Solve the two puzzles below to find the co-ords to the cache. The first puzzle is a crossword and the second is a crisscross. The crossword puzzle is a standard puzzle. The crisscross puzzle for those who don't know require you to place each word in the grid so that every word fits perfectly.
For those who didn't notice 4 Down is missing and should be "The Opposite of Go"
Once you have completed both puzzles, apply the following formula to calculate the final co-ords
For the crossword
[A,5,6] refers to the 5th word, 6th character, Across
[D,7,1] refers to the 7th word, 1st character, Down
For the crisscross
[A,T] is the top left word (Across)
[D,T] is the top left word (Down)
[A,L] is the bottom right word (Across)
[D,L] is the bottom right word (Down)
The cache is located at S26 AB.CDE and E27 FG.HIJ
Now convert each letter to its numerical equivalent ie A=1, B=2, C=3 etc..
Now apply the following formula:
A=[A,15,3]-[A,21,1]
B=[D,22,1]+[D,25,5]
C=[A,27,2]-[D,2,1]
D=[A,31,2]-[D,26,3]
E=[A,1,4]-[D,22,1]
F=[D,L,4]+[A,T,3]
G=[A,L,2]-[D,T,6]
H=[A,L,5]-[A,T,5]
I=[A,T,7]-[D,L,4]
J=[A,L,3]-[D,T,7]
