Geocache Description:

Episode Eight of a Mystery Cache series dealing with famous or popular people. At the given coords you won't find any container, solve first the riddle in order to get the correct final coords. The container is a 35 mm film canister - BYOP.


Season III will provide less hints, only 3 instead of the typical 10 (or 6) to identify Mr/Mrs X.

ENGLISH :

  1. Look for the hint at the fictive starting point of this mystery (out of the box thinking requested).
  2. I'm a "local entrepreneur" (and self-made man) with a trans-border reputation.
  3. I like it spicy. Do you know Who I am?

DEUTSCH :
  1. Sucht den Hinweis am fiktiven Ausgangspunkt (verschachteltes Denken erforderlich).
  2. Ich bin ein "einheimischer Unternehmer" (und Selfmademan) mit internationalem Ansehen.
  3. Ich mag es scharf. Wer bin ich?

FRANÇAIS :
  1. Cherchez l'indice au point de départ fictif de ce mystère (Pensez différemment, de façon non conventionnelle).
  2. Je suis un « entrepreneur local » (et un « self-made man ») avec une réputation allant au-delà du Luxembourg.
  3. Je aime le « piquant ». Qui suis- je?

N 49°38. "X-1" "Z-3" "Y-3"

Correction Notice to the Final Coords Formula for the outdoor part (due to bad signal capture when hiding the container) :

North -12

East +4

N.B. After calculation of the final coords by the given formula these corrections have to be applied for a more precise information on the stash hide.

N.B. calculations have to be made considering checksumming, e.g. 15+3= 18 -> = 9

X being the second letter of my first name

Y being the seventh letter of my family name

Z being the total number of letters in my complete name (given + family name)
