Geocache Description:


Please note that the posted coordinates are bogus. You need to solve the mystery to get the actual coordinates for the cache!!!
This cache is placed at: N 56° 45.7AB E 008° 41.8CD

For this cache you will need the following tools:
A pen, paper, a calculator and a deck of playing cards.

Watch in awe as the great and powerful Trixie performs the most fantacular deeds of magic ever witnessed by human eyes!
For her first trick Trixie will need you to get a deck of playing cards.
You will need the cards Ace, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, Queen and King, one of each. The color doesn't matter.
Place them face up on the table so they are reassembling the face of a clock, use the Queen as 11 and the King as 12.
Now place your finger on the King, on the number 12.
Trixie wants you to think of a number on the clock, any number you want. Trixie doesn't care which.
Now spell the number you're thinking of while moving your finger clockwise on the cards.
(e.g.) Are you thinking on the number 6, spell with your finger s-i-x and you will end on the number 3.
(e.g.) Are you thinking on the number 12 spell: t-w-e-l-v-e and you will now be at number 6.
You did so? ...good. Keep your finger on your new number.
Now continue around the clock spelling the number you are on right now.
Done? Now do it one more time.
...Keep your finger on this card.
Trixie knows your finger isn't on the number 2, 4, 8 or on the King anymore.
Please remove them.
Now do it one more time, spell the number you are on using the remaining cards in the clock.
Are you on your new number? Trixie knows you're not on the number 3... not on the 10 ...not on the 5... Aha!, Trixie knows where you are now!
You had a free choice, you could have picked any number you wanted but the number you are on right now is the number for the letter B.

For Trixies second number you will need the cards 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, a fool and a random card. The color doesn't matter.
Place the cards like this with the random card face down:



Trixie wants you to place your finger on the random face down card.
Doing the trick you can move your finger from side to side, you can move your finger up or down, you can visit a card you have visited before but you mustn't move diagonal.
Okay? Now make a move.
Trixie knows you finger is at the number 2 or 4 now. Keep it there and remove the card with the face down.
Trixie wants you to move your finger 7 times now.
Now remove the number 3.
Move 3 more times and Trixie predicts that you haven't chosen the number 7. Remove it.
Move 7 more times. This time Trixie will remove number 2.
Let's go again, 5 times. and remove the number 5.
Trixie wants you to move again. 9 times and remove number 4.
Here we go again, 3 times. remove the fool.
Trixie wants you to make one last move and predicts this is the number for the letter D.

For her next trick Trixies will provide the cards but you will need a calculator.



Trixie wants you to write down the number of anyone of these cards on a piece of paper.
Now multiply your number by 2.
Add 5 to your total.
Multiply the number you have now by 50.
Now, if you've had your birthday already this year, Trixie wants you to add 1770 to your number. If you have not had your birthday yet this year, add 1769.
Subtract the year you were born from your four digit number.
Trixie predicts you got a three digit number now, the first digit being the original number you chose, the second two being your age. Truly there is no secrets to the Great and Powerful Trixie!
Whats that? you haven't got the number for your letter yet?
Fine...

Pick the number of a new card like you did before.
Now multiply the number by 2.
Add 14 to your number.
Divide your number by 2.
Trixie hopes you remember the number you picked cause you have to subtract if from your current number.
Now subtract your number by 3.
Voilá, your number for the letter C.

In this trick you will have to think of a number, choose any 2 digit number you want.
Add the 2 digits together.
Subtract that number from your original number.
Now find your number below.



Trixie says the number for the letter A depends on the color of your secret number.

Pink: A=1
Orange: A=5
Purple: A=9
Gray: A=7
Yellow: A=2
Green: A=3
Black: A=6
Red: A=4
Brown: A=8
