Geocache Description:

THERE IS NOTHING TO SEE AT THE POSTED COORDINATES!

This is a wherigo cache. You will need a wherigo capable device to complete this cache. Unlike other wherigos in the HR area, this is a play-anywhere cartridge, meaning you can play this cartridge in the comfort of your home.

For more information on this cache type, visit wherigo.com or use my wherigo cheat sheet.

Alert: You are best to complete this cartridge on a smartphone. It was tested on three different smartphones and worked on all of them. But when it was tested on one of the capable GPS units, it crashed when asked to view the inventory.

Many thanks to Great Scott! for test driving the cartridge prior to publishing!

This cartridge is a trivia game. When you start the cartridge, you will be asked a series of multiple choice questions of various diffculties from various categories. The categories are art, entertainment, geography, history, science, and sports. Each category has 10 questions and 1 "crown question" in the queue. By answering a crown question correctly, you earn the crown for that category. The object of the game is to eventually collect all 6 crowns.

Here's how the game works:

1. First, download the cartridge to your wherigo capable device.

2. Start the cartridge using your respective app, answer the first few administrative questions, and then start playing the game.

3. If you answer a question correctly, you become eligible for a crown question. The odds of the next question being a crown question are 1 in 7. If you answer a crown question correctly, the odds of the next question being a crown question are still 1 in 7. So in theory, if you are really lucky, you can complete the game in as few as 7 questions. However, there is no maximum, and before you ask, yes, it is possible/probable for some questions to repeat due to the relatively small number of questions in the queue.

4. You do not "lose your turn" if you answer a question incorrectly. You stay in the game, however the next question is NOT going to be a crown question. After getting one wrong, you must get one right before you can become eligible again for a crown question. If you get one wrong, you will not be given the correct answer as you might see the question again sometime throughout the game.

5. Each crown has a number associated with it. If you get all 6 crowns by answering all 6 crown questions correctly, you will have the info needed to solve for the location of the geocache.

Side Note: While I do not provide a time limit, I encourage you to try to answer the questions without using the web. In case you couldn't tell, the penalty for guessing is not that severe. Try to test your own knowledge before resorting to outside sources!
