Geocache Description:



Miss Scarlet - CARW2022





CLUE.  We played Clue all the time when we were kids. I always wanted to be Colonel Mustard and I loved the tiny weapons that came with the game!!  Miss Scarlet always seemed to be the killer but it was never something obvious like the knife in the kitchen.  It was usually the lead pipe or the wrench in the Conservatory as those items are always just laying around in a Conservatory whatever that room was!  Anyway, for those that may have forgot or for the few that never played, the goal of Clue was to guess which character killed Mr. Boddy in which room and with which weapon. Once you were sure of all 3 you could make an Accusation and if you were right then you won and the game was over.

 

This series is a tribute to the game of Clue. There is one cache for each of the 6 weapons, one cache for each of the 6 characters and one cache for each of the 9 rooms. To solve the puzzle for Accusation you will need to determine which room the killing took place in to get the northing and which character was the murderer to get the westing.  This puzzle can be solved online and should be done before CARW starts or at least before you go hunting for caches. To find Mr. Boddy you will need to physically visit all 6 of the weapons caches and do some sleuthing with your UV light to determine which one is the murder weapon so you can then solve the field puzzle at Accusation. Please don’t take any of the objects in the caches as these contain the log books or might be needed for the puzzles and are for ornamental purposes and they are NOT swag.



At a party, Miss Scarlett was heard to say: “Newborns don’t shed tears.”



 

Have fun playing Clue again!!

 

P.S. I think Clue was just a geocaching hint before geocaching was even invented . . . CLUE: Carefully Look Under Everything!!!

P.P.S. A shout out to Mr. Boddy is warranted as he was killed more times than Kenny from South Park!
