:lol:;):lol:jac20 just found Teco #14 - 10 Miles :o;):)

 

Good job!

 

Since you have the upper hand on all the "puzzle veterans" you should definitely make sure that they teach you a few puzzle solving tricks in return for a hint. :lol:

I'm about as easy as Tic Tac Toe (and I don't mean the PB version, either...)

I suspect the puzzle concept for Teco #14 - 10 Miles is new to San Diego puzzle solvers. :D

Don't we all just love the Underdog... :)

 

Anyhoo, just 3 more puzzles + the final to solve - it's almost over and right now I'm out of hints so it might take a while before I post any hints for the remaining puzzles. It's not that I don't want to post hints, it's just that I cannot come up with any hints that does not "give it away."

Love? No. Insanely jealous of? Yeah, that's more like it... :D

One thing I discovered with "Black Mountain Hold'em" is that sometimes hints that practically scream "give away" to the puzzle creator are often not so obvious to the would-be solver. I'll bet there are some more hints inside you that don't give away the store. Nudge, Nudge. :)

Stats - and not much has changed.

The top 3 scores still belong to:

15 f = LLOT, FM, TT

13 f/v = devhead, rjb

12 f = D!

 

I'll post stats again when something new is solved.

You didn't wait for me to log #14... :D

 

Hey now - I was waiting to update until today because I expected you a FM would grab it yesterday but I guess because of the rain and no FTF bragging rights you didn't go. Also, I waited until 9 pm tonight... no log! However, it's OK to toot your own horn... :D

 

Now, solve the rest!!! I'm waiting... patiently... sort of... :anibad:

I'm really glad, in retrospect, that I did not try to go after it in the rain. That could have been bad news... :D

You do know, I hope, that we solved all of the puzzles weeks ago. We're just dragging our feet on the finds in order to torture you. :anibad:

Patrick- we stopped "racing" a long time ago.

 

He said he would take buy the entire FTF team beer and pizza, so I say wait till you get about a dozen people and then all find it at once. =)

The last we spoke, we decided it would be in Tucson at the next Padres-Diamondbacks game. Beers are a bit more expensive in the ballpark, and the transportation for all of us local team members to the venue might cost Patrick a little bit more, but the entertainment can't be beat!

I suspect that this is the reason that we couldn't open the Teco #20 PDF file. It was to buy time in order to replace it with a new PDF file that is unsolvable... :laughing::rolleyes:

Yes, your little plan would have been perfect if it wasn't for them. You would never have had to pay up. But you didn't count on them in your evil little plan, did you? :laughing::rolleyes:

 

Unsolvable or not, I'll get back to that nasty piece of business just as soon as I solve this other puzzle cache I'm working on...

 

...speaking of which, I sure could use a hint on Line 37 of Form 6251 where it says:

Enter the amount from line 6 of the Qualified Dividend and Capital Gain Tax Worksheet for Form 1040, line 44, or the amount from line 13 of the Schedule D Tax Worksheet for Schedule D (Form 1040), which ever applies (as refigured for the AMT, if necessary). If you are filing Form 2555 or Form 2555-EZ, see instructions for the amount to enter

Now that's a tough puzzle cache! :D

I just added a hint to Teco 20 - let's see if anybody is clever enough to figure it out. ;)

 

I also decided to up the ante for the FTF - you get an all day hiking trip in Tecolote Canyon after your pizza and beer :ph34r::):)

Well, then, I guess I am about as clever as a tomato (or is that, tomato?). I can't believe he is making us beg for a hint to access the hint... This whole thing is going to end badly, I'm afraid...

Somwhere in Tecolote Canyon the 5th and last golden ticket to Mr Wanka's Chocolate Factory was located. Oooops, wrong story.

Too bad he didn't notice that poison oak next to his legs there...

 

(Actually, there is no poison oak in the shot, but there are massive forests of the stuff within twenty feet. I was wearing long pants and very glad off it. You're a braver man than I am, Tom!)

:) Congratulations to FlagMan and devhead for FTF and LLOT for STF!!! :rolleyes: Although LLOT could easily been co-FTF with the other guys, he decided to do something other than geocaching - Hmmm... It's the first time I've seen James pass on a FTF - suddenly I got a puzzle idea! B) or not... :(

 

Anyhoo - when's the party???? I'm doing my best to have it on Saturday, June 7th; I'll have to work on a suitable location.

A Peter Piper type of place is good.. Our events in SD seem to get bigger and bigger and those places seem to have more room. :)

This is additional info that could not be listed on the cache page for event GC1BYWT IHO: The Three Musketeers due to its commercial nature. However, I thought it would be a good idea to include it.

NOTE: Due to its commercial nature, this thread will self-destruct within 15 seconds after you've read it... please stand back!!!

Here’s the deal with Round Table: RT’s pizzas can be a little pricey (and also very tasty), but there are several places you can get coupons – perfect for a cacher on a budget, or to save some money towards your next TB.

  • If you live in University City/No Clairemont, look in the Penny saver about mid-month.
  • In the back of the Yellow Book in section C-5 (not the Yellow Pages)
  • On-line at www.RoundTablePizza.com (you need to sign up to be able to print coupons).
  • The restaurant owner has agreed on giving 20% discount on any Large or X-Large pizza when you mention that you’re part of the Geocaching event.

The validation coordinates for #19 are incorrect. Latitude should be smaller by .001 minutes.

 

ETA: Never mind. I am going blind.

 

Never thought I would see this thread again!

 

Wow! I'd forgotten about these! This might be a better time of year to attempt them, with the PO somewhat less rampant. Are we allowed to ask for hints now, Patrick?
