Geocache Description:

The First Rule of Puzzle Fight Club is: you do not talk about Puzzle Fight Club.

The Second Rule of Puzzle Fight Club is: you do not talk about Puzzle Fight Club.

So much for the rules...


The Club

Puzzle Fight Club encourages friendly competition among geocaching puzzle makers. It chose Silicon Valley as its first arena to recognize its high density of tough quality puzzles and puzzle makers. Here is a list of North American cities with 100+ highly favorited (10+ FP) tough (3+) puzzles within 20 miles: Mountain View (193); Sacramento (169); Portland (163); Montreal (161); Seattle (130); Vancouver (121); and Minneapolis (110). Perhaps it will come to Oregon in the near future. But then we couldn't talk about it.

The Contestants

Over a dozen puzzlers from Silicon Valley were invited to participate in round one of Puzzle Fight Club Silicon Valley. Round by round we saw great competitors and great puzzles. Three finalists survived, and now they've released brand new puzzles for this final round:

w00fel Crypto-zoology
The North Star Three In Fifteen
The Rat Positive

The Rules

For this the final round, you the solvers are the judges. Solve at least one of the above three puzzles, and you can vote for your favorite. Solve two puzzles and your vote is worth three points. Solve all three, and your vote is worth five points. Record your vote on this page with a "Write Note", or even better, a Find log! The voting will conclude on November 10, 2016.

The Puzzle

Solve the three contestants' puzzles and calculate the checksum for each. Multiply the three checksums together and enter the 6 digit number into Certitude. Then go out and search for the container at the revealed coordinates. Secret trackable PFC token will be delivered for the FTF!

Congratulations to jewilk1, CrunchyFrog83, and OmNom! for FTF!
