Geocache Description:

Clyde “Guzuta” is one of the four main ghosts in the Pac-Man series, the orange one.

Of the other three ghosts, Inky is shown to be his closest friend. While the other three are off chasing Pac-Man, Clyde will be doing his own thing. His original English descriptor, Crybaby, refers to his tendency to want to move away from Pac-Man. While his movements have been described as random, Clyde actually does directly chase Pac-Man (exactly the way Blinky does) most of the time. But when Clyde gets within an eight-space radius of Pac-Man, he starts to retreat to the lower left corner of the maze, which is where he targets during scatter mode. He is typically portrayed as the least intelligent and most submissive ghost, he doesn’t mess with Pac-Man much so don’t expect too much trouble from him. This is best shown in the introduction to Pac-Man World 2 where Clyde is seen running from a tree shaped like Pac-Man.

It wasn’t until the Pac-Man animated series that Clyde got his own unique look, appearing as a 1920’s mob boss with a fedora. He retained this appearance in Pac-Land, then lost it until Pac-Man World Rally. Most recently, Clyde has been altered to look much larger than the other ghosts, with tentacle-like appendages. In the original TV series he is the boss of the ghosts, right under Mezmaron. He also tended to get embarrassed the most in cartoons. His voice and temperamental attitude towards the other ghosts in the cartoon mirrors classic comedian Moe Howard, as he also abused and treated the other ghosts as his Stooges. Clyde tended to be the most vengeful towards Pac-Man, and in one episode stated that his full name was Clyde Q Ghostmonster.
