Clevedon Cluedo Mystery Cache

This cache has been archived.

Team Mojo 100: I think this cache has run its course. Many of the original answer caches have been archived, and cachers aren't as creative with hints as they used to be! Therefore I'm opening up the available space for another potential cache.

Geocache Description:

The cache is not at the listed coordinates (Clevedon Pier)- don't search there because you won't find it!

This cache is a sequel to Weston Wordplay (GC3YQTG). It's not quite a board game of murder mystery, but a (hopefully fun) puzzle nonetheless...

Written below are five phrases. These phrases are the clues (hint items) of any 6 caches within 5 miles of the listed coordinates (but NOT in Wales). Once you have figured out the caches that the clues match to, you must look at its date of placement. The number of the month it was placed in is the number.

Eg. X) "Thirsty work this caching!" is the clue for, Find this if you can! (GC4XGAY), hidden in January 2014. January is the 1st month so X=1.

Notes:
-At least one cache involved was hidden in Oct/Nov/Dec. These months have two digits, so in this case the units digit is used.

-"caches within 5 miles of the listed coordinates" refers to the listed coordinates of the caches; it is not always the case that the final is also within 5mi for some multis/mysteries.

- All caches involved are visible to all members (not premium only).

- The phrases are exactly as worded in their respective hints and are unique to one cache within the 5 mile radius (Don't worry- there aren't any generic hints like 'Base of tree' or 'Take a seat')

- The caches are of any type (except event), age and hider, and active at the time of this cache's publication. If the caches in question become archived, the number will be replaced with a new cache that has the same month of placement.

The Clues:

A) See how you could get lost now? The cache is around 60 feet away from your location. Now your lost, look for a sign.
B) Say hello to Brian.
C) Don't worry you haven't crashed yet!
D) Buffalo or Bird?
E) Reach up! Stealth required - At any time.
F) Beware the Dragon - search the bracket
N51° 26. (B-C) (F+E) (D-B-E)
W002° 51. (D-C) A (A*E)

(Note: * is multiplied by, / is divided by)


Difficulty is respective of the challenge required in the puzzle. The cache itself shouldn't be too hard to find with the given clue. The cache should be okay for wheelchair users; if it isn't then let me know.

If you are the owner of one (or more?) of the caches involved and don't want your cache used for this puzzle, let me know, and I'll replace it.
