You've now completed the Shakespeare series - all
37 plays that inspired 38 caches. Once you've logged a find on all
of them, you may log a find for this cache. If you found all the
caches, you have all the information needed to find this cache.
However, I will e-mail you the final coordinates through
your profile after you log the last of the 38 caches.
A bookmark list of all the caches in the series can be found
here. |

Winter Information
I've updated the Available In Winter attribute for
all the caches in the series.
- Available - The cache should not be much harder to find
with snow on the ground. This can be because it will not be covered
with much snow or the hint is pretty good.
- Not Reported - The cache can be found with snow on the
ground, but it may take some poking around and possibly some
digging in geo-obvious places.
- Not Available - The cache will be very difficult or
almost impossible to find with more than a couple inches of snow on
the ground.
I have no intentions of changing any cache in the series that is
older than 6 months to make it more winter friendly. If a cache has
been out less than 6 months and is winter-unfriendly, I may make
small changes or be willing to give extra extra help to locate it
in winter.

Please Note
- You do not have to solve this puzzle. After you log the last of
your 38 caches, I will e-mail you the final coordinates.
- The cache is a small lock &.
- Please do not log this cache until
you have found all the other caches in the Shakespeare
series.
The Rewards
"Remember our reward, when the
deed is done."
Richard III (Act I, Scene IV)
This series is a challenging one and it's always nice to get a
prize at the end of a challenge. I will have prizes and a
certificate for the first 12 finders of this cache and certificates
for everyone else. Sometime in April, I'll be holding an event at a
favorite watering hole in Manchester. At that time, I'll let any of
the remaining first twelve finders select a prize in the order in
which they logged the cache. I'll also distribute all the
certificates to all the finders that evening.
This is a list of the prizes available from top to bottom, left
to right.

Premium Member Caches
Several of the Shakespeare caches are now restricted to premium
members only. I've placed the restriction on these caches because
of persistent muggle problems and I'm hoping making it harder to
get the coordinates will discourage muggles. If you are not a
premium member and you have found twelve or more of the
Shakespeare caches, I will gladly work with you to find and log the
premium caches in the series.
Retirement of the series!
As of January 1, 2010, I will begin
retiring the Shakespeare caches. I'll retire a cache on its fourth
anniversary or when it needs maintenance - whichever comes first.
So, if you want to finish the series, you should note which ones
are coming up for retirement.
I've changed the tables below to help track the comings and
goings of the caches. Caches listed in red have been archived. Caches listed in
yellow will be archived
within 6 months. Cachers are only listed in the "Still To Find"
section if their outstanding caches are still available.
If you have found all the Shakespeare caches other than the
muggled caches (those that were archived before
their 4th anniversary), you are also eligible to log this bonus
cache. More details soon.
