Stranger In The Alps Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 I've placed several puzzle caches before and have a tendency to misrate the difficulty since they always seem easy to the puzzle creator. So does any good puzzle solver want to have a look at a puzzle I'm working on? I'm thinking it's about a 3.5 or maybe 4 star puzzle, so if possible I'd like to have someone who likes kind-of-hard puzzles to have a look. Anyone interested send me an email. Maybe I'll throw in a pathtag. Yes, this is a sock puppet account since I don't really want to advertise to any area cachers that a puzzle is coming out. Quote Link to comment

Why not, I'm not that good at puzzle caches though. But that might be a good thing because then you will know that it is hard. Send me an email of it if you want to. Quote Link to comment

I've solved a handful of 3 to 5 star puzzles so I have a pretty good idea of what a 3.5 star puzzle should look like. You can PM me or just send me a message through my profile. Quote Link to comment
+FacetiousLee Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 Sure, I'll take a look at it. I'm always up for a puzzle. Quote Link to comment
+Navi-Gatr Posted August 10, 2010 Share Posted August 10, 2010 I'm a fan of puzzles. I'll give it a try Quote Link to comment
+qurlix Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 I'll give it a go. I love solving puzzles long-distance, but I guess I haven't actually found that many in-person, so I won't be insulted if you leave me out. Is that username a reference to the censored version of The Big Lebowski? Quote Link to comment
+rjb43nh Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 I've found over 900 puzzles, I'll take a look at what you have. Contact me through my profile. Quote Link to comment
+Ike 13 Posted August 11, 2010 Share Posted August 11, 2010 I'll take a look. This week is very busy for me, but I always enjoy looking at puzzles. Quote Link to comment
+Hockeyhick Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 Sent a pm to your account. I'll be glad to give it a look-see! Quote Link to comment
+Red Bone Posted August 12, 2010 Share Posted August 12, 2010 I prefer puzzles to traditional so I'd be willing to give yours a try. Quote Link to comment
Stranger In The Alps Posted August 13, 2010 Author Share Posted August 13, 2010 Wow, lots of people offered to help. Thank you to everyone who looked at it and provided valuable feedback. The cache is now published in case any of you want to see how it turned out. The puzzle is in Michigan, so probably not within finding distance for many of you, but here it is: Wheel of Misfortune Quote Link to comment
