Note that no hint shall be given on Puzzle #1, at least until the cache is found by a Puzzle #2 solver.
Puzzle #2:
I will answer questions that are clear, unambiguous, and are meaningful to all, and that can be answered in YES/NO. I will not answer questions that are relative to other caches to avoid any possible abuse of this puzzle to find other caches. I will answer no more than one (1) questions per day. Post your question as a note on the cache page, and I will answer in the same way. Each Geocacher can ask up to three (3) questions — but only one (1) at a time, please. Be strategic, and be creative; you are designing the puzzle for posterity!
Once the cache has been found by a Puzzle #2 solver, there will be no more answers.
Since I will only answer one question per day (not per cacher per day), it does not make sense for you to "stack up" questions. If there's already an unanswered question, it's best to let yours wait until there's an opportunity, at which time you could ask a more specific one. First come first served, based on the order in which the notes were posted.
Here is the summary of the Q&As, just for your convenience, but there may be a delay and/or even unintentional errors. I recommend you to cross-reference the posted Q&As.
