FTF and 200!

I have to tell you guys about this, seeing how anyone who isn't playing just doesn't get the awesomeness of what happened.
You see, yesterday I found my 200th cache.
It was a mystery. 
In another country than the one I live in. 
Difficulty Four. 
And my first FTF! 

I stumbled upon it by accident while browsing for caches to take while me and Utilikiltarian are on our vacation in Sweden. Mysteries while on vacation is a rarity, but I got curious what this one was about and eventually mathematical equations were rolling around in my head like crazy. I HAD to solve this one!
It had already been up for weeks without anyone solving it, so of course the hope of maybe being the FTF was too much to miss out on.

FAIL!

After days and days of errors on geochecker I stare at the papers next to me, covered in scribbles and numbers. I was giving up, it just wasn't my turn.
Then I saw it.
The first number sequence, on the first paper... Could it be that easy? 


CORRECT!


As it turned out i had the answer all along, I was just thinking too complicated, convinced it had to be multiplied, added, morphed.
But there it was, the green light.  I squeaked (I know, I'm such a girl) and ran to the train, afraid that with my luck someone would find it during the 40 minutes it would take me to get there...

They didn't. I got it. I frikkin' rock. 

Cache: "IDM One" Completed!

Geocaching - An obsession.

Mystery cache published!

I've been thinking of creating this mystery-cache for a while and finally I got it made and it was published this morning!

"Crappy Business"

To me a mystery-cache doesn't just have to be a history-lesson, a math problem or anything that you have to search the interwebs to find the answers for.  No, sometimes I think that as long as the information you want to get out gets through, that's good enough.  

So my cache is exactly that. I have all the information needed to finish the cache in the text itself. What better way to make sure people really read it?  

Of course, typical of me, this cache is a bit unusual in it's content.... 

You see, it's about poop. Dog-Poop to be exact.

Of course, the final location is in the woods, as my favourite caches always are.

It's about me being so sick of people not picking up after their pets and being the math-nerd that i am I calculated through statistics how many dogs are in the area and how long it would take for them to cover Oslo, Norway's main street in shit. 

Not interesting to you?  It doesn't matter, as long as you remember the info. And believe me, odds are that you will. 

Geocaching - For tough cookies.
