There's a new cache hidden in town, but this one's a little different. I'm not telling you where it is! You'll need to figure that out on your own.
I'm a puzzle guy, and sadly, I'm completely out of ideas. I'm leaving this one totally up to you. In essence, you're creating the puzzle for me. Sound like fun? I hope so. This could turn out to be the best puzzle in town. This could turn out to be the worst puzzle in town. Do me proud! After all, my name is on it!
Here's how this is going to work. I will answer ONE question per day asked by YOU, until the cache is found.
- Questions must be posted as a note to the cache page.
- Questions will only be answered as YES or NO.
- Questions must be understandable by everyone (i.e. no "inside knowledge" questions).
- Questions will be answered in the order they are posted.
- Questions will no longer be answered once the cache has been found (see the fine print).
But wait ... there's more! Each cacher may only ask a maximum of THREE questions - that's all! Thus, cooperation and creativity is strongly encouraged when crafting your questions. The more creative the questions, the better the end result will be. After all, this is YOUR puzzle you're creating.
That's it. Does it all make sense? I now leave it in your hands ... GO!
The Fine Print
- Duplicate questions will be ignored.
- Questions asked by sock puppet accounts will be ignored.
- I may decide to continue to answer questions at regular intervals after the cache is found depending on how it all plays out. We'll cross that bridge when we get there.
- To prevent this from turning into a battleship game, a geochecker will be added only once the puzzle is created (i.e. the cache is found).
- Most importantly, I ask you do not waste the reviewers' time by creating bogus caches in an attempt to brute force the location. If catch wind of this I may have no choice but to archive.
