Given the log from 'Long John Silva ' dated Nov/08/2018:
'Damaged container taken at the request of the CO... nothing to find at the moment"

I am wondering why this cache is not Disabled, as there is currently no cache to be found at the GZ.

The cache has now been Disabled - please indicate a date when you expect to be able to address the issue. A response within 14 days (by 27th January) would be appreciated, otherwise, it will be necessary to withdraw the cache from the Active listing.

I started this series a bit over 5 years ago by finding Scarlet in August 2013 and then Plum and Green a couple of months later in October. A couple of years later I found a new Green which didn't progress the series any. Things were rather quite until yesterday when I took the opportunity to find Mustard... and find that the cards had gone again!

I contacted LouiseAnn... and wasn't surprised to be told that enough was enough and the series was likely to go. With a bit of time on my hands this morning... and with a bit of help from LouiseAnn... I came out and found this cache. The container was badly damaged and the log book soaked... but unlike Mustard, the cards were still there.

Thanks **LouiseAnn** for the cache and the series.

--------

###**CACHE OWNER ACTION REQUIRED PLEASE**###

----------

I've noticed this cache is carrying a maintenance log which really does need to be addressed by the cache owner.

The guidelines indicated that periodic visits to check on the cache, as well as prompt attention to any logs that indicate there is a problem, are part of the [**cache owners responsibilities.**](https://www.geocaching.com/play/guidelines#listingmaintenance)

It does not appear from logs that the CO has visited this cache recently, so it is being Disabled to remove it from search lists.

**There needs to be a response to this situation (or intentions indicated) within 14 days, so others know exactly what is happening with this cache.**

You have lots of choices so pick the one that applies from this handy list:

- Repair and/or Replace your cache or do whatever else is needed, post an [**Owner Maintenance log**](http://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=404) and [**ENABLE your cache.**](https://support.groundspeak.com/index.php?pg=kb.page&id=235 ) Then sit back and wait for the praises.

- If you don't plan on fixing it up then please [**Archive it**](https://www.geocaching.com/help/index.php?pg=kb.chapter&id=38&pgid=56) so it is removed from searches and someone else can have the spot. Don't forget to remove any remnants of your previously enjoyed cache too.

- If you really hope to get it fixed but there is some unusual reason why you can't do it soon, then at least post a Write Note log (within 14 days). Be sure to indicate the actual date that you expect to have it fixed so that everyone knows you are on top of it. For ongoing issues (where you don't have an actual date) please ensure you visit the page and post a note every 28 days so as to keep everyone up to speed.

You might wonder what happens if you don't pick one of those. Well, if nothing happens, then a few weeks from today, when I next look at the cache page, it is likely that I will, unfortunately, have to de-list (Archive) it on the basis that it has been abandoned.

Honestly, I'd rather you decide so please do something before then. Please don't send me an email but instead follow the information/advice posted above.

At WP1, the coords were quickly found. At GZ, the cache was found after a brief search. TFTC
 
Hole in the container which will need replacing
 
29-Jul-18
This should have been quickly found but when you misplace a digit in the puzzle you end up at an illogical place. Rework the puzzle and get a logical location. The cache was then quickly recovered and SL. TNLN. Thanks LouiseAnn for the hunt and chase.
The cache container is damaged and requires attention. The log book was placed in a zip bag to keep it dry. Dipped some trackables.

Thanks for the cache LouiseAnn

Accompanied with crank1 on caching day in Burwood area. Nice weather. Puzzle solved. Nice and found. Thanks LouiseAnn for the multi
 
24-Jun-18
Relatively quick find here. My first in the cluedo series - might need to set aside some time for the rest! TFTC
 
02-Apr-18
Collected the numbers, did the calculations and was soon at a good-looking GZ. But could not find the cache anywhere. As I walked back to the car I happened to look down, and there was the cache, some 60m west of where it was supposed to be!!!

I signed the log and returned the cache back to its home. The container was quite damaged, but for the moment relatively dry inside.

Have sent the CO all the details.

TFTC LouiseAnn and the unexpected adventure!
 
09-Jan-18
We quickly gathered the information required to calculate GZ and a quick search discovered the well hidden container. TFTC
 
13-Nov-17
The final coords were easily found.

09-Nov-17
This is my first of the Cleudo series. I'm not sure why I keep putting them off... I must pass most of them every week, if not every day! Cache was found in good condition with the clue inside. Thanks LouiseAnn for the series. I hope to grab some more!
 
15-Oct-17
On my way back into Melb, passing roughly through this area - must stop to grab 2 more clue caches!!
 
29-Aug-17
Thanks for the find! Turns out one us (totally not me) couldn't do basic maths. Which left us nearly spotted by muggles, hiding in bushes!

Easy find once we worked out how silly we (not me) were.

TFTC
 
29-Jul-17
Ah another piece of the puzzle done and getting closer to who did it. We were in the area and saw this wasn't too far, so we decided to grab it. Soon we had the cache and in good order. A few more clues....

Discovered a nice little area today. TFTC
 
16-Apr-17
Ok we now have one piece of the greater puzzle. This might take some time... Smile
 
12-Apr-17
This was a nice quick find on a lovely day for caching. My car was getting a nudge bar nearby, so I had a couple of hours to kill. What better way to do that then go caching.

Thanks to Louise-Ann for the cache.
 
12-Feb-17
Was an easy find in a lovely location. Looking forward to the rest of this series. I love the game.
 
09-Feb-17
The first cache in a few this morning where I was not muggled out, so nice to tick at least one off before heading into work. In the comfort of the air conditioned car, I obtained the waypoint information, then calculated where I needed to be. Off on foot, a likely location was identified and the container quickly found and retrieved... [^]

Name quickly added to the log and cache tucked back in place, I was on the return journey to the car. Quite surprised that not a single muggle approached from either direction during the hunt.

Cheers LouiseAnn.

Found it, thanks. Nice easy one

#536 - 8.15pm
A previous stake out of Mrs Peacock's given address revealed a another haunt she tended to frequent. Today was the day to catch her off guard and run some questions past her. There were several muggles who had to waited out before I could get a private moment with our person of interest. However, our little chat was soon interrupted by a message on the police radio, and then we were stumbled upon by another muggle. Further questions would have to wait. At least I got some answers. I reminded Mrs Peacock not to leave town before I returned to the station.

Thanks LouiseAnn for shedding a little more light on this case.

Ever find that once you start finding a series of caches you want to collect the whole set? I seem to be in that situation now with this series, not least because there's a mystery to be solved. Not that I took a massive detour--I was just around the corner when I noticed it on the map. Like those I've already found, this was a fairly quick affair. Almost got collected by a bike as I photographed the mystery clues, so that was unexpected thrill. At some point I'm going to have to refresh my memory of how Cluedo works innit. Thanks LouiseAnn!
 
06-Dec-16
Found, whilst on a slight detour, Tnsl, nice little hidey spot Smile

Found by Peter at 1705 hrs, we had been at Marian's mothers house doing some work in the garden, whilst having a rest I checked my GPSr for nearby caches. and came up with this one in her street. Got the data at WP1 and headed off towards GZ. A nice easy find TFTC.

Spent the day with half of daznjaneo picking up some solved puzzles and some needed series parts.
This was our first for the day. Lovely little walk. Nearly got muggled by an old man with the cutest little white doggie.
TFTC LouiseAnn. Looking forward to completing this series. Cool

Was great to get out and do some caching with Happy Pants after a busy morning.
After grabbing the required info for the cache we walked to Gz and found the very exposed cache.
Cheers for the cache.

Nice walk to a nice full cache. Spotted Bert the TB in the cache

With Zedaycee and Angelique Anja.

Found this one after aikido training (only 1 more until we have 31 days of consecutive caching) a nice easy multi for the day.

Saw Bert before Zedaycee took him!

28-Jan-16
Find #30 for my Multi-Month Challenge. How exciting! I've almost completed my very first challenge and have made some inroads into completing this series despite their scattered placement!
Once again, thanks for the dependable find LouiseAnn. This time there was not a soul about to interfere with the finding and replacement of the cache.
TNLNSL and visited a couple of personal TBs.
 
14-Jan-16
A nice quick multi to mark off one of our P366 squares for today. Thanks to the previous finder for hiding the container properly and covering it well. We first found one of this series back when we first started caching, so it's nice to come back to another section. TFTC
 
28-Dec-15
Tftc nice quick easy multi. Found with lukie1987 and geopartners
 
28-Dec-15
I'm out and about with the geowife and geobrother we are on the hunt for some mysteries and multi caches while it's a nice but not hot day today before we all head back to work. And after the Christmas Iv had I needed a day out.
 
10-Dec-15
Out for a walk in the local area, was able to complete this multi without anyone looking on. We are now a little closer to solving Cluedo.

there seems to be no issue here
 
07-Nov-15
Took a detour from the Gardiner's Creek Trail today to get a couple caches. This one was a fun easy multi. Everything in good condition.
Tftc
 
01-Nov-15
It seems some council work has been done here in recent months (as mentioned in previous logs), and the tree in question had a few less branches than expected. Oh, and it's a small sistema container, it helps to have that in the description to let people know what to look for. Nevertheless a good hide! TFTC Smile
 
24-Oct-15
Enjoy walk toward the cache.
Rehide it nicely after log it.
Thanks LouiseAnn for bring me here and cache.
 
23-Aug-15
Grabbed the data, then a very short stroll to GZ, where the cache was safely hidden. Cheers!
 
18-Aug-15
Took me a while to figure out the co-ords. The addition of some commas was helpful
 
10-Aug-15
Tftc! Quick and easy find!
 
20-Jul-15
We had started this one many months ago but were muggled out at GZ by some kids playing on the footpath. Today there was no one at GZ but unfortunately we could not locate the cache either.
We re read the cache page and found it had been moved and with no note is was back to the beginning and start over.
With the new coordinates we were soon at a different GZ and not long after were adding our name to the log.
Thanks LouiseAnn for showing us the area and this series of caches.
 
18-Jul-15
Find #4 today. I was a bit worried about the pruning around GZ but the cache is still safe and under cover, probably a little more exposed than originally intended. Collected all the clues that I can in this series for now. Will see what sense I can make of it and attempt an accusation!
Thanks LouiseAnn.
 
16-Jul-15
A nice little find! This bike path seems to be very popular go caches, if I'd realised I would have done it in one go! A quick bit of maths and I was at GZ. Some maintenance has been done by the council recently, but I found the cache nestled within some saw dust. Thanks Louise Ann for the hide, and I look forward to finding the rest of the clues and the killer!!!

Found by Mary & David at 1815. Our multi #10 for the day. Guess what we're aiming for this month? Gorgeous weather, and we have had a great day so far. We have had a Cluedo board game for many years. Seems like only yesterday when we had 3 teenagers at home and they all enjoyed the game. Hadn't realised just how many years it has been about. A nice walk to GZ and some interesting trees there, plus a few melodious magpies. Our thanks to LouiseAnn.
 
21-Mar-15
After finishing work nearby, and a change of plans, I decided to Multi cache my way southwest towards my next social event. Spotted this on the map and figured that this was a good a chance as any. Fixated on the wrong area for a few minutes before realizing that my gps wasn't quite at zero. Made the find quickly. Oops. Tftc
 
26-Feb-15
Thought I would combine a lunchtime walk with this multi. Found it pretty easily once at GZ but took far too long to sort out the co-ordinates initially! Cache was a little exposed so tried to ensure it was a little less noticeable for the casual passer-by. TFTC and this series LouiseAnn
 
07-Feb-15
Great cache! Tried this cache a while ago and could not find it. But came today and found it fairly easy! TFTC!!
 
23-Jan-15
Found with Ryanofoz. We quickly gathered the required information and headed toward G.Z. we both had a little look and gave up whilst we went and got a few caches a bit further down. We then came back to G.Z. on the way back and looked a little harder and found the cache. We hope to get around to doing the rest of this series soon. TFTC Smile
 
23-Jan-15
Found with Fuzzej after an earlier unsuccessful search. Looking forward to the rest of the Cluedo caches. Cheers
 
12-Jan-15
Another one of the Cluedo series completed and three more ways closer to the culprit. Done numerous training runs in the area but never realised, once again, that I was running past a cache. TFTC LouiseAnn.

This series is so cute. We were close by doing some other caches, and I couldn't resist finding another clue in the Mr Boddy mystery. My son was WAAAAYYY over caching by this stage, so with some promises of a slippery slide when we got home, I managed to coax him out of the car and to GZ. Thanks LouiseAnn, I look forward to finding more of this really great series.
 
03-Sep-14
The moment I saw the finale to this series, I got so excited about the idea! Then I saw where you'd hidden each piece of the puzzle and I love the idea even more. This is my first find from the series; the closest to my parents' home, and I cannot wait to find the rest and solve the mystery. Thanks for a clever cache LouiseAnn, a nice place for a walk and a quick find.
 
21-Aug-14
Found on at night. Earned the sightseer souvenir when I found it.
Took around 5 minutes to find. The GPS was a little bit off.

TFTC
 
13-Aug-14
Another clue in the series found.....this is fun! I wonder who did it???? TFTC
 
01-Aug-14
Find #344

Didn't have much luck caching earlier in the day for a variety of reasons so I decided to brave the worst of Melbourne weather in the early evening to try a couple of this Cluedo series. I did wonder about the sense of this plan whilst I drove through the hail with the temp gauge on the car reading sub 5 degrees. It had eased enough by the time I got to Burwood to grab the required info and a short while later I trotted off to GZ. No muggles out in this weather (just the crazy geocacher) so I arrived at GZ and soon had the cache in hand. TNLNSL and back to the warmth of the car before heading to the next port of call in this series. Thanks for the cache LouiseAnn and it's good to be off and running to solve this nasty business of the murder.
 
09-Jul-14
Third time lucky!
First time, the co-ordinates were wrong. CO gave me the correct calculation for latitude:
S37° 51.C(C+E)(A-C)
Second time, geo-kid had been messing with the GPS and changed the datum, so all the coordinates were wrong!
Third time, (correct GPS) took us straight there.
TFTC
 
07-Jul-14
Had a look for this one this morning.
Found the pole and numbers easily, but WP was in someone's front garden!
Checked and double checked our calculations, but to no avail.
 
15-Jun-14
Thanks to the info from Team KSBTJ, I was able to visit the cache today and relocate it to a new position. I have re-jigged the puzzle to reflect the new location. Thanks again to Team KSBTJ
 
08-Jun-14
I found Cluedo Peacock some time ago. This morning I was walking our dog past the hiding site and saw the exposed cache container. The previous hiding spot has been chopped down. The container is fine, but the contents are now sadly wet and will need some new swaps. I have re hidden the container about 5m west (my guess as no gps on me at the time). It will be fine there til LouiseAnn is able to do some maintenance. It is still worth having a go to find this cache as the joy is in the multi Smile
 
11-May-14
After visiting Mum, which is always a sad time especially today nothing better way to brighten my day but to find a few caches. Stopped to do the one close by but hive of activity at the Scout hall so ventured down the lane to pick this one up . Miss Peacock was always my favourite character in this game, she was always so beautiful to me back when i played . Thanks for this little diversion and fun hide.
 
26-Apr-14
Yet another price of the puzzle gathered. Hopefully I have enough to solve the mystery. As for this cache, a great little multi secluded well out of the way. TNLNSL. TFTC. Kems

Find # 3713
Streak: 257 days

An after work find for me today to continue my streak. I kept thinking about this cache during multi month as I had previously gathered the info for GZ but ran out of time to go find it. Anyway, a multi for April is OK too Big Grin Nice easy find once the muggles cleared off the track and another clue for the series final gathered. Picked up the Multi Trackable.

Thanks to LouiseAnn for the cache. TNLN

Took a few country boys to the burbs to find a few caches. One had the gps and we went to the wrong pole. Started walking down the path toward the final when I rechecked the notes to see something didn't make sense. Went back, found the right pole, and soon after made a quick find. TFTC. Now off to look at a whereigo, something we don't have down our way.

Today was a bit cold but mild at the same time. EpicPotatoes had a bit of humour in the car. But still quite funny as well as Kier0006.

Back in Melbs and I noticed this one was close by to where I was working for the day. A short walk and a quick find (for a multi!). Left a multi-specific trackable -tftc
