+fizzymagic Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 It's generally considered bad form to ask for help with specific puzzles in the forums. I suggest that you email the cache owner for help if you need it. If you're not comfortable with that, then maybe you could put the cache on your ignore list. Quote Link to comment

How else will u find out? Ive already asked owners and people who have found it. Havent got any replies. Using this as a last resort. Quote Link to comment
+succotash Posted March 9, 2009 Share Posted March 9, 2009 One reason it is considered bad form to ask for specific puzzle help in these forums is that you do not have to find every cache. If you can't figure out a puzzle cache, try setting it aside for a few months. Plan on looking at it again after you have enjoyed finding more caches and learning more about the sport/game of geocaching in general. You will feel great when you solve it and find the cache!

How is it fun if someone hands you the answers? Quote Link to comment

It's not bad form to ask for generic help, like help on how to solve puzzles in general. It's been considered bad form for some time here to ask for help on a specific puzzle, though. The proper thing to do is ask the cache owner for some guidance if you need help on a specific cache. Some owners will reply with help right away. Some will let you work with it a while before responding. Some may not respond at all. Depends on owner preference. If you ask for help in the forums on a specific cache, then the answer to the puzzle gets pretty much laid right out there for all to see, and may spoil the fun for others, especially the cache owner's.
