The cache is at the above coordinates: HOWEVER- This is a challenge cache; only cachers who meet the qualifying requirements should log this cache. Logs not meeting the requirements will be deleted.
Placed in honor of GC1N86H: A Javapgmr Challenge - Punctuation
There are 13 punctuation marks: 27 if you like to overdo things and include math. Your mission, should you choose to accept it, is to find 20 caches; One with each punctuation mark or math symbol, or other mark, in its name.
The placed date of each find must be before the placement date of this challenge. (Dec 22, 2012) You cannot be the owner a cache you are claiming. You can only claim one punctuation mark for each cache you are claiming. (the exceptions being quotes, parenthesis and brackets- they have to be in pairs) If your cache has more than one type of mark, you must indicate in your log or bookmark list which symbol is the one you are using for that particular cache. Any ‘found’ logs without documentation for the requirements will be deleted. you documentaion can be either a bookmark (recommended) or a list of finds. Having a cache owner change the name of a cache so that you can claim it is cheating, and the geocaching gods will smite you. We wouldn't want that, would we?
Three periods will be counted as an ellipsis; two hyphens will count as a dash.
The accepted symbols are ~ ! @ # $ % ^ & * ( ) - + = { } [ ] : ; “ “ ‘ ? / … -- _ \ < > and . (The period is included. The above sentence looks strange, but it would look stranger with commas.) The above are from a standard keyboard: if you find caches with symbols such as ¥, ÷, §, etc. Great. But they won’t count for the purposes of this challenge. Don’t worry; we’ll make a cache for those, later.
Cache is between a micro and a small: bring a pen. The difficulty reflects how hard it can be to find all those symbols. Even I don’t have all 27 (22, last time I checked). Please be discrete, and HAVE FUN! Congrats to Ramcrest for being FTF!
