|
|
Hi, dear Scotsmans! I'm from Russia.
Right now we are playing game named Encounter. On the bridge in Aberdeen organizer placed a code, must be some numerical combination (pattern - EN***). The mission is - to find someone in other country and ask him to help find that code. There are 5 countries total. We need to find someone also in Italy, Switzerland and two other countries we didn't solved yet.
Here is a bridge with a code
Location in google maps
Post your questions here! Your help will be appreciated!

They are far away from Aberdeen itself? It is here.
If they have some friends there or friends of their friends - maybe somebody can find for us a code on that bridge? |

Yes, somewhere at the bridge. Must not be masked way too high. It can be EN473 or something like. Letters "EN" - it's 100%, digits - this is what major there.
Probably somewhere near the ends of bridge, near water, but can't tell. I don't know where it is exactly  |

One believes that "Won't" would be closer to the mark, unfortunately. Otherwise, surely ONE of our other contributors would have posted here by now. You should have realised it wouldn't be me by now ... and tried elsewhere since this lot are not going to be bothered.
Good luck elsewhere.  |

I can't find a Scotsman either  |

| HI nethex, i am from Aberdeen unfortunately I am at university at the moment in Dundee but i can tell you precisely where that code is for anyone else who is interested in finding it. The first picture I am not sure of but the second picture is of a bridge in a place called Duthie Park, the bridge is located at the south west of the park hope this helps. its the only bridge that is in the park. |

Hooray! Someone with a bit of sense at last.
Nethex, the postcode for Duthie Park, Aberdeen is AB10. If you need any more than that, all you need to do is google for postcodes for Aberdeen locate a map that shows exactly where the bridge is. Unfortunately, locating postcodes6 online is something you have to pay according to the sites I looked at ... and I'm sorry ... but I'm not parting with any of my money on your search. But, them's the breaks!
You're on your own now! |
