIJ = Yeah, you’re learning. You've already written 107, haven’t you?
K = Pick a number, any number. Is it 1? Good for you, you got it right!
L = We’re thinking of a number between 7 and 9. No, we mean the number of drinks we had between 7:00 and 9:00 last Saturday night. OK, we lost track too. Let’s just say it was 5.
M = Which number occurs most often in the published coordinates? Is it repeated 9 times? More than 9? Less than 9? Do you need 9 hints? How about 9 guesses? We hope it doesn’t take you 9 minutes to figure this one out.
N = Take the number of letters in the cache owner’s name. Make a bunch of calculations using both multiplication and division. Throw in some addition and subtraction, too; in any order. Then add up the resulting digits and keep adding them until you get down to one digit. If it's not a 0, then you did it wrong.
O = OK, this one is going to be really hard: take the number 3. .........Oh, never mind; just use that number.
P = No, there isn’t any letter P in the coordinates. Just wanted to see if you were paying attention.
Now, if you aren’t exhausted from the exertion of brain power required to solve this puzzle, go get the cache. Happy Hunting!
