Geocache Description:


Coords above are fake so you have to solve the problem below first to find the cache.

 

Can you figure out who can be found behind each of these 13 numbers ?

To facilitate they are already sorted in alphabetical order for you here !

82  86  45  40  61  79  71  124  105  83  91  108  68

 

When you have figured out everyone who is connected to a certain number you have to fill the table below with this information.

Take the first letter only of every found nick. Count the amount of these first letters like in the example below.

 

A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z

2   3                              1    4   1             2

 

When you think you know the number of each occuring first letter you write them in a sequence :

In the example above 2 nicks starting with an A would be 2A, 3 starting with B would be 3B, 1 starting with I would be 1I, 4 starting with K would be 4K and so on......

Now write them all in alphabetical order taking the example above again and form a string without spaces : 2A3B1I4K1L2O.

The sum of the digits should of course be 13, specifically honouring Friday 13 when the cache is published.

 

Put the string you just created into the checker and the final cache coords will be shown to you - if it is correct.

Good Luck !
