Congrats to Stick People on yet another FTF!
The geocache is not at the posted coordinates. You must solve the puzzle below to find the coordinates.
From "The Tent Dwellers" by Albert Bigelow Paine
If you aren't familiar with this kind of puzzle, you may want to try solving GC61BVX: (NSML02: a Micro Logic Tutorial) first, or try NSML08, another easy one.
The rules for this puzzle are different from other micro or mega logics.
You can get the coordinates by solving the following:
- Each of the 26 letters A to Z represents a digit between 0 and 9.
- All but 9 of the letters are equal to 1.
- One letter is equal to 0.
- One letter is equal to 2.
- One letter is equal to 3.
- One letter is equal to 4.
- One letter is equal to 5.
- One letter is equal to 6.
- One letter is equal to 7.
- One letter is equal to 8.
- One letter is equal to 9.
- Each word in the text below has a value.
- Word value is determined by multiplying the letters that make up the word. So for example if G = 1, R = 2, E = 5 and N = 1, then GREEN = 1*2*5*5*1 = 50
To confirm your solution and get the cache coordinates, use the checker below. Enter the 9 letters which are not equal to 1, from smallest to largest, in groups of 3 separated by two "." characters. For example if B = 0, A = 2, C = 3, M = 4, E = 5, Z = 6, G = 7, N = 8, K = 9 you would enter BAC.MEJ.GNK .
Now go get it!
You can validate your puzzle solution with certitude.
