Clues for Passwords.

[Geocacher81]

Ok, I am new to this and I have been trying to read through everything I can to get my facts straight.

If you solve a riddle and figure out a password, you then go find the Pyramid and tell someone the password? Is that how it works? If I figure out the password... how do i know who has the Pyramid, or is it just a coin I have to find?

And plus I don't have the little metal key, I have to wait for it to arrive via mail. Does that mean I can't start trying to solve the riddles...do I need it to open the Pyramid?

Almost right!

The riddle should tell you both the location and the password. You then visit the location and (hopefully) find the pyramid there, and tell the pyramid keeper the password. If you get it right then you can open the pyramid with your key (yes you do need the key) and find a gold coin inside (if it hasn't been taken already). If the gold coin has gone, then you won't need the password and you will just get a silver coin instead (unless you choose not to, but go for another pyramid instead).

Meanwhile, to save traveling to the location, you can use the online password checker up to 2 times per week.

Hope that helps, and good luck!

I will not have the metal key for a while. I have a strong feeling I can get this one. If the original ISIS I came with a key, does that not put me at a disadvantage due to the fact it will take weeks to get the key to the USA. And I haven't even heard from Sonic Warp to confirm that it is on the way. There has got to be some loop hole in this.

What if I just bring my ISIS I with me and open it so that the person can send in my Key number that is in it?

trust me, we have all had strong feelings about a password.......but good luck to you. I would be tempted to use the password checker if I were sure, that way if it is wrong you needn't worry about when the key will arrive!

The pyramid has a real lock, which requires a real (i.e. physical) key to open it.
A number engraved in an isis does not do the trick.

If you have the location and password right (and confirmed by password checker) but you have no key, then contact Andrew directly. If there is still gold in your pyramid, Andrew may be willing to arrange something for the first pyramid in over 14 months to be opened !

Good Luck!

Good deal. I will do just that.
