Geocache Description:

Happy Festivus! The cache is NOT at the coordinates listed above.

Finally! It's Festivus! So I present a geocache for the rest of us.


Are you spongeworthy? Do you shave with butter? Are you a sidler? Do you rob old ladies of their marble rye? Do you know what mulligatawny is? Do you contract an electrician named 'Slippery Pete'? Or are you just a master of the puzzle cache domain. Then here's a simple(???) puzzle cache if you know your Seinfeld.

Answer the following questions in order to find the Festivus pole.

A) By whom was Jerry being interviewed while wearing the infamous "puffy shirt"?

B) How much did Mr. Peterman pay for the slice of wedding cake from the Duke and Duchess of Windsor's wedding?

C) For how much money was "The Bet" made (sum total)?

D) To which state were Kramer and Newman driving, in order to recycle a mail truck full of aluminum cans, hoping to cash in on a recycling refund discrepancy? (Incidentally, there is a law on the books in California, Senate Bill 968, called by the legislature the "Kramer-Newman Prevention Act" that outlaws this scheme explicitly.)

E) Which milepost number began Kramer's mile-long stretch of Adopt-a-Highway?

F) To the nearest dollar, how much is the "early-bird" dinner special at Del Boca Vista, Phase II?

G) What are the names of the two movies that Jerry bootlegs for Kramer's friend Brody? (One Jerry finishes for Kramer, and one Kramer finishes for Jerry).

H) What was the name of the cheap knock-off tip calculator Kramer gave away in hopes of swaying the condo board presidency vote?

I) Calendar date of the incident (DD/MM/YYYY), and uniform number of the man who was actually the "second spitter of the magic loogie" who was behind the bushes on the gravelly road (Sum the individual digits together).

J) What numeral did George want to name his child, only to have Susan's cousin's baby be named it instead?

K) According to Jerry, what percentage of the population is "undateable"? (highest value)

L) How many dollars did the bank give to Kramer to ignore the bank's "hello" policy violation?

M) How much did the sable hat that Elaine bought for George (and expensed to the Peterman account) cost?

N) What was George's all-time top score in Frogger?

O) Due to an ownership conflict concerning properly accredited use of the "move" within New York City limits, Jerry pulled his mechanic business from Puddy. Jerry's Saab then hit a pothole and he got an estimate for the repairs from a different mechanic. For how much was this original estimate?

P) What score did George claim he got on the SATs?

Q) What was Jerry's original reason for returning the crested blazer jacket?

R) Jerry changes size tags in all of his pants to read what waist size, even though he is larger than that.


So here's how this all works. Once you have all the answers, if they are numerical answers, leave them as is. If they are verbal answers, convert each letter in the answer to a numerical value by the following convention: A=1, B=2, C=3,...,Z=26. Sum the total for each verbal answer. For example if the answer were "Kramerica" the value would be 79. Simple? I thought so.

The coordinates for the cache itself are the follwing:
A1 B1 C1 D1 E1 F1 G1
where:
A1 = {(G-E)- [A-((Q-D)*L)]} - [O / (G - E)]
B1 = Q - R - L + J - F
C1 = (N/M)- I - R + F - [(D + R - F^2)/ A]
D1 = B / [(L + R + J) * (K + F)]
E1 = (H + R)
F1 = (E - D) + [A/ (J * L)] + (D^(1/(J - F)))
G1 = (P - C - I - J)
