+Max and 99 Posted March 29, 2020 Share Posted March 29, 2020 (edited) This is The Chief, head of the counterintelligence agency CONTROL, based in Washington D.C. Geocachers and Waymarkers, the U.S. Government needs your help! About two months ago we sent Agents 86 and 99 undercover on a mission to track down a KAOS agent. News was that the agent was last seen in the Southwest, disguised as a University of Arizona professor of genealogy. It has been a little over a month since I’ve heard from my top agents, and I need your help. Knowing Max and 99, surely they left a hidden message for me, but even with all the resources at CONTROL we can’t find it. Bruce and Lloyd have hacked into Max and 99’s account so we could send this message, but the highly trained duo cannot find any pertinent information on their whereabouts. The first geocacher or waymarker who sends me the complete translated message will be awarded the rank of CONTROL’s 3rd best agent. Private messaging is required, and the Cone of Silence is my preferred method of communication. The first five geocachers or waymarkers who send me the complete message translation will each get a gift. You must state that you did not get help or hints from anyone. Please do not post any hints or spoilers on social media or here in the forums until Max and 99 are safely back at CONTROL HQ. CONTROL appreciates any help you can offer. We need our top agents back! We are counting on you, geocachers and waymarkers! The Chief Edited March 29, 2020 by Max and 99 1 Link to comment

+Max and 99 Posted April 1, 2020 Author Share Posted April 1, 2020 Breaking News from CONTROL. Since the U.S. Government has ordered all non-essential businesses to close, we may need to close our field office. I am waiting for clarification if the government is shutting itself down. We will cross that bridge when the time comes. The Chief. Link to comment
+Max and 99 Posted April 1, 2020 Author Share Posted April 1, 2020 (edited) If you failed your agent code breaking class, no worries! Max and 99 would have considered that when sending me a message. They mostly use the same 3 codes The Chief. Edited April 1, 2020 by Max and 99 Link to comment
