Hider's deadline: December 31 Finders deadline: January 31
The game is simple: go to a location where a Signal has been spotted. If you get there first, you will find a Signal tag waiting for you. Please take the physical tag as your own, but don't grab more than one. You'll need to claim the tag as soon as possible so it can be removed from the map. Then, follow the instructions to redeem it for a trackable geocoin prize that combines with the tag! How cool is that?
What's more, Geocaching HQ Lackeys are participating and hiding their very own special edition tags!
This is an international game, so check out distributors here: Shop Geocaching.
Stay alert - and set an alert - because a Signal may appear at any time and anywhere!

This close to all hallows and it felt like world were colliding. After having promoted STT to someone on Saturday I knew I needed to be quick. Unlike Bessie Surtess I did not mount a stead behind my lover, I boarded a stagecoach, which according to how many time the driver stopped to read the newspaper he was early. Now the debate raged in my mind, to approach the Black Gate from the cathedral or the station. I hoped I picked right. The ancient pagan gods were on my side, each crossing I approached was clear, no living in my way. A light emanated from above my target, a quick glance around reassured me the ghosts of the keep were quiet, no arrows flying down from ghostly guards. Another look around and I knew I was alone and able to make my approach. At first glance my heart dropped I could not see my prize, only thing left to do was to brave the cobwebs with my hands and feel around. Finally I felt something, something familiar, something that was not meant to be there. Fingers tightened onto it and pulled the sneaky hidden devil out into the (street)light. I looked around one last time, the ghostly secrets were being kept tonight, but this devilish one was mine.

THE TAG IS NOT AT THE POSTED LOCATION, BUT IT IS NEARBY
There are devils; evil spirits that are said to have failed to cross over to the other side, and there are she-devils; beautiful women that bewitch men.
Towns are filled with ghost stories; shapes at windows, and ghostly shadows that walk graveyards, but there are few locations where these two devils meet.
In Newcastle, there is one such place, a location where black shadows have been said to appear, and a woman so beautiful that her lover disobeyed his fathers wishes, and they eloped in a most unusual way!
The tag is not hidden at the posted location, but if you know your Newcastle legends then the meeting of a "dark portal" and the steps to "mans best friend" will be the only hints you need to discover the hiding place of this devil.......

Even een uitleg van ons: Voor deze tag hebben een denkwijze toegepast die we zelf hadden bedacht bij het oplossen van een snag puzzel (https://albatross.snagthetag.com/viewTag.php?id=68) , niet dat we daar wat aan hadden want we zaten op het verkeerde spoor. We zagen hier namelijk 23 albatrossen en als je zoekt op 23 albatrossen of albatros 23 dan kom je bij een sloep (boot) terecht. En deze stond te koop op marktplaats. Nu onze puzzel: Op het plaatje wat bij de tag stond, stond een pompoen op een boek met de cijfers 7 en 9 of te wel 79. 79 is het element nummer van goud. Je had dus kunnen bedenken dat het ging om “het gouden pompoen boek” van o.a. Michel Brancucci. Het bogus coördinaat was gesitueerd bij Streekwinkel De Gouden Pompoen in Deventer. Nog een keer de gouden pompoen. Als je op zoek was gegaan naar het boek dan had je een advertentie kunnen vinden op marktplaats waar dit boek te koop werd aangeboden. De verkoper van dit boek (wij dus) verwijst in de tekst naar een andere advertentie, hier werd een cowboy verkleed kostuum aangeboden, wat Signal is toch verkleed als cowboy, in de tekst hiervan werd gevraagd welke cowboy het is. En dat was de man die sneller schiet dan zijn schaduw: Lucky Luke! Als je dit in de checker invulde kreeg je de juiste vindplaats.
Zwaartjes nogmaals gefeliciteerd! En wie weet tot in Naarden!

Wow! When I got up and saw there were two new tags in my area this morning, I had no hopes of getting either one. (I'm not a morning person, lol). But I looked at the website and neither one had been found--until just as I was looking--right that moment Adrian claimed the first one. So I looked at the 2nd one and thought "I have just enough time to get to the other one before Adrian gets there!" Luckily I'm very familiar with this cemetery and knew exactly where to zoom! And just as I snagged the tag, Adrian pulled up! I made it by seconds! Thanks!

Pfoehhh waar zal ik beginnen, als deze tag online komt is de aandacht getrokken, maar de afstand iets minder... Deventer..., maar even kijken kan geen kwaad! Een plaatje met twee cijfers.... Een 9 en een 7 maar dat geeft niks... Plaatje door Google Lens heen en die wordt snel gevonden, zonder de cijfers, dus daar moet vast iets mee, maar wat.... Er gaan geen lampjes branden, tot er hints komen. De hele site van het bogus punt de streek winkel is uitgekamd, maar niks spannends te vinden. Dan komt er zondag als we op visite zijn bij een vriend nog een hint... We gooien het daar in de groep en laten het plaatje zien....., tot hij ineens zegt: tweedehands spullen verkoop je op marktplaats. Laten we zoeken op een "pompoen snijdt boek". Dat is al snel gevonden, met jawel ook het plaatje wat op de stt site staat! Dus ik roep stuur een bericht, zonder verder te lezen....., maar na het verstuurde bericht zien we de tekst "er zijn er nog meer". Dus even kijken wat dat nog brengt, dan komen we op een pagina met een cowboy kostuum waar de vraag onder staat "wie is dit" ? Nou dat is jeugdsentiment dat is Lucky Luke!!! Zouden we dit dan moeten invullen in de checker! Niet geschoten altijd mis, en ja hoor groen..... Juichen, tot Google maps aangeeft dat het twee uur rijden is.... En er andere afspraken op de agenda staan. Laten we verdelen, er stapt er 1 in de auto en de ander blijft checken op de groene checkers en doet een verjaardag! Dat gaat gelukkig heel lang goed, tot de site eruit klapt en de checker niet meer gezien word, maar als ik hem niet zie, dan een ander ook niet! Na twee uur rijden is de ene Zwaartjes helft dan toch op locatie aangekomen! Na een foutje in de coördinaten en een verkeerde voortuin, uiteindelijk toch in de goede beland! En ja hoor daar achter de 3d geprinte voordeur vindt hij dan toch signal the frog in zijn pompoen kostuum!!! Thnx Hider voor dit avontuur en de hints, want we zijn er denk ik niet op de juiste manier gekomen, maar we kwamen er toch!!! Even kijken hoe de agenda loopt, maar we doen ons best in Naarden te zijn!

We were rushing out to Seattle to try and snag an HQ Signal, refreshing every other minute hoping we’d be the first. Every exit from Vancouver to Seattle I was wondering if this would be the exit where we had to turn around… well, this was is!!! All I should say was Teni OH NO!! When I saw the exit sign and the update on the site.
Enjoy this creepy cowboy hiding with his 3 spooky spirit friends. They are haunting the rocks, one may even be watching you

I had just completed the new Adventure Lab in the city when the tags were published.

Van harte gefeliciteerd met jullie tag. De adrenaline zal hoog hebben gezeten tijdens die autorit. Maar gelukkig is het niet voor niets geweest!
De puzzel zelf waren allemaal omschrijvingen die wezen naar een oplossing met het woord spin er in. En als je dan de letters op de juiste plek zet, komt er inderdaad Benedictus de Spinoza uit.
