 		Wow, kind of sad that at first glance, I was thinking "contra code"....

apparently any time I see arrows, I do that.

 		Not much of a spoiler (as it actually does not spoil anything...it is more of a trout really... Trout

This is a plot of the above coordinates:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):

If 0 = empty space and we substitute 0 for move number and if first position = 1 then:
00000002017000004
00000006800000050
00000000000000300
assuming NSEW = 1 move in each direction and diagonal arrows 1 move in each perpendicular direction required to produce the diagonal move...(eg NW = 1 move north and 1 move west)

Therefore the net movement = one South-West (? Address, one southwest street?

Also, reading the plotted numbers gives: 2 17 4 68 5 3


Of coure, it could just be secret moves for mortal kombat characters....

LOL, I just read through my post! I think I need more sleep; I'm loosing a grip on reality! Screwy

 		Hint:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Look beneath your fingers.


Solve:
Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Simple keyboard walk, starting with T. The down-left followed by 8 lefts between 4, 5 and 6 meant it could only be one position.

Comes to 'TEMPLARS'


After some of the Hollywood bastardizations of 'treasure hunts' I'm not so sure I would agree with your statement that they figure into any great one. I've seen plenty of great treasure hunts that don't have them at all.

And you could probably just keep these in one thread Kitch, not sure if lots of separate threads are needed for bite sized puzzles like these.
