Welcome to my virtual game of Tic-Tac-Toe. In each of the nine traditional Redbird Creek Trail caches (listed below) you will find a clue (for example "A X 1"). Once you have all nine clues jotted down come back here and read on for how to calculate the coordinates for the final.
GC4HDJW, GC4HDMF, GC4HDQT, GC4HDR7, GC4HDT6, GC4HDW3, GC4HDX0, GC4HDX4, GC4HDX9
Each of the clues has three parts
A-J (Replace the I with a J) = the position on the board (see image below)
X O = which player
1-9 = what number to use in the formula
Place the players mark (XO) and the corresponding number onto a blank board in the position indicated. Your result should look something like this.
So who won the game?
In the example it was the O player.
Take the wining players numbers and put them in the order they appear on the board.
exp 63791
Take the losing players numbers and put them in the order they appear on the board adding a zero to the end.
exp 85460
FOR THIS CACHE:
Take the winning players numbers and put them in the order they appear on the board adding a zero to the end.
Take the losing players numbers and put them in the order they appear.
Now take your two five digit numbers and plug them into the following equations.
(winners #) - 46518 = ??.???
(losers #) - 23450 = ??.???
Finally use the new winners # to complete the North coordinate
N 31° ??.???
and the new losers # to complete the West coordinate
W 081° ??.???
Remember, it is all about the miles and the smiles!
